WISE SHEEP MEN

Fulton H. Sears, well known Har-
mon district attorney-farmer, clipped
his band of about forty sheep at the
usual time last Spring and sent the
wool forward to a Utah mill where
he had it made into blankets of the
highest coarse wool quality. Thirty
eight splendid double sleeping covers
resulted and Mr.. Sears estimates that
after paying all necessary expenses
his wool will net him marketed in
this way about S5 cents per pound

II this Government refuses Ford's
offer to buy Muscle Shoals. and use
the power to produce cheap n~itrates
for farm fertilizer, the farmers ought
to put in a different Government at
the ext election.
Ford can do the work. He has the
money and will PAY, not CHEAT the
Government. He agrees to no profit
on fertilizer in excess of eight per
cent-and the Government can ex
anime the books. Farmers know what
profit on fertilizer they have been
paying. They know what Ford does
to prices. Other men that would
cheat the Government, and exploit
the farmers want the plant. That is
the trouble with Ford's offer.

THE LONG DRIVES

Besides the COW towns, the other
great market for beef was the Indian
reservations. The Government by
that time Tin the '7Os) had rounded
up most of the Indians and put them
on reservations, and whisky and con-
sumption had not yet reduced their
numbers greatly. Hence Uncle Sam
had thousands Of Indians to feed, and
he fed them largely on beef. Prob
ably the longest cattle drives and the
most profitable ones were made from
the southern ranges to the Indian
reservations in Montana and the Da-
kotas. Some cattleman with political
pull would get a contract to deliver a
certain number Of 3-year-old beef
steers at a point in Montana on a GER
tain day. He would organize a trail
outfit, go down into Texas or Mexico
where cattle were cheap, buy his
steers, and drive them half the length
of the continent. 1t was in these long
drives hat the skill of the cowman
was seen at its best. Rivers had to
be forded. Indians fought, buffalo
herds kept away from the cattle.
stampedes checked. The cowboy on
these drives was no loose and drunk

twenty-seven years to work away from
