his imagination that has added many mil
lions to our national wealth. Your Grad
grinds or men of facts never make for
tunes. They do not invent new methods
nor introduce new things. 1t takes imagi-
nation to make a creator, an inventor, or
an improver. 1t was Secretary Wilson's
imagination which saw the possibilities Of
our deserts. and which brought macaroni
wheat from northern Africa to grow upon
them. AS a result that land, which was as
bare as your hand, now produces millions
of bushels of the finest hard wheat known
to the world. 1t is the same with the
swampy rice fields along the Gulf of Mexico
which have changed us from a rice import
ing to rice exporting nation, and 30 also
as to the cotton, corn and other crops
which scientific investigation and seed
breeding are increasing beyond the dreams
Of avarice.
1t takes Imagination to see the possibili-
ties of business or Of a scientific fact.
Secretary Wilson has II, and Uncle Sam is
growing rich through the application Of 1t.
He tells me we can double our corn crop,
which is now worth more than twice as
much as all the gold and silver that man
digs from the earth in one year. by merely
using the proper seeds. and that by the
judicious application of the fertilizer Of the
air by means of bacteria we can turn the
worn-out lands of the south into very
Garden of Eden.

Are we improving our stock by breeding
from year to yearT'
Yes The long-horned Texas animal has
about disappeared, and the same is trlle
of scrubs of every kind. We are importing
the best of the foreign breeds and are
greatly increasing our number of pure
blooded cattle. At the last census about
one in a hundred of all our cattle was pure
blooded. and this per cent was, according
to some estimates, worth 10 per cent of the
value Of all the cattle. We had then about
100000 pure blooded animals"
Where did our cattle originator"
''The first that were brought to America
came with Columbus to the West Indies in
1893. They were taken from there to Mex
leo by the Spaniards and thence spread
northward into California, Texas and the
other states along the border. Those cattle
were the ancestors of our Texas cattle. The
Spaniards also sent some into Florida, the
descendants of which found their way
north and formed the basis of the cheap
cattle of Florida and the adjoining states"
How about our blooded stock?"
I'VE imported some from England in
early times, but none of Importance until
the nineteenth century. The Herefords were
first imported into New York and Ken
About 1870 came the Polled Angus, and we
have now shorthorns, Polled Angus, Here

we'll"
do we grow better beef from year to
yearT'
Yes" said Secretary Wilson TT used
to be that the steer was years old before
he was thought fit for the packing house.
Some years later he was marketed at 3
years, and Iowa and Illinois are pow send
ing in stock years old which is equal to
and better than the 4-year-olds of some
time ago. We are learning how to raise
beef and how to breed for It. We put the
meat now where 1t is the most profitable.
1t used to be that the unimproved steer
and the steer from the dairy COW, when
fattened, piled up tallow in their abdomens.
The well-bred steer of today puts his meat
upon his back. so that you can cut beef
steaks clear along him from the horns TO
the hooks"
Are not the prices of meats very high,
Mr. Secretary
"Yes, but there is a reason for It, Our
times are so prosperous now that everyone
enters the markets for the best cuts and
the demand is great"
"Will the time come when the American
laborer cannot afford to eat meat? Will he
be reduced to the condition of the laborer
of Burope?"
IT think not The American will be able
to eat meat as long as live or as you live.
unless we change our public policy in such
a way as to stop the demand for labor and
bring about hard times. AS it is now our
chief meat market is the home market Our
home market is our best market for every
thing. We are the richest people on earth
and the best fed"

Our Meat supply.

But I started out to tell you about my
conversation with the secretary on Ameri-
can meats. His head has been full of them
ever since the investigation OF the Beef
trust, and he has made n number Of quiet
trips during the last year to the packing
centers. dropping into the various estab-
lishments without notice to inspect their
cleanliness and see whether Uncle Sans
agents are doing their duty. He has been
out on the ranges and looked at the animals
there. and has made frequent visits to the
harms and stock yards Of the corn states.
My first question was as to our meat
supply. The secretary said
I'VE have more meat and better meat
than-any other country. Our animals are
out-of-door animals. They have fresh air
both summer and winter. and the percent
age of disease is small Fresh air is as
necessary to the beast as to man 1t makes
pure blood. and pure blood makes good
beef, pork and mutton. You ask as to our
supply. can give you the figures of the
stock on hand the first of this year. We
then had about 100000 cattle. 5o,OoO.OOO
sheep and 100000 hogs. In addition. thera
were about 100000 mich cows. These arc
scattered all over the United States, and
they are the source Of the meat We are
eating today"
What are these animals WORTH"
III you take them as they stand they are
worth many millions Our mich cows now
approximate $500. 1900 In value. our other
cattle are worth $3.50, 10000 and the sheep
and hogs $3.50. 10000 As to the value Of
this stock when ground up into meat and
other products. that would run into the
billions II they were all turned into the
packing houses and sold"
How about our cattle, Mr.. Secretary?
Omaha daily bee. (Omaha [Neb.]) 187?-1922, 1906-10-07

The way we do is to divide the pasture
fields and put the animals on one side
and nothing on the other. The ticks which
are on the ground and breeding, having
no animals to feed upon, soon die, and
after time we can turn the cattle back
into those fields and let the ticks die on
the other side. Before changing We dip
the animals in a mixture which kills tho
ticks upon them, and In this way we are
fast wiping out the pest. Congress has
given us over $4,000 to use for this pur-
pose in the southern states. and the states
themselves will aid in the work. After we
have cleaned out the tick the quarantine
can be lifted, and the southern farmer viii
find a large part Of his profit in raising
meat. You see, the south has many nd-
vantages over the north and west in stock
raising. Its winters are mild. and there
fore less feed is needed to fatten the
stock" FRANK q. CARPENTER
