Longhorns by the millions ranging the western
grassands from the Gulf Coast to Montana build
ing empires making history and legend on the
great cattle trails! That sixty and more years
ago. Then the railroads came much of the range
fenced and the fate of the longhorn sealed Short
horn, Angus and Hereford bulls came in from the
east. Gradually, the longhorns We're bred out of
existence, until today only few isolated museum"
herds are left.
This is one story of continuing livestock progress
of better animals developed to meet changing condi
tons and needs Who knows but that in another fifty
years today's "best may look old fashioned
longhorns do now.
With hogs one amazing change is in the increased
speed and efficiency of producing pork Three years
needed to raise hog to market weight.
Today, pigs often weigh 200 to $50 pounds at six
months less Straight line and crossbred breeding
experiments seek even more efficient hogs to make
weight in the short time but produce more meat
In lambs, development is directed toward ''dual-
purpose breeds. Certain breeds have been best for
wool but not best for meat Others produced the
meat but were lacking in wool. Researchers have
made progress on breeds of lambs to produce both
meat and good wool economically
A first step in the improvement of any animals or
any herd is to prouen sres dams Of knoUn pro-
ductiUe ability The eye alone is not enough To know
production records and ancestry is vital Bull grading
programs offer greater certainty in choosing SIRE
Weighing young animals at weaving time and mark
ing them is important especially in the selection of
gifts. touch system of sheep grading is proving
helpful in culling large bands in little time.

couldn't match newer breeds in beef production
Calves from Hereford, Shorthorn and AngusI bulls
and from thrifty longhorn dams grew faster They
produced more and better meat from less feed
Blocker and of heavier frame they yielded more of
the more popular meat cuts. They were better money
makers for farmers and ranchers. Such results en-
couraged selection of better foundation stock.
Each improvement in meat production has been
met by increased demand for popular cuts on Amer

areas, bringing telephone service
to more and more rural families.
And while pole lines are being
extended, many improvements are
being made in the present service.
The number Of parties on rural
lines is being reduced. Improved
ringing systems, on which the Gus
toner hears the ring of not more
than half of the parties on his line,
are now being provided. Crank

And we're making rapid progress
