a constant source of! ,wondprment

2 H y aa4 p 60. =
a constant source Of wonderment is
the vast drain Of cattle from Minnesota
and Iowa to Dakota and Montana and
that the supply seems practically mex
llaustible. A low estimate would be
80, 600 ones and tWo's that have been
shipped to this country from the above
mentioned states this season. This
movement Of stock means far more to
our future cattle trade than an outsider
would suppose. A grade animal is
worth $40 to $40 more as a four-year-old
than is native OF Texan stock. Almost
every one Of the Minnesota and Iowa
cattle are graded. To be sure some o'
them are low grade, but blood will tel
and tell strongly when the cattle are
sold. Our cattlemen- have also awaket
to tho advantage of using full-bIoot
bulls and they are being universally
used in the Bad Lands. This will in.
crease the value Of the herds very mate.
rally and raise the standard of our cat.
tie even above its present high plane.

Tin mind Of tho ctocIynon.

Tie mind Of the stock1nan is happy.
To say that cattle are looking well does
not express it. It is we'll known that
cattle are by no means at their best dur
ing this season but one would think
from their looks that they are all stall
fed cattle. The per cent. of calves is
smaller than was expected, it not reach
ing much oyer75 pei. cent. in the most
favorable cases. This is made up for in
the splendid condition Of the cattle and
the small per cent. of loss. The latter
in no case has reached per cont. and
oftener has gone way below that
The Bad Lands cow boy. [volume] (Little Missouri, Dakota [i.e. N.D.]) 1884-1886, 1884-06-12

An article in the Pioneer Press again
calls to mind a subject of which we
have before written and which can only
be remediad by united action among
the different cattle associations. 1t is in
reference to persons selling diseased
stock to avoid a total loss or keeping it
until it dies, although it may communi-
cate the disease to fifty others before
death. We again wish to call attention
to the system practiced in Germany, by
which every diseased animal is taken
before an inspector and killed if pro
nounced ineurable. The owner in this
case receives about two-thirds the value
of the animal, while a severe fine is Wis
tied upon him in case he conceals tile
fact of the disease. This plan has
worked very satisfactorily and has been
found to be the only way by which dis
ease can be eradicated. In conjunction
with other stock organizations, this
Should be one Of the first matters toward
which to turn our attention. Its mani
fest feasibility should commend itself es-
pecially to stock-raising states and terri
tories and q combined effort Of the seye-
raj associations could get laws passed
which would prevent the spread Of any
disease. The expenses would be light,
almost nothing in comparison to the
loss should an epidemic start among
our cattle: Each district could have an
inspector, working in conjunction with
an association. who could pronounce on
every case eIof sickness. We hope this
matter will be agitated BY cattle papers
until definite action is taken upon it by
the associations and through them, by
the different legislatures.
