Of the last great moral forces in
the Communist path"
Mr.. Smutny bitterly condemned
conditions under Communist rule
in Czechoslovakia.
The people have lost all their
democratic freedoms. he said,
They live in constant fear of the
police. Their standard of living
grows lower day by day.
Our once prosperous industry,
with trade all over the world. is
now working solely for its bosses
in the Soviet Union. The people S
only hope is for ultimate victory
of democratic forces. They still
believe in this victory.
The majority of the Czech
people are not and never will be
Communists" he asserted.

puts the old squeeze play net income The answer,
obviously is reducing production costs to the bone
making every production unit efficient, whether it be
of ground, a hog, cow, or a chicken.
High producing, adapted varieties of crops ade-
quatey fertilized planted at the right time in well
prepared soil, will cut the cost of production.
Most farmers feed their hay and corn to livestock,
and the herds and hocks convert this feed into milk,
pork eggs etc. Therefore we must be sure that they
are efficient. 1t is your livestock that settles the
price you get for your feed and labor Low producing
animals and birds should be disposed of now, and
they should be replaced with high producers.
Can the proper use of electricity, machinery, and
power cut your labor costs? Study causes Of live
stock mortality and correct any bad conditions
Sanitation pays. Analyze your production figures and
costs; they will reveal your weak and strong spots
Keep overhead cost down.
Every farmer can improve his operations and it
will pay from here on out

Price Balances
Supply and Demand
In the first six weeks of the year :
livestock and meat prices have
drOpped with great rapiditY. In

my "a years with Swift & Company have never
seen so violent drop. On the other hand, have
never seen prices start down from so high level.
1t is the law of supply and demand at work.
When the wholesale prices of meat-the amount
meat packers can get for it-go down, it means
lower prices for livestock. 1t always has been and
always will be that way. When demand for meat
increases, we are able TO pay producers more for
their livestock. The prices Swift & Company, and
the other 26, 900 meat packers and commercial
saughterers, pay for livestock are governed by
what they get for the total available supply of
meat and the by-products. AS in the past in the
future, livestock prices will result entirely from
the balance between supply and demand.
Let's Be For Things Seems to me that most
of us spend too much time and blood pressure be-
ing against things Let's be for things. Let's be
for freedom of choice and initiative. Let's be for
system which allows man to choose freely his
own work, to make his own opportunities, to plan
his OWn production. Which lets him decide where
and how he lives; how he spends or invests his
earnings. Let's be for our country, where mans
the boss of his own time, his own thoughts and his
political and religious beliefs. Let's take a
good look at the rest of the world then reverently
thank God, and be for the United States.
Hope you have prosperous summer, and well
be looking forward to being with you again. Mean
while, if you're in Chicago, plan to visit us at
Swift & Company. All of us in the Agricultural
Research Department cordially invite you to drop
in for a chat. Wen be looking for you!

COWBOYS of just few '"""S"SSSSssifsNyS %SSisy
years ago would have been puzzled srIsraVSgNNi
by the above illustration. But livestock
producers today see it as a picture of routine
job l.. . vaccination of calf to help keep him
healthy.
Livestock producers and meat packers have
common goal: to supply America with all the
wholesome, nutritious meat this nation of ours
needs. And so at every step of the way-from
range, farm and feed lot to tbs tables of con-
sumers-p precautions are taken to produce meat
of the best possible quality meat that will re-
ceive the familiar round purple stamp 'U. S.
Inspected & Passed" " This purple circle, found on
every important cut supplied by federally in
spected packers, is the housewives guarantee of
good, wholesome meat.
Growing animals are subject to various all
ments Meat, milk wool and other valuable by
products -. enough to supply a good-sized ma
ton are lost on farms and ranches each year.
Add to this the lost grain and grass fed to animals
which never live to maturity, or fed to unthrifty
livestock that gain slowly. Total dollar losses run
into billions.
Much has been done toward reducing these
LOSSES New drugs and chemicals, such as the
sufas, pencilin and phenothiazine, are conquer
ing livestock ailments, pests and parasites. But
some of these causes of reduced production and
profit are stubborn. To lick them will take in
creased knowledge, cooperation amongneighbors
and constant watch for danger signs. But the
increased earnings which can result from these
efforts make them more than worth while. Pro-
duction of healthy livestock is the only way to
keep the markets for the meat you produce sup
piled and expanding In solving your problems
your local. state and federal veterinarians are
good men to turn to for help.
