SHORTAGE OF CARS
DELAYS SHIPMENTS

Local sheep shippers are on the un-
easy, seat AT present owing to a short
age of cars, which is daily becoming
greater. They have been advised by
the railroad that DELAYS are certain in
obtaining cars for Immediate ship
ments and several trainloads of sheep
about to go to the middle west are
likely to be held up. The situation
will not affect small shippers to coast
markets so materially.
Smsthe Brothers, who ship exclu-
sively to Chicago, fear that. their next
trainload. due to leave August 27, will
not be sent forward until September
trainloads of sheep sent from the
trainloads of shep sent from the
northwest to the middle west in the
last few weeks that all available cars
are in that section and the railroads
which own the cars are diverting them
to their own roads to relieve short
ages in that section. Thus the north
west is being made the sufferer.
Pasture for the sheep in the county
is not causing half SO much trouble
as lack of water, the report is today
Large bands of sheep have been divid- |
ed in order to provide water for them |
in the few remaining springs in the |
mountains and the problem of water /
is a growing and serious one. Feed |
and their only hope is that they may |
find sufficient water to last until the
fall rains.
