Oil cake feeding boosts cattle at Mickleson ranch
James Wickleson of Big Piney and major Lincoln County tax payer visited Kemmerer during the pai week to review court cases. Mickleson reports feeding oil cake to calves and weaker cattle reduces hay needs and improves condition, potentially profitable if hay is scarce. He has added Dunham ranch land on Cottonwood to his holdings, now about 12 000 acres, aiming to support roughly 900 cattle per 1000 acres. Lyon Robben bought a new Overland car last week.
