Why RAISE HEIFERS WHILE THERE
IS MONEY in VEAL?

The editor Of Farm and Fitesi2e. the
national farm paper published in Spring
field, Ohio, asks, III the current issue of
his publication, who can make farmers
raise heiters when they can make more
money vealing them. He saws this in
answer to people who are demanding a
law restraining the killing of heifer calves
until the supply rises. lie goes on to
say:
Show us the mistake from a money
point of view i'll killing the heifers, and
Wei listen; but draw club on us for the
purpose of making us over into unwilling
dry-nurses for heifers, and Wen trv re-
versing It on the man who draws it.
Raising calves is not an amusement-it's s
a business. Producing food for the peo-
pie of the world isn't an esthetic matter
or duty. It's cold matter of making
a living on farm. If it loses us money
to veal the heifer calves show us the loss
and we'll thank you. Try to make us
grow them, and we'll fight. Nearly half
the American farmers are tenants who
are liable to have to look for a new home
next spring. These men don't know
whether they are going to be so situated
as to make any effort to build up a herd
Fix that up for us. please.
Others have their farms so stocked that
The calves have to be disposed of. And |
others are just plain hard up and need |
he veal-money. Please remedy these /
hings before you begin to talk of coer-
i've laws. And all the time don't fail 10 |
'oint ont the profits in keeping the heifers
IS against vealing them. That kind of
ak will always command an audience
mong farmers. -
