head is supplied the stream which fills the
vast reservoir Of those northwestern plains
and valleys MinglinG with the stream is
an inflow of pure bred bulls from Ken
lucky, Illinois and elsewhere i'll the east,
and this nterrlinclng of blood results in
IN improved race of heevcs, which, rs has
b"on stated, completes fairly with some Of
the hest graded stock Of the cast.
But Texas is the grand source from
whence comes the raw material, and the
current is formed by what is known as the
"annual drive" Once a gear this Great
movement occurs and the drive of Texas
cattle, its promises and probabilities, form
I he burden Of the talk of cattle men
throughout the country, from the Rocky
Mountains to the Atlantic. This drive con-
Sisfs Of the surplus from the great herds,
which Craze upon III" Texas prairies and
fields; it furnishes the means by which
large part Of the Texan people suISist, and
il represents the profits Of The Graziars and
wages OF the 9 COW boys" WHO handle the
droveS. X constant stream of cattle pours
out from the State and takes the Northern
trail 10 reach the market. From 90, 600 to
100000 head OF cows, steers and young
stock forms the substance Of the stream.
If these cattle We're StTrn. along a trail,
eight or ten feet apart, they would extend
for one thousand miles: and although the
drov"S are necessarily driven loosely and
in very open order that they may find suf-
Gent paStuta%", vet willie on the drive,

may lie taken a. an indication of the YER
durc and heritage OF these vast natural pas
lures that the cattle actually improve in
flesh and gain in weight while on the drive.
Spreading out as the rays of a huge fan,
the trails lead east north and west, and
