CATTLE RAISING IN THE SOUTH.

A few days ago the Chicago Inter-
Ocean published a news item to the
effect that the leading beef packers
Of the west had perfected arrange
ments TO secure control Of several
hundred thousand acres Of land in.
Southern Alabama and Northern
Florida, where they propose to go
into the cultivation of the cassava
on an extensive scale as feed for cat
tie and hogs. 1t is said that if the
contemplated plans are carried out
the South will in a few years become
the center OF the cattle raising indus
try. The casSava root is said to be
a splendid stock feed, while the yield
is very large, and in this section
where the experiment is to be made
large crops Of peas, grasses, corn and
other forage can be grown. In addi-
ton there is more or less good pastur-
age all the year round, while there
are no billiards, spells of excessive
heat and drouths from which cattle
suffer and die on the ranges Of the
northwest.
With the capital the beef packers
can invest in this enterprise without
feeling it. and the system they estab-
fish, and the necessity, for making
provision for the future supplies OF
animals for slaughter, we have no
doubt Of the complete success of this
venture, and this means much for
the South, for it will demonstrate the
practicability Of raising cattle in the
South on a large scale and profitable,
and will encourage others to engage
in it.
We have frequently asserted that
the South would some day be the CEN
ter Of the cattle and sheep raising
industry Of the United States, and
there is now a very fair prospect that
the assertion will be verified, because
the movement Of the beef packers is a
long stride in that direction. 1t
shows that capital is beginning to I'M
derstand the advantages and resour-
ces Of the South and to have conf
dence in its future. There are mil
lions Of acres of land in this section
Of the country suitable for the raising
Of all kinds Of feed for cattle and
hogs. and on which the stock will
never suffer from extreme heat or
cold or the lack of water, and it is
only a question Of time when capital
lists will secure these lands and g a
in the highly profitable business Of
cattle raising. States.

His Sight Threatened.

while picnicing last month my
~11-year-old boy was poisoned by some
weed or plant" says W. II. Dibble,
of Sioux City, Ia. He rubbed the
poison off his hands into his eyes and
for awhile we were afraid he would
lose his sight. Finally a neighbor re-
commended DeWitt'S Witch Hazel

him and in a few days he was as well

Picayune: IL is less than twenty
years since we had not a single steel
vessel in the navy and no means of

of the navy yards is being put in
readiness to commence work on a TO-
900 ton ship. What greater progress
than this could be hoped for?

Editor Henry has had some Of his
youthful experiences brought back into
mind and thus remarks:
AN Iowa millionaire announces
that he will give away his wealth and
retire to a woodshed for the balance
Of his life. Well, we have spent some
very lively times in the woodshed but
that was in our early days, and we
seriously doubt that this Iowa chap,
who is now II, will be able to stand

The county editor may not live to
count his dollars by the billions, but
he is certainly the man of his entire
community, if he has the sense and
the industry, who can be the most
useful, most independent and most
respected. His traducers may come
and go, but if he knows his business
he'll remain there and get there all
the same.-Okolona Messenger.

1t is said that the work Of irrigation
in the West will begin in Wyoming,
which not SO many years ago was part
of the Great American desert. 1t is
now established beyond a doubt that
the soil is intrinsically rich and fertile.
1t lacks only water to blossom like the
rose. The possibilities Of the trans
Mississippi region are for.this reason
immense. 1t is expected that irrigation
will double the area for crops west of
the Missouri.

The Memphis Scimitar says that
the Boer leaders who fought the Brit
ish with Mauser rifles are setting Ian
example Of dignifed and patriotic sub
mission to fate that does them as
much credit as their soldiership did.
The only implacables are the Boer
leaders who fought the British with
their tongues while living in clover at
European capitals. Twas we thus.

One of the "Finest."

Sheriff Jack Conley of Anaconda,
Deer Lodge county, was in Kalispell
yesterday looking up the. record of
some offender against the laws of the
state. Jack is one of the best known
figures in Montana's distinguished
band of peace officers, and is terror
to offenders against the peace and
dignity of the state. When asked if
he was on the lookout for Tracy, the
big sheriff of Deer Lodge county
smiled and stroked his mustache, but
1t will be a bad day for Tracy should
the pride of Montana sheriffs start
upon his trail, for Jack Conley is a
sure winner, with his 20 odd years
experience with the most dangerous
class of criminals, from horse thieves
and cattle rustlers and train robbers
on the plains of eastern Montana tc
the not less dangerous murderers and
cranks in the smelter city Mr.. Con
ley had a pistol duel with a crank in
Anaconda some weeks ago, and was
forced to kill the frantic man, who
was a walking arsenal. Jack shot
10 cripple him until the hunted man
had, as he thought, killed his under
sheriff, then he put a bullet home
and the war was over.

Agricultural Exports and Imports.

Agricultural Exports and Imports.
During 1901 for the first time in sew
eral years our exports of cotton ex-
ceeded in value our exports of bread
stuffs. After cotton and breadstuffs,
which held the first and second places
in our agricultural export trade, meat
products formed the largest item. Ad-
ditional exports of leading Importance,
named in the order of their value, were
live animal, tobacco, vegetable oils, oil
cake and oil cake meal, fruits and nuts,
dairy products and seeds. The ten
items mentioned comprised in value
nearly 81 per cent of our total ship
ments of farm produce for 1901.
The leading items among our agricul-
tural imports for 1901, named in the
order of their Importance, were sugar,
coffee, hides and skins, silk, vegetable
fibers, fruits and nuts, tobacco, wool,
tea, wines, cocoa, vegetable oils, dis
titled spirits. seeds, vegetables and
spices. The combined value of these
sixteen items amounted to about $685.
100000. or more than 90 per cent of the
valuation placed upon our total import
trade in products of agriculture.
