LOOKING TO THE FUTlMtK
Perhaps you, Mr. Farmer and Stock
Ralsor, read with more or less lntorcst
tho article entitled "Southern Farms
and Ranches" which appeared In the
February 21th and 27th Issues of The
Semi-Weekly Tribune. 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
