A clever trick to gain control OF

Sweetwater Range association was
attempted here yesterday. but failed
when the matter was called TO the
attention OF the state board OF sheep
commissioners Local fiockmasters
had imported munger of bucks from
Idaho, and in accordance with the
law were to be quarantined. The own
ers requested that the quarantine
ground be in the lease OF the associa-
ton, and the inspector, not knowing
that this would work a hardship on
members OF the association, placed the
quarantine and issued a trailing per-
nit for the bucks to go from the yards
to the quarantine ground. The resi-
dent sheepmen protested to the board
by wire, and the bucks were quarantine
ed elsewhere,
This trick is frequently attempted,
and has worked many times, for when
once quarantined, the range cannot be
used by outside sheep, unless they too
go into quarantine, and as a rule, flock
masters give quarantined ground a
wide berth.
