Many bther farmers in the com-

expressed the belief that the plane

ninety years ago. There a boy, Gustavus Swiit. who later

which he sold his meat, was a vivid red in color, to be

Let’s Weigh the Evidence
j Your scales can be a valuable ally to your judging eye!
For years livestock breeders have kept weight and per- •
' formance records,, as well as’ pedigrees. Now many
commercial producers are taking a tip from them. Re-
cording birtfi weights and weaning weights of calves,
There is lots of evidence of the value of-your scales
in helping your eye. Here are just a few examples: ',
1) At Purdue University they weighed 7.554 pigs from
. 784 litters. Here’s what they found. Pigs that weighed,
THREE pounds at birth averaged 28 pounds at wean-
ing. But pigs that weighed TWO pounds at birth .?
, weighed only 21 pounds at weaning. Of the heavy pigs,
77% lived to weaning age, against only 49% of the light *
pigs. And right up to market weight, the heavier pigs
had a higher rate of gain.
2) The U. S. D. A. has kept a 14-year record on'beef
calves. Birth weights vary from 40 to 109 pounds.
» Their finding: heavier-than-average calves reach a 500-'
pound weaning weight and 90()-ix>und marketing weight
' faster than lignter-than-average calves. You know what
that means: fjess feed. More and quicker profit.
3) Sheep Experiment Station inen at Dubois, Idaho,
find they can use the scales to select breeding stock for
greater production in the future. Their ewe lambs,
4 which are heavier than average at weaning time, prove
to be the beet producers in total lamb weight and fleece
weights.
4) At the University of Wyoming they divided dairy
heifers into light and heavy weight groups. The “heavies” .
I weighed 24 pounds more at birth. But at six months
they averaged 43 pounds me—, \mu animal.
You need a good “judging eye" io tell you whether
an auiiual has good conformation, is true to type, etc.
1 But the evidence of recorded weights does point strongly
to A general rule which can help your eye:
Keep br buy aninMls heaviest at birth or weaning!

"Propaganda peace offensives of
this nature are designed to play
upon this desire for peace with
the real purpose of weakening the
position of the United States."
Marshall also told the news-
men that the United tSstes is de-

for it He said the United States
still looks to the neutral, powers

’ Both men were no doubt in-

' or the explosion. The bodies were ]
badly mangled and the skulls of i
. both crushed. All of the clothing
was burned off the passenger,
while fragments of clothing re- 1
mained on the pilot.
The pilot was sitting on a
cushion and that protected his
billfold from the fire. His pilot's
license, automobile license, sea-
man’s card, and Arabia temple
membership card were still intact,
along with $18.00 in currency.
No papers could be, found on the
• othef body. A few badly burned
1 coins were found near him.
The'licenses revealed that Mil-
ner, the pilot, was born in Colmes-
neil, Tfexas, April 22, 1925, and
that he received his pilot’s license
in July, 1947. One card gave his
