Miles City Stock Growers Journal
Three DEGREES of q. S. Court at
Helena have recently been handed
down as follows: Tom Spellman
had already taken down his fences.
1t was therefore decreed that he
should pay the costs incurred. The
Briggs & Ellis company, a large
cattle concern, operating near Big
Timber, was ordered to take down
its fences and pay costs. John H.
Patterson consented that the United
States should take a decree against
him for costs and he agreed to take
down the fences.
Stock Growers Journal: While
the range cattle trade of 1901 has
been fairly renumerative, the pro-
misses Of 1902 for the northwest is
much better. This year there were
fewer rangers than usual, and the
extreme drought and crop devasta-
ton in the corn belt together with
the extra good conditions in the
northern range country inclined
northern range men TO hold back
their cattle rather than put them
on the market in competition with
the middle west, drought region
stuff, which was plunged on every
market from Kansas City to Chicago.
Not only this. but northwestern
cattlemen restocked their ranches
largely from the stricken districts Of
Kansas, Nebraska, Missouri and
Colorado, and thus there is a prob
ability of much larger shipments
from Montana next year than in
1901, providing the rowing bands of
sheep don't crowd these cattle feed
ers owe the line into Assiniboia
before then.
The Journal Stockman says: A
peculiar state of affairs exists in the
market for horses this winter,
"a condition never before witnessed
since the big market centers were
established years ago. A slack de-
mand and slow movement was an
ticipated ON account of short crops,
but no one looked for the utter COL
lapse of the business throughout the
country, as has been the case this
season, as far as public auction sales
are concerned. Various reasons are
assigned az the cause for the de-
preston, but it looks as if over pro-
duction or rather over crowding
eastern territory with the surplus
from the west had as much to do
with it as anything. For years hors-
es have been increasing on the
ranges in the west, ana when the
sudden demand arose two or three
years ago for war horses, prices ad-
vanced to a point where a good
profit could be gained in shipping
and a rush was made to the ranges
where vast numbers could be had at
first almost for the gathering. The
foreign demand stimulated domestic
trade, and farmers everywhere,
spectators, liverymen and others
jumped into the business, and the
result is now apparent throughout
the east. Vast numbers of horses
r now being held on expense that
formerly roamed the range and
rustled their own living. There
could be but one result-the west
is nov comparatively free Of sur
plus stock and the east is glutted
with horses of all ages and descrip-
tons.
