This conversion to animal units
shows that the state had 100000
more animal units of grazing ami
mails at the beginning of this year
than for the 1947-51 period.
The decrease in sheep and horses
in the past 10 years has been more
than replaced ION an animal unit
basis) by cattle.
No Increase In Feed
The Montana feed crop acreages
have not increased much during the
time that cattle have increased
sharply. The increase last year in
hay crops was only 5000 acres. Feed
grain acreage on both irrigated and
dry land was reduced more than
enough to cancel out the increase in
hay production.
About 100000 acres of range land
has been plowed during the past 10
years and put into wheat production.
This acreage included much land
which had been re-seeded to crested
wheatgrass and most of the balance
was high yielding native grass. This
blowing has reduced the range feed
production.

They May Be Prime Factors
IN Your Purebred Operation

sRECORDS!" Even the mention of
the word generally is enough to
make many men unhappy and most
women sad. But then swinging a
pitchfork can be chore, and riding
the back pasture when it's 1Ol de-
grees in the shade is no snap. Rec
ord keeping is SO important that
there is not much use doing good
job of feeding or breeding if you
have no idea what is going on.
It's Like baseball game without
q scorebook.
Records for pedigree work are
must in the registered livestock
business. They're pretty well stand
ardized, so we won't GO into that.
Record keeping for tax purposes has
been discussed in other articles. But
little has been said concerning rec
ords that tell you more about the.
individual animals in your herd.
Several Montana breeders are
keeping records to use primarily for
management decisions. These rec
ords show the weight of the calf
crop at birth and Of bulls at wean-
ing time, and at regular intervals
about every 80 days-from weaving
time until the following spring. They
also record the marking and general
appearance of the calf at birth and at
weaving, and put a grade on the en-
tire herd at least once year.
It is the combination of all these
records that is, in the words of some
breeders, Invaluable" From birth
to sale time, from generation to gem
Grafton, these records are used to
plan breeding, feeding and DISPOSE
ton of the herd.
Montana farmer-stockman., 1952-08-01

From study Of them, sooner or
later, come the answers you are
looking for. Is a cow you tend to
keep in the back pasture-so few
people can see her-worth keeping?
You might be surprised to find that
she and her sisters are pulling all
their own weight and then some.
How does your $4,000 bull COM.
pare with your $4,000 bull? The
records might show that, while the
one you liked the best is getting an
outstanding calf every once in
while, far too often his calves don't
match up. And it's the good aver
age, rather than the 'sonce in a
WHILE" you are really after. After
a couple Of years you note that birth
weights are going down a bit each
year from one strain, up in another.
Long before it would show up in the
mature animals. birth weight rec
ords and gain tests will show definite
trends.

vii These Factors Balance Ont

relatively good weather conditions
for feed production.
The real problem is for each opera
tor to consider his ivestock-feed bal
ance soon and make his plans for
this winter. Not many operators can
afford the luxury of getting short
of feed early in the winter and hav-
ing to buy major part of the feed
required to. winter his livestock.
How Much Feed Is Needed?
The amount of feed needed will
vary by ranches depending on the
ranch itself and how well the opera
tor plans to winter his livestock.
Some ranchers are apparently try
ing to run too many cattle or other
stock. This is shown by ID cows and
young stock in thin condition going
into the winter or (2) cows going
down too far in flesh during the win
ter. In other words the stock suffer
from what DIR. Howard WEIGH de-
scribed as Montana hollow-belly."
This amount of feed required viii
also vary by areas of the state. The
following table gives an average fig
ure for the three main areas of Mon
tana on feeding period and hay re-
quirements.

operator who sells his calves at
weaving age.
The index number would not only
take into account the birth weight
of the calf, but also the milking and
mothering job done by the cow. Like
other physical records, this weaving
age index number is comparative
figure within a herd. But with due
application Of common sense it might
well be used as an honest aid by a
prospective buyer between herds.
Breeders who have such records
available are finding that more and
more commercial breeders are ask
ing for weight records. Some ranch
ers have stated point blank that they
were in the market for indexed bulls
only.
So weight. gain and grade records
of each animal in your herd can be
not only an aid to your breeding
program, they can be a big factor
in your selling program.
Montana farmer-stockman., 1952-08-01

These amounts are just averages.
Some operators may want more
while others may use less. The
amount of hay will vary also ac-
cording to the amount of concentrate
fed and, as always, on the winter.
The important question for each
operator to answer is: VIII the live
stock numbers and the feed sup
ply balance out for my ranch this
winter? Some adjustments are al
ready being made in the drier areas.
Now is the time when most careful
operators are working out their OPP
erations SO they can give Eyes" an
swer to that question.
Montana farmer-stockman., 1952-08-01

At least one breeder has worked
out an index number for calves of
weaving age. It is arrived at simply
by dividing the weaving weight of
the calf by the number of days of
age of. each calf. This would be an
important aid to the purebred breed
er and on through to the commercial

THE DRY weather during the 1852
growing season has cut Montana's
grass and hay crop. This will force
many livestock operators to con-
slider the balance between livestock
numbers and the feed available for
their ranch or farm.
A few state figures may help OPP
orators size UP the general condi-
tions.
Cattle numbers are up. The follow

Have you noticed how many Scan
dinavian movies have been shown
in Seattle lately Last season
three of the eight films selected
for showing by the Seattle Film
Society were from Denmark and
Sweden Now comes word that
of the seven films to be presented
in the World Cavalcade program
for 1952-1953 Iceland, Sweden and
Denmark are to be represented,
which is a high percentage, too.
WE MAKE A NOTE of the fact
that Holiday magazine in its May
issue features an 1S-page vaca-
ton article on western Washing
ton entitled The most beautiful
part of America" . In it we also
find. as we all know, that the Sc
attic area abounds with Scandin-
avians and folks with Scandina-
Wan appetites, accounting for such
commonplace occurrences as smor-
easbords and Norwegian fish balls.
