Making Money with Beef

calves will be raised and the feed
for them will be grown, rs far as
possible, on the farm. 1t is pre-
dicted that tho shortage Of beef ami
mails will compel other packing firms
also to become producers of meat
animals. II they can see money in
the business, why should not farm
ers? viii the farmers sit idly at
home and allow packers to come out
into the country and beat them at
their own farming game? Some will,
and some will take the hint and be-
gin to breed and stock UP to meet
the present urgent demands for
good beef animals. The general
farmer ought to be in position to
grow and finish beef cattle cheaper
than packing firms can. Time will
tell.
OF late years the price Of corn has
advanced even greater proportion
ately than meat animals. Many
who fed their grain to live stock
few years ago now sell the grain
direct. This, no doubt, is one OF
the greatest reasons why farmers
have decreased their live stock oper-
ations. They can secure more cash
in hand for their grain and hay on
the open market than they can real
ize for them through beef cattle
feeding. Present gains are greater
through straight grain farming
They do not stop to consider the
future.
The Profitable Side.
with good beef breeds and the
best of handling and with balanced
ratlons, the net profit on a single
!, finished steer is but $40 to $15, Of
ten less. The average farmer con-
, siders that he had worked for moth
ing when he puts 500 in feeds into
, steer that will sell for only Sl10.
- But the profitable side Of beef grow
! ing, or the growing and feeding Of
| any animals on the farm, comes
4 through marketing the homegrown
p feeds through the animals in con-
! densed form and the securing Of
8 manure as valuable by-product.
o Considering the future good Of the
n farm, the farm owner can well af-
G ford to put 500 in feeds into q
y beef steer that sells at maturity fol
:, only 800.
n In this way he has received full
o cash market price for his feeds with
out hauling them to market, and ir
l. addition he has received In the
}. noighborhood Of from $40 to S25 II
+ manure, which Is banked in the soil

Foolish Trading"

AS producers and builders, the
American people excel all previous
civilization and we are a present
day marvel in business efficiency,
but in dealing with foreign countries
we are a sorry lot of traders. Ever
since VIM. Penn traded the Indians
a handful of trinkets for what is
now the State of Pennsylvania, the
American people have been selling
their birthright to foreigners for a
mess of pottage, so to speak.
We export over $5OOOO,0OO of
cattle and their products per an
mum, which feeds the nations of
Europe, and our American heiress-
es spend a similar sum in buying
and maintaining counts, dukes and
titled peerages. These foreign no
blemen are, as a rule, absolutely
worthless-in fact become a perpet.
ual liability-for it costs more mon
ey to operate and keep them in re-
pair than it does to run our cotton
mills. European royalty puts the
black sheep of its families on the
block and our rich American girls
buy them and we virtually exchange
railroads, wheat fields and millions
of dollars worth of products of farm,
mine and factory for titled paupers
who could not be resold for any
sum. 1t does not require foreign
treaties. a fleet of war vessels OF
tariff revision to stop this enormous
loss. 1t needs only common sense
in the homes of the rich.
We export $18.OOOOOO of lumber
and timber, and American tourists
spend a similar amount in motor
ing over Europe and sight seeing in
foreign lands although the most en-
chanting scenes of the world are on
the American continent. ~
