The increase has been chiefly in the western provinces where live stock ranching is being con- stantly improved, The total increases are, however, greater than the total de-, creases, not including swine. The in- creases ]n cattle were 427,364.. 'Che decreases were as follows: Mitch cows, 63,510; horses, 5,464; sheep, 73,461; swine, 297,228. , The increases in cattle at 5,42 per cows, horses, swine and sheep was 58,284,120, so that the total live stock in Canada showed a gain in value for Ms year of over .59,600,000, The de- creases included 5683,000 in horses; 5514,227 in sheep; 53,549,557 in milch cows and 53,567,336 in swine; a11 these decreases totalling 58,284,120, taking tate per heats values as given by the government in 1914. As shown above the increases in cattle were worth aver 507,949,000, so that the 1916 live stock assets of Canada are over "x9,665,000 larger than for last year. The actual increase in live stock as- sets may be placed at well over 540,000,000 because of the increased value per head of cattle due to pre- sent prices, The increase in cattle was so large in both number of head and in monetary value, that it allowed a sub- stantial gain; in live stock assets of Canada after providing for consider- able losses in Milch cows, horses, swine and sheep. 0 CATTLE IN CANADA The following chart shows the increases in the number of cattle in all Canada, not including milch cows.
