Hello Again!
We are glad to be back with
the Swift page of information
and ideas. What did we do
all summer? Well, among
other things, we visited with
farmers, ranchers, agricul-
tural editors and educators. And we rounded
up the facts we need to make these messages
interesting and useful to you producers. As
we said away back in 1944—"This is your
page, and we welcome suggestions from our
readers.” We still do. Just write to me at Swift
& Company, Chicago 9, Illinois . . . And
when you’re in Chicago, drop in and see us.
LET’S SUPPORT OUR "MEAT TEAM”—You
know, times change—but some folks don’t
change with the times. I’m thinking of the
type of man who always thinks that someone
is getting the best of him in business. He sells
a load of steers. No matter what his return,
he’s not satisfied—the packer, the commis-
sion man, the retailer—somebody else always
gets a "bigger slice.” But, during this past
summer, I talked to a lot of people about the
livestock-mea’t industry and our mutual prob-
lems. And I found a refreshing, encouraging
attitude—"Sure, we got problems. Who hasn’t
these days? But if producer, packer and re-
tailer work together as the 'meat team,’ we’ll
work things out.. .” It’s just good business
to have a decent regard for the contributions
made by other members of your team. I hope
you have followed the "Meat Team” adver-
tisements of the American Meat Institute
and will talk to your neighbors about them.
FACT CONFIRMED—Out in the West, when-
ever I passed a town with a local meat-
packing plant, 1 thought, "This town, out here
where there is lota of livestock, is well served
by that local plant. But what about the dis-
tant cities filled with meat eaters and no near-
by livestock production to speak of?” 1 know
for a fact that meat has to travel an average
of more than 1,000 miles to reach those con •
sumers. The only' way they can get meal is
through the low-cost processing and market-
ing services provided by nationwide meat
packers, like Swift & Company.

Supplemental Mineral for
Wintering Range Ewes
by William H. Burkitt
Montana State College
Thirteen mineral elements are
known to be necessary for nor-
mal functioning of an animal body. However, this
does not mean that all 13 must be supplied in a
mineral mixture. Many of them are present, under
usual feeding conditions, in sufficient amounts for
breeding ewes. Those lacking in Montana include
sodium and chlorine (salt), iodine, phosphorus, and
possibly cobalt.
Lack of sufficient iodine in the ration of pregnant,
ewes results in lambs being bom with "big neck”
(goiter). Thin wool in lambs may also result. If
dead or weak lambs have shown "big neck” or thin
wool at birth in past years, stabilized iodized salt
should definitely be fed the ewes this winter.
^Phosphorus deficiency may exist in wintering
range ewes, particularly if there is little or no sup-
plemental feeding. Abortions and weak lambs may
result from deficient phosphorus. Pregnant ewes
should have from 0.16% to 0.18% phosphorus in
their feed. Many grass hays and mature range
grasses contain leas than 0.15% phosphorus and
some contain as low as 0.04% phosphorus. Bone
meal, defluorinated rock phosphates, and mono-
sodium phosphate are satisfactory sources of phos-
phorus. Palatability and consumption may be im-
proved by mixing with salt.
Cobalt is believed to be needed by micro-
organisms in the paunch. A lack results in loss of
appetite, less feed consumption, and eventually
starvation. A possible cobalt deficiency may be
guarded against by mixing 1 ounce of cobalt salt
with each 100 pounds of stock salt. Cobalt carbonate,
chloride, or sulfate are all sat isfactory. (Editor's note:
The principles of nutrition discussed above apply to
most kinds of livestock and in all parts of the country .)
age price for all cattle is moving in the
V? opposite direction.
The high price is explained I y the fact
tl that during the fall we usually have the
t shortest supply of ( tie year of well finished,
long fed cattle. Brisk demand for this short
supply naturally will force the price up.
The lower average price resulta from
the annual move to market of hupo num
bers of grass-fed cattle.
About 20 per cent of all the cattle and
lambs slaughtered during a whole year
must be handled in September and Octo-
ber. Meat from llxeae animals being slaugh-
tered any given day generally is on the din-
ner table in less than 14 days. «
Folks aren’t likely to have any more
money to spend on food during the fall
months than in February, when fewer
meat animals are being marketed.
Since beef and lamb is largely a fresh
meat business, there’s a lot of meat to eat
during the fall months. Consequently, since
consumers have no more money to spend,
meat prices have to be lowered. And that’s
just what happens, as it usually does with
an increased amount of meat to be sold and
no increase in the amount of money with
which to buy it. These lower meat prices
are most noticeable, of course, in the large
consuming centers where surplus supplies
always can be moved at a price.
Naturally, then, livestock prices follow
meat prices. Producers should keep in
mind that the prices they receive for their
livestock are governed by what the packer can get for
the meat and the by-products. This is perfectly dem-
onstrated, as we have pointed out above, when
the price for one kind of cattle, in short supply, is
moving up al the same time that prices of other
cattle, in heavy supply, are moving down.

FKEE! The Story of Poultry
Children and grownups, too—here's
another booklet in Swift’s popular
Elementary Science Series. Like the
others in the series (on Soils, Plants,
Meat Animalsand Grass), "The
St' ry of Poultry” (Booklet E) gives
many interesting questions. Do you know—
Wher<> the first chickens came from?
Which breed of poultry is native to America?
How the shell gets around an egg?
You’ll find the answers to these and dozens of other
questions in "The Story of Poultry.” Lots of pic-
tures—easy-to-read words. Write for your copy to-
day and show this notice to your school teacher. Yes,
there are free copies for every kid in your class, if re-
quested by your teacher. If you'd like the other

ATTEND FUNERAL

Mr. and Mrs. John Cernoch

in Temple Wednesday.
Just a half a pound of your 250-lb. pig is
phosphorus. This seems a small amount.
But without it, your pig would die. And
there are other minerals just as vital to
livestock. Some they need in quite large
amounts ... calcium and sodium as well as
phosphorus. Others we call trace elements.
These they need in very small amounts...
such as cobalt, iron, copper and manganese.
But your animals do need these trace ele-
ments. The people at the agricultural col-
leges have proved that past all doubt. Some
minerals are a "must” if you want to raise
healthy, fast-gaining cattle. That goes for
lambs and hogs, too. For example, these
men find that grass and grains in Dade
County, Florida, are short of copper and
iron. Clallam County, Washington, needs
iodine to check goiter. They know that San
Diego County, California, hasn’t enough
phosphorus. In Aroostook County, Maine,
the scarce mineral is cobalt. Ranchers and
farmers in these four comers of the country
have this problem. Their feeds and forages
are short of one or more vital minerals. Many
other areas share the problem, including
parts of the great Com Belt.
* But you ask, "How can I spot animals
which suffer from mineral shortage?” It’s
not too easy. If the lack is serious, your
stock may have rickets, "big neck,” anemia
or other ailments. But there are some early
symptoms you can spot. These are bone chew-
ing, loss of appetite, slow gains, rough and
scrubby coats. Or just a general unthrifty con-
dition gives you the clue. If you start feeding a
mineral which contains the essential trace ele-
ments, you may bring them around fast. But if
this doesn’t work, then you should consult your
veterinarian, county agent or agricultural college.
The common mineral deficiencies in your area
are known. By feeding mineral-balanced rations,
you can correct these lacks. Or you can build up
the mineral content of the soil. Either, or both,
of these will help you grow healthier livestock,
at a lower cost.
