CATTLE AND SHEEP
IN GOOD CONDITION
Favorable Weather Conditions
During March Help, Pre-
cipitation Is Needed

Whilo weather conditions DURING
March were favorable to livestock
cattle and sheep did not show any
! change in condition during the month
according to the April / range and
livestock report issued by the federal
agricultural statistician's office at
Fargo.
No severe storms were experienced
temperatures were above normal and
precipitation was below normal dur
ing the month. General precipitation
the first part OF April did much to
brighten the outlook for pastures and
crop. Stockmen are of the opinion
that there is sufficient moisture in the
ground to start grass growth.
Calf and lamb crop prospects are
very favorable at present, "A per cent
of stockmen reporting being Of the
belief that the crop for both will be
normal or above. Cattle and sheep
losses have been less than normal,
Some growers, however, have expert
enced losses greater than normal, due,
perhaps, to the poor quality of hay
end straw which the stock has been
forced to consume.
Feed and forage crops are quite
generally exhausted over much OF the
state, except IN a relatively small area
in the Red River valley. Reports in
dicate there will be no carry-over Of
hay or grain feed in most of the state
Hay has been and is being shipped in
from outside the state or shifted from
surplus areas which have been re-
duced to local need In most. cases.
Additional demands for hay will have
to be supplied from sources outside
the state.
Range conditions are about the
same as a month ago. Range feed,
however, is very short, due to the ex-
tremely droughty condition that pre-
vailed last summer and fall. Much
precipitation is needed to replenish
the soil moisture and insure good grass
growth and ample stock water.
Some early lambs have been report
ed IN the state, the report says, though |
1ambing will not become general until |
the latter part Of April or early in |
May. Sheep look we'll and are in
good health, though some are thin,
as IN most cases they are now get
ting their entire substance from de-
pleted range pasture.

ers still persist In such offenses
Every such offense tends to increase

All the laws ever enacted in the

the future will be Of no avail and the
wretched conditions we have had can
only slightly improve unless drivers of
motor vehicles observe every law and
regulation. The driver should feel
his responsibility towards the good
order Of traffic.
Since I have occupied the office
there has not been an accident
brought to my attention caused by
motor vehicle except where at least
one Of the drivers broke some provi-
sion Of our traffic ordinances. New
ordinances and their enforcement will
not alone improve conditions.
Our traffic ordinances have been
enacted after much study and care
full consideration Of our board of city
commissioners. Unless drivers CO.
operate. present conditions will con- !
tinue. II every one will obey our traf- |
fic ordinances I feel safe in saying |
that no serious accidents. in fact no
injury or damage to persons or prop |
erty will occur. In Bismarck, at least !
