Graham C.. Richards, q wcIl.known

and rs no moro was said OF tho subjoc5

o. Dir. CuthUert Powell. Tho result
of his figures is summed up in tho

conc!ugion--i. G., that America hns
seen her cheapest beef, that ranchn.cn
and breeders have gene through thci.
darkest days, aud that tho tendency
Of values from. this time forward
must be upward. An inverse ratio in
cattle production and population, aud
increased cost OF raising and maturing
cattle on crowded ranges and

and that is to better prices. And 1
feel safe in hazarding tho prediction
that ut tho end Of tho rext decade
