‘Farm Livestock
| Is Diversified
|
(From page one)
On the other hand, a 11 per cent, de-
creace in number of heifers from one
to two years old on farms compared
with two years ago, leads to the be-
lief that many farmers intend to de-
crease their dairy herds or at least to
discontinue expansion.
If these tendencies to raise or feed
sheep, horses and beef
| cattle, continue, Pennsylvania will
| again experience a somewhat more
| balanced livestock industry such as
| has characterized the Commonwealth
through most of its 250 years’ exis.
tence as a great agricultural colony
and State, officials believe.
Retains High Rank
While shifting away from swine,
beef, sheep, cattle and horses during
the past two decades, Pennsylvania
has retained the rank of the eleventh
among the states in total value of the
livestock on farms, not considering
poultry in which this Commonwealth
takes a foremost rank, but for which
1931 estimates are not available at
this time. The states outranking
Pennsylvania in livestock are Ohio,
New York, Illinois, Wisconsin, Minn-
esota, Jowa, Nebraska, Kansas, Texas
and Missouri.
The total value of horses, mules,
cattle, sheep and swine was estimat-
ed at $110,125.000 on January 1 this
year, compared to $136,093,000 on the
corresponding date a year ago. At
the beginning of 1330, the estimate
was $178,449,000; 1929, $181,149,000;
1928, $165 000,000; 1927, $138,000,000;
1926, $145,000,000; 1925,
1924, $157,000 000; 1923,
1922, $160,000,000, and 1921,
000.000.
