Oregon Lamb Crop In 1945 Smallest PORTLAND, Aug. 11 (UP) Oregon's 1945 lamb crop is esti mated to be the smallest of rets ord sihc6 estimates were started in 1924, a department of agricul ture report said today. The smaller crop is laid to a reduction in the number of breed ing ewes on hand. The current lamb crop is 12 percent below that of 1944 and 39 percent below 10-ycar average. Range feed conditions were rb ported as below average during the fall and winter months but death losses, were held to a min imum duo to mild weather In the lambirtg period. Death losses froni predatory animals have been gen erally less. Sheepmen pointed out various Unfavorable factors. Beginning in 1931, slock sheep were reduced 40 percent over hn i 1-year period and there has been further re-, duction from 1942 to 1945. In ad dition, sheepmen have held a minimum number of replacement ewe lambs in recent years with the result that the average age of breeding ewes has Increased. Other factors mentioned as re sponsible for the deereol are high production costs.
