# AIr. Allen returned to Bismarck Tues

Mr.. Gum, Of Colorado, left for the east

! ably go into the cattle business in the

able and experienced, to handle large
herd successfully. We hope soon to mum,
be- him among ON ranchmen. N
FL We never knew paper that didn't
contain notice stating that old papers
were for sale at the Office. AS we dislike
GLOWING q practice that never yields q
dollar a yea, We wish to state that we
have several 6dndle ssof papers at our of
flee which we viii give to our subscrib-
ers, IL they will take the trouble to take
them away. Don't think you are impos-.
ing on Us BY taking them, as they are Of
more use to5an7 one else than to us.
~ ]. G0nners, OF spearfsh, has been in.
sMsdora fer several days. He Is On the.
way to his Beaver creek rancho, where he
has about 5000 head OF cattle. Some
1 time ago ID riding all through the heart
of his range he found onIy one carcass.
His cowboys state that more cattle died
last summer than during the winter and,
place tho tDtaf loss at less than one per.
cent MI. Corners himself said that two
8per cent is an outside figure. This Is q
TemaTk ably fins showing. the best we;
{ have ret heard. All cattle men unite in
saying that the loss Ia the Bad Lands es7
specfaiIs has hardly been large enough to
account for deaths from natural causes.
This IS the last Issue of THE Cow Boy
that viii BE- sent to any but paying sub
Egcribers. We have given ample notice to
all dsIinauents and we propose-t to have a
list upon which there is not a solitary
3deadhead. AS we have said before, q fail
snre TO receive the paper win be the best
kind Of an intimation that it takes
money to subscribe for THE Cow BOY.
Three months is d long enough time for
any one TO pay up in. We will give this
time to- nhscrib who are reliable, but.
beyond thss ne wont trnst Vanderbilt Of
Gould NE ara prompted to this decision,
~ several reasons. First, cash Of short
credit Is the only business way of rum
ming u paper. Second, we consider a
money equivalent II received BY sub-3
scfibars Just as much as IL a. person has a.
ga bill changer into small coin. Third
