evolution. 1t is now in the last phase
bf that evolution, where the stock farm

the point where it has become imper
ative for the western cattlemen to breed
their own cattle, and it is believed that
with small herds and plenty Vt feed the
business can be made more profitable

The annual Stock Show at Denver has
been big factor in educa ing the stock
men to the modern methods Of success

The outlook for Denver's live stock
market was never so bright as at the
present time. There is every indica.
tion that the run Of cattle this fail will
be the largest ever known here. The
supply Of hogs has increased nearly fif.
ty per cent In few months Denver
has become one OF the leading horse
markets OF the country. Colorado will
feed more sheep and lambs next fall
than ever before The Stock Yards
Company is making plans for extensive
enlargements and improvement at the
yards. The packing houses are taxed
to their capacity and are also planning
for extensive enlargements to meet the
growing business.
Live stock is the basis Of all agricul
ture in the west. Denver is rapidly be
coming the central marketing and pack
ing plant for all Of the live stock of the
Rocky Mountain section With the live
stock trade goes the jobbing trade OF
all the territory from which Denver
draws the live stock. For this reason
the growing of the Denver live stock
market means more to Denver business
interests than the development Of any
other single industry. The Commercial

WANT SIZE OF THE

The report of the question of re. ducing homesteads in Alaska from 32O to 16O acres begins by a letter from A. Christensen, chief of the field division, to Clay Tallman, cominis sioner of the general land office, in which is stated that the chief reason for asking the reduction Is that as me tillable land in Alaska is usually in small valleys, all the land would be taken up by a few people, who would, anyhow, never be able to cultivate it all. He says that he was instrument al in getting Chairman Edes, of the railroad commission to write to the secretary of the interior recommend ing the reduction in size.

B|C EXPORTS OF FOODST UFFS
 LAST MONTH

WASHINGTON, April 23-Secretary of Commerce Redfield today made a report to the president in which he stated that American exports for the current fiscal year would reach the enormous total of two and three-quar- ters billions of dollars.

In the opinion of MT. Redfield the bus mess outlook is improving every day, and he believes that a new feeling Of business confidence is spreading throughout the land The greatest increase in exports has been in food and breadstuffs. The exports of breadstuffs last month reached fifty nine million dollars as compared with eight million for the month of March, 1914. The exports of breadstufrs since the war broke out has totalled $41S,OOO, ,OOO.
