This argument was invincible, and
she kept quiet about the origin of

steers this spring, and a number OF
others have been talking of the same
plan. The land around there is some
of the finest grazing land in the state Of
plenty of feed. People who do not know
of the extent of the cattle business in
North Dakota have no idea of its value
to the state. There are hundreds of
thousands of cattle on the ranges during
the spring and summer, and it requires
the services of hundreds of men to look
out for them. Many is the night l have
STOOL watch over bunch and many

were about 200 in the lot. During the
night, about midnight something started
them up. They stood III the darkness,
paving the ground all ready for
stampede. There were two of US, and
we began slowly riding around the
bunch singing i'll quiet tone. This
seemed to calm them and they LAID down
again. L have seen herd of 10000
cattle, all mad with fear and fright,
galloping as fast as they could with the
men in charge after them. | have seen
LOCO cattle killed ina stampede by being
trampled to death by the others as they
fell over cliff. One day, in the early
SOS, we had stampede of about 1000
cattle. There was all emigrant wagon
in sight, but the cattle did not turn out
for it, and after they had passed over
the vehicle we could not find thing
left of the whole outfit. We found the
broken blade of knife and portion of
tine barrel of rifle. There was nothing
