Cattle and Sheep’ Shipped \ from State Last Fall Escape Se-__ vere Storms Which Took Big Toll (Special to The Tribune.) CHEYENNE, Wyo., 19.—Re- ports of Uvektock industry. conditions, thruout Wyeming are © alarming and were it not for the fact that there are in the stdte at this time only. about two-fifths as,many livestock as custom- arily are carried into the winter, ‘un- precedented losses might be forecgst. The suceession of blizzards of the last ten days, combined with ‘phenomenally | low temperatures. created a critical situation In numerous localities, es- pecially im the Red desert region of Sweetwater and Carbon counties and in Campbet and Weston counties. In the desert scores of thousands’ of sheep, driven before the blizzards until bands have become almost hopelessly mixed, Were huddled in misery at points where ffostbitten herders en- deavored to reassemble them in flocks and get them to places where they may be fed. In Weston and Campbell coun- ties the ‘@eep snow and extremely low temperatures already have caused heavy losses and heavier losses are in prospect. Cattle there have falien and perished while being driven to the ral road for feed or shipment. Every other locality of the state reports a discour- aging situation, but in the localities mentioned the conditions are extreme and the livestock owners face ruinous losses. In some localities, it is stated, deer, elk and antelope have been driven by hunger to mix with domestic cattle herded for feeding near ranchhouses. The wild €reatures go not flee when herders approach, the misery of starva- tion having conquered their fear of man. ae LESION BALL PROJECTED TOFINANCE BANQUET IN WINDING UP BIG DANE ‘The American Legion post of Casper give a dance Saturday, December *. the proceeds to go tcward a banquct whch will wind up the local portion ef the state drive for 4000 members ‘n the legion. - This action was taken fast night at the regular meeting of the te- gicn held in the Army and Navy clu» tooms, Legion members and ex-serviee men have heen invited to the dance on De- cember 27.
