"Oh! man, If I could tell you, if I

by-ways and preach to the people of
! Klamath Falls and Klamath county
, and tell them that they have here one
of the best live stock sections in tho
whole west, I would do it, for it
would be thc means ot bringing to
Klamath millions upon millions of
dollars that are now passing you by
every year. Your lumber interests
here are great, your scenic attrac
tions still greater, your agricultural
possibilities aro wonderful, but great
er than all combined is the live stock
Industry. There are no fluctuations
in It. Hard time will not affect it. The
people always have and always wilt
eat meat. They can stop building, you
can have labor troubles, you can have
bard times, the people will stop trav
elling, crop failures will come, but
the livestock industry goes right on
the even course it has always penned
and if you bring it to Its highest
state of development in this county,
will bring to you millions of dollars
every year."
That is the way that enthusiast,
that optimist, that purveyor ot good
cheer and helpfulness; O. M. Pin t
mer, manager of the Pacific Interna
tional Exposition, expressed himself
lust night after a visit to the Malta
and Fort Klamatn sections of the
county, accompanied by Leslie Risen,
ot the First National bank. Continu
ing he said:
"If the development of your alfal
fa ranches continues for the Best
five years and the price ot that com
modity remains the same as it is to
day, you will be producing $25,000,
000 worth of alfalfa every year. Fte-t
people believe this statement, for
they don't know. That is why I would
like to be able to talk to them la. sv
way that would convince them. If
these results are obtained in the
growing of alfalfa you will have to
have something to eat it and live
stock is the answer. The condlUoas-.
here are Ideal for it. Pure bred lrt
stock Is what you want. I toiay saw
in the Fort Klamath section a three
months old calf that Is worth today
as much as a three-year old Arizona,
steer that stood beside It. Next year
that calf will be worth more than
the Arizona animal. The contrast was.
so great that it even amazed the
stockmen present and was an ocular
demonstration of the value of pure
bred stock that was unanswerable.
"Right here In this valley the farm
ers should be raUing and selling 10
the sheepmen that surround them on
a'l sides the hundreds of pure bred
bucks that they aro buying else
where. The same is true of bogs.
Every acre of your alfalfa land can be
made to bo worth two or three hun
dred dollars an nore. And the whole
secret lies in pure bred stock.
"In your Malln section, I have
seen something that I always believ
ed to be impassible. I have seen them
cut two tons of alfalfa to the acre the
first year. I saw alfalfa that will
cut five tons to tho acre for one cutt
ing I have seen crops unequalled any
where In the west that I have visited.
And yet with all these possibilities, I
look around and am saddeued -when I
see scattered thru this magnificent
territory scrub stock waste, waste,
waste. But there Is a change coming.
Tho farmers are beginning to see that
this talk about pure bred stock is
not tho talk of a promoter, or a man
who has something to sell. They are
beginning to seo lhat It Is the advice
of friends men who have devoted
their lives to tho industry and lovo
it. They are beginning to see that it
costs no more to raise a puie bred
calf than it does n scrub and that the
former Is ready for the market earlier
and brings a higher price than the
latter. Seeing Is believing and I ex
pect to seo a great change take place
in Klamath County and I believe the
dav Is not far distant when It will be
'one of the supply markets of the
west."
