RANGE CONDITIONS IN II WESTERN RANGE
STATES INDICATE CONDITIONS BELOW 1924
Range Conditions Bad In South Due Drouh Resulting In
Heavy Cattle Observation-Disclosures in Splendid Shape
AS Usual.

Range conditions improved in all of
the range states except Texas, New
Mexico and Arizona, where the con-
tinued lack Of moisture has reduced
the supply of range feed. In Mon
tana, Wyoming, Colorado and West
ern sections of Nebraska, Kansas and
the Dakotas the ranges opened up by
the melting snow which gave addi-
tional feed; these states have good
ranges and a generally good supply
of hay and other feed. In the Inter
mountain region there is some short
age of old feed following dry condi-
tons last year, but now feed is start
ing in good shape, and with warm
weather, range conditions are much
better than a year ago. California
has promising range prospects except
/ in the southern part where there is a
shortage of moisture. The condition
of ranges is 70 per cent compared
with n per cent last month and rs
per cent one year ago.
Favorable weather conditions dur
ing February resulted in an improve
ment in range cattle in Montana, Wy
oming, South Dakota, Nebraska, Kan

/ states have wintered unusually we'll
/ In Colorado, Texas and New Mexico
/ CATTLE held about the same condition
during the month due to short range
and heavy feeding. West of the Cont
mental Divide cattle generally i'm
proved under mild weather and the

new feed: cattle in this region are moi
up to their usual condition following
dry conditions last fall. In Arizona
cattle still continue to decline due tt
drought conditions. Cattle losses have

and southern parts of Nevada anC

The month Of February was gener

teen met their deaths when a school
