Old residents say that they remem
ber but two former winters in which
there wns so long a period -of below
zero as has characterized the past two
weeks or more. Those two exceptions
were tho winters of 1SS0-81 and 1889
00. In the former yenr over fifty per
cent of the cattle in western Nebraska
perished by reason of the cold nnd lack
of food; in January, 1890, some of tho
cattlemen in the Loup country lo'st
sixty-five nnd seventy, per cent of their
herds. So far during this period of
cold weather we have heard of no
cattle loBos.-but some of the cattlemen
are growing nnxious ns to how long
the cold will continue ns their stock of
feed is rapidly diminishing.
