thrown out westward it would lap
far out into the Pacific ocean and
eastward it would deliver its cattle
nearly at the doors of the beef trust
in Omaha. 1t is a great big state
and getting bigger mighty fast.
One of its main recommendations
is that it still belongs exclusively
to itself, the trusts and corporations
not baving acquired all of its
natural resources, as so many states
have reason to complain of, The
people are free and independent,
they have good, clean government
and one OF the best educational sys-
TENS there is anywhere. There are
no large cities. but the population
is we'll distributed among the pop
ulous farmers, rich mines, green
pastures, timber camps, orchards
and vineyards. 1t is penetrated by
great nayigable rivers that give its
commerce easy access to the sea.
The railways are doing more new
construction work in Idaho at this
time than in any other state, yet
most of its best country is still only
reached by stage coach. In this
connection it is recalled that the
garden of Eden has never been
located with absolute certainty. 1t
is believed by many that it was
located somewhere on the Euphra-
ties or the Tigris river, above the
present Persian gulf. There art
others who locate it much further
east, in India's vale of Cashmere
and even in China. Possibly there
are those who would come ever
further east and locate it in Idaho
There are at least few arguments
to present in favor of its location
in this land of fruits, flowers, bloom
laughing waters, encircling noun
tains and majestic woods. A leas

FEEDING BEEF CATTLE.
Important Bulletin From the Depart
ment of Agriculture.

The May Bulletin of the State De
partment of Agriculture is on, 1.-The
Feeding of Beef Cattle edited by DR.,
TAFT Butler. State Veterinarian. The
Bulletins discusses some of the prob
lens involved in the feeding of beet
cattle in North Carolina.
The Introduction to the Bulletin
says:
"There are at least two excellent
reasons for the feeding of beef cattle
on many North Carolina farms. First.
there is wasted. or not fully utilized,
large quantities of rough forage. not
ably corn slower; and there are also
large quantities of cotton seed and
cotton-sced meal now being used di-
rectIy as fertilizers for which much
better values would be obtained by
first feeding them and thereby OBJ
tanning their feeding values. and also
d large part of their original fertilizer
values.
1.-THE second reason is found in the
extreme lack of humue. or d~ecaying
organic matter. in our soils. No soils
need stable manure more thar ours
and few receive less of it.
"In brief, the chief present objects
of beef cattle feeding on North Caro-
lima farms are to furnish a market
for the products of the farm now
largely wasted and at the same time
retain the fertilizer value of these pro-
ducts for maintaining and building up
soil fertility. The lack of s~atisfaC Glory
pastures is almost universally given
as the reason for the absence of live
stock on our farms. but this cannot
be given as a reason for the failure
to feed to beef cattle during the win
ter such farm products as corn stover.
COttO~ seed and cotton seed meal.
of which We have large quantities not
now fully utilized.
"The winter feeding Of beef cattle
is a subject concerning which more
farmers are now desiring information
than at any other time. In fact, prob
ably more beef cattle were fed in North
Carolina during the past winter than
at any other time during recent years.
In the past the feeding of beef cattle
has no been uniformly or even usually
successful. In q large percentage of
cases where the feeds were purchased
actual loss has resulted. while in 9th
erS more none could have been OBJ
tanned by selling the feeding stuffs on
the nearest market. But, with a prop
er appreciation of the necessity of
feeding the products of the farm in
order to maintain its fertility the feed
ing of cattle has become a very i'm
portant question concerning which
many farmers in the State desire in
fOFmatiOn."
