100000 SHEEP were
SHIPPED into STATE
DURING 1880 SEASON
Receipts OF WOOL Bearing AMI
mails Were 215 per Cent
Of Those in 1929

During the late summer and fall Of
1880 there was a considerable move
ment Of sheep and lambs from other
states into North Dakota, according
to reports received at the federal
statistician's office at Grand Forks.
This office gathered the information
through the helpful assistance Of the
county agents, state livestock sanitary
board, the state agricultural college,
the various railroads. and personal
interviews with men who are In touch
with livestock interests Of the state.
A summary Of the information re-
ceived indicates that in 1880 the ship
lncnts Of sheep and lambs into North
Dakota totaled approximately 140. 900
as compared with $1,000 head In 1929,
or 215 per cent Of the 1899 receipts.
The disposition Of the sheep re-
ceived last fall is estimated to be as
follows: $4,000 head will be retained
forsgrazing through the winter and
possibly through the coming summer:
IS 1000 head will be sent to market;
and the remainder will be retained
for breeding and additional mar.
ketings. The sheep shipped in
were also classified as to sex. Of
which mature ewes represent 28.9 per
cent of all sheep shipped in, or about
10000 head, while 40.l per cent are eve
lambs, or $4,000 head, and $40 per
cent, or .44,000 head, are wethers.
The sheep shipped in in 1929 were
disposed Of, according to estimates, as
follows: 69.1 per cent, or about As 900
head, were used as breeders; az per
cent or about 1000 head, were held
for grazing; and 28.8 per cent, or 49,
600 were shipped to market. The
number held as breeders in 1880 shows
q marked decrease as compared with
the 1929 numbers. In comparing the
inshipments Of sheep carrying the
privilege Of feeding in transit" with
the intentions to market, there Is q
very close relationship, as 58.5 per
cent of all sheep shipped in are being
fed In transit while the estimate in.
dicates that 60.6 will 60 to market.
A comparison Of the revised esti-
mates of wool production In 1929
and 1880, made by the Division
Of Crop and Livestock Esti-
mates at Washington, indicates that
the United States clipped S10,56l 900
pounds of wool in 1929 and 1896, 007 900
pounds in 1890, an increase Of 81 per
cent. To these clips must be added
$4,000, 900 pounds Of pulled wool in
1929 and 81, 900,0 900 pounds in 1880, or
a total production Of 365, 06l 900
pounds of wool in 1929 and 397, 100000
pounds in 1880, or an increase Of all
wool over 1929 of 90 per cent. The
large increase Is accounted for IN
part by the increased numbers Of
sheep shorn on the farms and In part
by heavier fleeces.
Pulled wool is the wool that Is re-
moved from the peltS OF sheep that
have died or have been slaughtered.
