Van Burgess, Deputy Commissioner of the Utah Department of Agriculture, addressed the budget problem. By the April 1 deadline for paying head taxes, only $114,000 had been paid, less than half of last years total. As a result, matching funds have also been greatly reduced.

Nationally, sheep numbers are down from an all time high of more than 40 million to just over 7 million last year. He Jorgensen, Adrian Peterson, i. jimi r. ii tin !
