Hon. F. d. Wright. OF Denver. Col. was
Interested in cattle and sheep in New Mex
leo. He SAYS the number of cattle in
Northern New Mexico is very short com
pared with a while back. Ten years ago
he says, the Northern New Mexico Cattle
Raisers Association reported for assess
mrnt "S.t" cattle, while now there are
only two o. three bands OF consequence
left. Sheep. however. he says, are incraas-
ing and are paying well. He has S0.OJ on
his ranch and they bring him in more than
as MANY dollars every Year
