P.E.I. Department I LIVESTOCK REVIEW Livestock farmers as a group had a better income, during the ‘ first half of this year, than they I " have had in any comparable period since 1951. Their improv ed situation has been the result of (a) a cyclic downturn in beef production in the United States which has reduced the total amount of meat available on the North American continent and stimulated a rise in the levels of meat and livestock prices, and (b1 a further increase in Canad- ian livestock output which has grown steadily heavier since 1963. Prices of livestock at public Stockyards during January-June this year averaged almost ten per cent higher than a year ear- lier according to a price index published by the Dominion Bur- eau of StatistiCs. Also, farm out- : put of livestock is estimated to have increased 14 per cent. Con- sequently, fanm cash income tram sales of livestock was sharply 4 higher than in January June 1957 (Talble 1). Regionally, the gains in Saskat- chewan, the greatest gain-s hav- ing occurred in the three prairie provmces. Retail meat prices have risen more rapidly than prices of most j other tood ltems during the past year and, accordingly, most peo- L pie have bought less meat. Do- mestic disappearance per person "country, but could not satisfy of Agriculture during J mushy-August was about 3.0 per cent lower than a year earlier, but, owing to an increase 'in Canada’s population, total do— umestic disappearance was prac- tically unchanged. CA’I'l‘IJE I _ The Canadian cattle situation so far this year has been dominat ed by two pairs of comolementary factors: (1) the cyclic down-turn in beef production in the United States coupled with record-«break- ing production in Canada; and (2) the super-abundance of feed in the United States coupled with below average yields of grain and fodder on the Canadian prair— ies. The downturn of beef produc- tion in the United States, with no compensating decline in the de- mand for beef caused a substan- tial increase in prices of finish- ed cattle. This, in conjunction with the bumper crops of grain and roughage, provided a strong incentive for United States farm- ers to rebuild their herds, thus a strong incentive for Canadians 1beef and all classes of Canadian beef cattle developed in the Unit- ed States, a demand to which the Canadian industry was pleased to respond owing partly to the tighter fodder stiuation in this even with the help of Mexico and overseas meat exports.

Numbers of steers and beef heI Ifers declined more heavily than other classes of cattle, particu- larly in the prairie provinces, as a result of the heavy flow of slaughter and feeder cattle to the United States during the previous 12 months. However, numbers of ’beef COWS increased in the three main cattle producing provinces (Ontario, Saskatchewan and Al berta) and numbers of calves in- creased in the four western pro- vinces, thus maintaining a high potential for Canada as a whole. FEEDER SALES Net marketings (commercial output) of cattle during January- August were substantially great- er than a year earlier. Regional- ly, increases occurred in every province, ranging from ten per cent in Alberta to 34 per cent in NovaJHScotia. Seasonally, the in- crease was most 'prOnounced in the first quarter; by August monthly marketings were ac- tually lower than a year earlier. «Also. feeder sales expanded sharply, appai'cnily at IIl(‘ cx — pense of medium and common slaughter cattle. Marketings of good and choice ca-iile. bulls and _ cows were also higher. Although inspected slaughter up to September 20 was lower " than a year earlier. the number of choice and good carcasses graded showed an increase. Con— sequently the proportion in these two lop grades increased from 40 to 42 per cent of total kill. During January » August 1957, Canadians consumed nearly as . much beef as the nation‘s tarm- ' ers produced. but this year. with v output and prices both higher — domestic disappearance fell to only 82 percent of net marketings, the remaining 18 per cent repre- senting net expont volume. No great change in this situation is r expected before the year‘s end. Exports of cattle to the Unit— ed States, up to September 27 this year, totaled 34 thousand head, almost four times as many as a year earlier. Perhaps the most interesting recent develop ment in the export trade has . been the heavy increase in ship- ~ ments of feeder cattle in the 200 tic/700 lb. weight classification. ‘ This may be attributed to the liberal supplies of calves on Cana- dian farms and to the strong United States demand for cattle for “long feed.” HIGH PRICES This strong demand in the Uni- ed States. together with limited supplies, has forced prices of re- (Continued on Page 11) QUEEN IN POME ROME (Reuters)-Queen- Zeln. mother of King Hussein of Jor- dan, arrived here from Switzen land Monday on her way to the Jordanian capital of Amman.

But he gave no indication of what the new proposals might be eiccept that they would be aimed at reconciling the trading inter- ests of the six - nation “Little Europe’T Common Market with those of the other 11 nations Ibe- longing to the Organization for European Econ-mic Cooperation.
