A News reporter attended the
Amarillo Street Fair and Carni

saw many of the Canyonites
among the large crowd. In fact
Canyon City seemed to furnish
more than her pro rata of the
general average attendance.
Everybody seemed to enjoy
themselves and the old Confed-
crate soldiers who attended are
loud in their praise of Amarillo
as a host. There were more
visitors at the Carnival Monday
than at any other time during
the five days, and as "Bill" Ken
yon remarked to the reporter
after he had sought an elevation

The STOCK OUTLOOK.

chased about 75 head Of cattle
from L. n. Lochrldge of Happy,
most of the stuff being year
'lings. Mr.. Campbell says he
will experiment with his year.
lings again this winter in the
manner OF preparing them for
an early spring market, but will
commence feeding at once. He
will use the native feed crops
and will begin feeding forage
crops before they have reached
the perfection of maturity. He
will thus bring his cattle into
the winter months in prime con
di,ion and by crowding the stuff
will have it ready for the early
spring market. Mr.. Campbell
believes this will enable the
producer i'll the Panhandle to
realize better price for his
product and even though the
price is not satisfactory at the
desired time of marketing it will
be nothing lost, especially with
such an enormous feed crop in
prospect. The News believes
the plan is good one and
worthy OF emulation by others.
Such a procedure on the part of
Panhandle stock farmers will
enable them to place in compe-
tition finished product that
will compare favorab bly, with the
class of stuff shipped by north
ern feeders. All the panhandle
needs to develop it is class of
stock farmers who will get out
OF the old rut and try methods
that are not tainted with the
smell of more than a decade 5
antiquity, at least. The ante
diluvian course of grazing cat
tie on agricultural lands will
eventually prove to thinking
people the utter impossibility of
making money under its regime.
With the improved methods
for caring and handling stock
in winter and the most excellent
condition Of the range country
the general opinion seems to be
that better things will come
with the new year, and that the
men who can weather through
the prevailing adverse condi-
tons will win out in the end.
The beginning of the fall
months finds the range condi |
tions in the panhandle much !
better than at this time last
year.
The quite general rain that
visited this section last Thurs
day night and the local showers
that are now Undertaking. are
in ample time to provide all the
grass necessary for the winter.
With plenty of moisture now
and no frost until the first week
in November, the range country
will present the appearance OF
spring and there will be plenty
of grazing for the cattle. While
the cattle are going into the
winter in good shape, they have
not taken on as much fat this
summer as they have done dur
ing more favorable periods;
they are nevertheless thrifty
and will continue to improve
from now on and liberal sup
ply of forage crops for winters
use there need not be any APP
prehension felt on this score.
Careful inquiry among the
cattlemen and from the in
formation given by animal and
hide Inspector Foster, reveals
the fact that while the country
tributary to Canyon City ship
ping point has less cattle to
market than usual this fall, yet
that does not alter the fact that
a considera bic per cent will now
begin to move regardless of
prices or conditions. These
cattle haye now been held back
for Soma time in he hODa that
