Taylor: . -Some Livestock are moving to marKets in uian every any m the year. The biz fall rush will get underway in the next few weeks. Marketing losses due to death, crippling, and bruising as well as other miscellaneous causes to 95 million dollars last year. These losses represent either direct or indirect costs to the livestock producer. Losses in marketing are somewhat like the game "now you have it, now you don't."

Tn a recent livestock market- ing conference, both railroad of ficials, truckers and packers indicate that much of this loss has its origin on the farm, and people in channels of marketing can do nothing about many of these items. A Utah trucker emphasized the factUhat livestock in Utah frequently call on him to truck their livestock to market, but when he arrives at the farm, there are no loading facilities dt the loading facilities are in a bad shape. It was his pro-duce- rs could opinion that producers make dollars for themselves by adtaking a few minutes to build facilities. equate loading conRough handling results in indias siderable loss each year cated by the above table. Packers are forced to do rather extensive trimming of large numbers of carcasses because of rough handling which began on the farm and extended all through market channels. It is obvious that packers cannot pay for damaged meat. Although one individual producer may not feel the effects of such losses, these losses are taken into account by packers when buying , livestock and the price to the producer makes necessary allowance for such losses Lookin? at these animal loss figures, there seems to be ample incentive for producers, truckers, . and People in the'mej handle livestock Witr word of caution by J men. packers and otW more dollars for ea- -' DO YOUR OWN LAUNDRY WITH THE Automatic Washer at the rer of 30 Cafe, SEE MRS.
