outgrowth of the evolution that has
been going on in the live stock devel-

of live stock in the western country

with the class OF stock which is most
desirable for sale, particularly at this

Peas as a Beef Producer

Senator Tom Ehrhart of Chaffee
county, Colorado, who is in Denver,
attending to his duties in the legisla
ture, has entered steer in the West
ern Stock Show, which opens Jan. 49,
28, that will attract mucn attention.
The steer is being fattened entirely
on peas. which grow to perfection in
Senator Ehrhart's locality
L do not know that the steer is
anything particularly fancy. hat all
of our people are greatly interested in
knowing the result of the feeding we
have been DOING said Senator Ehr-
hart in the lobby at the Albany the
other evening. Unfortunately, | have
been 20 busy with other matters that
l have not been able to give the feed
ing the personal attention I would
have wished, but we are going to try
him out in the show We are not
only going to have the animal judged
on the hoof, but it is to be slaugh-
tered and we will test the quality of
the meat under the hide.
"Chaffee county is one of the first
places where peas were grown success
fully in the state. and today we are
engaged in raising large part of the
seed for the San Luis valley. If we
can MAKE prime beef of good quality
by feeding peas, our stockmen will go
into it heavy That is the reason we
are interested.
Plans are being made to help out
Senator Ehrhart with his test. A few
weeks after the show, when the meat
of his steer has had time to ripen in
the coolers quiet dinner will be
held at the Stockmeu's club Only
epicures will be invited and the fea-
ture of the banquet will be two loins
Of beef. one from the pea fed steer
and one from fed of choice
quality. After eating, the guests
will he asked to pass judgment. Those
mem bers of the senate who have
heard Of the scheme all want to be
included, and Senator Tom is afraid
that he will have to dine the whole
senate to keep peace.

stock be properly finished but also the
fact that it was profitable to do So
Formerly 1t was necessary for the
stockman to ship his feeders to the
corn belt to be fattened and finished
for the market and now that the live
stock market of Denver has made such
rapid strides and the demand for fat
stock has increased. 1t is no longer
necessary, nor in the future will it be
profitable, for the stockman to sell his
stock as feeders.
EVERY live stock center differs in
the character of fat stock which is
most in demand and I am quite sure
that every stockman who expects in
the future to market his stock in Den
yer, would be greatly benefited by
visiting the coming show and ascer-
tanning for himself what class of stock
sell best at this market For in
stance, certain weight cattle are near
ly always at premium here and the
same applies too both hogs and sheep,
become familiar with exactly what
is wanted by the packers, he would
invariably realize more from his ship
ments.
Eastern growers have for many
years realized the Importance from an
educational standpoint of the various
stock shows which are given annual
ly, which is attested to by the fact
that the attendance at all the shows
has shown an enormous increase each
year over the one previous. The west
ern grower must realize that in order
to get the best results he must be able
to take advantage of the experience of
others and this is best brought about
by the annual exhibition of stock
brought from various sections Of the
country"
