Basques from Europe are proposed to relieve a sheep herding shortage faced by Western ranchers. State livestock expert Paul Orcutt notes many have left the business as reliable herders are scarce.

Everett Shuey of the Montana Wool Growers reports on Basque herder imports. Valentin Aguirre of 82 Bank Street New York is the U S contact man. A Montana sheepman must advance 1150 dollars to import a herder, with Aguirre the source for details and Shuey offering assistance to interested growers.
