W. F. Somerville of Fort Worth,
speaking about the communication in
yesterdays GAZETTE from Spinks & Co.,
live stock brokers of Liverpool, regard
ing the direct shipment of beeveS from
Fort Worth to Liverpool, said that when
in England last summer. he had looked
over the ground there with a view to the
establishment of such trade, and that
while there were serious obstacles i'll the
way of its immediate operation, he
had come to the conclusion that it
was entirely feasible, and would
prove of immense value to those
who would go into such q business, as
well as to the cattlemen from whom the
supplies for the trade would be drawn.
When he came back to Fort Worth i'll
October, he LAID his plan before several
capitalists and StOckmen of this vicinity,
Colonel R. E. Maddox, NJ. j . Hurley
and others, who Signified their willing
ness to embark i'll the business, and it
was arranged to make trial shipment at
once, but an unexpected decline i'll the
Liverpool market put stop to the bust
ness for time. Mr.. Somerville thinks
an experimental shipment should be made
i'll order to ascertain the possibilities of
the scheme. He does not think that the
conditions of the cattle business i'll Texas
are just right at the present time, but
with the assured location of stock yards
at Fort Worth, and with the immense
strides being taken in the cattle feeding
industry in all parts of the states there is
no reason why the cattle raisers should
not pocket the commissions heretofore
paid to middle men in Chicago, St. Louis
and New York.

Northwestern Live Stock Journal: A
Texas contemporary makes the estimate
that in Texas, Indian Territory, New
Mexico, Colorado, Arizona and Kansas
there are fully 900 900 less cattle than
III 1885, and we believe the estimate well
and safely within bounds. Assuming
the truth of the premise, the subject is
one prolific of suggestive thought. The
countries named are i'll good part what is
known as the breeding grounds, and only
Il small percentage of the cattle i'll those
regions at any given time are steers.
This would be the case especially
with Texas in the year named,
when for some years all her ranges and
farms had been hunted out as with a fine
tOothed comb for young steers for the
northwest drive; and the same was true
to greater or less extent of the other re-
giOnS named, save, perhaps, Kansas and
Colorado. And where ranges have been
so well fixed for enormous increase, but
have instead gone backward, there are
lessons TO be learned and valuable hints
for the future to be cleaned. The reduc-
ton has been i'll fine face of an enormous
natural increase, or what must have
been such under normal conditions,
and has been in great part of she

market are no longer on the range to af-
feet the returns, and their going has
given false impression of overproduction.
Men think they make allowances in the
premises; but when the turn of the tide
comes even the coolest calculator will find
himself ut fault. In the case of the
evenly balanced scales, one pound taken
from the one side and placed on the other
makes a difference of two pounds be-
tween them. The effect of the reduction
will be immense once the true state of at
fairs become apparent.
