Scott County Cattlemen Hear Market Grades and Beef Classes
Twenty five cattlemen met at the Evin Burke farm in Vandyser to learn about market grades and beef cattle classes. T A Ewing of the Missouri College of Agriculture and Simpson of the Producers Livestock Commission Company led the discussion. Ewing stressed the cow as herd foundation and the bull as the whole herd while noting calves from well bred bulls fetch higher prices and fat steers show substantial profits. Simpson urged investing in high quality feeders as safer than common stock, and noted fall purchase and spring sale of yellow hammers can profit stalk fields and forage.
