Came. ♦ (.Based on production figures suppliid <by Dairy Herd Improvement Association, i and estimated fly-time loss.) i Improving a A remarkable improvement * has taken place in the over-all | quality of the cattle slaughtered | for beef in Can..da during the J past five years, states the { Marketing Service, Department j J of Agriculture, Ottawa. 11 Since the national carcass f grades wgre established in 1946 I - all the inspected slaughter has' been carcass graded. In 1950, of a total kill of 1,300,000 cattle, 16.7 per cent reached the two top grades—6 per cent choice, 10.7 per cent good, the balance were graded as commercial or other grades. In .1955, of a total kill of 1,700,000 cattle, 35.4 per cent were in the two top grades— 18 per cent choice, 17.4 per cent good. The percentage reaching the, top grades is still increasing. For the first five months of 1956, with a total kill of 777,000, there were 42.2 . per cent in the two top grades— 21.9 choice, 20.3 good, as compared with 721,000 killed, grading 18.8 choice and 18.9 good, in the first five months of 1955. The Marketing Service notes that when exports go down the quality of the home slaughter goes up but for the first five months of this year, exports were down only 6.300 head while the number of “choice” and “good” cattle slaughtered in­ creased by over 58,000 head. The grading figures indicate that Canadian farmers are producing more top quality beef and that' Canadian consumers are in­ creasing their demands so that most of it is needed at home.

There were people present from all of the area served by this artificial breeding organi­ zation as well as representatives from breed associations, other artificial breeding units, and many interested visitors The manager, Roy G. Snyder, reported 29,886 cows inseminated during the rst six months of 1956, this being an increase over the same period of the previous year of 3,522 '•ows or 13.4%. The month of June, 1956, was the largest in volume of business that the unit has ever exper­ ienced with 8,971 cows insemi­ nated. This is an increase over June, 1955, cf 1,701 cows or a greater increase in June than the entire volume of business in the whole year of 1947.

In a few minutes the boys return, whis.tling and singing as they jaunt along the trail,' • • • Qn returning to camp, the dif­ ferent morning tasks are allotted, and with smiling faces the boys begin their duties. The water carrier is off to the spring and the fire-lighter is on bended knee over the still warm ashes of the evening camp fire. Two scouts are preparing the breakfast while still another two are airing out the bedrolls. Co-operation is at its best, and in no time break­ fast is being devoured by six hungry scouts. The kettle, is on the fire and it’s dishwashing time. Everyone digs in to clean up the remains (what little there is) and with smiling faces the black bottom pots begin to shine. The dishes are done and the camp is cleaned up and there is one hour of free time to dispose of, so it’s off to the woods for six keen Scouts like a hound dog on the scent of a cotton-tail. The ScOuters now have free time to plan their day’s activities. Soon the boys return and- a couple of games are enjoyed’ by all. Next on the list is camp im­ provement, and six little Scouts busy themselves making hat racks, shoe stands, wood racks, tables, fences and gates. In a little while.dinner is pre­ pared in the same enthusiastic fashion as breakfast, for each know that when things are cleaned up, once again it’s free time, to the woods or down to the stream. So without com­ plaint, the patrol leader’s orders are carried out. After the boys come back from their free time it’s into their swim suits and down to the old swimming hole, to spend the afternoon in fun and frolic in the water, Once more another meal comes up and the Patrol Leader is allotting duties for each Scout. After supper an hour rest period is scheduled, but who rests? Its more fun to play ball or climb trees. 'There is a shrill blast of the whistle and the Scoutmaster announces to pick up the fishing gear and they are off, down to tile river to fish. With not many fish but a little more experience, the now tiring Scout troop returns. A large camp fire is soon blazing, and the echo of lilting camp songs is heard down the valley. A small lunch is enjoyed by all, and the camp fire is closed with taps. Now comes the well-eatned •rest after an invigorating day. Six Scouts are seen crawling in­ to the tent, There is a bit of jostling and a few giggles, then the tent flap comes down, and all j is quiet On the camp site.

Growth Rate Of Swine Aided By Aureomycin roll your own cigarettes with OGDENS QUALITY FINE CUT Summer Shoes Clearance Aureomycin increased both the growth rate and the feed effi­ ciency of four lots of swine fed rations of different protein con­ tents in a test conducted at the Canada Department of Agricul- ure Experimental Farm at Mel- fort, Saskatchewan. It was also found that as the protein level of the rations in­ creased the area of the loin muscle (eye of lean) was in­ creased. In all, some 160 pigs were fed from weaning to market weight and the carcas­ ses scored according to Ad­ vanced Registry’ standards. Protein levels of th- four basic rations ranged from 13% to 19 per cent during the period from weaning to 70 pounds, from 12 to 15 per cent while the pigs grew from 70 to 130 pounds in weight and from 11 to 13 per cent during the finishing period. An aureomycin supplement ad­ ded to one of each of the basic rations contained 3.6 milligrams of aureomycin per po.und and was fed at the rate of 5 pounds per ton during the first grow­ ing period and at the rate of 2% pounds per ton during the final two periods. During all three feeding periods “and at all levels of pro­ tein fed, the addition of aureo­ mycin increased the rate of gain by an’ average of 11 per cent. In­ creases in rate of growth on the low, medium, standard and high protein rations through the addition of aureomycin were 8.5, 11.9, 18.1 and 5.0 per cent respec­ tively. This indicates that aureo­ mycin can give better growth rate responses in rations that are well balanced according to pre­ sent standards. For the whole feed period, aureomycin improved feed effi­ ciency in the low, medium stand­ ard and high protein rations by 8.8, 8.0, 4.6 and 4.1 per cent, respectively, indicating a some­ what greater increase in feed efficiency as protein level was ind period, cheapest gains were made by the pigs fed the low protein ration containing aureo­ mycin. A detailed study of carcass quality revealed that dressing percentage, per cent hams, Ad­ vanced Registry Scores for length, depth of backfat, bal­ ance and belly were not signifi­ cantly affected by either pro­ tein level of the rations or by Aureomycin supplementation did not significantly reduce Ad­ vanced Registry scores of pigs fed at any of the protein levels tested. While the addition of aureo­ mycin to the medium and stand­ ard protein rations caused a significcant increase in thick­ ness of backfat, this increase was not sufficient to significantly reduce carcass quality as meas­ ured by Advanced Registry standards. The protein level of the ration had a highly significant effect on area of the loin (the eye of lean.) The average cross-section­ al area of this muscle of pigs fed low, medium, standard and high protein rations was 3,29, 3.60, 369 and 3.74 square inches, I respectively. Advanced Registry score was also influenced by pro- ' tein level. When aureomycin was not fed, the pigs fed the medium protein ration scored significan­ tly higher than those fed the low .protein ration, while those fed either standard or the high pro- tein rations showed an even significant increase in thick- vanced Registry score when compared with those fed the low protein ration. On the aureo­ mycin supplemented rations, the Only group of pigs to score sig­ nificantly higher than the group fed the low protein ration were those fed the high protein ration.
