SHEEP FORM TIE THIRD

That the sheep industry in Nevada

average was struck, says the Ga
zette.
Although the tax commission found
less than 100000 sheep in Nevada
there are other sources of informa,
tion which fix the number at 1,499,,

more neary approach the correct
numb ar for il is Of record that an
nualy there are $4,000 slaughtered

has been $13.25 per 100 pounds, al

for as high as II cents The tota
amount received fer wool was in tht
