year:s old; grwln on the range on goV
empieite gWe .-with the minimum of f
labor, and could' finish them .off with'
corn, we felt that we were doing well,
a and so we were; but, unfortunately,
things began to change on the range.
The "nester" and the homesteader f
camo in. - The ranges were broken up. P
Bint, stil wobre for us, the ranchmen 9
began to disco.er that-by-growing al- b
fa fa underiIrrtgation; they could fat- ti
tbhn their cattle with the minimum- of t
corn,. and send theni to market in comn
petition with. ours. The result was
such a high price for feeding steers s
. that the profits in feeding in our old
wVaWy begaln to vanish. This explains i
ii.. i''otoin~ feed lots are empty. The "
,discovery that corn could be used for'
nin:y other. things besides finishing '
k.ttle 'phlse'd the price up so high that
the' problein of making money iu feed
ing cattle became a yery difficu t one. 1
Jhat.. is- the .gay. out? The only 1
Svway we see is to grow cattle on. cheap
er f e ;zl " -ch eatl tf eed after all-Ihe
is grasp, for' grassq :i? seif fuise iises
a balanced ration. Grass eliminates t
a lnrgs antount of labor.' The trouble
is that during these years we did not
tearn how to grow grass. We must
not only get out of the habit of feed
ing corn exclusively, but we must get
into the habit of growing grass .'as
certainly and cheaply as we can grow
corn. Natutala4y we must take the
deep rooted grasses, such as clover
and alfalfa.
If we are to continue to 'make
money in feeding cattle, we must feed
them more on grass. We must grow
a 'smaller acreage of corn and more
corn to the acre. We must utilise the
wiole crop, .and thus grow as .many'
bushels of corn on. the "farm as be
fore, 'and at'`tbe 'same. time grow the:;
grasses that we need to make chbap
beef.' The "great problem of the
farmer for the next 20, years is to
learn how to grow. grass, in 'order to
grow cattle cheaply. By doing this we
shall maintain soil fertility.
Beef cattle are going to sell high
for years to .come, but there is a limit
beyond which they can not go, for the
simple reason that men can not afford
to pay beyond a certain price. Any
interference with our manufaeotring
industries, any decrease. in the em
ploymenit of labor, limits 'the ability
of men 'to purchase, and hence muo
hold down the price of beef to a cer
tain point. .1e must aim to -furnish
cattle within that price and at the
same time have a' profit; and tle only
way we can do this is by growing them
cheaply. i'Vb can grow them more
chenply by growing. more roughage.
more sorghum, more' alfalfa, 'more
clover, putting in more silage, decreas
!ig ou" acreage of grain and inereas
.Ing thle yield by reason of having in
the stockyards the humus supply,
wbich alone will enabld us to increasae
the yield of grain plier acre.
In 'th4 meantime we must constant
: ly improve the quality of our cattle;
an. this, can best be done by develop
lig a system of community-breeding
it every neighborhood 'where Cattlr
growing is one of the chief features of
life on the farm. It does not pay to
feed even grass to a poorly lired steer.

m:lning a bee-line from grain-stasel to

WHY WAR IS BAD FORFARME.8
EVERYWHERE.
Dr, David Starr JQrdan, president of
,;eland Stanford university, writes an
'nteresting article in Farm and Fire- I
wide, entitled, 'fThe Farmer and War," td
t which he ahowAVafpw farmers every- 4
where, ,including. farmers of Anierica, b
'ese nas a result of. this war. He says
that we are all in the aiane 'boat and
that whatever hl4rmsa prosperity..i. one
..rt of the world 'injures. us all. For
'tome 'of 'hi:u Pifoduocs tit e Americdn o

"uying only -the .cheapest articles. In5
London, a month ago. the finest fruit c
was sold for next to nothing. In war ,
there is no demand for luxutes, no

lustry, no demand to buy, and amobg I
nillions of people nothing to buy with.
The Interest of one nation is the in- [
terest of atir so far as farmers and t
workmen are concerned; He goes on (
'n part as follows:
"The farmer 'has no greater en'my f
than *ar." The Wr of. t rday has its f
brimal motive, to ..keep the farmer q
town, It Is, at bottom, the. fight o' t
'irlde and .Privilege' against the corn- /
:non man. It is the last stand of im- r
'erialism against 'detboracy. 'It is the f

PVERITY'S FOE
OF THE MORMONS
Worucester, Dec. 26.-The elimination
pf poverty is the foremost aiin of
Frederick M. Smith, tile new a'ctinI
head of the Church rf Jesus Christ of
the Latter Day Saints, the reorganized
Mormon church. This young leader of
,~0,000 ohurch members has outlined a
campaign of social reform, and is Jormi
pleting his studies at Clark university
in order that he may be sufflicently
equipped in knowledge of philosophy
to put his ideas to practical test.
. Ypung Mr. Smith has been for somec
time the chief aid of his father, Presi

at independence, .Mo. Through the aid
of a secretary he will be able to re

with toe work of the church 'by means
