this will have tendency to shove up
the price paid for good beef cattle.
If we urge people to go into the bust
ness before the time is ripe they are
likely to quit in disgust.
Regarding the closing out of pure
bred herds, am firmly of the opinion
that the owners are making mistake
and that those who have held on so
long should, by all means, continue
in the business for a while longer.
There is every evidence that in the
very near future there will be a
materially increased demand for pure
bred beef animals. 1t may be that L

you will understand my reason for

Very truly yours,
w. IT. MCDONALD.

Editor The Ranch:-The champion
steer at the Northwest Live Stock
Show, held at Portland recently, was
only grade shorthorn. 1 bought
him when he was about ten months
old. He ran with my range cattle
until September 10, 1910. then put
him on rolled oats for about thirty
days; next l fed half rolled oats and
half barley chop for thirty days.
Then 1 quit the oats and put half
rolled wheat with barley chop for the
next thirty days. The next thirty he
was fed rolled wheat straight. The
last forty days fed him rolled corn.
On September 10th, when he was
put on feed his weight was 127O
pounds; when sold in Portland dur
ing the show, he weighed 1850, or a
gain of about one and one-half pounds
per day. It required about thirty
days to get him on full feed. After
this he ate on an average of about IL
pounds per day. He never was off
feed, but ate that amount very
regularly but would take no more.
For roughage he had about Is pounds
of wild hay daily.
Yours truly,
