Since the arrival Of Spring the
sheepmen have been able to count
their flocks. They find, OF at least
some Of them do. that their loss is
nearly double what they thought 1t
was. The loss in some Of the largest
flocks will amount to nearly twenty
five per cent. and from that down
to fifteen per cent. Taking it al
together when the number of sheep
owned in Carbon cunty is considered,
and the loss will run up into the
thousands. The hard winter and
scarcity of feed to start in on is the
cause. Some of the largest owners
talk about cutting their flocks down
and not running so many hereafter.

Of no value if it goes through glass.
BY these two measures the per

not even greater was due to the fail
ure Of a certain number of mothers

Inmates Of Government forestry ex-

this cutting have been received by
the Government. Uncle Sam, how
ever, takes the position, that under
proper regulation there need be no
real useless waste. Experts point
out that all Christmas trees cut
down would cover about 5000 acres
The lumber industry cuts 1000
times as much annually and forest
fi~es devastate about 10000, 600
acres every year.
If the trees are cut iudiciously it
results in an actual benefit to the
forests, forestry officials declare.
