Federal Office Reports. are the best in Wyoming rances years, the Iamb crop will be « fourth larger than last year, an average calf crop w markable increase in condition are the outstand res of the Wyo ming liv according to the monthly re issued the divis ion of crop and livestock estimates of the Unit department of agriculture Wyoming office. Prospects for fe this fall and winter are most promising. A few re- ports of dry spots came from the northeastern section of the state High ranges are late but feed pros pects are good. The condition of the ranges are 102 per cent of normal a ring June. gain of 3 points d Cattle. Cattle improved wonderfully during June and some of the old time stock men report that they have never seen cattle take on flesh more rapidly. With the good feed the prospects for deef are very good and grass fat cat tle is 99 per cent 7 points higher than on June first. Losses have been light and for the first f of the year is entimated at 3 per cent which is con- siderably below the losses during the same period last yi Calf Crop—It is calves were born during the first half | of the year for each 100 cows on hand January 1 and that about 6 per cent of the number born were lost leaving crop of 51 per cent or about ., Which is abgut the same aa last year. Cattlemen report that due to the dry conditions on the rango| last fall that there will bo more late; calves than last year and some aec-| tions wil! have a few more dry cows than last year. Prospective Movements— The re| ports received in this office indicates that from 15 to 20 per cent more cat-| tle will be available for shipment than | last fall. The movement however will! be measured to a great extent by fi-| nancial conditions, prices and the fu-| ture outlook for the cattle business during the next 60 to 90 days. Cattle | ™men are very much discouraged by| present prices and tho price that they | im turn must pay for other commod- ities, as it !s very evident that the Present cost of production ta above that-received for catle. Sheep. Sheep are in very good confition and have tmproved on good feed dur-| ing the past month, and a condition | of 101 per cent, a gain of 2 points during June is reported. Losses have | been light and are estimated at 4.2/ per cent since January 1 while losses | last year during the same period were nearly double this number. Lamb Crop—The Wyoming lamb crop is good ‘an losses have been light but reports from over the state indicate many dry ewes, which In sdme cases run from 20 to 30 per cent. The net lamb crop its placed at 72 per cent it is estimated that 80 lambs were born for each 100 ewes on hand January 1 and that 10 per cent of the number wero lost. This would indicate that on July 1 the state had about 1,451,000 lambs compared to 1,154,000 Iambs one year ago or a gain of 26 per cent over jast year. Tho 1922 crop was cut short by the hea losses during the May storm, but the sheepmen repert that there are more dry ewes than last year. Proapective Shipments — Reports from over the state indicate that the lamb movement this fall will be from 10 to 15 per cent heavier than last season and that the movement of o!d sheep will range from 5 to 10 per cent higher than last year. Some tions report that there will be a tend- ency to hold ewe lambs and sell off old ewes, as it is evident that some sections have more than the umual number of old ewes, due to the tend- ency to sell owe lambs the past few years. As it !s rather carly to fore- cast the movement so far there has been Uttle evidence of contracts or sales of lambs for fa'l delivery, early in the searon some contracts were made in Johnson county at about 10/ cents, while recent reporia of lambs eales come from the central part of the state with prices at from 9 to 10 cents. Woo! tically no sal June was marked with prac “3 and offera of 39 to 43 cents, growers seemed hold dirm for higher prices and It now seems that most cf the p unsold will be shipped or consigned. About 35 to 40 per cent of the clip has been sold, few sales have been made along the Union Pacific west of Laratnie while in the north central section the bulk ef the clip was sold with some sales in tho Casner and other north- ern and central ions, ALLEGED JURY tala [are [ FIXERS FREED WAUKEGAN, It., Juty 18—A sequel to the trial and acquittal of Fred Lundin in Chicago Inst week was enacted yesterday in the acquit tal of E4ward Courtney, Edward Kaufman and John B.

PAUL, Minn., July United States government, 18.—The} through Attorney General Harry M. Daugn- erty, yesterday filed a petition in federal district court here seeking) vision of the International Har-| vester company into three separate corporations. The government alleges that the dissolution decreé entered against the company in 1918 did not restore competition in the farm implement industry; that the company still is a competitive concerns {s shrinking| steadily. | The dissolution petition was pre- sented by a special representative of the Attorney general's office in Wash-; ington, which will handle the case for) the government. Federal court is not in session here | now and the petition was locked up in a safe until the return of Federal Judge J. F. Me! and United States District Attorney LaFayette French, Jr., from Duluth. The filing of the petition brought| about a speedy reply from Alexander Legge, of Chicago, president of the company. Mr. Legge's statement intended that the company was ac- showing @ Te monopoly and that the number of| quitted of wrongful acts and unfair competition In 1918. He said that the petition charges| the company with lotering prices to the detriment of competitors, not| Asked by Daugherty with raising them to the injury of the farmer. Hearings on the peti- tion, he said, will show that farm machinery prices are the result of sharp competition in the industry. The government will seek a new decree holding that the Harvester company is stil a “combination in restraint of interstate trade and com-| merce." Farmers of the country will suffer if the company's “monopolistic con- trol” of farm machinery is allowed to continue, the petition recites. The 1918 decree, according to Mr. Daugh- erty, has proved “inadequaté” to break up the alleged restraint of trade and restore competition in the production of farm machinery. RAILROAD TRACK TORN UP AND ‘FORT’ BUILT OR BY CLAIMANT TO MONTANA LAND HELENA, Mont., July 18.—The United States district attorney of-| fice here is awaiting definite word of further law violation before taking any additional action in the case of Elmer Thompson, who was arrested recently on a charge of obstructing the United States mails on the Soo| Ine into Whitetail, Mont. Thomp- son tore up the railroad tracks, the| railroad company alleges, for a dis-| tance of about 210 feet, and in addi-| tion to building a cabin or “fort” where the rails had been, recon- structed an irrigation ditch which the railroad had filled in when the steel | was laid. He claims to have occu- pled the land for 29 years. | After giving bond Thompson 1s| said to have returned to his “fort’’| an@-driven off a section crew which was just finishing the work of re- placing the track. Official word of| this, however, has not been reported | to the federal authorities here and} they contemplate no action until fur- ther legal proceedings are had. J. B. Platt, deputy U. S. marshal who, with Sheriff Rodney Salisbury of Sheridan county, arrested Thomp- son, brought back to Helena a photo- graph of Thompson standing in front of his “fort” with a high power rifle in his hand and a large revolver strapped around his waist. A large American flag flies from a pole nailed to the roof of the cabin, directly in the center of the right-of-way. The deputy said that when he and the sheriff approached the building, Thompson, who was then unarmed, raised the flag and advanced to meet them. = He offered no resistance but would not consent to accompany the officers to Plentywood unless they would agree to bring him back. He demanded credentials and would not accept a marshal's star as conclu- ——————_——_____ Those Nominated Up Until 11 o’Clock Last Night Are: Ethel Warwick Marjory Siske Arline Beech Helen Stevens Lucile C, Belky Emma C.
