CATTLE RAISING
LARGE SCALE
W. R. Bell, of Billings, Montana,,
for 30 years in the cattle raisirg busi
ness, is go'ng to the Kenai peninsula
with 50 head of cows and several
mares and horses, because he thinks
that country offers great opportuni
ties with its hundreds of acres of hay
to raise cattle on a paying basis.
Mr. Bell has recently returned from
a four months’’ visit with a guide to
j many points in the Kenai peninsula
i country. While there he filed on a
'section of land, with a partner, of 640
acres, upon which he will engage In
the cattle raising business. He has
located in the Kachmak bay region.
He has left for his old home in Mon
I tana to get an outfit which will com
I prise 50 cows, seven or eight mares,
horses, and farming implements, and
will return to Alaska and proceed to
the Kenai country where he will erect
buildings on his homestead and do
other work towards opening up his
cattle ranch. If the success attains
his efforts which he confidently ex
pects he will operate on a very large
scale.
Bell is favorably Impressed with the
country for cattle raising. He saysj
that hundreds of acres of fine hay ig toj
be found which a^a feed for cattle is
excellent, it having good food values, i
He tells of one cow, seven years old,
which had lived on the growths of the
country solely, weighing 976 pounds
j when dressed. Also he is of the opin'
ion that cattle of some kind have
roamed that country for many years.
He saw unmistakable signs of this in
several of the old Russian settlements
he visited.
While out to the westward he met
professor C. C. Jorgenson who be
came intereseted in his plans, and re
quested him to loan the Kodiak ex
perimental station a stallion which he
will bring to the country along wfTh
his cattle and horses.
When a man like Bell, with 30 years’
experience in the cattle business over
the great ranges of Montana elects to
cast his lot In cattle raising on the
great hills and valleys of Kenai penin'
1 sula on a large scale, because he be
: lieves there are unlimited possibilities
I in that industry, it well becomes the
I farmers now in that section and those
, contemplating engagaing in farming or
I other pursuits out that way to con
; sider seriously the question of cattle
raising.
