of our grain and forage which be-
fore had to find a market.
A lot of our barley went to the
Scandinavian countries and Po-
land-now out of our picture-sc
that our farmers and ranchers de-
pend pretty much on livestock to
market their feed and the CONVEX
sion of these fseds into meat food
products, year in and year out
promises to be lucrative business.
We are graduelly turning into
the same line of feeding and fin
ishing practiced in the Corn Belt
where a very large percent of the
corn is converted into meat food.
Our barley is the equivalent of corn
but makes less tat, hence more de-
sirable for this section of the coun-
try for the class of beef in greatest
demand. Excessive fats are waste
full.
The practice of shipping cattle
and feed to a given point is gen.
orally regarded as uneconcmical as
by feeding at the ranch, or near
the source of the feed, the cost of
transportation is saved when the
feed is converted into meat food.
Based upon feed conditions existing
throughout the Southwest, we will
have g. larger percentage of fat
cattle this year from the range
than we have had for many years
and this so-called grass feed still
has a strong place in our produc-
ton program, especially where the
critter is hardened up when the
grass beg, ms to lose it's moisture and
dry out. And, there is no better
hardening feed than alfilaria and
bur clover.

will help lot to give the cattle a
finish, especially where our ranch
plants begin to fade out before the
animal is finished.
Poor range conditions have play
ed an important part in encourag
ing our rancherS to establish dry
lot feeding facilities, too many
cattle coming to market without
proper fleshing with depressing
effect upon the market. The com
bination of range and feed lot gets
away from the long carry-over we
havs had in years past and distrib-
utes the supply so as to avoid the
market glut we used to have when
everybody came to market with
grass cattle within brief period.
To enable cattlemen and farm
er feeders to do better job of feed
ing, the Los Angeles Union Stock
Yards has prepared a table show
ing the digestible protein, total di-
gestible nutrients and mineral con-
tent of common feeds. based on the
best, information obtainable. These
tables are available to anyone on
request, without charge.

NAUGHTON, VICE-PRES. & GEN.
MGR. OF THE LOS ANGEL ES
UNION STOCK YARDS says
AS summer approaches, cattlemen
are beginning 70 think about feed
let finishing of cattle that have
been on native grass pasture during
the winter and spring months.
In the old days, grass cattle furn-
ished the only beef available in
California, but since the advent of
the Los Angeles Union Stock Yards
18 years ago, where cattle arg grad
ed and sold in various classes, the
picture has changed.
Originally, one price prevailed for
each kind of cattle, with little or
no distinction made for quality. Now
! a differential exists between the
prices paid for granted and for
grass cattle which has encouraged
the feeding of cattle, as well as the
breeding of better cattle.
Twenty years ago there we're only
two ranches that were feeding cat
tie. The balance of our beef came
from the range. Ihe new indus
try has now developed into a big
affair where many of our ranchers
have put in facilities for grinding
and mixing natural feeds for dry
