Stockmen:
The annual meeting of the National
Livestock association will be held In
Denver January 30, 31 and February
1.
Matters af the utmost Importance
to all of you demand a representation
from your state or locul associations
at this meelug. Among the reasons
for your presence here will be the
consolidation of the National Live
stock association and the American
Stockgrowers" association Into one
great livestock organization represent
ing the entire livestock producing In
terests of the entire country; this or
ganization will be effected upon the
following basis which was adopted
by a conference committee of the two
associations hld In Denver, October
20 nnd 21:
First: The membership to consist
of livestock producing and maturing
Interests of the country.
Second: The constitution and by
laws of the American Stockgrowers
association, modified so as to admit
to membership associations of live
stock producers, as well as Individu
als, to be made the basis.
Third: One strong central commit
tee, appointed by the association thus
formed, to carry on the business of
the association.
Fourth: The association to co-operate
with all allied Interests through
such sub-committees as may be ap
pointed by the executive committee

ciation and such allied Interests are
mutual.
Fifth:. The objects of the organi
zation thus formed will be to repre
sent the livestock interests In all mat
ters of general and public Import
ance, and to conserve the Interests,
protect the rights and to redress the

SuhJetctM to Be WHCnwd.
The central committee of your asso
ciation hnve put forth strenuous ef
forts In behalf of the reciprocity
movement to open op the markets of
the foreign countries' that are gradu
ally closing down upon us. and at
present It looks as though temporary
arrangement will be made with Ger
many, to be followed by a more per
manent basis satisfactory to the in
terests of both nations. The extension
of the 28-hour law; the increased ap
propriation for agricultural and exper
imental stations and the Inspection of
meats, must demand the attention of
every stockman.
The land question In which you are
Interested grazing upon the forest
reserves or upon the public domain
outside of the reserve is a question
that will demand a great deal of at
tentlon at our meeting. Secretary
Wilson, of the department of agrlcul
ture, and Mr. Ptnehot, chief forester
of the agricultural department, ex
pect to be here and outline the gov-
eminent' policy both a to the forest
reserves and the public domain ana
expect to be largely guided by the ex
pressions of the stockmen at this na
tional meet the same to be the con
census of the public opinion umong
he stockmen. This one question
alone should be of sufficient interest
to bring 5000 stockmen to Denver.
Commencing Monday. January 29,
the Western Livestock Show Is to be
held here at the Union Stock Yards,
and at the present time has every in
dication of being a splendid success.
This Is a western affair and one which
is Intended to show the Improvement
which has been made In the stock In
dustry from the range standpoint and
one which will be of educational ad
vantage to every stockman present.
Two thousand dollars In prizes has
been hung by the stock show and this
has been duplicated by speclaul prizes
from Individual stockmen nnd Pure-
Bred Record association so those
who exhibit will be well repaid for
the efforts they may put forth.
The citizens of Denver are putting
forth every effort to entertain you
while here and you should not miss
this opportunity for coming Into con
tact with your fellow stockmen from
all over the country. There shopld be
no necessity for urging your attend
ance for this Is to your own Individ
ual Interest.
Please let me know at once what
representation we may anticipate
from you, their names and addresses,
and when you arrive In Denver please
report as soon as possible at head
quarters. 211 Qulncy building.
