Pueblo Coll Review: In stormy wealth
or cattlemen do not feel the most jubilant,
and indeed no one not even the '59er, can
say how long each new storm will last or
how deep the snow will be when it clears
up. The less experienced are always
ready with the prOphesy that the cattle
men will be entirely bankrupted by this
storm" So it has been in years past, but
in spring time the boys have come up
from their round-ups with the usual tally
lists. We mean to say, not that these
heavy snow storms do no harm; but that
the tendency is to exaggerate the damage.
That great losses have occurred, there can
be no doubt, but that the losses are gen
eral is yet TO be ascertained. Losses so
far as known have been among divide
cattle which drifted from their home
ranges and we're stopped by the river or
wire fences. Even among these the losses
are largely of Texans brought up last
season. Reports would indicate that the
effects of the storm have reached over one
hundred miles into Kansss. The pre-
sumption is that outside of belt of two
hundred miles, partly in Kansas and
partly in eastern Colorado, and for about
the same distance north and south, the
losses have not been unusual.
