EXPLAIN BEEF COST
EXPERT FINDS PRODUCTION HAS
FALLEN OFF HALF IN LAST
SEVEN YEARS.
WYOMINGDECREASE MARKED
Raising Of Cattle Has Been Cut Down
IS Per Cent in rha Time, Ranges
Giving Way to Sheep and Small
Farms, He Declares.

Ames. la.-Prof. W. j. Kennedy, o

Holden, has returned from an extend
ed tour Of the western states. where
he vent for the purpose OF Judging
beef cattle. horses and hogs in the
Washington state fair. and horses in
the fair at Salt Lake City. Utah.
Prof. Kennedy. while in the west
primarily for the purpose ot judging
at these fairs, made his trip The oc.
casicn of a complete review o: the
beef cattle situation in the west.
According TO Prof Kennedy, he finds
in the eight states that he visited the
beef cattle industry has decreased
anywhere from 40 TO 80 per cent IT.
the last seven years.
This decrease is most marked he
said, lin the state of Wyoming. where
the percentage of beef cattle raised is
not more than Is per cent OF what II
was eve years ago. As an example
OF just how this enormous decrease
Is kOIuS On, IL Was AObSu AHaN 'hAN'
OF the very large ranches situated
near Cheyenne, Wyo. which r
known TO keep about 100000 head OF
cattle seven years ago, have gone out
OF the cattle business entirely. Two
of them have been wholly turned over
10 sheep raising. while the third has
been cut up into small farms for the
raising of farm crops.
And all this takes place in Wyom-
ing, which seven years ago was the
leading beef cattle producer in the
west. Yet the decrease in production
is not confined TO Wyoming alone-all
of the western states are suffering a
similar decrease to a slightly less de
gree.
The reasons for this great decrease
in this line OF agriculture is largely
explainable by an increase in some OF
the other divisions OF that great
science. Wyoming in particular, has
taken very largely TO raising sheep.
and some of the other states I visited
follow very close upon her heels in
this change of faith"
