The total supply of beef now in feedlots is about the same as it was a year ago. These facts are apparent from a recent government report of cattle on feed. The official report covers the three most important cattlefeeding states -- Iowa, Illinois an£ Nebraska. On Oct. 1 farmers in these threes states were boardijjg^ 325,000 head of steers, heifers and other beef-makers. This number is 3 per cent more than the 1.288,000 head at the feed bunks at tile same time last year.. " . ,/ Each successive quarterly report this year shows a smallei increase over corresponding 1952 figures of cattle on feed. The Jit*, l report showed an increase of* SO per cent; Apr. 1, 21 per cent; July 1, 9 per cent; and now, Oct. 1, 3 per cent. Average weight of cattle in feedlots Oct. 1 was 3 per cent less, than a year before. Thus the total tonnage of beef being fattened for the nation's dinner tables is about the same as it last year. Only one kind of cattle -- heifers - Shows an increase in numbers on feed. All other classes show decreases. Heifers on feed Oct. 1 numbered 316,000 against only 223,000 a year before. Steers were down from 982,000 to 956,000. Calves on feed dropped from 71,000 to 46,000. All of the reported increase in numbers was in long-feds -- tie that had been in the feedlot more than six months.

Stratton reiterateJir pected to market cattle earlier his determination to "clean up and reorganize" the state Department of Public Welfare, following a series of thefts from welfare institutions. Stealing from such an institution, the governor said, "really amounts to taking food from the mouths of unfortunate wards of the state." The governor went on to say that Director Bettag uncar for the I covered these irregularities, and pointed out that the persons implicated have been dismissed from sta£e service. He said civil, service cannot be used as a cloak for incompetence and dishonesty. Governor Stiatton expressed full confidence In Dr. Bett-tg, and declared, he woald back lip the director in his efforts to put the department on a clean, efficient basis. than they reported last fall. This year they expected to ship 76 per cent of their cattle before Ja»r 1 compared with only 69 pei*. dent last year. ifyfpois farmers were feeding nearly as many cattle on Oct. 1 as they were feeding a year befitf* 320,000 against 330,000 in 1952. Nebraska farmers also were feeding less - 312,000 .compared with 328,000 last year. Iowa feeders more than made up the difference with 693,000. whereas they were feeding only 620,000 a year ago. The next important survey of cattle on feed will be Jan. 1 The report will be released in Washington about tvra topeks later. the Want Ads CHICAGO PREPARES FOR LIVE STOCK till SHOW THIS FALL 4 , " Agriculture's greatest annual event will celebrate its fiftyfourth renewal as plans are made for the 1953 International Live Stock Exposition and Horse Show.

GOOD RECOBDS - 5,' NECESSARY FOB TAX REPORTING / ' I "District Director* of Internal ' Revenue have been authorized by Internal Revenue Commissioner T. Coleman Andrews to serve appropriate notices on persons who have not maintained, for the purpose of correctly reporting taxes, records as required by law and regulations," E. J- Sauber, district director, Chicago, said this week.,, "In the case of. the average taxpayer the keeping of such records is not at all difficult," Director Sauber stated, "but I do want to point out at this time that such records must be kept. Those taxpayers who have not done 00 should start now getting their cancelled checks, invoices, bills, receipts and other evidence of income and expenses together so they will be prepared to file their income tax forms well before the deadline next March 15. "Although the Internal Revenue district office will do everything it xan to help taxpayers fill out forms properly arm to answer their questions in .the next few months, we will have much more time to be helpful in January and February' than we will when the early March rush arrives;" the director added. M«st people should have no difficHjty Jai filling out their tax forms properly if they luve kept simple records or have other evidence of income and expenses and will read carefully the instructions which will accompany the tax forms when they are ready for distribution about Dec. 15 at the district office here," he explained. "However, for those who do have questions they can't answer from the instructions, we will have agents available ?n this office for personal interviews and to answer telepnene inquiries," he, said. "Some taxpayers will have questions about new babies, medical expenses, part time employment, the cost of baby sitteirf, alimony, support, pensions, retirements and such situations as apply to servicemen and their wives. We will give them all the help we cdh,' j of course, but we can be very much more helpful quickly if they have their records or other evidences such as cancelled checks and receipts on hand when they want to discuss their problems." Internal ' Revenue Director Sauber also pointed out two other tax obligations due this month: Quarterly payments on incofaie taxes covering preceding year for decendenf s estates, and Quarterly return and payment (by depositary receipts or cash) of tarfes withheld by employers during the preceding quarter. (Due October 31.) If tax for each month is deposited on time, return may be filed by 10th day of second month followelost of the quarter. ; " E. J. SAUBER.
