The writer has lived twenty -one years in Kai sas and four years in Coloiado. Ho has been cunnecttd for thirteen years with the Kansas and Colorado aggricultural cedb ges, for nine years making special invest iga lion of the raifii g f dry land crops and feeding these crops lor the production of meat and milk. He has travu.ed thousands 'of miles from Mexico to Nebraska investigating the methods and results secured lioin dry land fanning m different sections. He has seen hundreds of farm era move from th coin belt to the plains, work hard, have fail urea year after year, lose every dollar and, wors1; of all,' their courage, and finally leave on money sent by tin ir friends? . He lias seen other men move lo the same locality, often to the same farms, and tdeaelily prosper, fi nally buiidmg goi d homes and comfortable barns, and sending their children to college. The majority of men who have sue ceeded in dry land farming have depended on liw stock; ihe ina jority vvhj have laile . h b. . n exclusive gram gro .vers. i he settler m limited means should start his work on a dry land farm with a herd of ten or morn cows.

It is very rarely that these crops fail, even in the dryebt seasons, if good seed is properly put in. In an average beasoi. one and a half acres of this feed is sufficient to feed a dairy cow through the winter if she has fcoino range. Careful farmers in the dry land sections with well Selected cows get an averago yearly iu- c ino ol )() to .$;,) 'i cow. Cai e le?s fanners with poor c nvs get as low as M2 a year a cow.
