Managing Farm and Ranch
What Factors Determine Future
OF Western Sheep Production?
BY MONT H. SANDERSON

REQUIRE
to the production by growers of
uniformly high-quality product. 1t is
my belief that this, coupled with bet
ter merchandising of the product, can
expand the markets for lamb meat
considerably.
On the adverse side of the picture.
western sheep ranching costs are at
an all-time high, the kinds of labor
needed are hard to find, and probably
there has not been the kind of pro-
gress in sheep ranch organizational
economy and operational efficiency that
there could be. 1t takes high lamb
production to stay in business with the
present operating costs, and there are
those ranches that have not yet mod
ernized to the extent possible for the
best combination of economical and
good quality output Of lamb and wool.
Natural Suitability
In any consideration by ranch or
farm operator of shift from cattle
to sheep, one of the important things
to look at in the question of the
natural suitability of the ranch or the
farm for one or the other kind of
animal. Some rangelands are definite
ly better for one or the other. Evil
dence of this is the fact that the us.
Forest Service, in changing the use
of summer range from one kind of
animal to the other, may make the
conversion on a ratio of anywhere from
81 up to 81.
Another quite important natural fac
tor is the kind of hay that can be pro-
duced efficiently. Most of the native
hay produced in the high mountain
valleys of western Montana is better
cattle hay than it is sheep hay. Al
falfa hay is the best sheep hay, espe-
cially for early lambing. Sheep by
nature are more of q winter-ranging
animal than are cattle. Sheep get
FESTIVE and don't do too we'll when
penned up in hay feeding lot through
long winter. Sheep make better use
of weedy and brushy ranges; cattle do
best on good grass ranges, especially
ranges with some of the coarSer
grasses.
Between the extremes in the natural
suitability of the ranch or the farm
for cattle or sheep, there are those
ranches and farms that do have good
"convertability'' from one kind of
animal to the other There are in fact
those range situations where the COM
bination of range forage between the
grasses, the weeds and the browse is
such that periodic shift from cattle
to sheep and back to cattle is both
good range management and good
economies.
Plan Needed
Such ranches need to plan for the
best and most economical changes in
the ranch improvements and equip
ment, for such periodic shifting. But,
the important thing with such ranches
is that this kind of shifting is a man.
agement matter, not matter of specu-
lative changes.
We can, I believe, say that the ranch
or farm with good natural suitability
for cattle or for sheep should remain
in that type of production, and that
the ranches or farms with good natural
suitability for sheep that have in re-
cent years shifted to cattle should re-
convert to sheep. The extent to which
the ranches that haun rnacnnahl,1 onnd

LIN LACl NUN II y SO1d1liAlS PctoS
trends in Montana and western sheep
numbers and production were dis
cussed. It was shown that there has,
during the past so years, been an IN
terrelated cyclical upswing and down.
swing in western sheep and cattle num-
bers. Ranches have tended to Shift
from sheep to cattle when the animal
unit profit is higher from cattle ranch
ing, and then to shift the other way
when the cycle turns.
The result has been speculative in
stability and losses ard considerable
ranch operational cost in the CONVEX
sion from cattle to sheep, and vice
versa. We now stand at the turning
point or what would by past ex-
perience be turning point = in the
interrelated cyclical shift. Cattle num-
bers are at the peak, sheep numbers
are at or near an all-time low and the
present unit net profit is considerably
better for sheep ranching than for
cattle ranching.
The natural and logical question now
is: What happens now? Do we repeat
the history of the past, or might there
be some new economic factors that
may considerably change the pattern
of the past so years? There are those
who believe that there now are such
new economic influences in the western
ranching picture that not in the fore
seeable future will we see a resump-
ton of full-scale western range sheep
| production
Market Changes
Those who hold this view point to
the developments in the synthetic fl
bres and the decline in the use of wool,
percentagewise, in our national uses of
textile fibres. They point out that
western cattle growers now have far
better market to the western states,
especially the Pacific states, than in
the past, and they say that this favor
able aspect of western cattle produc-
ton, compared with sheep production,
is due to become even more favorable.
They say that lamb meat is losing its
former place in the competition for the
consumers expenditures for beef lamb
pork and poultry. They question wheth-
er the western range sheep industry is
able to reorganize for better and more
economical and efficient production of
a better and more salable product in
lamb meat.
All of these questions should be
thoughtfully considered by the stock
ranch or stock farm operator who
can convert his production from cattle
to sheep and who is considering such
a change. Let's try to weigh the plus
and minus factors in the situation. as
far as foreseeable.
Wool Demand
On the plus side Of the picture. it
now appears reasonably certain that
there will, for quite some time. be a
basic demand for wool as a textile
fibre. 1t may not hold its place. rela.
lively, in the total volume of textile
fibre use, but it will be needed, and
our growing population will be i'm.
portant in holding up the demand fol
wool.
AS for the market and demand fo,
lamb meat, it must of course be rec
ognized that such meat consumptior
has always been small part of oul
total, and that the demand has beer
localized. geographicallv to o,,ito :

Seaford, Lewes File
Complaint Suits
Seek Judgment In Declaring Their
Property Is Tax Exempt

The City of Seaford and tbs
Lewes town commissioners have
each filed separate complaints
suits in Court of Chancery, George
town, against county officials ask
ing for a judgment, declaring that
their property is exempt from
county taxation and also asking
for the money back that has been
collected in taxes for the past five
years.
Both municipalities claim that
they have been unlawfully assessed
and taxed through the years. They
quote state law to prove it.
Papers were filed by attorneys
for both municipalities, Tunnel
and Tunnel, through Samuel R.
Russell.
In each case, the defendants are
Norman Jester, Joseph Kellock
and Frank Dawson, members OF
the Sussex County Board of Assess
ment; Louis V. Spencer, receiver
Of taxes and county treasurer; and
Clarence Lingo, Levi Warrington
and Victor Adams, members of the
Levy Court.
The petition of the City of Sea-
ford is signed by Randall Larri-
more, mayor, and that of the town
of Lewes by Otis H. Smith.
Both municipalities set forth in
their complaints that they had ap-
pealed to the Board of Assessment
on February 21, and had been turn
ed down.
