According to observations on the
tours just concluded, Red River
valley farmers this season are put
ting gains on their lambs in less
time than was required last year,
which is interpreted to mean that
they have improved their feeding
practices. 1t is a fact, also, accord
ing to these tourists, that improve
ment has been made in shelter,
water arrangements and other
equipment. Where much makeshift
and temporary equipment was US
ed last year, most feeders have
provided sheds, fences, feed hunks
and watering troughs of new and
permanent design. The tourists
learned that the practice of turn
ing lambs into cornfields to har-
vest their own feed has been much
more common this fall than last
and many operators have had ex-
ceptionally large and cheap gains
as a result.
One of the conclusions reached
by the tourists was that the Red
River valley lamb feeding program
will always be identified chiefly by
small, individual operator feeding
from two or three to six or eight
cars of lambs year, the volume
determined by the amount of feed
available because practically no
grains or roughages are purchased.
Contact with the feeders of this
territory disclosed that they are
taking a long time view of their
new enterprise and, irrespective of
prices received this year, they plan
to continue next season, and, in
addition, many others are prepar-
ing thus early to feed next fall.

Five Million pounds of lamb are
being manufactured this year on
North Dakota and Minnesota feed
lots as one of the results of a rap
idly developing new industry
which invoices the feeding of lambs
from central Oregan and Montana
ranges before being marketed.
A series of demonstration tours
in the two states just has been
completed. Thirty-eight farms, on
which either lambs or cattle are
being fed in LaMoure, Richland
and Cass counties in North Dakota
and Clay county in Minnesota,
were visited by farmers, livestock
commission men, Montana lamb
producers, packer buyers and rail-
road officials. Sponsored by the
agricultural development depart
ment of the Northern Pacific Rail-
way, these tours were conducted
with the cooperation of county
agents and community and civic
clubs. According to the sponsors
the tours demonstrated that the
shift from wheat to meat" taking
place in the Red River valley Of
North Dakota and Minnesota is a
definite, organized and economical
" sound movement with sufficient
momentum accomplished to estab-
lish it permanently.
The tour disclosed to the farm
visitors that 100000 range lambs
are being fed by approximately
300 farmers. Last year in the same
area 100000 lambs were fed, and
the previous year only few hun
hundred were imported for feeding.
By the end of the present feeding
period 100000 pounds of lamb,
which represents the amount of
gain in weight which will be put
on, will have been manufactured in
North Dakota and Minnesota feed
lots. Forty million pounds of grain,
together with 100000 pounds of
roughage, will have been used to
produce that volume of meat.
Authorities who have made
study of this new industry declare
that lamb and cattle feeding have
become permanent in this territory
because Of five important factors.
They are:
Continuous cropping of land in
wheat for SO years has made i'm
perative the need for fertilizer,
legumes and cultivation crops to
restore fertility, improve the ply
