$50. and Omaha is not much be

the current pressing demand for
feeding cattle is the large amount
OF corn in the country, which must
be marketed in meat form or not al
all The real reason for the firm
undertone that characterixes the
demand for feeding stock is the
worldwide scarcity OF good cattle
