SHEEP RAIs1NG.-An important branch of Montana
agriculture is sheep raising and wool growing. This
industry dates its beginning from the fall of 1876, when
the first focks were brought from Oregon and Cali
forna BY udicious crossing with Mcrino and Cots
wool bucks, grade of sheep has been produced which
grows wool of fair length and of texture and
quality which is highly priced by manufacturers, being
of that particular kind most satisfactory for atmxturc
with fine woods in making considerable variety of
fabrics, desirable to the trades and mutton sheep
their standing rather cxces, being preferable in the
Chicago market to other western raised sheep. The
mutton wcthcrs as they sent out fresh from our
ranges, weigh from 100 to 10 pounds dressed, and
compare favorably with the best mutton seen in the
markets of this country. There now including
last springs lambs, not less than 1898 OOO sheep the
territory, worth $3O6OOOO, and their wool product at
springs shcaring will be fully 100000 pounds
This large number of sheep is owned by less than $50
persons firms, of them having many
f'ocks of 1900 sheep cach When it is borne in mind
that of the $3OOOOO received for wool annually, from
onc-half to scven-eghts of that sum is paid out in
caring for the sheep and making improvements of sheep
ranches, idea of the magnitude of the industry is
gained which is worthy of rejecting upon.
HoRsEGRow1NG. No branch of business has made
such rapid strides towards greatness has the horse
growing industry of Montana within the past decade.
In point of superiority horses stand ahead Of the
territories and equal to those Of the leading horse
growing states. In round numbers there 100000
horses in Montana, and their market value is fully
$S,l5OOOO. The introduction of the best blood of the
continent with the establishment of few of
breeding farms, and the yearly incoming of sres of the
best type from the foremost breeding districts in the
Union, and from France and England, has gone until
there is scarcely herd that does not boast of its
celebrities, while of them number their choice
