 The San Antonio Stoct..aa says: The New Mexico C..tfe and Horse Growers Association started the movement ,--organize an Internation- al RarSe Association; the Colorado oattlemen heartily seconded the mo. tion, and it Is now reasonably certain that the 27th of January, 1886. will see large gathering of range cattle men assembled at Denver. There are ample reasons for such an orgauiza- tion. There i, little in common be. tween cattle raising on the plains and on an eastern farm. The object of the association IS to combine the eff. forts of the range cattlemen in solving these problems that especially pertain 10 their industry and about which the eastern farmers and breeders know very lIttle. The association will be an auxiliary to the National association. Denver IS the center of the range country and affords the best place for the meeting, and we feel sure that the delegates will there receive the warmest hospitality,
