There are certain phases OF the cat
tie feeding business that demand the
serious attention OF farmers who make
a practice OF feeding a bunch OF steers
each year for the market, says NeD-
raska Farmer. We have only recently
referred TO the matter. but owing to
state OF affairs which may presently DC
found bordering upon an emergency u
will not be amiss briefly 20 70 over the
situation at this time, The prospect Is
for an immense yield OF corn through
out the west. Some Of las, years crop
Is now going out by reason OF an en-
Urgency rate on western corn freighls
Within sixty days from now will be
witnessed more than the usual stir
among feeders for obtaining cattle for
the winter feeding season. But II is a
known fact that even with feed scarce
men are apt to Oyerreact themselves
In the matter OF price for such steers.
What may not fairly be expected then
with an abundance OF feed, and no
outlet for It except the feed lot,
and an appearance Of shortage In
numbers Of cattlel We have already
sounded a note OF warning against pay
ing too much for cattle. II they can be
bought at proper figure at the right
ar usual time we would advise that the
farmer wait. or that he buy younger
cattle and rough them through the
winter and feed them out on grass Ia
the spring, Spring feeding Is bound 10
grow In popularity In the course OF
time. as being the most economical
Then n the time OF buying must be
postponed the buyer Is likely TO meet
with less Of competition at a later date.
The feeding problem Is one OF chang
ing aspects. and Il must be solved by
each farmer for himself and In accord
with his surroundings at the beginning
OF each particular feeding season.
There Is room for some good thinking
right now upon the above subject.

TO a considerable extent Some Of the
officers OF the express companies give
reasons why the companies formerly
