other. There should be some limit on the
time cars can be held before returning them
to the line on which they originated More
attention should be given to developing a
pool of cars ahead of the harvest movement
And it seems obvious to most observers
that larger total supply of cars is needed
to adequately take care of these peaks that
inevitably develop at different times of the
year in different parts of the country.
There is need for full cooperation on the
part of all concerned. The question is admit
tedly tough one because of the seasonal
nature of the movement of some of these
agricultural and other commodities.
Another complicating factor is the vary
ing quantity of grain, livestock and other
products requiring transportation from
year to year. In Montana, for instance, total
wheat production this year is estimated at
92,698000 bushels as compared with 64,080,-
900 last year.
But difficult as it is to completely meet
the car shortage problem, farmers and other
shippers are insisting that immediate and
continuing attention be given to the stu
alton SO that substantial progress can be
made toward more adequate service in the
future.

WHEN it comes to craftsmanship and
w public relations, the producer of
purebred livestock is like the merchant on
Main street, or the national manufacturer.
Whether your products are registered bulls
or upholstered furniture, foundation fe-
males or farm equipment, the good will of
the customer or prospective customer is
vitality important to you.
During your lifetime as a producer of
quality breeding stock you must sell to
dozens or hundreds of commercial growers.
Some of them will be nice to deal with,
others may be somewhat unreasonable. But
most of the successful breeders have found
that it pays to do business on the principle
that "the customer is always right" or at
least almost always.
The buyer is an independent individual
ist. AS long as this is a free country he can
buy where and from whom he pleases. If
he thinks you have treated him right he'll
probably be back for more breeding stock.
But if he feels that you have done him wrong,

Tackling the Boxcar Shortage

Tvhere must be some better answer to
J. the recurring problem of the seasonal
boxcar shortage. 1t is costly to farmers, to
grain companies and co-operatives, and to
the railroads themselves.
AS this is written most of Montana's
elevators are plugged for lack of cars to
move the grain to the terminals Millions
of bushels will be piled on the ground
around elevators and on farms before the
harvest season is over Were it not for the
extensive building of farm storage facilities
in recent years the situation would be far
more serious
While the task of the railroads has been
made more difficult this season by the abb
normal demand for cars to transport equip
ment and supplies of the armed services,
this is not the entire answer. There appears
to have been an accommodating shortage of
cars over period of years. This has caused
railroad companies in other regions to hold
cars for their own use that come to their
lines from the railways of the northwestern
states
1t would appear that some improvement
can and must, be made in controlling the
movement of cars from one region to an

EARM and ranch thievery is on the in
J. crease. Recent letters from readers re-
port the loss of grain, livestock, farm equip
ment and other valuable items. Vigilance in
safeguarding property, speed in reporting
theft cases to the law enforcement officers
and active cooperation of the sheriffs of
fees in Investigating such cases and going
after the thieves, are the most important
factors in checking such stealing in any rural
community
It is sometimes difficult to adequately
protect property, especially in large farm
or ranch areas. But some precautions can
usually be taken. Where it is necessary to
leave a tractor or truck considerable dis

Many farm families could make more
practical use of cameras than they do. It's
fine to keep a record of the youngsters as
they grow up and of the oldsters as they
reach new milestones. But why not also
keep record of the livestock about the
place? Then if something is stolen you have
a dependable means of Identification. This
isn't practical on a big stock ranch, of
course, but it is on a farm where smaller
numbers of animals are handled.
First years operation of the world wheat
agreement was disappointing to the United
States. This country sold only 1853, 900 900
bushels of its 235000,000 bushel quota.
Other exporting countries disposed of their
entire allotments. 1t now appears that, with
or without a world agreement, u. S. will
sell only where it loans the money needed
for the purchase of the grain. This expert
ence is putting more steam behind the de-
mand for two-price system for wheat.

Montana farmers and ranchers derived
36 percent of their cash income in 1949 from
wheat and "a percent from cattle. Sheep
and wool accounted for percent, dairying
for percent, hogs for 3 percent and poultry
and eggs for percent. Most of the re-
mainder of the total cash farm income came
from hay, other grains, sugarbeets, and mis-
cellaneouS crops.
Economic conditions change rapidly in
this atomic age. A few short months ago it
appeared that the country was in for a pro-
longed period of deflation. Now the outlook
is for further initiation. And continuing
manpower shortage seems inevitable.
Cattle numbers are increasing in the
deep south but SO is the human population.
