That is the opinion expressed Tuesday by J. B. Hutson, associate director of the food Production Administration in an address be fore farm leaders of North Caro lina, meeting at Greensboro for a conference on feed conservation and production. Discussing the current feed sit uation as it applies to North Ca rolina, Hutson =aid the livestock program that would return far mers the maximum quantity of nutrients from the feed available would place •• mphasis on dairying in areas adapted to milk pro duction and on be- i and sheep production in ran-- areas a d in other areas where pasture and roughage can be utiliz t to better advantage by beef cattle and sheep than by dairy cows. Dairy, poultry and hog production ,-hould all be emphasized in the grain produc ing areas. Citing the increase in livestock production, Hutson said the nation now his more livestock than at any previous time in the history of the country. “Altogether it is estimate dthat the units or num bers of grain consuming livestock on farms on January 1 of this year exceeded the number of farms the same date a year ear lier by 11 percent.” he declared. “In feeding all of this livestock, we will use as much feed as we produced in 1942, plus 250 to 300 million bushels of wheat. We can import some grain, but probably not enough to maintain livestock production at the high levil that will be reached before the er.1 of the year.” The American people, h e >vd, have made adjustments in their eating habits in the past. During tire last do years consumption of meat, for example, has fluctuated between lt>3 pounds pet person :n 1908 to 110 pounds per person in 1935. The feed grain situation, he pointed out, raises the additional | question as to how farms can best utilize their available feeds i:i the production of foods that will con tribute most to the nation’s diet. "There is a surprisingly wide range in the efficiency with which different types of livestock con vert hay and grain into human food. There is a wide range in the amount of labor necessary to bring about this conversion. If we pass for a moment the vita min.-. minerals and other minor elements recognized as highly es sential to satisfactory nutrition and concentrate, Instead, upon calories and proteins that can be obtain*-.! from concentrated feeds, we probably should rate the ani mal products as follows: milk consumed as fluid milk and milk solids, first; milk consumed as cheese, second; eggs third, chick ens, fourth; hogs, fifth; and fat steers, sixth. Turning to full utilization of a vailable protein food, he said that nutrition experts point out that the typical American diet can substitute vegetable proteins for about half of the proteins now ob tained from meat. “For example, we can produce five times as much protein per acre from an average yield of soy beans and six times as much pro tein from an average yield of peanuts as from an acre of feed fed to milk cows. The relative pro duction per acre of fats from di. rect food crops is almost equally as tsriking. We can get more fat per acre in the form of vegetable oils from either soybeans or pea nuts than we can get from feed grown on an equal acreage and fed to hogs and much more than we can get from feed grown and fed to milk cows.” The tremendous saving iri land and labor by direct conspmption of food products should be most reassuring to those who fear we will be faced with a scarcity of food. It is not too early, however to consider how far we should shift from growing crops to feed livestock to growing crops for di rect consumption, he concluded.

Such action will he costly, we know - costlv in men, mnitions and mon ey - but wars are never won by defensive measures. We have to take the offensive and strike hard fast and ruthlessly.

New Cattle Disease Now Found In State Several outbreaks of anapylas mosis, an infectious disease of cattle only, which is transmitted by carriers not at present located, has been reported in several sect ion- of North Carolina, according to Pr. C. l>. Urinnells, Experiment Station Ceterinarian at North Ca rolina State College. Records show that it has been diagnosed in more than twenty states. Pr. (Irinnells says that this new disease is carried from an infect ed to a negative animal by some fifteen species of ticks. It may also be transmitted by bleeding needles, vaccination needles and other surgical instrument-. Out breaks often follow dehorning op erations, castrations and other mi nor operations wheer the same instrument is used without ster ilization between animals.
