livestock,
it u at ion,.
The distribution of livestock pro
duction has come in for serious con
sidération of late years, it being rec- !
■ ognized by the agricultural producer j
i that his was about the only industry
: that wasn't taking cognizance of the
i importance of gauging supply and
1 distribution to as nearly as possible
! equal the demand.
1 It is a fact that the bulk of the
ills of agriculture in general and '
I livestock production in particular can 1
j be traced to overproduction during '
j certain periods and under-production
i at other times, resulting generally in
I the producer having an oversupply i
! when prices are unfavorable and hav
j ing nothing to market when prices
1 are in a stronger position.
It is evident in the cattle industry
that the situation has never been
I more favorable to a readjustment of ,
! production than at this time. Pres
' ent prices are fairly satisfactory and
i the supply of cattle in the country is
short as a result of depression fol
lowing the war, causing depletion of
breeding herds.
An angle to cattle production
which has not received the considéra
tion it deserves is the distribution of
seasonal production in different pro
ducing sections. This has been fol
lowed out most successfully in the
sheep industry and the same principle
would apply to equalizing the cattle
supply throughout the year.
It can be recalled when the lambing
season in the sheep industry through
out the country was in the spring,
with the result that the summer and
fall movement of lambs assumed the
proportions of a glut and the only

other alternative was to carry the
lambs over until the following winter
or spring. The sheep industry, how
ever, has readjusted itself in a sea
sonal way so that lamb production is
well spread out throughout the year,
California lambing is accomplished
in the fall and lambs move to marker
early in the spring followed by Ken
tucky and southern lambs and the
summer and fall demand is taken care
of with lambs from the northern
ranges. This represents an orderly
production and marketing of the lamb
crop.
If this same procedure were applied
to the beef cattle industry an equal
distribution throughout the year
would be accomplished. It is now the
custom to have the calf crop in the
spring. If this were readjusted so
that in .the South and Pacific Coast
regions the calf crop could be had in
the fall, during the winter months
the production could be had from the
Middle West and in the spring from
the northern ranges this would spread
the calf crop .throughout the year and
would result in equalizing the supply
with the demand,
cattle now is toward the lighter and
younger animals so it is no longer
practical for the producer to hold nis
' beef cattle over a long period and
, thus adjust the supply to the demand,
1 However, with the proper distribution
of the calf crop the vounger finished
j animals could move to market in an
i orderly wav throughout the year
j somewhat along the same lines which
j have proven so satisfactory in the
sheep industry.
