A Denver Statement OF Burlington
Building TaIIIes with The Leaders,.
Denver News
If the Burlington road is really so anx-
ious to extend its line into Northern Wyo-
ming and reach the rich mineral belt and
coal fields, there Is nothing to hinder the
building Of the line according to all &C
counts.
The report was current Yesterday, and
it came from semi oficial sources, that
Fitzpatrick Bros. 4 Collins, the big rail-
road contractors and land owners, had
offered to build the line. The firm is
enormously wealthy and has the millions
Of a big Eastern banking house behind
them. They have lots of capital in all
their schemes, and in addition to this
they own 5000, 900 acres of coal and min
eral land in Wyoming. That in itself
would give an ordinary firm moro or less
prestige and they would at least WELD lots
of power.
Tbar bull, tho Cheyenne 4 Northern
and the Cheyenne & Burlington, and
made plenty of money. The firm Is very
anxious to have e railroad reach thoir
land, and they have made a proposition
to the Burlington people which, it is be-
lieved, will be accepted.
They propose TO build the line from
Greeley or, more properly speaking,
Lyons to Cheyenne. and from thence
northward to Newcastle, a distance of
800 miles. In payment for the work,
the firm agrees to take second mortgage
bonds, thereby allowing the road to issue
first mortgage bonds to secure rolling
stock, etc.
President Perkins of the Burlington is
now on the Pacific coast and is expected
to arrive IN Denver next week. He will
20 to Cheyenne TO meet the Kilpatricks
and talk TO them concerning the proposed
extension.
The Burlington people are very anx-
Gus to extend their line from Lyons to
Cheyenne, as was shown in yesterdays
NeCs. Then if they penetrate the heart
of Central Wyoming as is proposed it
will give them a magnificent line Into vir-
gin territory. The line would also afford
the big contracting firm an outlet for their
great coal beds and mineral lands. Dem
yer would be their natural markets and
would be greatly benefited thereby. 1t
would be equal to the building OF a new
line to the city for there is too much en-
terDrise about the Burlington to snag its
head against an interior town in Wyom-
ing and go no further. 1t only looks
reasonable to suppose 1t would extend to
some important Ioint further in the
north and west.
When President Perkins comes back
next week something definite may be
learned.

OMAHA, May Two months since the
Nebraska State Millers' Association
appointed a committee of experienced
grain men TO investigate thoroughly the
crop condition and report at the annual
convention to be held in Omaha today.
The report made public this afternoon
declares that all statements Of damage to
the Kansas crop by the Hessiau fly and
rust are false; that the crop in Kansas
and Nebraska is in a fattering condition,
and that the acreage is the largest in the
history of the states. Furthermore tina,
the grain now in store in the state Is
sufficient for milling purposes until the
new crop Is harvested.

A Burlington Extension.

\ special dispatch from Newcastle to
the Omaha Bee says: Hunter Bowen
left this morning for Merino, the present
terminus OF the b. & NJ. extension from
Newcastle to the Northern Pacific, Tor
the purpose of opening a cOmmissary
store for Fitzpatrick Bros. & Collins, who
are to finish the grading upon the eighty
miles beyond Merino as soon as possible.
W. F.. Beechwood. superintendent OF

From sixty to eighty miles of new track

SELECTED DAIRY DOTS.

One pound of cheese contains more nu-
tTitive elements than two pounds Of beef.
Close observers say that skim milk is
worth twenty cents a hundred pounds for
feeding to calves and hogs.
Are your stables clean? For the sake
OF those who have TO drink the milk-as
well as the cows-be sure they are clean
Dairying is similar to other occupations
in that il is profitable or Improbable
just as the dairyman makes it. Energy,
true mot false) economy, and strict
adherence to business principles, are the
'watchwords'' to success.
1T Is well to test your cows-knoW'
exactly which are paying both in quality
ana quantity. Keep record of your
prohts and expenses and you will thus
be enabled TO know Just what your stand
ing Is at the end of the season.
The best butter makers are the greatest
readers of dairy literature and thus keep
posted about the methods of others and
40 not depend too much upon the knowl-
edge they have inherited from their
grandmothers.
The oils Of the different kinds of grain
fed TO dairy cows have very much TO do
with the quality of the butter. Cotton
seed, while giving an increased flow of
milk rich in butter fat, makes the butter
greasy and sticky. Oats and bran give
good oils for butter but the best is the oil
of corn. TO the general use of corn in
feeding dairy cows in the West is due 10
a great extent the fine flavor of Western
batler
1t has been noticed that the butter fats
in milk are lessened by excitement in the
cow at the time of milking, and as the
majority of dairymen are after the butter,
they should conform their methods with
thai object in view. Cows exposed to
cold storms not only give reduced guam
titv of milk, but it is also deficient in fat,
and the supply is very difficult to regain.
Humane treatment ana good care are
l,,,itn as essential to highest results from
