Runoff Provides Water For Stock in South Dakota Range
Brookings March 4. Early spring rains are needed to start grass on western South Dakota stock ranges. E V Jones federal statistician says spring range prospects are very poor with practically no feed on March 1. Cattle are thin and losses greater than normal. sheep are in fair condition. Melting snow replenishes stock water but moisture remains insufficient to improve soil moisture and grass outlook. Livestock have been fed roughages and concentrates since almost no pasture remained.
