in the market for cows and young
stock. This is a step which will
beyond question prove profitable to
those who are buying. for with stock
they will have a sure source of in
come. Hay prices may decline to
such a point that II is improbable to
produce it for the market, but with
plenty Of stock il can be fed, and we
have heard comment which indicates
that feeding Is usually more profit
able than selling hay. Another
source Of income will be from the fer
tilizer which is produced where stock
is kept. This no doubt can be profit
ably used on every ranch where a
part of the ground is cultivated, but
if not, fruit growers may find if
cheaper than commercial fertilizer.
Considerable manure has been used
