SHORTAGE PREDICTED

DALLAS, Tex, April 12--Cattlc
raisers in Texas have been hard hit by
the lack of moisture in the past two
years and West Texas herds which
were not depleted by the drought have
been reduced by sales and by ship
ment to better ranges.
|. n. McCrary. interested in ranch
of l75 .000 acres near Post city, said
recently that there had not been u
good rain i'm his section since Febu-
airy IA. 1916. eff we don't get good
rain within thirty or forty days it is
hard to predict just what will become
of the cattlemen and their herds" he
said. For four years our range clear
ed better than 100000 season. Last
year we didn't make cent and it
will he the same this year
Hundreds of thousands Of cattle per
ished of thirst last summer
Those that were able to stand the trip
were sent to better ranges in New
Mexico. Oklahoma. Kansas and Col
oradO.
Cattle left on the Texas ranges dur
ing the winter suffered considerably
in the January and February biz
Yards, because of their poor physical
condition and cattlemcn say that hun
dreds of thousands of calves will be
lost this spring because of the cOndi
tion of the cows. Many ranchmen are
shipping their calves TO market ant
for the next two or three years there
probably will be marked shortage
of young Texas cattle.
West Texas banks have come tC
the aid of the cattlemen in loaninl
them money with which to buy feet
and also make shipments.

He said he had reduced the cattle oi
his ranch from herds valued at $1,000
900 to about 100000, but he eXpecte,
that with good rains and seasons th
| herds would be built up again.
