Excerpt from Foreign Crops and Markets, Vol. 16: January 30, 1928 Canadian cattle have good year: The Canadian cattle market of 1927 was one of the most favorable in the history of the industry, according to recent official statements. The good market in the United States for both cattle and beef was an outstanding factor in providing prosperity fdr Canadian producers. The number of cattle marketed, at Canadian stocks yards, however, was practically the same as that of 1926. Excluding the war years, 1927 brought the highest prices on record in Canada in relation to production costs, with all classes of cattle sharing in the strong price situation. Conditions in the United States at the end of 1927 have led Canadian producers to anticipate a continued strong demand for their products in this country, Cattle shipments to the United States for 1927 exceeded those of the preceding year by 120 per cent, While beef exports to this country increased 200 per cent. Further sharp declines occurred in the eiports'of Canadian cattle and beef to Great Britain. Detailed figures covering cattle and beef and other animals and their products appear on page 144.
