Governor’s Proclamation Hails State Grange
Adopt Beef Cattle
As New Farm Crop
There’s something new in
Dixie. Lush Bermuda grass
pastures are spreading
throughout the South and it
is being eaten by beef cows
and calves.
Today, ten southern states
rank cattle production among
their top two agricultural in
dustries, with beef calves the
top farm-income maker in six
states and second in four
more.
Bill Culp, a New Holland
equipment dealer in Bossier
City, La., can see a general
improvement in farming in
the South since cattle ranch
ing was introduced a few
years ago. This optimistic
viewpoint is shared by many
of his customers, including
Jess Loyd, banker and
rancher.
Mr. Loyd is vice president
of the First National Bank of
Shreveport. He says that he
knows how the cattle business
is growing in Louisiana be
cause his bank is financing
much of the expansion on
local ranches.-
