IfASTS OF TllE CATTLE MEN ferry Bimpion and Bartlett Riohards Talk on Lett ng of the Range. (TATE ASKED TO MAKE EXPERIMENTS tri of Association Elreled for anlac Year Sin Meetlng Scheduled to Be Held k at Alliance. , CRAWFORD, Neb.. May 13. (Special Tel gram.) At an evening eesalon of the Ne braska Stock Grower' association held here last night Prof. Burnett spoke at some length on tbe purpose of the experiment itatlcn, recited some of the benefits ac irulng frotn its experimental wtrk and Suggested that as the conditions and ne cessities of the western portion of the state ire widely different from those of the astern part, In which the station la lo cated. It la impossible for this station to Conduct experiments of value to the west ind. He proposed that range men demand that there be established a sub-ststion, located In the range country, at which the experimental work be confined to subjects closely connected with the range Interests. Dr. Peters Indorsed the rec ommendation, adding that the western men pad only to ask for It to get It. Dr. Peters made a few statements Concerning the department of animal pa thology, saying that It was second to that Of no other state. He announced that a bulletin would soon be Issued giving some Important Information secured during the bast season. Dr. Thomas, . state veterinarian, made a few remarks concerning treatment for lice. Itch and mange. . This morning President Delatour opened with an address on the objects of the organisation and the duties of members. He stated brand Inspection Is conducted at the principal markets to prevent theft. Last year Inspection was made through the Wyoming organization at an expense of $2,400. A contract has been made for the work of the coming year, with ad ditional Inspectors, for 13,000. One ttundred and twenty thousand cat tle owned by members of this associa tion were Inspected last year. He urged the need of all cattlemen having their Ibrands recorded at , Lincoln and touched upon overstocking ranges, removal of fences, lease law, and the uselessness of the present homestead law. Organisation la Xecessary. ' Hon. Jerry Simpson, the one-time Kansas congressman, made an address as a representative of the National Cattle Growers' association, aaylng the livestock Industry was one of the leading Industries of the United States. He said that modern invention had revolutionized society and brought about the system of combinations ia business matters and that cattlemen xnust protect themselves by also forming an organisation to protect and forward their Interests. He noted the work of the national organisation In tbla direction. He characterised the recently passed oleo margarine law aa vicious and harmful and las legislation, solely In the interest of he creamery men. .He stated that while ft his bill was founded on false argument Its passage was due to the persistent effort of a most .thoroughly organised body and urged tbla In favor of the more com plete organisation of cattlemen. He thought the oleo bill would effect a reduc tion of $3 per bead In the selling price of tattle, aa that amount represented the por tion ot the carcass utilized in the produc tion of -ato?.;; The disposition of the public domain (was referred to as a question of growing Importance. There are now (00,000,000 acres of public land of which possibly one-third might be reclaimed by or subject to Irri gation. The remainder ta useless, even worthless, ha stated, tvept for grazing purpose. He said that the "pernicious activity ot a Rip Van Winkle in the De partment of the Interior In overturning the established system of securing pub lic lands was working untold barm to the rattle Interests of western Nebraska and Other range sections. The law waa a dis organizer of conditions, of Interests In volving a capital of more than $4,600,000,000. It waa the means of driving hundreds ot cattlemen to the more favorable conditions offered by the Canadian government." He criticised the present homestead law because It made It Impossible for the homesteader to take government land In good faith. He sstd he was In favor ot public ownership of all lands and a gen eral lease system, citing . the leasing ot school lands aa an argument In hla favor. Want avn Appropriation. A resolution was adopted petitioning the tate legislature to appropriate $6,000 to be expended by tb state experiment station under the direction of tbe Board ot Re gents ot the State Agricultural college In experiments with grasses and forage plants suited to the rangea.

Mr. Richards gave an account of the ex perience of the committee which went to Washington tor the purpose ot urging ths passage of lesse law. He thinks the fences must come down and that there la no chance for the lease law in congress. President Roosevelt and many prominent men suggested a bill specially for Nebraska and believed it could be passed. Mr. Rlcn arCa favored auch a bill and made, strong argumenta In lie behalf.
