''In 1891 there were in the srae of Michigan 2,263 ,249 sheep valued at $7,34S,316. This present year she has but 1,341 ,971 head, valued at $3,536,- 899 In 1891 Colorado had 1,S19, ,569 head of sheep, valued alt $3,778, ,281, but notwithstanding the great num- Der shipped TO your feed ng pens, you now have but 1,411, 1882 head, valued at S2,411, 1882. New Mexico had 3,123.- 663 head of sheep in 1891, valued ajs $5, ,26S,057. Now she has but 2,683,- 269 head, valued at S3,647, ,753. This decrease in numbers will stand good, approximately, in every state in the Union, and at the same time our pop ulaticn is increasing at the rate of 10 per cent, or more, and the; demand for mutton 15 per cent.
 s'In Australia and New Zealand, the two greatest sheep raising coun- tries of the world, drouth has existed for so long and to such an extent that it has ruined this industry. The lat est reports on change in London were that half the sheep in those countries were already dead, and they were killing and skinntng the rest as fast as possible to save tine palts. This misfortune is the reason why wool has advanced so sharply in the Unit ed States. It is also vsry good req son for going into sheep.
 After such a disaster Aus .halia and New Zealand will be slow about re- storing their lost f1ocks to such vast magnitude as they had reached. In deed, experience teaches us that for a period of years, at least, the sheep growing industries will lie dormant in those counh ies. The demand of the worlds market for wool will grow as it ought to, and every indi- cation points to a good market fer wool. The time IS ripe for our great western and northwestern states to introduce the sheep industry on a large scale, but let it be doue by de- grees and with wisdom. These be- ing the facts, I cannot for the life of me see where over production will come in for quite a number of years to come, at least.
 Here in Colorado you have a mag nificent opportunity to build up great industries in both the breeding and feeding lines. You produce the nec- essary forage, have the stock, the eli mate and location all in your favor, and it seems to me the coming S. bck convention which you hold here next month will be the occasion to estab lish this city as the central point from which this and all ol-heF' stock transa ac-:ohs should radiahe.
 ''The average citizen of the United States realizes the extent of their stock feeding industries. The mining interests of Colorado, which give to the world $2O,OOO,OOO in gold annually, does not suTpass it. Frcm reliable sources I learn that Colorado is today feeding 420,0O0 head of sheep and lambs and about 20,OO0 head of cattle, which should be increased to 100000. Nebraska is feeding 320,000 head of sheep and about 400 900 head of cat tie, and Kansas about the same.
 'The possibility for prosperity in the west is beyond the compr5 heTsipn of the average man unless he stops and looks up the figures

The druggist, therefore, has much to do with the success or failure of the doctors treatment.

 On Saturday the profits in arfhlfa farming in this section were further illustrated by a deal between Rev. D. Kloss and Thomas Hagan, wherein the latter became the purchaser of 200 toms of alfalfa hay from the former. This hay is the product of two cut tings from forty-ac-e tract, and the price paid was $4 per ton or $500 for the lot. To this amount should be added $70 received this season for pas 4ure from the same tract, which makes the average per acre $21.75.

POINTS ON SHEEP RAISING.
W. C. Brewer Shows Conclusively
 That the Business Will Pay.

The shsap men throughout the west are beginning to take an active inner est in the National St1ock Growers coawsri.icn to be held in Denver next January Their Interests are v5ry large and great deal regarding the futlre of the sheep businasss wi depend upon what is done by the del's- gates to the coming convention. There are a g.eajt many features of the sheep industry that will be discussed dur ing the convention and it is expected that the eonveL,.Lcil will be able to influence legislation upon some' new condLt tons not covered at the present time by law.
 The subject of a division of the raging lands between the cattle men and the sheep men will be handled ably by persons thoroughly conwers amt with both sides of the question. It is one of the purposes of the con- venfion to bring the representative men of bo,h of these industries to- gesher and, if possible, make some arrangements by which trouble will be avoided in the future.
 T he sheep industry has thrived even more than the cattle industry during the past year in Colorado and the ad Joining states, and in many of these states it is now the predominant in dlistry. Wool has been bringing good prices and the price of mutton has been high enough to insure a good profit on an investment in sheep. In Wyoming it is sad that there are myriads of sheep and in this state the number of sheep has been in creased largely during the past year. The arnusd report cf the Denver Union Stock Yards shows that 305, 662 sheep were handled this year at the yards and the report of last year was that 1OS,639 were handled, an in erase of 5,032.
 w. c. BrOwec, ore of the most thoroughly posted men in the sheep business in Minnesota, and who is ae present investigating this Industry in Calotado, New Mexico, Wyoming and \. Utah, in its connections with the feed ing of alfalfa and bset sugar. pulp. does not agree with those editorial wri6sIs in some live stock journals who are advising their readers to steer clear of sheep as an investment at the present time, for the reason, as gney assert, that prices are too high, that the business is being boomed and overdone by enthusiasts and that there will be a tumble in prices after next year, as the country is full of lambs for which there will be a decrease in the demand after 1898.
 MT. Brewer in speaking of sheep, said:
 Such talk as this shows conclu- sively that the one guilty of making it does not understand what he is talking about The consumption of mutton in the United States is in- creasing at the rate of about 15 psr cent per year. It now takes from 12 2,000, ,000 to 14,000,000 sheep and lambs year to supply the American demand. With the foreign demand incree sing, it will be seen that a con- stantly growing number of sheep and lambs must be provided, and as we sers not now importing amy sheep, this
 reased demand must be met by our
 he breeders.
