tho the major industries of this section the topography po of the country and climatic conditions are such that over 80 00 per cent of the area is not adapted to cultivated agriculture the greatest value from such lands comes from the native vegi tation that is transformed into meat and nd wool by herds that graze over thes theio 0 arid and and semiarid ranges some idea of the importance of live stock to this section can be obtained from the following figures of shipments through cedar city car loads of sheep i car loads of cattle 82 car loads of wool and mohair receipts from these shipments for the past year are arc estimated as follows sheep and lambs lum bs wool and mohair cattle total there are a number of other shipping points aside from cedar city in this section where considerable quantities of live stock and wool are shipped namely iron springs lund and modena these figures however refer only to shipments from the cedar city station southern utah U t a h is particularly
