Unded ordi nary circumstances wisdom would forbid comparison and contrasts be tween different section of tho country but in tho present case the Intorest of humanity at largo makes It a duty not to bo evaded. Unless Northorn nnd Western cattle men can provide am ple feed and water beyond all chanco of falluro, It seems tho part of good judgment and sound business sense for them to move their hords to ro glons whoro these Important olo ments aro always available Wo do not bellovo that any of our frlonds In tho livestock business In this section olf tho country,, or any othor business man, will arguo against the logic of this position. These men aro facing n condition In which sentiment cannot be Dormltted to enter. As an exam pie wo call your attention to tho drouth which nrovalled In the states of Wyoming and Montnna during 'the1 past year, which made it necessary for stock to be transferred to other sec tions of tho country for feeding nt an enormous expense, or sold at a great sacrifice. Tho small farmer who ralBC3 ami finishes only a few head of good stock annually may provide water and feed very often- with tho greatest dif ficulty and heart-breaking cxpenso, but the great cattle and sheep owners who aro trying to furnish beef, mut ton and breeding stock on a largo scale,1 men who need largo areas for pasturago and much water, cannot much longer continue under the strain thoy have endured. There Is a way out of his dlloma, and It loads to SOUTHERN FARMS AND RANCHES.
