show that Germany's approximate

lion. In addition, Germany faces the
necessity henceforth of filling the gaps
in her various armies with seventeen

who have recovered their health.

However, the figures also show that
the German armies with their now de-

posing these are the French armies,
who, despite the belief of the German
General Staff that they have been bled

Cattle Raisers Hard Hit

Clovis, NM, May %. Accord
ing to stoekmen of the plains,
country of the Texas Panhandle
and the great cattle regions of
eastern New Mexico, at no time
during the past fifteen or twent-
ty years have the great cattle
raising districts of the south
west been so hard hit by drouthy
conditions as they are now.

the Midland country. thence
west to FL Paso and north TAX
ing in the regions adjacent to
Roswell, N, NJ, and the Pecos
Valley and still further north,
enveloping the plains country Of
EASTERN New Mexico from Clovis
to Clayton, is a vast area of the
great cattle raising district of
the southwest that is suffering
as it never suffered before. Hun
dreds of thousands of cattle are
confronting the ranchers with
the most perplexing feed situa-
ton they've ever had to contend
with. With no rain to amount to
anything since last September,
and literally no grass in this
region, ranchers are beginning to
contract grass and in Kansas and
Missouri to protect their vast
herds that are already emaciated
to the point where shipment is
hazardous. Over the various rail-
roads that traverse the south
west, trainload after trainload of
cattle are moving to eastern
pastures there to be finished for
market or to be held until their
home ranges will warrant bring
ing them back.
Cattle raisers state present con-
ditions are unprecedented and
that unless relieved very soon a
very serious circumstance will
confront the stock industry OF
the southwest. Throughout the
aforementioned region the bic
ranchers are still feeding cake in
order TO maintain shipping
strength in their herds and tC
tide them over till the much
needed rain materializes.
