Distribution.
A list containing the names and addresses of 10,000 live-stock raisers
and breeders has just been received from the Minister of Agriculture of
Brazil. The list also gives the number of animals owned by each

Of the 10,000 breeders, 1,092 have 1,000 to 5,000 animals; 107 have
between 5,000 and 10,000; and 39 have more than 10,000. Three of this
latter group have 34,000 animals and one has 85,000. This list has been
classified according to the number of animals owned, made up in
mimeographed form, and will be sent to interested parties upon request.
The list does not show the breed or kind of live stock grown.
Similar lists of breeders in Uruguay, Argentina, Colombia, and Mexico
