Worth of the Sheepherder in Western Industry
A March Review of Reviews essay by Arthur Chapman highlights the sheep herder as central to the western sheep industry. It notes owners rely on him to guard flocks worth up to 30 thousand dollars, with monthly wages from fifty to seventy six dollars plus board. The article describes the herder’s life in a canvas sheep wagon or mountain tent, his spring lambing season risks from storms, predators, and poison weeds, and the need for careful feeding-ground changes to prevent mass lamb losses.
