Meat Animal Decrease.

Shortage of meat animals in the
United States as strikingly demon
strated by comparative figures made
public today by the department of
agriculture, showing that there are
nine less beef cattle, seven less sheep
and three less hogs now for each 100
persons in the country than there
were in 1910. This means that it
would take 1925, 900 more meat
cattle, sheep and swine to give the
present population the same supply
that the census of 1910 showed to
exist.
While the population of the country
is estimated to have increased from
81 OF, 900 to 9s.848 900 in the past
three years, the number of beef cattle
had decreased 1919 per cent and of
sheep SO per cent. The number of
swine increased slightly 1.S per cent,
but it did not keep up with the pro-

portional growth of population.
In spite of the reduced number it is
estimated that the value of cattle in
the country increased from 1884,
600 900 in 1910 to 1 1880. 0s7 900 on Jan
uary /.
''This increase in value, however"
the departments statement pointed
out, "does not necessarily mean that
farmer or stock raiser is making
more. If any profit. On the contrary,
the cost of production probably has
increased more rapidly than the in
crease in the selling price thereof.
Producers of farm products are
the last to receive any benefit from
high prices paid by consumers, yet
they are among the first to increase
production if there is a prospect of
realizing better returns.
The fact that there is present
shortage of nearly 10 ,O0o, 900 meat ami
mails in the United States since the
census of 1910, indicates clearly that
the business is not profitable to pro-
ducers.
The scarcity of meat animals is at
tributed by department experts to the
enroachment of farms upon range ter
ritory, lack of a proper range leasing
law, shortage of the corn and forage
crop in Kansas, Nebraska aud Okla
homa, increased value of land and
higher cost of labor and stock feed.
