Favorable Outlook
For Livestock

A considerable increase in hay pro-
duction next fall, and a corn acre
age about the same as in 1924 are
recommended by the United States
Department of Agriculture in the
second section of its annual outlook
report released today.
Beef cattle prices this year should
average somewhat higher than last
year. and those for sheep and wool
should be at least on a par with those
of 1924, the report says.
Dairymen are urged to make no
further expansion in their industry.
Higher egg prices may be expected
during the season of flush produc-
ton this year than last, but poultry
prices may be lower.
Hog producers. the report says,
ENTER 1926 with is per cent fewer
hogs than a year ago and there is
every indication that prices during
the next Is months will be higher
than at any time since 1920. Six
to eight million fewer pigs will be
born this spring than last spring.
Fewer sows will farrow next fall
than narrowed last fall if producers
respond to the unfavorable relation
of corn and hog prices as they have
done in the past.
While the 1924 corn crop will

probably be well cleaned up an in.
creased acreage in 1925 does moi
appear advisable in view of the in.
Dictated reduction in the feeding de.
mand. Stocks of old corn on farms
are likely to be smaller than usual
in the beginning of the new crop veal
1925, but it appears hat not more
than an average crop will be re-
CURED to supply the needs of the
country for both feed and CONNER
cial purposes.
prices for beef cattle for 1925
should average somewhat higher
than for 1924. The industry is grad,
ually working into a nor favorable
position due to the relation of beef
to competing commodities especially
pork; improved industrial conditions,
and in nc small measure to the cattle
mans own sacrifices. Market re-
ceipts will probably be somewhat
smaller than in 1924. All conditions
indicate that the longtime outlook
for the industry is Eel more favor
able.
Advises Against Expansion in
Dairying.
Further expansion in dairying in
1925 seems inadvisable. A recovery
in prices of dairy products could
hardly be expected should the num-
Der of milk cows be further increased.
Domestic production appears ade-
quate, and the foreign dairy stu
alton is such as to keep world mar
ket prices low and thus limit the
height to which our butter prices
can rise without bringing in foreign
butter.
Favorable Outlook for Sheep and
Wool.
Prospects for the sheep industry
in 1925 appear favorable. The world
wool outlook and the prospective
meat situation in this country prom
Use prices for 1925 at least on a par
with those of 1924. There does not
appear to be any immediate danger
of overproduction, as the increase
in the number of sheep has as yet
been only slight.
Outlook for Poultry
THE outlook of the poultry indus
try during 1925 from the standpoint
of market egg prices is favorable

NATRONA FALLS
DOWN IN STATE
PRISON RECORD
(By Arnold B. Larson)

Just because Natrona county has
been the PaavO Nurmi Of Wyoming
industry, wealth, growth and popu-
lation that's not the sign that 1t can't
be beat In some things.
To prove it is the biennial report
recently issued by the state board of
charities and reform which hands
Laramie county first place in the
number of lockstep representatives at
Rawlins. This county, though is not
so terribly Outdistanced for it has
80 wearers Of stripes-if they do
wear stripes-in Wyoming p%eniten-
tiary, or but seven fewer than the
total credited to the county around
Cheyenne.
1t appears now that Casper is de-
veloping a tremendous second wind
in this race to cop all records. re-
CARELESS Of what they are, and it is
not at all improbable that Natrona
county will be n dozen laps or so
ahead of Laramie county when the
1926 biennial report comes out of
the capitol building. There is no
lions point toward such an achieve
ment, considering the underground
rumbles that are heard here.
With such a prospect in view. local
citizens may look at. it. perhaps. in
the light Of an alienation of the dis
tress caused by the waiting for an
other decennial census to establish
Natrona county's rightful and long
overdue representation in the state
legislature. BY sending a sufficient
ly large delegation to the barred in
stitution in Carbon county, it can
at least show the world that local
population warrants more of its 40
day-and-night men at Cheyenne.
Just a moment there! The page
has been turned yer and oh, grief!
Natrona county lacks n convict of
being in second place. Sweetwater
county has that distinction with 40
inmates who were sent there from
within her borders. We hardly
dare say: That's not a distinction
anyway" for there are those who
will be heard to caustically reply:
apple sauce" - meaning, Sour
grapes"
Whatever regrets may be suffer-
ed by the proud home guards, their
%weepings. w~ailings and g%nashings Of
teeth are as nothing compared with
the anguish hat goes up from the
taxpayers of Sublette, Washable,
and NlODrara counties. Eacn
of these subdivisions of the state
contributes its share toward the up
keep OF the penal palace at Rawlins,
and yet, and yet, not one OF these
four counties has a single nan there.
Though they have resorted to every
tactic to get their moneys worth
out OF the pen, they have not beer
able to do so during the past two
years. They have been paying for
reservations they have been unsuc-
cessful in filling.
But. to get back to Rawlins. and
on the inside: II you have never
been there you, of course. have
missed nothing except working in
a shirt factory. For all you know.
you may even now be encased in
a cotton chemise that was turned
out by the rought, one-time-black-
jack welding hands of a hardboiled
second story man. Doesn't that
make your back itch though?
Anyhow. the pe%nitentiary shirt
factory brings in the Jack in a legi-
innate way and relieves the taxpayer

to be butchers, bakers and candle
stick makers. That is. the list OF
their former occupations starts with

ing enrOute over SO other classified
lions OF trades and professions.
Common laborers are the most

Cooks and walters turned criminals

while from the standpoint of mar
ket poultry prices it is not so en-
couraging. 1t seems probable that
higher egg prices will prevail dur
ing the season of flush production
this year than last. With an abnorm-
ally large carry-over OF dressed poul-
try in storage it seems probable that
lower prices on market poultry may
prevail for at least the first half of
The year.
Colt Production Declines
There are as many horses and
mules of working age on farms as
will be needed for the coming sea-
son, and average prices of work
stock are lower than they were a
year ago. A decided decrease in colt
production during the past few years
however. points to a future shortage
of good work stock. This shortage
is likely to be acute during the time
that colts foaled this year and next,
or even young horses purchased now
are still in active service"
