: A letter received here Tuesday ev-
enlng from ]. M. Croft says that there
;. is an abundance of snow on the ground
in the vicinity of Stanford, no bare
:. range and that feeding of all the sheep
is required. Sheep are in good con
dition and very little loss so far. This

plenty of green grass and the feeding
of the flocks at this season will serve
II to strengthen them for the lambint
and green grass seasons.
