AN EXPERIMENT
BY Catue-DenIers in Southwest Vfr-
ginia.

DUBLIN. VA, April 6-(Special)-A
carload, consisting of twenty fine-stock
cattle. reached here from Chicago this
morning. This shipment is an expert
ment on the part Of several of our most
prominent cattlemen, who bought the
cattle jointly on the Chicago market, and
have had them brought here to Craze
and sell for export next fall. IL has
been the custom OF our dealers here
TO buy 2-year-old cattle In the fall i'm
mediately after putting their fat cattle
on the market and feed them for about
twelve months before disposing of them.
This plan necessitates a great deal of
labor and expense, and a man desiring
to secure and hold such cattle must ride
sometimes over a large territory select
ing them, and after that must gather
them I'D. bring them home, and winter
them, feeding hay, fodder and corn.
This system entails a great deal OF labor
during the winter months. and even az
ter the spring opens the cattle must be
looked after every day. Our cattlemen
have recognized for long time that 1t
costs them too much money TO keep
steer twelve months and then put him
on the market, or, I'm other words, stock
cattle cost too much to be bought in
the fall and kept all winter before they
can be turned on grass to shift for
themselves.
These gentlemen. after correspondence
with commission merchants in Chicago,
concluded that they would buy one car
load Of good cattle. bring them here,
treat them as they do their own cattle,
and see which plan will pay them the
better If this experiment should prove a
paying one. it will revolutionize the cattle
business of Southwest virginia.
