As a matter of fact, over 80 per

Selling crops breaks the bank where

prime meats is dependent upon if.
Feeding cattle is not common
practice in California. While ev-
eryone knows that a hog has to be
fat to be fit for market, too many
stockmeh in the west assume that
for sheep and cattle grass is a suf
ficient feed for the production of
market meat. The best beef, how
ever. comes from grain fed cattle.
The time was when Californians
really thought not only that grass
fed beef was superior but that beef
from old cattle was better than from
younger animals. These are now no

at the live stock shows for steers
