Wm. Smith passed through St, Johns last Monday, on his way from Silver City, N. M., to Gallup. He reports not a spear of grass from the Spur ranch south to Silver City, and predicts a lors of at least 75 per cent of the cattle ill that section this winter. As he puts it, tne cattlrmen, III the country over which he passed, will have to restock their ranges next spring. This may be a little exaggerated; but the fact is, that the outlook for cattle this winter, is worse, by far, than it has ever been.
