Last winter, in riding over the country,I
y noticed quite a number Of dead cattle but
/ never adead horse. Horses do not scatter
and drift as much as cattle, and it is
therefore much less trouble to gather and
ranch them. In winter, when cattle are
drifting south hundreds Of miles, unless,
held in the face Of the northers, a we'll:
j located herd of horses will not ordinarily
leave their accustomed range as much as
4 five miles. Horses are not so branclly as
II cattle; not so troublesome to surrounding
farms, OF SO obnoxious to farmers. Large
numbers Of cattle can not be satisfactor-
i lily kept in a vicinity interspersed wish
small farms. It would be folly in any any,
one to think now Of raising cattle on a
!. large scale in this section unless held in
4 pastures. Then, as ranges become
7. scarcer, and numbers must be diminished,
Il it is easier to keep the same amount Of
capital invested in the business BY i'm
proving the breed of horses than cattle.
