'mill season in the ground and
with the cattle ranges of Texas
promising an early spring the fell-
ing among stockmen of the state
is better than at any time* since

port issued today by V. S. Schutz,
govei nmont statistician.
Cows arc coming back to their
real value, tlie report says, and
there is a good demand for all
lasses of stock. A heavy calf,

A slight improvement is noted
