Overview

Excerpt from Beef Production in the East There is a great need for more beef cattle on Eastern farms. The advantages to be gained in the development of the enterprise here are each year becoming better known. To increase the number of beef animals does not mean that the dairy herds should be diminished, for we cannot get along with a less amount of milk, butter or dairy products, and an increasing amount will each year be required. The production of milk and the successful maintenance of a dairy herd require conditions not to be found on the majority of Eastern farms. The location must be favorable for ship-ping or convenient to collecting stations. The land must lend itself to intensive cultivation economically. Buildings and equipment of the most modern type are required in order to conform with necessary sanitary conditions imposed to properly protect the health of the communities to which the product is shipped, and to keep to a minimum the expense for labor which must be watched so closely in this enterprise. None but dairy cattle bred for high production can be profitably employed in the herd. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
