The American Farm Bureau Federation is making the same ef
fort to protect its livestock growers as its grain growers. A plan has
now been launched for a cooperative livestock commission operated
by livestock producers throughout the middle and southwest. Ne
braska, Illinois and Minnesota are already operating. Plans are now
underway for Missouri, Colorado and Texas. The upper picture shows

the interests of the farmer and stock
raiser. There is too wide a margin
of profits between the prices paid to
producers for beef cattle or hogs and
the price of meat paid by the city
consumer. The operation of the
Omaha Cooperative Live Stock Com
mission Exchange has been so profit
able in the last year that fully C5 per
cent of the expenses for handling the
cattle and hogs at the Omaha yards
have been rebated to the members of
the cooperative exchange. As a re
sult the exchange is handling all the
livestock it is equipped to take care
of and will be enlarged to serve its
members.
President Howard, wants coopera
tive live stock commission offices to
have representation in every Live
Stock Exchange throughout the coun
try. There is too large a margin of
profit which now goes to the middle
man between the price of live stock
on the hoof and the price of meat
paid by the consumer. The producer
of late has been receiving around 7
to 10 cents a pound for hist steers at
the principal stock markets while the
price of meat in the cities ranges
from 30 to 50 cents a pound.

says the Good Judge
A man can get a heap more
satisfaction from a small chew
of this class of tobacco, t' an
he ever could get from a big
chew of the old kind.
He finds it costs less, too. The
good tobacco taste lasts so
much longer he doesn't need
to have a fresh chew nearly
as often.
Any man who uses the Real
Tobacco Chew will tell you
that.
