Why did the value of Texas rise suddenly in 1866?

When the railroads were built into Kansas in 1866, it meant that Texas cattle could be shipped to East Coast markets if they could be herded to the railhead. When the railroads were finally built it was easier to move them from one place to another. And so they did that.

What was the main reason that ranchers began to rise cattle for products other than beef?

Cattle ranchers are and always have raised (not "rise") cattle for beef, they've never began to raise cattle for products other than beef for any reason. Of course you may be referring to those ranchers who raise cattle to sell their cattle to other ranchers who need those type of cattle for their operations. Seedstock or purebred cattlemen still contribute to the beef industry, though, when they cull out cows, bulls, heifers and steered young bulls because they do not fit or are inferior to the type of stock they need to raise to sell to other seedstock producers or commercial producers.

Cattle drives in the United States primarily took place from the mid-1860s to the late 1890s, lasting approximately 30 years. This period was marked by the movement of large herds of cattle from Texas to railheads in Kansas and other locations, driven by the demand for beef in the Eastern markets. The rise of railroads and changes in cattle ranching practices eventually led to the decline of traditional cattle drives.
