and variety Of topics considered. Nor are these
devoid of interest and importance. There are
no surprises nor sensations hut there are many
gratifying reports, and more than one sugges
ton which will be heartily commended to the
sound judgment OF the Nation. According TO
the ominous Vaccinations OF some, the Message

Pleasant Weather Has Given Impe-
tus to Shipments.
PROTESTS OF SHIPPERS
CENsURE THE RAILROADS FOR
CAR SHORTAGE.
snowstorm and Cold Winds Caused
Much Suffering Among Sheep
Awaiting Shipment to Market
Business at Union Stockyards Du-
ring the Past Week.

Severe snowstorns and cold winds in
belt have caused considerable suffering
among the sheep awaiting shipment to
the eastern and southern markets. The
breeders are UP in arms and directing
a large amount or adverse criticism
against the railroad corporations for
permitting a scarcity of livestock cars
at the time when they are most needed.
Thousands of sheep have been confined
in the pens and grown poor while
awaiting the pleasure of the railroad
companies. en1aiIing considerable loss
financially to the breeders. They claim
that the conditions have prevailed for
years, and each succeeding season 1t
grows worse, the number of new cars
added to the railroad equipment falling
far below the proportionate increase of
livestock. The pleasant weather or the
past few days has given a new impetus
TO the shipments. Following were Union
Stockyards shipments:
T. d. Ryan had a car OF fat calves
and a car of hogs from Cache valley
weighed to Knight & Co.. wholesale
slaughterers.
