nive five percent per cent the winter win ter has been the thu most severe ever known in texas and the drifting of cattle very great it t is estimated that fully cattle drifted southward and are now in tiie the vicinity ot of devils run and in the pecos river country round hound up parties have already been started for the vicinity but owing to the poor condition of the cattle it will re require q atre much time and very careful dri driving n to bring them back the closing orthe of the old trail north will compel owners owner sto to throw much of their surplus stock on the market this season which will no nr doubt depress the price of beef there ls Is no question that texas ranges are overstocked over stocked and ranchmen ranchman ranch men will be obliged to get rid of large numbers of cows two years old and eve even I 1 year lings 1 to ito relieve the burden and these will have to mainly go on tile the market wyoming and the northwest will receive the cattle cattie which come there by trail but not otherwise and the closing of gf the trail will close this outlet for texas cattle last year vear at this time over one million dollars worth of contracts were held by texas ranchmen ranchman ranch men but this year not a dollar mr atwater thinks the days of free grazing are over in the near future stock raisers will have to pasture their herds on their own lands and cultivate ground enough for fodder to carry their cattle through the winter mr atwater attended all the meetings of the cattle associations held while ho he was in the slate state and was assured that the next
