Late Spring ... Earliest

promotion f'gteing as successfully
as Hon., Willi'ani Sttewart was
able’to persuade . dairy-men to
switch to beef a few years,"ago,
we can expect’ poor, returns for
the bejef--farmer. Aor ta good
many years..
There-has been-a great'deal
of publicity given- to the losses
of cattle in Aflibtenba due to a’
couple of severe storms this
'spring. It seems .to me that I
saw ah estimate of 15,000 cows
■killed by: the ’storm. That means
15,000 fewer ’ calves and the
.same number -fewer fat cattle
going to market", a»,couple of
years from noy’’. . 4'
What dries this mean" to the
•market ? During' the week end-’
tag May 20, 1967, 52,581 beef,
careassies; were graded jjn fed
erally ..inspected plants."-If we
. add *a few-more cattle that are
not" slaughtered in plants that
aren’t federally inspected this
loss of cattle means' less than'
two i days supply.-Tt means a
loss of 7,500,000rpoundis of beef
or about one-third of a pound
pei’ person in Canada during a
year. Then, too, „ these figures
take it for granted that "normal
ly there is no loss o£ cows dur
ing , "winter storms which I'm
sure isn’t true.
. Yet if we were to listen to
the publicity agents, and follow
the advlee. of our political lead
ers we would feel sure that this
terrific loss- would boost cattle
prices, perhaps 10 cents a pound.
(and beef by 30‘ cents' a pound).

i got finished* seeding, tocludtog
corn, Monday, May 29. If it
’• .hadn’t been for a break with
grass seed box we .would have
been finished a few, days sooner.
It’s always i surprising how
the weather can change" "so-
quickly and' what a difference
it makes in getting work done!
It seemed so~ cold arid back-;
Ward this ‘year that we "all felt
we were in for a bad; •• late
seeding, ■ but ,it has ended up
that we’re through about two
weeks eariier than we" 'have
been for several years. • . . ;
It is wonderful how well the
grain is growing in spite‘ of the
;dry, - cool- weather. One piece
of mixed grain that I sowed
on May 24" was showing, in
odd spots«this afternoon, just
five dlays later. ' ‘ .
Prospects around here .are
very good for an excellent crop,
I wonder what it will do for
our income? I expect I did the
wrong, thing as so often happens
to farmerfSv’l cut back on my.
•-grain crop .this " year as I’m
moving to more, cattle and few
er hogs. This means more hay
which doesn’t look promising
and, less . grain which, setems to.
be excellent. ’ . R
..Also, I must be wrong to
increasing^my beef" cow-calf
herd since just recently onq of
the government members was
telling a meeting of . fanners
that Canada would have to im.-
port feeder cattle as there was'
a shortage of calves being rais- x->crci Amanns' wuwu • gump ar
ed here. If they can get this the bait and tocrease papduc-
■ i 'R ; -- r ,
Lion ’by> buying more concen
trate and pushing the cattle to
heavier’ weights more quickly.
Instead of less beef we would
suddenly find -.we have
and the price drops.
The "farmers made a
on Ottawa demanding
ance from, government;
agree whole-heartedly
their endeavour. It even seemed
f------- z . .........™
really gave the ■ government
more
march
assist-
and I
' with
__________
from the news reports that’ they
really gave the , government
something to worry about.
On , the other;-hand I can’t
help wondering- if the first step
would-be to persuade govern
ment to leave farmers to their
own devices. It you tee heard’, the
song ■ “The. . Preacher and the
Bear” you'll know what I mean.
