the horse meat

n, those of us will"! production oi horse meat the sup- ply and prospect this summer and m-ly this fall promises to be much mailer in relation to the demand mm it was last year and a rise u, m; price oi horse meat appears

mevitahle.

For one thing the demand for horse meat is substantially larger m; year than it was last year. This increase has been brolIBhI about first by‘ a tremend in- crease in demand for horse meat for human consumption and sec- ond by an increase in the num- her of fox and mink being raised this year. Horse meat has always been an article of diet among cer- mn population groups. particu- larly among the people of Belgian. Flemish and French extraction liv- in; along the Atlantic coasts and more recently among people on the Pacific ooast. The demand for horse meat for human con- gum," has pushed upward by mp; and bounds during the last several months because of the shortage of bee! and pork in the metropolitan areas.

I Thare are no figures available lo measure the increase in the use of horse meat ss a food ior

is great. It may be safely esti- mated that the private storage lants were filled to capacity dur-

g last. fall and that there is at least as much meat in private stor- age today as there was at time a year earlier.

The amount oi horse mast and other animal food cold storage was about B per cent llflﬂ’ 011 April 1st than ‘it was a year ago, but ilthiillh the stocks of animal food are larger than those in storage a year ago the surplus is not large enough to take care of the increase in demand fol- meat.

The packing plans with which I am associated is .1 plant of this kind and the num- ber oi horses slaughtered in ii will be about 200 per cent more than was slaughtered last year. This figure is probably higher than the increase in other such plants but it is reasonable to as- sume that all packing plants wil ‘slaughter more horses this year than last year.

With the reduced supply of horses in prospect and an. in- creasing demand for horses the pressure is almost certain to push the price of horses higher in the months ahead. This conclusion lsl based on a study oi conditions and is supported by the opinion oi our buying agents in the west and in Canada who are in close contact with buying conditions. The sup-

man. It is estimated by good judges to be about 25 er cant higher on the part of min ranch-

ers and from 5 to l0 per cent high- er on the part of fox ranchers than it was a year ago. The de- mand for horse meat is decidedly seasonal. being relatively low from the pelting season until bits and pups are born. From that point the demand for meat expands (our to five times and continues at that rate until the next pelt- lug. The full effect of the in- crease in demand will not be felt until next summer when we look forward to a pronounced increase in the demand for horse meat.

Many fur ranchers have their own freezers capable of holding anywhere from a iew days‘ sup- ply to the entire season's require- ments. Other ranchers make use of commercial cold storage ware- hcupes for the storage oi horse meat. 1t has been the custom of

fur farmers to fill their freezers as soon as possible in the fall in order to secure for themselves an adequate supply of horse meat for the following summer when it is “"°-l1l'__'-!°¥.'°_°.._m_._d iha.v¢_¢s..1<>!.ll I -"__"" ' '~_

As war industries turn to the production of farm mechanized equipment after the war still mo‘: horses will be disposed of from the farm and the downward trend in horse production will prob- ably continue for several .’I‘he number of horses in C also has declined.
