Many land owners, relying on these representations, sold their livestock land. Others, in order to secure a Jarge grazing permit, bought more livestock during the peak prices of 1935. Both were disappointed for the reason that the government dropped the undertaking like a hot. potato. ‘Those who sold out had nothing left with which to start over, as they lost the sale of their lands, and those who bought cattle and sheep at 1935 flush prices were compelled to sell them again in the 1936 drouth, losing heav- ily on the venture.” Possibilities Small Irrigation will be of some help to the area if it can be developed, Michelson said, but only a small fr tion of the land is susceptible to irr! entire district is pressing.
