up the drouth situation in this man
Der:
when l first visited the state on
work In connection with the drouth
needs, l found nearly every one dis
t,lrbed. fearful and prOphesying moth

peared on the face Of things cause
for fear, though believed that If
the men Of Montana would make a
careful estimate Of the available pas-
turage and feed and not be frightened
into selling breeding stock they would
have no cause for experimenting dis

Mr.. Romnel stated that livestock

had been led to believe. and that. too.
