A FEMALE COWBOY.
Mrs. Gen. Meredith's Magnificent Herd
of Short Horns In Indiana.
TCI,ioooo Mail

lChicago Mail.
Mrs. Gen. II. @. Meredith Is q handsome
woman who is probably somewhere In tine
40s, She sets off her handsome figure with
stylish dresses and has the best apartments
that the Grand Pacific affords. But this
woman delegate owns at Cambridge City,
Ind, the finest herd Of short horn cattle
there Is In the state, and breeds and sells
and pushes her business alongside OF the
best known cattle fanciers In the country.
She can discuss constitutional breeding and
high priced beef with any man here. She
knows Just how an animals frame should
be bred and Just how fiat and how round
its bones should be; how It's ribs should be
sprung how the upper loin should slope
and how the lower. She can tell from its
throatlatch whether the animal has got
pedigree worth having, and from the shape
Of it's frame around the heart whether 1t is
hardy or sickly. There isn't any man
among all the famous cattle owners and
breeders here who know these things any
better than she. or has more pedigrees in
his head, or who can tell quicker whether
an animal is in the 'record" or not, or
whether 1t could get In the 'record ~
Gen. Meredith, VIII N he was alive, was
one OF the pioneerfne cattle breeders in the
country. He became rich as the craze for
high-priced, imported short-horns grew,
until In the '60s and the early '70's he was
worth probably $500,000 He had the
Airdries, and paid out $4,000 as readily
for bull that happened to be after his own
heart as more conservative men paid out
money for good lands with houses on them.
But the general went broke when the craze
subslded. Hisson failed after him, but the
widow, with all her style and grace, had
better head for business than either the
husband or son. She took the herds that
were left, and managed them, and, where
both men had failed, she succeeded. Her sale
few years ago was the most successful enc
in the country, with one single exception.
Her sleek cattle averaged price that had
Heretofore been unheard Of. She breeds
the "Wild Eyes," and they are known
wherever fine cattle are, and her herd Of
forty head earn her a handsome income
every year. The lady read paper year
ago at tho national convention, giving her
experience as a cattle breeder. 1t was
printed everywhere, and probably was read
by more men and women than all the other
papers put together.
Gen. Meredith used to own $40, 900 bulls
and ran TO 5000 calves. His handsome
widow has gotten over that folly. She
breeds cattle for money, not for glory,

These great lines Of commerce traverse
broad stretches Of our own country, Will
tap almost every important center Of trade
on our northern border, sand arc now
stretching their arms across the state Of
Maine TO the eeaboard, south to st. Paul,
and the vast interests that center in these
grand transcontinental lines that are knit
together by them, invite to other fields OF
conquests this side Of the great lakes, until
Portland, Greg, st. Paul, Chicago Buffalo,
New York, and San Francisco pay tribute
to these interests and share in their wonder
ful growth and development; and IL may
astonish some present to know that to day
the dominion government has subsidized,
and is now subsidizing, q railroad In con-
nection with this vast system across the
state OF Maine to shorten the route to the
cities OF the eastern seaboard.
We are one people-in laws, religion,
sympathy, and pursuits, and descended
from common origin, and our trade and
intercourse are constantly growing In i'm
portance.
Look for moment to the unlimited re-
sources Of that country, with her great
lakes and rivers and forests; with her
natural storehouses OF gold and silver, OF
coal, iron, copper, and lead Her pastoral
and agricultural resources are unlimited,
and 800 miles northwest OF 81. Paul we
find actually the great wheat fields Of this
continent, and which when fully developed
Will not only equal, but far surpass the
great Odessa region Of Russia, and 10000
square miles Of coal underlie this same ter
ritory.
These are some Of the past and present
conditions Of our relations to this great
country. The great question is what shall
be their futureP Shall we extend the same
courtesy TO her that we are extending to
