Glen McCullough, one of the successful sheepmen of Idaho, living at Nampa, was born at Echo, Umatilla county, Oregon, where he attended the graded schools to the age of fifteen years, after which he spent two years as assistant of his father, B. F. McCullough, one of the prominent stockmen of Oregon, devoting his attention to the raising of horses and cattle and owning a large ranch on the Umatilla river, about twenty-five miles west of Pendleton. He, too, is a native of Oregon, showing that the family has been identified with that state from earliest pioneer times. His wife has passed away.
Glen McCullough was a youth of seventeen years when he entered the employ of R. N. Stanfield, the sheep king of the northwest, who today in partnership with his two brothers and Glen McCullough owns three hundred and seventy-five thousand head of sheep, twenty thousand head of which are ranged in Idaho. When eighteen years of age Glen McCullough became foreman for Mr. Stanfield and later was admitted to a partnership and made manager of the business. For the past five years he has resided in Nampa and for four years preceding had made Nampa his headquarters. The company owns most of its range and handles breeding ewes and bucks and mutton and breeding lambs. In the spring of 1919 the company had about six thousand head of mutton lambs. Mr. McCullough is improving his breeding stock each year and in the present year has about four thousand head and will ultimately have fifteen thousand head of fine breeding ewe lambs. He has also begun the raising of beef cattle from fine bred shorthorns and Hereford bulls and already has the nucleus of a herd numbering about one hundred head. In Idaho the ranges of the company extend from the Snake River to the Silver City country and Mr. McCullough maintains a fine office in the Hickey building at Nampa.
In the spring of 1917 was celebrated the marriage of Glen McCullough and Miss Laura E. Morgan, a daughter of Edward Morgan, a pioneer mining man of Silver City. Idaho, where he served as mine manager. Mr. and Mrs. McCullough are the parents of a son, Edward Glen.
Both mentally and physically Mr. McCullough is a splendid type of young and vigorous western manhood and the course which he has pursued impresses those who know him with the fact that he is a liberal-minded man of broad visior, capable of handling big things. If the state could boast of more young men like him its progress would be broader and more rapid. He has the "twelve-cylinder" force and is in the game both early and late with an enthusiasm that shows he is in love with his work and stimulated by the laudable desire to attain notable success therein.
