Then I learned that it goes
like jhat. You buy some cattle
in the fall,- at 23c a pound. You
feed, them $500 worth of hay,
and pump 'water 10 them all
winter. In the spring, you put
them out to pasture. One falls
into a crack in the rocks, and
breaks his silly neck. Another
expires horribly, after eating a
broken beer bottle that some-
body threw over the fence. A
third comes down with the bloat.
But they've. gained 100 pounds
each, and you- can still break
even. So you ship them to
market in the fail. And .that
week, the bottom drops out of
beef- prices, and they go under
the hammer fat 18c 'a pound,
leaving you a net profit of
minus $700.
