tination on passenger train time even
II higher freight rate Is charged for

The attention OF the trIffic managers
was called to the fact that sheep and
other kinds OF livestock are now suf-
fcrlng for food. the ranges being COM
pletely covered with snow and have
fall OF snow visited all parts of the
state. This storm was followed by
others In rapid succession, the livestock
having no chance to get down to grass,
and as the snow was piled high every
where owners in some instances have
been unable to haul hay to the
marooned flocks. Others had no hay
to haul, and rush orders were sent to
Nebraska and surrounding states for
hay and corn, and 1t Is this feed that
the Wyoming Wool Growers associa-
tion would have the railroads hurry
to destination with all possible haste
In order that. should the present severe
weather continue. some OF the focks
may be saved.

operate In every way possible in the
efforts of the foclImasters to save their
