RAISE MORE CATTLE.
Why Not Cultivate the Industry in
Lancaster County?

To the Editor of The News:
Feeling as l do, and lrmly be-
lieving that cattle raising can be
made a success in Lancaster county.
l venture to offer a few suggestions
to those widest awake in the interest
OF our county and state at large.
Miss Editor, do you know that we
nave in Lancaster county many peo-
pie, who strongly believe and assert
that III order to raise cattle for the
market, we must 20 West. to Texas
or some other Western state: but.
when they will have considered the
advantages We have FOR raising cat
tie. | am sure they will agree with
me that we are just as we'll prepared
TO raise cattle as our Western
friends, if we would but take ad-
vantage of the requirements around
us. Nature has provided us with
unlimited acres of land that is un-
suited for farming purposes. vet
fertile enough to grow the best of
grasses, and, too, we have an un-
limited supply of fresh water; this
great advantage is an instance. where
we are better suited to raise cattle
than our Western friends, and lastly.
but most important, is our market:
we have a ever increasing market,
the demand constantly growing
greater, for more and better bred
cattle.
Seeing that it is not impossible to
raise cattle to an advantage: | urge
that all our farmers give this uues-
tion more and give 1t closer attention.
Sure this is cotton country. Mr..
Cotton Farmer, but that is Just the
reason why / advocate cattle raising
and more diversified farming. We
have grown cotton so long, and to
such an extent, that we have almost
and in fact are inclined to neglect.
all the other important features of
the :arm uncared for Again I
plead in the behalf of diversified
farming, cattle raising and less
acreage.
MIR. Farmer, wherever you have
wooded land with nothing whatever
growing on il, fence il in, SOW some
good variety Of grass. turn your cat
tie in and begin to raise your blood
ed cattle where YOU have not been
getting any returns; i'm short. raise
fine blooded cattle where heretofore
YOU have been growing nothing but
brush and underground. Perhaps to
some one the preceding thought will
seem foolish, and unwiSe; but, will
YOU stop and consider what our fore
fathers would have rnought of our
modern method of farming; they
would have considered il foolish and
unwise, but nevertheless, we have
made a success of it; and, just so
much so can we make a success of
cattle raising here in Lancaster
county. 1t is my hope that some
wide-awake farmer will begin to
study this question from a business
and scientific standpoint and begin
at once to show the people OF the
county that there arc other means of
making money than the production
of cotton Mr.. Farmer, let your
herd be source of pleasure and the
income will be a source of satisfac-
tion and qualification.
Having taken this step and know
ing that there are few farmers in
the county interested in this ques-
ton, ask your hearty support, Miss
Editor, and, / am,
Yours truly,
II. BELL.
