PLAN RETURN OF
IMMENSE HERDS
TO NEBRASKA
Cattle' and Sheep Sent to the1
Ranges in Southern' States
May Be Brought -Back.
If proper arrangements can be
made with the railroads about 150,
000. head of cattle and several hun
dred thousand head of sheep will be
returned to the ranges of Wyoming
from pastures in Texas, New Mexico
and Arizona, where they were sent
because of forage shortage and
drouth in the state the last season.
"A meeting has been arranged for
Thursday at Cheyenne," said A. L.
Bemis of Grey Bull, Wyo., "between
representatives of railroads serving
Wyoming territory and representa
tives of the live stock industry of
the state, at which the stockmen will
present arguments for the extension
of the time limit on special freight
rates on the stock moved, out.
"The time limit for the special re
turn rates will expire May 15 and
the stockmen want an extension to
July 15. : It will be a great saving
to the atockmen if the time is ex
tended and will mean a great deal
to the Omaha market in , bringing
back such a large number of cattle
and sheep. The regular carload
freight rate is $136, as compared
with the special rate of $39 a car
load." V
