"Out where the West begins” is
where important food for war
begins too.
The thundering herds of our
western ranges stand for a basic
food men eat to fight on, men eat
to work on.
When the war cry went out for
meat and still more meat, western
ranchers, stockmen and farmers
responded by raising the greatest
number of beef cattle, hogs and
sheep in the history of our country.
Put her there,
partner! You’re
doing a great job in
that fighting Home
on the Range!
