Walter A. Stebbins tells Theodore Roosevelt about a joint agricultural venture he is involved in organizing, aiming to capitalize on low prices for land suitable for growing alfalfa and high prices for the resulting hay able to be manufactured. If Roosevelt is interested, or knows of someone else who may be, Stebbins offers to speak with them to explain how the venture will be safe and profitable.
