Nevada Sheepherders’ Wages Slashed in Nevada Proposal
Wages for Nevada sheepherders and camp tenders to drop to 40 dollars per month on February 1 under a statement by H. A. Ages of Wells, Nevada, president of the Oxyohs Land and Live Stock Company and Steptoe Live Stock Company. He cites wool market declines and rising flying costs as forcing the contraction, with current wages around 75 to 90 dollars but unsustainable for industry survival. Firms consider selling wool despite heavy losses, and offer 23 cents per pound for graded wool as a rough rebound, a figure deemed uneconomic for lower grades.
