MONTANA LAMB CROP
SHOWS BIG INCREASE.
SECOND PLACE IN u. s.

Helena With 1,875,0OO lambs
docked this spring Montana exceeds
last years lamb crop by $4,000 head
and goes from third place to second
place among the important lamb pro-
duclng states, according to the annu-
al lamb report of the state-federal
crop reporting service. The Montana
1873 lamb crop exceeds that Of Wyo-
ming by 10000 head and that of Tex
as by 5000 head. California is still
the nations lamb producing state
with 1928 crop of 1887 900.
Lamb production in Montana in
creased tbs year as a result both of
a larger number of stock sheen as
well as the favorable weather condi-
tions at Landing time. The increase
however, was not as large as would
have occurred had not unfavorable
winter weather increased the percent
age of dry ewes. The 1923 crop on a
locked basis compares with 1856. 600
locked in 1927 and 1,788,000 locked
in 1926. AS percentage of breeding
ewes one year old and over at the be-
ginning of the year, the 1923 lamb
crop averaged so per cent compared
with 70 per cent in 1927 and sc per
cent in 1926. Numbers of breeding
ewes at the beginning of 1928 were
placed at 2,344,000 head compared
with 2,208,000 head at the beginning
of 1927 and 100000 head at the be-
ginning of 1926.
A considerable part of the 1928
Montana crop has been constructed as
feeders with quotations on mixed lots
on about an eleven cents basis while
eve lots have averaged about a cent
higher. These prices have compared
well with those of a year ago. Fol
lowing May dry weather grass was
slow and short in early June but
made a rapid response to the heavy
June rainfall. July weather was also
very favorable for grass so that sum-
mer range prospects are now about as
favorable as year ago.
ll% Larger Western Lamb CrOp
Montana sheepmen will face a larg-
er supply of late lambs from western
states for fall markets according to
the crop reporting service which an.
nOunces the western lamb crop for
1928 was 17,083,000 lambs compared
with 15,356,GOO locked in 1927 ard
16,243,0O0 III 1926. The seasons
lamb crops were larger than in 1927
in ali of the western states except in
New Mexico and in Colorado. About
22%o or 3,744,Q0 of the western lamb
crop were early lambs which have
been reported to have moved very
satisfactorily this year despite a gain
of about 100000 head in this class
over last year.
Total U, S. Lamb Crop go Larger
The 1928 crop Of native lambs was
but little larger than that of 1927 be-
ing estimated at 100000 compared
with $4,000 in 1927. This offsets
to some extent the increase in the
western states bringing the total 1923
crop of natives and westerns to 25,-
$4,000 head or eight per cent larger
than the total supply of 1927 and nine
per cent larger than that of 1926.

When the case opened for
trial Tuesday before Judge w. A.
O'Connor the first witness called
by the state was DR.. V. A. Smelk-
cr who examined the body of Miss

fatal accident. Death certificate
signed by Dr. Smeyker was Offer
ed as evidence.
The next witness was Naugle

night of July 20, the date Of the
wreck, and that when the car
turned over II miles north of
Nogales it was not going over
35 miles an hour and that Duffy
was driving at the time.
| Thomas M. Cummings, Nogales
police officer, was the next wit
ness and testified about going to
the scene of the wreck, finding
broken liquor bottles, and that the
car had skldded considerable
distance.
Otner witnesses called by the
state were George H. Smalley of
Tucson, Y. F. Swain, Tucson
newspaperman, and wife; and
Joaquin Yslas of the Nogales
Euick Mercer Company who
brought the wrecked car into Nog-
a4es. Smalley said he heard
Duffey tell Captain r. C. Wood
ruff, father of the death girl, that
he was Griving about 35 miles an
hour. Mrs. Swain told of the
girl dying in the Swain car while
being rushed to hospital in Nog-
ales. Mr.. Swain testified that
when he and his wife reached the
scene of the wreck they found
Duffey drunk, "but sober when
he got to town" Mrs. Swain
said that Thomas told her Duff
fey had been drinking but the
car not being his he did not in
sist on Duffey letting him drive.

boys drank two glasses of beer
across the line. On cross exam
iration he told how he and Duff
fey left the Woodruff home with
Sabra intending to go to the Blue
Moon dance hall and how they
tried to date up a Miss Young.
After failing to get Miss Young
as a member of their party they
drove around Tucson for awhile,
then set out for Nogales. After
arriving here Thomas said they
visited The Cave and The Log
Cabin and then started home.
Average speed to the scene Of
the accident was 35 miles an hour,
he stated. "We went faster
sometimes, and had to slow down
sometimes at curves" he testified.
"After the wreck, Duffey SEEM
ed to be unconscious, but was
able to walk down the road" he
said.
DR.. V. A. Smelker, testifying
for the defense, said that when
he saw Duffey and Thomas at the
mortuary they did not show any
evidence of intoxication. He stat
ed, on cross examination, that a |
shock will sober up man quick |,
ly, but shock wouldn't remove
the smell of liquor he replied to
attorney L. c. Hardy.
John w. Larimore, former
county engineer of Santa Cruz
County, and former city engineer
of Nogales, a witness for the de-
fense at the morning session of
