STOCK LOSSES
ON RANGES

Figures compiled by the United
States forest service. upon which to
base resume OF the live stock losses
on the acreage Of the forest lands in
the lntcrmountain district of which
Nevada is part, attest to the efficacy
of measures invoked by the biologi-
cal survey and other agencies in the
governments war on predatory ami
mails showing reduction in the loss
Of cattle from this cause i'll 1919 as
compared to 1918 of more than fifty
per cent and all approximate reduc-
ton of twenty-five per cent in the
loss OF sheep
The statement says, however: But
in spite of this. predatory animals
still constitute one of the worst
enemies of the Intermounatin live
stock industry
The greatest single cause OF loss
was poisonous vegetation, notably
larkspur Eradication of this plant
on the scale contemplated by the gov
eminent proved impossible last sea-
son partly for lack Of men to super
wise the work, partly because OF the
scarcity and high cost OF labor pre-
venting the stockmen from cooperat-
ing extensively. However. this dan
gerous plant was removed from an
area of 1867 acres, total of $3.50
acres grubbed since the work began
at a cost of $3.50 per acre. At $5C
per animal, It is estimated that this
has resulted in saving $4,000 annual
Nv on a basis of average previous
death loss.
Disease among sheep, which cen
tered in the Humboldt forest of this
state, killed 1884 sheep, almost twice
as many as the records show having
died from this cause in 1918. All but
1914 OF the total died on the Humboldt
forest lands There was a decrease.
however. in the cattle and horse loss
of 40 dead. the 1910 reports show
ing 254 cattle and five horses dead
from disease.
Predatory animals destroyed llS
cattle. five horses and l6.l54 sheep III
the Intermountain forests i'll 1919. In
1918, total Of 270 cattle, three horses
and 2l.Sl3 sheep were reported VIC
tins of coyotes, bear, wolves and
mountain lions.
