Rex Beresford Ames extension animal husbandry professor tells 135 Linn county cattle feeders at Memorial hall Marion that meat and livestock prices should edge higher in 1941 due to reduced pork supply, similar total meat tonnage, and larger payrolls. He notes cattle on feed rise 11 percent in the corn belt and 20 percent in Iowa, with more cattle likely to be sold but warns no livestock boom.
