CATTLE.

The great interest of the farmers Of
this section is that of grazing cattle.
Their lands are finely adapted to grass
for grazing in summer, and to the pro-
duction Of hay, corn, and other forage
for feeding in winter. The grazer
proper is the owner of large bounda-
ries of fine grass-lands, on which he
grazes cattle in selected lots. Among
the largest graziers hereabouts is Mr..
William A. Stuart, Of Russell, part
owner Of the salt-works. lie
has several stock-farms in Russell
county, and grazes each season for
market about 1000 head of fat cattle
that weigh on an average about 1,4O0
pounds. This does not include calves
and mich cows. There are other stock
raisers, but the number they Craze is
small as compared to that of Mr..
Stuart. His grazing lands in this county
are said to be valued at 100000. In
Tazewell county, which is one of the
wealthiest counties in Southwest Viz
ginia, large numbers of cattle are
shipped. The principal people engaged
in this business are Mr.. Robert Lawson
and Mr.. William Cooper. They own an
extensive tract Of land and Craze from
800 TO 500 head season. Joseph W.
Meek, who is the owner of a large
farm at Burks Garden, grazes about
200 head. There are several other
large stock-raisers-Mr. George Goss,
Mr.. Ned Piery, Moss Brothers, and
others that average from 100 to $50
head of cattle. In the lower end of
the county Robert Barnes is a large
stock-raiSer, and there are besides
number Of small ones that Craze from
10 to Is.
In Washington county Mr.. James
NJ. Byers, near Glade Springs, grazes
about 200, and George w. Palmer.
Esq, who is one of the principal owners
of the salt-works, several hundred
head, but he gives most of his atten.
ton to blooded stock. Upon his stock
farm are to be seen largo herds Of short
horns, Jerseys, and Holsteins. At
Seven-Mile Forge Messrs. John aud
Charles Preston, and number of
others in other sections Of the county.
average from twenty to forty head. In
Wythe county, which is one Of the
richest in the Southwest, there are a
number of large csttle-raisers and
some OF the largest and finest stock.
farms in this section. One of the
largest stock-rsisers is Mr.. James II.
McGovich, who is the owner Of that vaIu-
able farm known as Fort Chiswold, which
contains about 1000 acres Of land. 1t
is divided into conyenient-sized fields
and nearly its entire acreage is in grass.
The number Of cattle grazed by him
for market are several hundred. At |
