BIG MONEY IN PEAS AND LAMBS

Montrose Enterprise.
There are now 100000 lambs being
fed on peas in the San Luis valley,
all to be shipped within the next
three months says the Monte Vista
journal.
Why is It that the farmers OF the
UncompahRre valley have neglected
this important branch of industry
Peas grow luxuriantly here. and make
splendid feed. and the winters are far
more moderate in temperature and
consequently lambs would do better
here than In the high altitude of the
San Luis valley. The feeding of 400.
900 lambs alone means over million
and half Of dollars brought into that
valley. But why is such thing neg
