Phone 78 Advance Registry for Beef Cattle Gives Interesting Data The rennits _obtained. from the first seven steers to. be tested under the Ontario. Advaheed Registry Policy for Beef Cattle, shows very clearly why some beef proriveere make a lot more money than others, This is the comment of W. P., Watson, Livestock Commissioner for Ontario, who points out that the figures on feed cost of producing a pound of grain on these steers ranged from a ..low of .22c to a NO of i28;rie• a pOnnti, All seven of the carcasses dualified for Red Brand Beef, though some Were better than °there.. IfeWeVer, the important thing from the standpoint of the producer .is the inherited abil ity of these animals to. Make their gains economically and still have these high quality. carcasses, Records of the feed they ate and the galhe obtained certainly showed Marked differences, The calf With the best record for producing beef econ- omically was a good feeder, though not the heaviest eater of the seven, He ate on average, 11 pounds of grain and 8.4 pounds of hay per day and from this produced an average of 2.33 pounds of gain per day„ Against this, the calf with the highest costs ate both more hay and grain (11.3 pounds of grain and 9 pounds of hay), Even with this additional feed he gained only 1,87 pounds per day, which meant that over a feeding period of approximately 200 days, his produc, tion of beef for his owner was some 90 pounds less than the steer with the best record. Taking the actual cost of feed and the gains in the two cases, it is easy to see which owner had the More. profitable animal. The steer with the lowest cost of production gained 465 pounds in 199 days of feeding at a total cost of $102.61, The steer with the highest cost of production gave his owner a gain of only 377 pounds in 201 days at a slightly higher cost of $107„40, With present beef prices this difference is 'very marked, and could well spell the difference be- tween a substantial profit and a loss in feeding the cattle. Under' the policy, the steers were placed in the test barn within two When Service is Required on your Lighter or Pipe send it to Cameron's Billiards WINGRAM -:- ONTARIO weeks of the time when •they were OS months of age, After a preliminary, feeding Palled of three to four weeks' in new surronntlinga, they ywere plat- ed .a standard feeding ration and fed for a period of approximatelyy 1.96. days, at which time they were mar- keted and graded on the rail, Mr. Watson adds that while the show ring has done much to improve our beef cattle, it still gave no pleas- ure of the ability of the different bloodlines to produce good beef econ- omically, The Advanced Registry Policy provides for the testing of the ability •of beef bulls to sire calves which do this job, and for the coin- merChd breeder, the ability to pro- duce the most beef for the least feed is by far the most important char- acteristic his sire can transmit.
