Denver-Two urgent appeals to
Colorado cattle growers are being
made by the Colorado Council of De-
Tense. One is that they buy more
breeding and beef cattle, the other.
that they save their young cattle.
The live stock survey board OF the
council has found that many live
stock men, fearing that prices for cat
tie will decline next year, are selling
their young stock and that others are
selling because they wish to sell their
hay at the present high prices.
Careful investigation by the board
has convinced it that both the prices
for live stock and for live stock feeds
OF various kinds will be very good
during 1918 and probably for several
years afterwards. says A. E. de
Ricqles. chairman Of the board. The
growers will make money by feeding
their hay to their stock.
The committee on markets of the
council is urging all cattle growers
who can to seize advantage of the op-
portunity now offered in Texas, New
Mexico. Wyoming and Montana to OBJ
tain breeding and feeding stock.
Drought, shortage OF hay and of water.
is forcing growers In the others states
to sell at very reasonable prices.
Colorado has surplus Of hay and can
absorb much of this stock Many
growers are already buying. cars be-
ing assured them by the National Car
Service Commission. w. H. Kerr,
chairman Of the committee, has COM
plete details regarding herds for sale
at the office of markets. Custom House
building, Denver.
