The Missouri River Valley is one of the most successful hog sections of the U. S., and corn has always been the basis of this industry. Today one of the nipst popular stock-fattening, foods in the Missouri River re gion is a mixture of alfalfa meal and sugar beet pulp, which is produced in Colorado. Advices recently received from that state show that numerous new mills are being erected, and certainly the -Pacific Northwest should give this industry every possible, encouragement, and this is par ticularly, true since the great in ternational concerns like "Swift & Co. and others have decided to locate upon the Pacific Coast, and they are spending millions of dollars in building their, plants at Portland. A good re liable fattening food equal to corn would make this section, of the U. S. the very richest portion of onr great Republic.
