"In a general way this is true. It should be distinctly remem- bered, however, that for the classes of cattle required by Great Britain j the export trade has established or, stabilized Canadian prices. In other words the British market has pulled up Canadian prices to the same level, costs of shipping con- sidered. This has been proven In two shipments made by the Domin- fon Experimental Farms this sea- son. If the price of cattle in Can- Canada is equal to net export prices, this benefit is directly due to the removal of the embargo." Same Deductions. Brief deductions from this periment are made as follows: 1. Uniformity of groups is a most important faotor in successful sale, 2. The British feeder likes best a bullock that is young enough and spare enough to grow and fatten at the same time. 3. The lighter spring shipped feeder steer may go forward 'from February to April, to finish off grass as fat in August or Septem- ber. During April, May and June the "short keeps' or cattle forward in condition will find a market pro- vided they will develop not more than an 800 1b. carcase when sub- ject to a "short keep" following period. The short keep, fat or butcher steer, when exported, re- presents a heavier investment ex- (greater feed cost) to the shipper and is frequently a riskier proposi- tion, Shipping the fbeder steer that hag been developed largely on grass and home grown moughage with 1lit- tle concentrates involves minimum risk on the pert of the shipper and allows the British feeder to do the gambling. 4. The time of shipment, there- fore, has much to do with the weight and age of steer to ship. The young light weight steer is very popular as indicated by this experi- ment. The economy of shipping the 900 1b. steer is doubtful. Speaking generally the butch®r or retail type of steer commands the highest . price when fat. The British dealers | Ike the handyweight butcher steer. just as in Canada. The shipper would do well, therefore, in select- ing steers that would land in Eng- land weighing not greatly in excess of 1,250 Ibs. 5. Horned cattle are at a dis- | tinot d isadvantage. 6." Branding on the ribs is de- cidedly objectionable. 7. Finally, it may once more be pointed out that Great Britain need not be considered as a . profitable outlet for the common butcher steer, of which there is too great a pe tage on car markets. Breeding herds of beef cattle in Canada cannot be allowed to de- teriorate if we are to cater to and | make a name for ourselves on the British market.
