BEEF CALVES PRODUCED
ON 4 VERY CLOSE MARGIN

In the bulletin Beef production in
Colorado" Charles /. Bray gives the
following interesting information:
Beef calves are produced on close
margin of profit. The only source of
income from the beef COW is her calf.
The value of the calf at weaving time
must cover the cost of keeping the COW
for year, depreciation. sire service,
interest on investment, rent, and
losses and leave a margin for the
owner. This is true, whether one is
producing calves to sell at weaning
time or to sell as two-year-old feeders.
If one cannot produce calves as cheap
ly as he can buy them at weaning
time, it will pay him to buy rather
than breed. By cutting out the breed
ing herd altogether, this would put
all available capital and available land
into handling steers, a practice fol-
lowed in many parts of Colorado.
Usually it is better to raise calves
where conditions are favorable for
taking care of them when dropped.
Economy demands that grazing be
made use of to the fullest extent; that
where winter feeding has to be done
the feeds shall be of a cheap nature,
and that no more be fed than neces-
sary to keep the stock in thrifty con-
dition. On the other hand it is not
economy to let stock get thin in win
ter for lack of feed. Cows will raise
more calves and better calves, and
there will be fewer losses of the cows
are kept up in weight. While econo-
my must be kept in mind at all timse,
it must not be carried to the point OF
neglect in care and feed. Chear
shelters will produce results rs well
as expensive buildings and should be
put up wherever needed.
