pressed by those who attended the

count of the Crook county men being
out down, Wasco county with about
eight townships in the reserve gats
approximately 150,000 head ot sheep
in the reserve while Crook with about
28 townships gets 60,000 head. One
of tlie Wasco men who scattered scab
through this county last year gets an
increase of 100 per cent while one of
our large sheep men gets left out en
tirely, This means only 150,000 head
of foreign sheep running over Crook
county for not less than two months
and destroying grass that is Heeded
for our own stock. If we can't get
an equal show with outsiders We can
at least close the reserve against sheep
altogether,
