Uptrend In Live- stock Industry

OITAWA, April 15.—The recent sales of pure bred bulls in western Canada are being regarded as s. definite b-rcmetc indicating an upward swing in the livestock in- dimtry. Reports reaching the De- partment of Agriculture from these sales receive careful study. They weia held in Brandon, Regina, Call gary and Idmonton.

The prices paid by ranchers for pure bred bulls indicate the confid- ence they have in the luture oi the cattle business since thsss bulls were brought to improve stock on the ranges. In the sales, and par- ticularly ln the Calgary sale, higher prices were paid than in former years. One bull in Calgary brought a tcp price oi 01,500 according to information officials have received.

Senator D. E. Riley. a rancher himself, regarded favorably many recommendations of the Price Spreads Commission for helping Rio industry.
