The number of cattle re - 'ported en farms at December 1, 1945, ;was 9,960,800. This is three per cent below the number reported for the corresponding date in 1944 and also represents a decline in the December ,Nnurnbers of cattle which, from 1942 toy 1944,. had been increasing at a rate of about eight per cent. per year. During the =first quarter of 1946, inspected slaughterings of cattle and .,.calve$ were slightly less than a year ago. Prices on both the . Winnipeg and Toronto markets were stronger and in general showed less variation thaxj, in• the , corresponding period of.; 1945. The cattle slaughtered in this period was 401,000' head which is three per cent below that of last year. In Western Canada there was an increase of slat per cent., while a decrease of almost 17 per cent. oe- curred in Eastern Canada, The sea- sonal decline ia cattle marketings has been rapid and fairly regular. During the second week of January, 1946, a total of 39,000 head passed through inspected plants. By the last week of March of this year the num- ber had dropped to 26,000 head. Inspected slaughterings of calves amounted to 131,000 in the first quar- ter of 1946. This is six per cent. be- low last year's first quarter. Decreas- es occurred in both Eastern and Western Canada—eight per cent, be- low in the East and six per cent. be- low in the West. Since the last week of January, marketings increased sea- sonally. During„ March, 1946,. the.. in- crease in weekly slaughterings was wore rapid than during March, 1945. The 1946 ,agreement with the Unit- ed Kingdom provides for the shipment of all beef surplus to Canada's re- quirements, and negotiations are to be continued to extend the current,: agreements to cover 1947 and prob- ably 1948. ' During the firstquarter of 1946, the Meat, Board had purchas- ed and, shipped or., •booked -for- early shipment 29,335,000 pound's of bone - in beef and 14,239,000 pounds of bone- less beef. In addition, 26 million pounds of canned meat lunch, meat pate, meat spread and blood sausage had been shipped to various countries for ,UNRRA and; to Belgium.` HFrNS ALL QI'N.AUd a r e > it J ge 04#4,1!".,4,P>rh l Do ilOgi, spent' 'bd 'e stilia 11e 1pl> a hexa.; l xi: e13p , „el•leN ,its f�„ hpinas, visitie ,With' b4s dpgKllter rid spit,»lms, mow, TigVi aid Mrs, ;'x 'ed, and' , ,milyain Ht)ys .. , Mr; , dM:11i Oreorge Hon udswere in Coderleh 0,1a S1 i aP vhie ting with, their s+dja and daughter la4P, , Mr. and Mrs. f-asey''b '. ,; Thos t1" -ninth ariiniVer,K,ery of St. Pa h rch Wil b. held on Sun.
