unAixr. in
tjucjx or iusun cattle
There is a diapaiiljr in irici of cattle sold
on the range tki mn. Young cattle ell
at few dollars Um ltn beef cattle. The
abundance of monej reeling investment is
the jirime raii'e c Jrgh prices; but unlet
lef cattle advance wilbia (be nut year or
two, lho inxiple wbo invested this year
will find their prcfi's tinall. On this ques
tion of iifgh prlcw tl.e Kansas City Com
mercial Indicttor sajs: Tbe statements
Kivcn in the Indicator from time to time, Of
(he hili prices vtbicli are being paid for
cattle upon the ranges of tbe Kent, bare
cauVed considerable comment, and the ques
tion ia frequently a'ltd, hj euch tbould
be the ca'e? It is an etlallulied fitt that
large amounts of monej bate hi hi made
within ths lint eight years by owners of
Urge ranches in the New West, and that the
profit have been large lias caii'ed the in
vestment of vast eutaa of raonrr, not onlv
from the eastern portion of tbe United States
but alo from Europe. The demand for
ram;i' cattle ba, within the pait year, ei
ceedeil the supply, and this has been one
cause of tbe advance in prices
I!ut whtn we come to consider the imme
diate ciue of the advanced juices of cittle
on the ranges of the New Weft, it is found
that tbe last winter wis tbe severe?! known
for years, and if ever the losses of cattle,
unprotected and allowed to shift for them
eolves, were to lie large then should the
lure have been heavy during the winter of
1SS0.S1. But such hat cot been the caso.
The losses iiave been small,and this inform
ation has been conveyed to the capitalists ol
ihcKast by owners of railroads, whose rail
roads traverse the cattle growing regions of
the Weft, and this has stimulatfd a demand
from that quarter. Ilanchmcn fetl more en
couraged this year than evir before, and
tbcf have good reason to feel so.
.1 SEW MEXICO SHEEP J!ASC1I.
Some idea of tbe extent of eheep raising
in New Mexico may be inferred by the fol
lowing from the Ked Itiver Chronicle: G.
W. Stoneroad, of Cabra Springs, baa tbe
largest and Left herd of fine Merino theep
in New Mexico. The iloct, including rams
and "ethers, runs up to 21,000. This year's
Iambi will increase tbe herd by 0,500. Tbe
spring dtp of wool aggregates teirly 120,
000 pounds, or n fraction over five pounds
per bead. This, at tbe present low price of
wool evm, will fetch not less than 20,000;
about a dollar tier bead. We will not miss
tbe mark very far by asserting that this may
be considered the income of the ranch for
this retr, a tbe sale of fice rams and mut
ton sheep Hill realize enough to defray the
year's expenses of the estate. The Cabra
Springs ranch is the model sheep farm of
New Mexico. Everything is carried on sys
tematically, and gives satisfactory proof that
theory and practice go hand in band. Mr.
toneioid is an old hand in the sheep hui-
ne's, having been engaged formerly iu stock
raiing in California.
A new scores of water tupply in the vast
decrt mountain ranges of California and
Arizona is worthy of note. No rain falls
over a wide area. It is covered with cactus
plants of every variety, and they are juicy.
Millions of land tortoises feed on thee
plants, and the Indians make soup of them.
Inside of each is an anatomical tank that
holds about a pint of ater. Many are cut
open to get at tbis tank. The water is palat
able. Thus meat and drink are supplied,
and the dry cactus mjke excellent fuel.
The liw rf compensation is here forcibly
illuitrated.
