The bulls; OF the Log ling camp are in
fne condition They have com Portable
stables and the hest Of care. Where an
outfit takes care OF Its own bulls, 1T Is
'nndoubt teddy the best plan to house them

mum and The feed that would otherwise
go toward keeping up animal heat is
consumed directly IN making flesh.
Last Friday morning was o "seTealn-
err. The spirit Thermometers nearly
knocked the eye out Of fifty below, while
the mercury thermometers might as well
have been in business in Patagonia as
far as any good they did here was con-
tcerned. There was no wind and it
was much more comfortable than the
i day before when 1t was twenty-five
degrees warmer but windy. !s5
g5 The cold weather Of Thursday night
/ was too much for one Maltese cross and
one LG bull at the Big plateau camp.
They were the Weaklings Of the herd and
it was scarcely expected they would live
the winter out although they had gained
encouragingly since being taken up.
Continued severe wsather may result in
the loss of q few others, but it would not
he surprising if there was not another
loss.
Since last Thursday we have had occa-
sion to Tevis our & sures on the number
of deer killed in the Bad Lands tributary
to Medora. Tho number is certainly
over ], $40 and probably will come nearer
600. It seems scarcely possible, but
this is the smallest Winter's killing in
4 four years. The cream Of the hunting is
gone forever and as many weary hunt.
Sers who nave tramped all day and scarce
I " seen q track can testify, the man who
kills 4 deer viii earn;i s 5fs
