Gunnison County is known as a

shortage Of water in the Gunnison
country, aud the oldest inhabitant
cannot remember crop failure
This last winter was particularly
long and severe in Colorado; vet
the 10000 head Of cattle and 10000
head of horses fed in Gunnison
county were brought through
in splendid condition with less
than two per cent loss, which
Is hardly the ordinary shortage

Not only this, but our cattlemen
also disposed Of 10000 tons OF
surplus hay at prices ranging to
$50 a ton.
This record is due not alone to
such superb natural conditions as
two million acres Of splendid range
and a never falling crop of 5000
tons Of best timothy, native, red
top and alfalfa hay, but to the care
which our stockmen give their
cattle and horses. This IS preemi-

this is usually fed, for it is a truism
that the better the spring condition
of stock. the better the calf crop
and the better the fall beef ship
men;s Most of our progressive
cattlemen are now supplied with
ample shed room and with warm
water for stock, two essentials for
commercial beef production. As a
result Gunnison cattle so to mar

into killing beef on straight hay

sold as surplus each fall and winter
average well toward $40 a head, or
a payroll of half a million for the
ranchmen in stock alone
Although distinguished as a hay

crops as oats, barley. rye and field
peas is not neglected. The acreage
Tor 1909 promises TO exceed that Of
any former year for thirty per cent.
These grains grow to perfection in

strong returned one week ago from
an extended trip through the south

server of conditions in that section
of the country and was much disap-
pointed in it. He found the cities
progressive and com"aring favorably
with northern cities but the rural
sections were not as progressive as
the north. He is Of the opinion that
the northwest still offers the best In

his living to go south or southwest.
