AGreat Stock Raiser.

The Chicago Press states that beef packing
firm in that city have during the past season,
paid over to David Strawn, of Ottowa, s47,951
So for bceves of his own feeding
Mr.. Strawn is q native of Perry countv. Ohio
He has been twenty niue years q resident of ILL
nois, and has resided for niuatseu years ON his
present farm in La Sale county four miles
from Ottawa. He is Al years of age. lie com
menced nineteen years ago., as the owner of 500
acres of land, bought al 81 p Per acre, stocked

The Press adds:
Mr.. Strawn is now the owner of sercn hoxsaml
acres of improved land, worth. on an average,
twenty five dollars an acre. or a total of175, 900.
lie has fed TO the bceves he has sold in
Chicago, this season, ten thousand bushels Of
corn, and has still on hand mt his farm, twenty
thousand bushels. He has also harvested eirht
hundred bushels of oats this season. The drove
fed on his corn crop he sold here. We gave ut
the outset the sum paid to him by single
Chicago beef packing house, but that IL oGly n
part of the story.
Mr.. Strawns drove this season was twenty
i've hundred mead, all marketed this fall, giving
on average price Of S3l, or seventy four thou
sand dollars. He has still on His farm two
hundred head, which win be held over, and by
next season will be increased, by purchases &C.,
to from twenty five hundred to three thousand
head, to be fed for next fills slaughter. What
an increase is this on the modest drove Of thir-
ty head, mark I'd by Messrs Sfrawu and Coe in
1915, and how have those princcly transactions
and possessions grown the three dollars sur
plus over that three hundred acre farm in 1871.
These latter date 6gnros remind us Of no hing
more strikingly than whit we read Of the latter
estate Of the patriarch Of Uz.
Now. what Mr.. Strawn has achieved should
be an incitcm Mt to hundreds Of undcvclopcd
graziers Tmong our Western farmers, many Of
whom will never advance beyond their present
stage for The very lack Of putting forth tho cI-
ertion. A word ss to Mr.. Strawn's plan Of
feeding. lie pursucs the course Of commencing
to feed his corn as soon as it hardcns, or in ScP-
tember, 6rst to cattle, aut f'.cn follows up with
hogs. The corn is cut in thc stalk with u
ear on. He advises the rwncrs Of oar vas

and thus market it, aad his own success is di.
