Alfalfa and the Dressed Beef Trade

1t is we'll known that until recently
our stoclmen have been simply growing
cattle for Eastern States to make beef of,
instead of making the beef here in Colo
RADIO, even for home consumption. Hap
PLY, this wasteful process is changing.
The remarkable productiyencss of alfalfa
and its great fnttening properties arc
now thoroughly understood, and instead
of bringing dressed beef into Colorado
from the East, we shall soon he shipping
dressed beef to the East, or if not that,
at least our cattle will be thoroughly fit.
ted for beef. Probably 90, 900 head were
fed alfalfa during the past winter in this
State, and though all feeders were not
equally successful. yet from 10, 600 to
1900 were turned into prime beef on
alfalfa alone, against not more than 2,
900 so fed in tho preceding winter.
1t has been demonstrated by actual
test that q steer weighing 1,100 pounds,
stalled, fed, and cared for as cattle are
fattened in the East, gained in eighty
days 24O pounds in weight on
thirty pounds of alfalfa alone per day,
being an average daily growth of three
pounds, and when killed here last winter
was found to be the finest beef seen in
Denver for years. Another case is re-
ported where farmer took lot of thin
steers in the fall, which cost him an
average sum of $25 per head, fed them
exclusively on alfalfa during the winter,
and sold them at an average price Of $50
per head. and when slaughtered they
were equal to the best corn fed beef.
The possibilities of alfalfa raising and
its uses in our State arc incalculable. 1t
has been proved to be as good feed for
sheep and swine as for cattle. Some of
the finest and juciest mutton ever sold in
our market was fattened on alfalfa in six
weeks time 1t can be grown in any
part of the State and three or four crops
gathered per year. That it is thoroughly
appreciated by our farmers is shown by
the fact that fourteen carloads of the
seed were brought to Denver alone last
year, and twenty to twenty-five carloads
could be sold here this year if they could
be obtained. .-Dencer (C0'.) Tribune.
