study it, and many will study it with
the greatest interest, the causes for
the higher meat prices with facts and
figures. 1t makes it apparent that We
have to produce more cattle. eat less
meat, or pay higher prices for it.
1t is then problem to be solved
not by legislation, but by co-opera-
tion between the farmers and the
bankers and other business men.
The prosperity of this great North
west is closely linked with the de-
velopment of the livestock industry.
The days of the great cattle ranges
are past and the possibilities for live
stock on the ordinary farm of diversi-
fled crops are shown by the great
state Of Iowa. She leads all other
states, according to the United States
census reports, in the value of the
livestock on her farms. The figures
were 93,000,000 in 1910, which
Is about 25 per cent greater than
even the vast state of Texas can
boast, with all its range country. In
cidentally, it mny be mentioned that
recent reports of the Department of
Agriculture give Iowa the first place
in the value Of all farm products, at
1858, 100000 per annum, Illinois
being second at $4,000, ,000.--Edi-
torial in Commercial West.

Livestock Is the Money Maker

|, binations, Notwithstanding that is
what the Federal Government began
to look for when first the fact became
apparent that there was not meat
enough to go around at old prices 1t
is not combination of cattlemen or
butchers. 1t is the inevitable working
out of economic laws Legislation can't
grow cattle.
Insofar as we can educate people to
the situation and influence the pro-
ducers, we may check the trend and
even restore former conditions in part.
But laws cannot bring it about and If
the years of the immediate future show
the trend continuing, even higher
prices than any yet heard of will have
to be paid by meat eaters. The simple
fact Is that the country. for several
years, has not been producing meat
enough to go around.
Marketing of calves is one Of the
great evils. How to check it is a
problem. At South ST. Paul. for ex-
ample, Of total livestock receipts for
the last three years, nearly 25 per cent
has been calves. The farmer who is
dairyman finds it less troublesome to
sell the calves. This has been a factor
Of adverse effect for several years. 1t
Is likely to be especially bad now that
prices of farm products. corn espe-
cially, are so high. There will be less
inducement to the farmer to feed his
stock.
I am not pessimistic on the outlook
On the contrary l think much can be
done. l look for the recent Govern
ment report to take its place as one
Of the most important of its lind. 1t
makes plain to all who may care to

n NE need be much of seer
~ or prophet to foresee the tre-
mendous demand the world will
make on America for food supplies
during the next year or two. The
problem is how to meet the demand.
The high price of 'yheat now ruling
and likely to prevail for some time
will boost the wheat acreage. The
Winter wheat acreage already sown
establishes a new high record, with
nearly 40,O00,000 acres, and no
doubt the Spring acreage also will
be proportionately as large.
But wheat-growing is more or less
of speculative business on account
of weather uncertainty, so the farm
ers who wish to play safe will con-
tinue to depend upon diversified
crops. and those who go in strong
for livestock and dairying will be
the surest of good profits. The prices
of livestock are high and bound to
continue so for some time, regardless
of all efforts to increase the supply.
The bankers throughout the North
west have now been active for sew
eral years in the work Of promoting
the livestock industry and helping
the farmers to get more and higher
grade stock.
Summing up the livestock problem,
w. e. Briggs, yice-president of the
Northwestern National Bank of Min
