Tho establishment OF vast alfalfa

an evidence o! the fact that the range
industry in this state is practically q
thing OF the past. 1. has been on the
decline for the past ten years. and only
remnant Of its former SELF now exists
The farmer with his Irrigating bitches
and alfalfa fields has absorbed the ranges
to such IN extent that only sufficient Is
left for summer grazing. The day when
great herds roamed in one valley IN the
summer, and in another in tho winter,
when cattle could keep IN good condition
during the entire year on native grass, is
gone forever. The cattle baron, who
was once so important figure in the
West, has seen his glory depart. He
may Iecome IN alfalfa king in the future
but his uncounted herds roaming over
whole states and territories no longer
exist
From the decadence Of tho range 10

industry the state will suffer no loss. 1t
will in fact be largely benefited By the
change. Instead OF an animal ringing
