THE RANGE CATTLE.
Great Suffering Is Being Caused BY
the Lack of Water.

Belle Fourche, S. D., March 9.-Con-
ditions among range cattle in this re-
gion are almost beyond belief Not
since 1886 has there been so much
suffering, and if March continues with
any severity the percentage of loss
will equal that of the memorable win
ter of II years ago. The greatest suf-
!fering has been caused by the lack of
water The animals spent hours at
time along the water courses and va
.riOus pools vainly licking the ice in
frantic endeavor to relieve their parch-
ed bodies. Places are frequently
found where the ice is drenched with
the blood Of the animals from their
llacerated tongues. Every day is ad.
ding its quota to the number of car.
casses over the plains and it is i'm
possible to form any estimate of the
probable loss.

Anything less will turn them in,

overworks and weakens the interior
muscles close to the nasal cavity.

strained, are strong, and hence cause
