Claiming that fully 100000
sheep have perished in Wyoming dur
ing the present winter, Patrick Healy
of Ogden returned from Buffalo,
Wyoming, yesterday where he has
lost l 5 per cent of his entire hold
ings through the continued cold snap
and lack of food supplies, He says
that his losses have been light as
compared to other sheepmen, who
will see their entire flocks wiped ont
before the winter is over. Men who
held as high as 10000 sheep last fall
have had their flocks reduced by half,
the greater portion of the losses oc-
curing during the severe December
storms which caught the sheepmen
off their guard and with little grain
or hay for an emergency. One sheep
man. who went to Europe In the fall,
leaving $4,000 sheep on the winter
ranges of Wyoming, has returned to
find himself comparatively a poor
man through the ravages of the
