Egg markets Saskatchewan livestock excerpts from report of the i livestock cattle statistics show that there has been a very slight decrease in the number of. Cattle in the province during past year and it is Likely that there will be a further decrease this year due to the shortage of feed during he past Winter. Tor cattle Are slightly Bel ter than they Vitere a year ago and More cattle Are being shipped to Tho British Market each year. In 1323 we shipped head of cattle to great Britain. This was increased in 1924 to and it is quite pos sible that nearly head will be shipped to great Britain in 1925. Our shipments to the United states in 1323 amounted to and in 1024 to s7.847, so that there was practically no increase in shipments to that Market. Regarding stokers and feeders the commissioner states there has been a decrease in the number of stockers and feeders marketed at Winnipeg during each of the past two years and while Jnore of them have been shipped West fewer them have been shipped to the untied slates and also fewer have been shipped Back to the farms.
