A Bismarck special says the heavy
transforms in North Dakota have
wrought fearful havoc among the sheep
r%anchers, and thousands of young
lambs have died from exposure. Da-
kota farmers will find that it requires
experience to succeed in the sheep bust
ness. There should be no Exposure"
for young lambs. Montana wool
growers have found that they must
provide warm sheds and make the
most careful preparation for the lamb
ing season. The altitude is not so
great in Dakota and the rain storms
are hardly as cold as in Montana, yet
there will be no losses worth mention
ing in this state. Sheep raising is not
a wide open business, and Dakota
farmers will find less money in wool
growing than in raising wheat unless
they provide the best of shelter for
their focks. The industry cannot be
neglected
