Excerpt from Prairie Experiences in Handling Cattle and Sheep
For men with small capital it will prove nowadays more profitable to keep sheep; the tendency heretofore has been too exclusively to breed for fine wool, but now mutton is much in request, and a big 'carcase is aimed at. I do not know that any mutton is at present ex ported, but sheep are multiplying considerably in coi Orado, Wyoming, and Montana; it will not be long be fore mutton will follow beef as an import to this country. Sheep are delicate animals compared with cattle and horses, and Of course cannot be let run wild as the other stock is; but if a man understands them, will live on the range to superintend his herders, and has a farm where he can put up a good quantity Of hay for winter use, he will get more profit out of his three to five thousand sheep than out Of the same money expended on cattle. The business is not popular, and the sheep man, unless he lives quite apart, is always in discord with his neigh bors who own other stock. The man who intends to farm will not probably go so far West as he who Wishes to rear stock; the new farmers are settling into Dakota, Nebraska, and Kansas, where promising land can be homesteaded or pre-empted; but a very large number Of new emigrants who can afford to pay something for improved estate find what they want without travelling so far.
