began Shifting from a oone-crop'' industry-wool-to
production of both lambs and wool, the need for a true
breeding type of sheep, combining the vigor, hardness
and focking instinct of the fine wool types, with the
size, proli6cacy, and desirable carcass characteristics
of the mutton types, was clearly indicated: Recogniz-
ing this need, U. S. Department of Agriculture scien.
lists began developing such a breed from crosses be-
tween Rambouillet ewes "a fine wool type), and Lin
coin rams "a mutton type).
Today, after more than 80 years of intense selection
for desirable CHARACTERISTIC, the Columbia is widely
used on better ranges of the West. Animals of this
breed are large, rugged, vigorous, prolific and pro-
ductive.
Development of the Columbia breed has been Sue
cessful because: ~ it was created to fill a real need;
(2) the breeding program was carefully plannc3 TO
preserve and concentrate the germ plasm of superior
Individuals; (3) rigid culling was %practiced; and az
practical production factors have been emphasized il
the selection program.
Adherence to these simple principles will result in
further improvements of other farm animals.

downhill," it soaks into the soil, makes plant food
nutrients available to the roots of crops and, pene-
trating further, fills up natures great underground
reservoirs.
Water thus stored in the subsoil is the source of
the wells and springs which supply homes and farms
and ranches. For years this water table" has been
dropping very seriously in some sections. But where
soil conservation has been p~racticed over large areas,
the lowering of the water table" has been a less
serious problem. Soil and water can never be d.
vorced in any good land management program.
These two great resources are welded for all time,
and from their union comes the wealth of Americas
agriculture and the prosperity of the nation.

ple-62,OOO folks like you and me
F. M. Simpson

fM s'"p'0" who have pooled their savings to
build a business. These savings are invested in plants
and equipment, in livestock and other raw materials,
and in all the many things that make up Swift &
Company.
Without people there could be no business, no Swift
& Company. There must be people (shareholders) to
supply the capital; others (farmers and ranchers) to
supply the raw materials; many thousands (employes)
who work with their heads and hands for the COM
pany; and the millions. of consumers who buy the
meat and other products.
The success of a business enterprise depends on how
these various groups of people get along together. In
other words, there must be goodwill and cooperation
between the owners of Swift & Company and livestock
producers, employees, and the company's customers.
To maintain goodwill we know that Swift & Com
pany must: y pay fair prices for raw materials, in:
Guiding livestock; p pay a good days pay for a good
days work; - provide the money to keep plants and
facilities efficient; a. pay Federal, State and Municipal
taxes; s. earn a profit to give our owners a fair return
on their invested savings.
The management of Swift & Company recognizes
this fve-fold responsibility to the various groups of
people who make our business. 1t is to their interest
that we manage our business efficiently, that we earn
a sufficient profit to let us

o R THINKING ABOUT

In view Of the recent talk about the business, profits,
ETC., of the meat packers, it's worth remembering the
basic economics of all businesses in this country.
To be successful, any business must do four things
-D it must purchase its raw materials at prices COM
parable to the prices paid by its competitors; p through
know-how, efficiency, good operating, it must manufac-
cost no higher than that of its competitors; 81 in doing
this, it must pay its workers wage rates comparable to
the going wage-scale paid by others; ~ and it must sell
its product at prices that a Large part of the public il
willing and able to pay.
In the Observation-Disclosures industry, this simply means
that prices must be high enough to earn both cost and
a decent profit for the livestock producer, the meat
packer and the retail merchant-and lou enough to
keep the great masses of people eating meat.

That welcome rain that brings new life to your
land, crops and livestock is the traditional million
dollar rain" known to every farmer and rancher.
There is an old saying, "You can't do much about
the weather" But you can do a great deal about
what the weather does to your land. Rain can bring
relief after drouth and is North that million dollars
or it can be a savage enemy that FLASHES off with
grit in its teeth and tears down our soil like a billion
furious buzz saws"
Water that walks downhir is your ally in in
creasing the production of your land. And one secret
Of handling rainfall properly is farming on the
level by strip cropping, contour blowing, terrac-
ing. Cover crops, erased waterways, dams and farm
ponds also help control the destructive power of
rain. Then you hold the rain where it falls. Surface
run-off is slowed down to the point where it doesn't
erode your topsol away. And as your water walks

6. !. Questions

This column is conducted by
the State Department of Veterans
Affairs. All readers are urged to
send in questions pertaining to
rights and benefits accruing to
war veterans. It must be borne
in mind that space is limited and
that simple generalization, only
is possible in answering questions
in this column. For this reason
veterans and others entitled to
benefits are urged to appear at
the nearest local office of the De-
partment of Veterans Offairs for
assistance in making application
for government benefits.
Address all inquiries to Depart
ment Of Veterans Affairs, Title &
Trust Building, Pasco.
Question: I am going to re-en-
list in the Army for another three
years, but am wondering what ef-
feet this will have on my rights
under the CT Bill of Rights. For
instance, could I still get a CT
loan, or 60 to school, etc., at the
end of by re-enlistment period?
Answer: Yes. For those re-
existing at this time "termina-
ton of the war" does not occur
until expiration Of their re-en-
listment period, and all rights to
readjustment allowances, guaran-
tee of loans and educational ben
efits are extended.
Cues: I want to make a loan to
90 into business, but have already
bought a home costing 5000
through a CT loan, of which the
government guaranty was $500.
Am I still eligible to get a CT
loan to 60 into business?
Ans: Yes. However, since you
used up So of the maximum
guaranty entitlement on your
home loan, the guaranty on the
business loan may not exceed
$3.50, or the remaining 3-8 Of
your entitlement. The maximum
guaranty for real estate loans is
81 900; for business loans, $4,000.
Cues: I am an American citi-
zen, but I served with the Cana
dian Army during World War IL.
VIII you please tell me il I am
entitled to benefits of the CT Bill
Of Rights? At the present time I
am living in the State Of Wash
ingon.
Ans: Yes, under the amended
Act you are eligible for the same

RIGHTS as individuals who served
