The wagon was under a pecan tree,
Charlie said he would make Ills

from under the trees, because lie did-

a good Idea, and we would mnke our

/^\NCE again the folks who feed the nation are harvest-
V_y ing one of the great crops of our history, and the
record-breaking harvest of these war years has been pro-
duced by fewer people maintaining top production <>n
more and more acres.
The progress that has been made in agriculture in recent
years is almost unbelievable—corn yields of well over 100
bushels an acre, a rarity a few years ago, are now common;
the production of ton-litters of hogs in less than 6 months
after farrowing is no great problem now; hens that lay
more than 200 eggs a year are not hard to find; and there
are dairy cows with records of well over 30,000 pounds of
milk and 1,000 pounds of butterfat annually.
All of these advances in the production of fond have
played an important part in the building of America to its
present greatness and to victory in the war.
Hack in the days of Georg® Washington, one farm family
was able to produce enough food for itself and one other
family. Today each farm family in America can produce
ils own food and enough for 19 other families. This tells the
story of the American harvest. And it is a story unique in
world history.
Wo at Swiff & Company salute our farmer and rancher
friends for their great achievements and we are proud to
haVe had n part in the preparation and distribution of the
fruits of the harvest to Americans everywhere.

THE EDITOR’S COLUMN
When the war l* gan, Swift & Company
adopted the following wartime policy:
"W< will ro-opemte In the fullest extent
with the V. S. (iovrrnment to hip win
thr war. We will do everything possible
to safeguard the high quality of our
products. Despite Wartime difficulties,
UK will make every effort to distribute
available civilian supplies to insure a
fair share for all customers evetyu here. ”
l Jnderthe present conditions, meat packers
At), ferr/i 'rand mty

supper/'
know that there is no profit
advantage in shipping meat
long distances as compared
with selling it nearby. OPA
regulations sot prices, by
zones and areas, that meat
packers may charge for l**if,
lamb, veal and pork. The
United States is divided into ten zones for
beef, lamb and veal and five for pork. Bach
has ils own base price for each kind of meat
Additions to the base price are allowed for
transportation and local delivery. These al-
lowances are the very minimum and in nviny
instances do not cover the actual cost of trans-
portation, icing, and shrinkage.
Consequently, meat packers are better off
when they sell < lose to their producing plants.
In general, the net money they receive is
greater the closer to the plant the wifi- is made.
Rut despite this, Swift & Company has volun-
tarily adhered to its wartime policy of fair <lis
tribution. Starting in Julv 1945, all meat
packers were required by OPA regulations to
distribute their meats to the same areas they
did the first three months of 1944.

DO STEER CALVES GAIN FASTER?
Do male domestic animals grow faster and reach a
greater weaning weight than females? This question
is the basis of on interesting experiment conducted
with beef cattle hv Marvin Roger and J. H. Knox,
New Mexico, A Ar NT '*
They kept record* of weaning weights of Hereford
calves from the Experiment Station range herd from
1936through 1943 Most of the calves Were dropped
in April of each year and all lots were weaned at ap-
proximately the same time each year, in October
and November, depending on the feral supply Hnd
Other factors. The sexes were not separated until
nml the hUl* ralve" Werp castrated
The records reveal that of 419 steer and 444 heifer
calves the steers averaged 443 pounds and the heif
ers 411 pounds at weaning age The calves of ] >
sires were kept, track of and in all cases the steers
averaged heavier than the heifers.
It was also determined that, except for the first
two years when the number of calves was small the

SOFT CORN INTO HARD CASH
Com that gets "rooked” by front before it matures ia still
valuable feed, especially for cattle. Here are a**veral ways to
turn aoft, com into hard cash, listed in the order of their value
to the feeder: (a) Make ear-corn silage, (b) Feed ears with
stalks, chopped or ahredded. (c) Turn cattle and hogs into
standing com. (d) I^n ve in field and pick ears aa needed rather
than risk apoilage in storage.
Three main precautiona in feeding aoft com are: (a) Change
to soft, corn ration gradually, (b) Feed a protein supplement,
(c) Feed before freezing weather, if possible.
We ll be gied to tell von where to get
