NUT TON IS LOW;
SHEEP PNEN BLUE
Ranges Are -P0or, Prices Are
Down and Owners Are i'm
Quandary.
FL0CKS ARE BEING CUT
DOWN To MINIMUM
Shortage of Wool Next Year.
With Better Prices. Is the
Outlook.

With the price of mutton low, tho
ranges the poorest In the last fifteen
years, end prospects for hard winter,
sheepmen OF Utah, Idaho. Wyoming and
Montana are facing probably the most
serious set OF questions in history. In
able to get hay in many parts of the
state, herds being taken to other
districts for feeding during the winter
months and the sheepmen are trying to
cut the herds down to the smallest size.
1t is seid by L. Fl. Callister, president
OF the Utah Woolgrowers' association,
that the herds In Utah have been cut
down nearly one-third already this fall
and the sheepmen. arc getting rid OF as
many OF the sheep as possible by selling
TO the eastern markets and TO other
sheepmen, who are willing to face the
bad conditions during the winter.
The manner OF cutting down the nocks
is by selecting the wethers and all sheep
which are aged and not sturdy The
hardy sheep are being kept because they
are better able to face the conditions and
live on saSebrush and other poor foods.
The other sheep are going to the mar
ket as rapidly as possible, with the re-
suit that big drops in the price of mutton
arc expected In the near future
Demand Is Light.
Some sheepmen say they are unable
cause OF tho great supply and the linn
tied demand. The rush Of the sheep TO
the market has been no greater from
Utah than from other adjoining states
and the result is that it is now hard
to sell mutton at anything like fair
prices.
IL is predicted by sheepmen that the
conditions Will mean shortage of wool
next spring and much better prices.
With the number OF western sheep cut
down third there will be millions of
pounds less wool produced and prices
should be better.
The ranges are poor this year because
OF The drought OF last summer and the
early fall. The late summer and early
fall rains usually bring forth good
growth of grass on the ranges. but this
year the rains failed 10 come and the
sheepmen find grass on the winter
ranges. 1t will be necessary TO feed the
sheep hay and grain. and the prices of
both these commodities are said 10 be
going up. Hay in many parts OF the
state cannot be secured at any price.
All around, the sheepmen declare the
conditions at present 10 be worse than
for many years back.

WORK BEGINS ON
BIG POWER PLANT
Being Built Near Uintah in
Weber Canyon for Canal
Company.

Construction has comr- enced near

Canal company, byrH. A, Strauss, vice
president and chief engineer of the Fal-

OF Chicago.
Mr. Strauss designed and supervised
The construction of the electrification
system of the Salt Lake s. Ogden rail
road, and is also r consulting engineer
for a number of other public utilities
corporations in this state.
The new plant, which VIII cost at
least $500.0O0. will have au ultimate
capacity of $4,000. horsepower. The ini-
iial capacity viii be horsepower
The company for which it is being con.
structed is one of the oldest and most
prosperous irrigation companies in the
state and is now iTriguting about 10000
acres in Davis and Weber counties.
The main canal is ten miles in length
and has recently been concreted for It's
entire length. Az a point about five
miles this side Of the headgates, near
200 feet from the canal to the Weber
river in the valley below.
This constitutes an almost ideal con-
ditiop for hydro-electric development
because the entire head from the canal
in the hills to the river below can be
developed within length of less than
800 feet.
The water will be carried down the
hillside in steel penstocks to concrete
and steel power station building, de-
signed ultimately 10 develop $4,000
horsepower IN water wheel driven cleo
trio generators. The present installa-
tion will be limited, however, to about
5000 horsepower.
Reaction type turbines will drive
three phase 2300-volt alternating current
generators and the power so generated
will be "stepped up' to $4,000 volts
for transmission throughout the state.
Mr., Strauss has been engaged on the
work for several months with i corps of
surveyors in the field. Actual work of
construction was commenced yesterday
or the hydraulic forcbay. II is. planned
to have the plant in commission within
one year.
