How Now? More
Beef Now. Brown
Cow, That's How

Cattle today are over a third
more productive than theit ances-
tors of 80. years ago reports Nat
ional Live Stock Producer, the ma
tons leading live stock magazine.
Each cow on American farms
produced 539 pounds live weight
of cattle and calves in 1854 -194S
pounds more than in 1924.
Producers and consumers alike
benefit from this trend. The pro-
ducer has more beef to sell while
the consumer has more beef to eat.
Better animals, more feeding,
better care and swing to beef
types are the main reasons for
this increase. Farmers now pay
more attention to their breeding
stock and more productivity is be-
ing bred into the stock. A higher
proportion of cows produce calves
and death losses have been reduc-
ed.
More cattle are now finished on
grain and average carcass weight
at slaughter has risen from 474
pounds in the 1920-24 period to 511
pounds in 1950-54.
Part of the gain in productivity
is the results of more beef cattle
in total cattle numbers. They gain
faster and more efficiently than
dairy cattle.
Madison County Democrat. (London, Ohio) 19??-1958, 1955-12-06

this increase is an even greater
gain in motor vehicle travel.
Heavier travel and the festive
spirit of the Christmas season al
ways add to the normal winter
hazards of bad weather, slippery
roads and added hours of darkness,
the Council said.
In warning against driving aft
er drinking, the Council said that
u of all fatal traffic accidents
involve drinking driver or pedes-
trian. The conviviality of the holi-
days probably increases this per-
centage.
In an effort to reduce yuletide
accidents to a minimum, city and
state officials, civic leaders, safety
councils and 160 organizations are
joining with the Council in enlist
ing the cooperation of every mot
orist and pedestrian.
IF everyone would be his broth
er's keeper and assume personal
responsibility for himself an d
others, whether walking or driv-
ing. many holiday traffic accidents
could be prevented" Ned H. Dear
born, president of the Council,
said.
Madison County Democrat. (London, Ohio) 19??-1958, 1955-12-06
