To tho mcmbura ot
committee of tho
Stock Associntlnn.
Gentlemen:
In making my annual report to tho
members of the National Livestock
Association. 1 shall go Into a detailed
statement as to the efforts put forth
during the past year, what tho stock
men desire of tho association in tho
future, ami tho condition of tho or
ganization, with tho hope that this In
formation may prompt tho members
lu give It titl. .uppuii and assistance
which It deserves, taking Into con
sideration tho fact that It Is absolute
ly In their Interest.
I regret to say that tho unfavorable
conditions which tho industry has ex
perienced during the past year has not
prompted tho generous financial or
moral siT,)rt wo have had heretu
joif. i.iiu ,1,14 prevented a large num
ber of delegates from tho central and
eastern states from attending this
convention as they very much de
sired to tto.
It Is with deep regret that 1 am
owiged to announce to you tho death
ui our uencrai Counsel at

Legislation.
I nm nlcascd to advise you that ear.
ly In February tho bill which the is-
sociatlon caused to bo Introduce.! in
tho Fifty-Seventh Congress providing
for fedeml Inspection on all interstate
shipments of live stock, passed the
senate and became a law. The, m.
actment of this bill will bo an Im
mense saving to thff live stock shlp-
rers or mis country.
All other measures which wo had
before kici congress failed of passage
because of the deadlock In the senate
over the Panama canal and Statehood
bills. These measures were re-Introduced
at the beginning of tho special
session of the Forty-eighth congress,
being as follows: "A Hill Providing
for a Classified Census of Livestock,"
calling upon the president to appoint
a commission to Investigate and re
port upon the forest reserves and con
ditions of the arid and semi arid
states, with a view of agreeing upon
some bill for the amiable adjustment
of these difficulties. In this connec
tion I am glad to report that me
pifsident complied with our request,
and on November 30th appointed as
this commission Hon. W. A. Richards,
commissioner of the general land of
fice; Hon. Gilford Piuchot, Chief
Forester of the Department of Agri
culture, and Hon. F. H. Jewell, Chlsf
Englneei of the Department of Geo
logical Survey, with Instructions to
report at the rarnest possible date.
This association desired In addition
to these three, one practical cattle
man and one practical sheep man,
but tlje Chief Executive did not deem
this advisable. However, this com
mission Is quite satisfactory and no
doubt will be of great service In reach
nig the iR sired, ccnrlU3lon. I desire
also to say that the sentiment is rap
idly growing towards individual con
trol of the grazing lands of this coun
try, and in my opinion It is a question
of but a short time before some satis
factory agreement will be reached
between Interested 'parties.
The Antl-Shoddy Bill.
1 The Grosvenor Anti-Shoddy 1)111
1 was also re-introduced at this session.
I The principal opposition to tho pas
sage of the measure comes from mem
bers of tbe National Association of
Woo) Manufacturers. Their argument
' is, that we seek to prevent the manu-
torture of fuouuj in any tonn. Their
promises being false, It follows that
their argument against this measure
Is eminently unfair as well as unrea
1 sonable This association seeks only
j to have manufacturers stamp their
: goods, giving the percentage of shod
I riy the same as manufacturers of
i Oleomargarine are compelled to stamp
tbe'r product The manufacturers al
so object to the section of our bill
providing for federal Inspectloa,
lalmlng that r T:t. ,:a a nuirimeiu
ii i.r., noSs t0 havc their mills
filled with these officials. It does not"
seem that this argument should have i
any weigiu, ior tne reason that feder
ii inspectors in all of the pack!
nouses Oi IIIO COUntrv. ill.-.-.mnr.rl
actor ps. distilleries, etc., do not work
a detriment to the business. I Invited
the Hon. C. H. Harding, president of
the National Association of Wool
Manufacturers to attend this meeting
or designate some person to discuss
this question with you, but ho re
futed. Unloading Time Limit.
A bill has also been reintroduced,
nrovldlng for extension of the time
limit for unloading live stock In tran
sit west of tho one hundredth merid
ian from twenty-eight to forty hours:
also a bill transferring matters per
taining to forest reserves from tho
Department of the Interior to tho II
tiartmcnt of Agriculture: a bill com
pelling transportation companies to
haul all livestock in tralnload lots
ot ten cars or more at a minimum of
twenty miles per hour. Wo hnvo nU

no amount of rubbing or blistering can cure Rheumatism, because it
is not a skin disease, but is in the blood and all through the system,.
and erery time you are exposed to the same comlitions that caused
the first attack, you are going to have another, and Rheumatism'
will last just as long as the poison is in the blood, no matter what
you apply externally. Too much acid in the blood is one causa of.
nneumatism ; stomacK troubles, bad UigcttioM, weak kidneys
torpid liver are other causes
which bring: on this painful dis
ease, because the blood becomes
tainted with the poisonous mat

carry out of the system. Cer

Rheumatism, and of all forms
this is the most stubborn and
severe, for it seems to affect
every bone and muscle in the

Wool Hides and Tariff.
I have to advlso you that Senator
Lodge has Introduced a bill In con
gress providing for tho removal of
tariff on hides. Should this bill ho
come a law, tho loss would not fall
upon the Importer or manufacturer,
but upon the man who produces tho
animal. The average tariff being
S1.25 for every hide. It would cause
the cattle raisers of tho nation to
lose $12,500,00 annually. In tho1
event Mr. Lodges bill should meet
with favor at the hands of congress,
there Is no question but that an at
tempt would immediately bo made
to remove the tariff from wool. If a
law of this chancier should be en
acted. It would mean a loss to the
sheep Industry because of tho reduc
tion In the prlco of wool of at least
$33,000,000 per annum, and wo are
Justified in saying that tho price f
sheep would be reduced, to "the figure
which prevailed under tho fiee trade
law when they varied from 98 cents
to ?l."r per head.
Transportation.
During the past year I have receiv
ed a great many letters from ship
pers, complaining that transportation
companies failed to furnish tho neces
sary equipment In which to transport
stock, often necessitating shipments
to be held for weeks near the load
ing point; that rates have been ma
terially Increased; that the time in
hauling to market often did not ex
ceed six or seven miles per hour;
and trains wero sidetracked and du
layed for dead freight, thereby caus
ing great loss to shippers by reason
of Increased feed bills and shrinkage;
also that railroad companies had de
cided to withdraw return tranaporta-
