Live Stock Industry of Texas
Iluiit Up by Improved Blood.
The. Fat Stock Show st Fort.
Worth, November 22-38, i-> one of
the mos-t potential agencies that is
working for the upbuilding of the
Texas frivestock industry. It points
owt the pathway of progress to
feeders and breeders- and presents
lining lessons of profits and iff-tua!
demouetations of the advantages ot
higher types in clause1! and breeds,
1 he scarcity of the world's meat sup-
ply has brought the livestock indus-
try into the limelight and the neces-
sity for increasing the herds and im-
proving rhe grades i.< one of the
Wat important ec<uto;>:io problems
o'f the day.
The Texas pjct of a quarter ol
century ago, compared w j I i> fho
present thorouglrbrM4, j>-'e::ts the
must convincing argument ia favor
of good lncc.bng iho %•.:>rI;I po->
S'^pcs. From wild, dnugcroua and
worthless beasts of the plains, they
have become cultured, docile and
profitable. These dumb 'arnica have
ko completely mastered tho science
of breeding that they have remodeled
thtjv shape, reformed their habit'
and rebuilt their character. Each
generation has contributed toward
the uplift of the breed, nutil today
Mie cattle have more purple blood in
their veins than any other family of
the animal kingdom.
Tuey can teach the human race
many lessons in the science of im-
proved lineage, By carefully con-
forming to the laws of nature, they
have bred out deformities of flesh
and blood. Their blood, which once
made weak and scrubby stock, now
produces rich and powerful thor-
oughbreds. tfach breed is known by
the color it keeps, by its distinct
type and purpose iu life.
This work lias been accomplished
largely through the instrumentality
of tho National Feeders' and Breed-
ers' Show, which holds it Eighteenth
annual meeting at Fort Worth on
November 22-28, and new models
and higher standards w IIP bo taught
at the coming convention. During
this time each annual meeting has
guaged and registered tiie advance-
ment of tho livestock industry of
Texas and it is here the leaders of
all classes and breeds assemble to re-
port progress to the management.
Ktjut ytfar has been one of glorious
triumph but, none will eclipse tho
present aggregaation of thorough-
bred:;!
The razor-back hog has been
forced by the thoroughbreds to flee
to the mountains and the distance
they have traveled each year is
measured and recorded by the judges
of the Ft. Worth Fat Stock Show.
For eighteen years the National
Feeders' and Breeders' lmve held
the tape line of progress on this in-
dustry and the exhibits on Novem-
ber 22-28 promise to more nearly
approach perfection and extend
through a much wider range of
breeds than any previous exhibits.
No other animal ever made suc'i
concessions to the market as has
the hog., lie has given half his life
to meet the demand "for young stock
and has surrendered the freedom of
fore-ts for the shackles of the pen
where fat can be produced, with the
greatest ecenomy. The human race
has made no such sacrifices for suc-
cess as has this dumb brute.
The new hog has become so pop-
ular with the housewife that we con-
sume all of our home production and
ship in $24,00,000 of pork ami its
products per annum. He is one of
the best revenue producers in the
animal kingdom, and has shown an
increase in value per head during the
past five years of $2.80. The stn-.
tislics of the Federal Department of
Agriculture pay a glowing tribute
to the growing popularity of the
Texas hog, and show tt decrease of
approximately a million head in
number and an increase of oyer $2,-
000,000 in aggregate valuo. We are
traveling rapidly on the road of ex-
termination of the swine industry
in Texas, and the National Breed-
ers' will make an exhibit nt the Fat
Stock Show that will seek to turn
the tide. It is one of the missions
of the management to balance pro-
duction and consumption, and no
more effective methods can be em-
ployed to encourage hog raising than
to exhibit the leaders of the swine
family to the farmers of Tc\as.
King Cotton has had the audacity
to counterfeit some of the by-pro-
ducts of the hog, but Uncle Sam
caught him in tho act and"passed
a pure food law and the subjects ot
the king are now compelled to nmrcW
under their own flag and parade
uuder their own colors.
