fornia, had rather unusual expert
ence. when he started for Wyoming
couple Of weeks ago. The two extreme
weather conditions rather got F'red's
Grove gentlemen Fred started on a
tour ,,Of inspection of the property In
Wyoming owned by himself and the Ida
Grove associates. On reaching Denver
the party was held UP for four days on
account OF the severe snOWstorm. From
the Ida Grove Pioneer we clip the fol.
lowing account Of the, trip:
"A number of Ida county men gat a
s.,close- up''l view last week of big,west.
ern blizzard which swept oyer NebrasI
ka, 4 Wyoming and Colorado Saturday,
April 18th. "A party of about ten men,
including E. G. Bowman, Ed Meents, A..
C. Johnston, C. r. McCutchen of Ida
Grove; j. 8. Crawford, Ed Campbell
and j. F.. Christiansan, of Battle Creek;
VIM. Jensen and C. E. Conn, of Sioux
City, and Fred FRANKIE, of Denison, plan
ned to visit the oil holdings near Cas-
per. where the local parties are making
a big development in paying sands.
Mr. Bowman went first and reached
Casper on Friday, just as the big storm
broke. AS Casper is about a mile high,
as to altitude, it escaped the heaviest
snow and severest winds and on Sat
urday had about foot of snow on Its
streets and greater depths, in drifts, but
not enough to stop traffic. In the low.
er valleys, however, Mr.. Bowman said
that the conditions were very bad and
the snow piled several feet deep on the
level.
In these place large number of
sheep had been sent out to Craze as hay
and forage have been very scarce all
winter, owing to the abnormal drought
last summer and fall. The grass was
making a nice start and grazing was
unusually good for this time of the
year. Great focks Of sheep We're thus
out in the exposed places, were caught
In the storm and drifted with the wind
until they froze or else fell into gullies
and draws. Lambing had started in
some instances and every young ami.
NAL perished, Of course. The losses
among the eastern Wyoming sheepmen
were thus abnormally large. Mr.. Bow
man noted an instance where one man
had lost $4,000 worth in this manner
Mr.. Meents and Mr.. FRANKIE were laid
up in Denver four days by the storm
snowfall in that city being three to four
feet deep and traffic paralyzed. Mr.
Johnston came to Cheyenne from the
west and being unable to meet his par
ty after several days waiting, went
back to California The other members
Of the party got as far as Lusk, Wyo.
in the very heart of the blizzard area
where they were marooned three days
the railroad trains in that locality be
ing all showed in. From Lusk eastware
into the sandhills country the loss te
cattle men was nearly as great proper
tionately as to the sheepmen.
