Stock Raising and Mixed Farming in Manitoba Rise Again
The Winnipeg Free Press reports renewed growth in cattle ranching and mixed farming. More stock growers and farmers visit swarkgs weekly for breeders and feeders, with shipments to the west from local stock yards active. From January to February 1937, 741 head were traded locally, with 30,000 head moved countrywide last year. Receipts at Union Yards exceed last year, attracting buyers from Alberta and Saskatchewan aided by federal rail and hotel cost coverage and reduced freight rates. Banks lend, and the effort aims to keep stock-growing profitable rather than send cattle to slaughterhouses. Some prime beef goes to eastern Canada as western stocks head south or east.
