( the Haslaaaa al Hala Ui Suri. The question i often asked: What will be the outcome of thin seemingly frueless strife between t he ont t ln-rneu am! the kheepiiitii? The eastern man believes t-hiip rearing will ever, t tial'!y be given over to the farmers, It-uvir,? the cattle to roam the unlorattd public domain. The ii'.ea 'oes not prevail in the plateau regions of the west, writtn t'apt. James 11. McClintock, in Ain lee's. Where there are sherp the cat- t!" iuut cepart. Shetp may exist in propinquity with cattle, but the re verse is not possible. As before told, cattie are stationary, while sheep are iHcer.irilv nomac.ic. Mhtn feed is ihortthe sheepman move his flock to grass. The cattle owner, with hi wilt anci kcntterec property, may r.ot Co thiu. He thrives or he "goes broke" in a einirle locality. The cattleman i handicapped nt every point of the .struggle. His crop mature more slow ly. To peciire the best results he must wait three or fouryears till his product is ripened bv age. Jn not over one year out of four will cattle accumulate auy respectable amount of fat on the west ern ranges. The price of the product depend much on the condition of the corn market, for range beef rarely if ever goes to the block direct. A single dry season means alto no fat or growth for cattle, and means also no increase for the succeeding year. The tales of cattle barons and of enormous profits jn the cattle business- belong to the early days, when the plains were cov ered with knee-d?ep grass, with water in every gullv. At present there is more money in the fattening of steers than there is in the rearing of the in on the range. I'nder favorable condi tions there i money in the cattle bus'inet.. but favorable conditions are rarely present. , The plateau region is now in its fourth successive year o drought. Thus it comes that the cat tlrman is no longer so determined to defend the heath he very reasonably holds his own. llie sheep owner, to begin with, i at considerable expense, for he has Jo maintain a man with every 2,ui:) head of his woollies. Hut he shears once or twice a year, and at the present prices for wool an average half-bred merino will bring- him annually from that pource alone $1.20. The increase of his flocks is fully 40 "per cent, per annum He need not wait severnl years, like his enemy, the cattlemnn, for entrance to market. His wethers at the pre ent rates bring him $3.50 lean, amative tlolkirs when in good condition, but spring lambs, four months old, are rated in the eastern markets at even a greater price per head than is paid for matured muttons. It is- a business of quick returns and ample profits. To be sure, a change in tariff would mark edly influence the wool quotations but yvere the value of the wool almost to be destroyed, the sheepmen would still be on an equality with the cattle baron. The tendency is emphatically toward the rearing or cattie in com pounds, such as are found on the great Maxwell grant of northern New Mex ico, while the sout.hwest ranges are be ing given over, to the sheep. A few thousand head are annually fattened for exceptionally choice mutton on the alfaJfa pastures of Arizona and south central California, but the owners pre fer the lush spring grasses of the plains. The result is the same and the cos-t U far less. It cannot be denied that the life of the sheep owner is- far from a -happy ne. He is damned and persecuted on every side, am'i eve n the I'nited States government takes a hand in the perse cution. The main trouble is with the forestry division of the interior depart nitnt. It is generally conceded that sheep have an injurious efftct on the western water supply. Of course, rain falls upon the sheep as upon the just and unjust but the forestry expert generally insists, (a) That sheep eat out al! uficlerbruth and even young trees, destroying the natural checks to too rapid evaporation, the conserv ators of the snowfall, and even threat ening the future of the forests, de prived of their young growt h; (l) that sheep pack the soil and clear away the grasses, thereby creating coni'ilt ir.ns that deprive the soil of porosity anil render the run-off too rapid for the public weal; (c) that sheep herders, with their campfires. are a perpetual .menace to the forests and are a pro lific caue of destructive fires-. Sheep owners deny these allegations specifi cally am! entirely, yet the ideas are ad hered to by the men who lead scientific thought in this rirtction. Kven now n commission of eminent scientific ex perts is pnkinir around in the moun tains of Colorado. New- Mexico am". Arizona, attempting to get at the truth of t he matter. The sheepmen's as ociations are welcoming them with ef fusion, am) have coin rihuted libenillv toward their ud education. prnptT entertainment aoalil Haw Waited l.oaavr.
