Calf Crop Will be Large.

Pierre, S. D., April 49, G. e.
Conklin, OF Leslie, and ]. W. Will
liams of the Moreau river coun try,
while in the city made the statement
that the sections of the country
where they live will have..a larger
calf ':crop'' this year than for many
years past. On account of many Of
the COWS coming through the hard
winter of last year in a thin condi-
ton. and not being to fat to breed :,
the increase is greater for that .rea-
son, as we'll as from the fact that
owners who in the past years have
made no effort to bred their COWS
paid particular attention to it last
year. Then the fine weather of this
spring has enabled all the calves to
pull through. They say that the
prairie is thick with them and the
increase from that source this year
will be immense.

HERE'S TIE OTHER SIDE
The Small Ranchers Give
Their Side Of the View
field Sheep Trouble.
NO SHEEPMEN ORDERED OUT
Of the Country. The Facts
Given by The Stocl1n1an for
the First Time.
From the Northwestern Stockman.

the First Time.
From the Northwestern Stockman.
The SToCKNIAN is pleased to be
able to give its readers the facts
from the standpoint of the small
,attlemen and ranchers in the mat
ter of the late trouble in the vicin-
j y of View6eld, Meade county.
Ibis paper has given the matter
some attention and published the
news from time to time as given by
s,heepmen. There are usually two
sides to every controversy and this
case seems to be no exception to
the rule.
There reside in and around View
field some Is or 20 families who have
made their home in that vicinity for
several years past. By hard work
and strict economy they have gath
cred around them each few head
of cattle. These cattle form their
sole means Of gaining livelihood
and comprise the entire wealth of
these small ranchmen. Some time
ago a bunch or two of sheep we're
taken in the neighborhood. These
sheep are destroying the range and
the situation has resolved itself into
this shape: Either he to or three
bands of sheep must move to other
range or else the Il or 20 ranchmen,
with their little lunches of cattle,
must seel- other quarters. Where
would they 60? Surprising they
should move, what assurance have
they that new bands ofsheep would
not be thrown in among them as
soon as they got settled? These are
the questions that these small ranch
men have been forced to consider
and they have come to the conclu-
sion that it would be better for
these two or three flockmasters to
move their sheep to other range
where they might Craze unmolested
than to leave them where they are
and thus compel some 25 small
ranchmen, with their families, tC
seek other locations and begin Their
work anew.
From small ranchmen directly in
terested in the controversy TIL
SToCKMAN learns that none of the
sheepmen have been ordered t(
leave the country. They have beer
requested to move to other range
but no attempt has been made tt
forcibly remove them. 1t is also
claimed that by moving a very shor
distance the sheepmen could obtai'
range that is undisputed and the.
would be unmolested. This is tn
situation as stated to The SToCKMAl
by the small ranchmen interested
1t seems that Jack Hale, the WEI
known.Tilforl shecpman, has visit
ed the range in controversy and h
agrees that it is the duty G
the sheepmen there to move
When Hale's focks interfered wit
the interests of the small ranchme
in his vicinity he rounded up hi
sheep and moved them to the rang
north Of the Belle Fourche, whel
they now run undisturbed. n
has the good Will Of all stockmen.
It is the intention Of The STOCk
MAN to be fair to all and we than
our informants who represent tn
small ranchlnen in enabling us t
state the facts in the matter. 1t
hoped that the present trouble wi
be adjusted to the satisfaction {
sheepnen and small ranchme
alike.

The Florence daily tribune., 1898-09-29

1t is said that in every instance
where forest fires have been started
it was through the carelessness of
campers. The loss already reach
cd by the f~es which are prevail
ing at this time is estimated at
over five millions of dollars. BE
hold how great matter little
fire kindleth.'
1t seems to be perfectly natural
for some people to underestimate
any act which they perform, ,wheth-
erf or good or evil. They never con-
slider the consequences which may
result from any act of theirs, ,wheth-
er in itself it be insignificant OF
one of Importance. They simply
follow an impulse, regardless of
results. Just one little thought as
to what the simple act of dropping
a match into the grass after light
ing his pipe might portend, would
have warned the hunter against
such imprudence.
The timber of Colorado is val
uable adjunct to the great resour-
ces of the State, and campers and
hunters should have enough re-
gard for its value to exercise rea
sonable amount Of caution in re-
gard TO FIRE.
The Florence daily tribune., 1898-09-29
Stranger Than Fiction

A story is going the rounds of
the barber shops and streets like
this:
It.is stated that Weaver & Bond
recently found on the inside of
one of their slaughtered beeves n
gold watch and chain. On the
face of the watch was the engraved
monogram 81. H." Lou Haas
who keeps the clothing store
second door from the meat market,
heard of the incident aud dropped
in to examine the watch. AT first
sight he recognized the ticker as
one he owned when boy. On
thinking over the matter he re-
called the fact that about sever
years ago. at his Missouri home,
he was one day in the back yard
moving grass with scythe. His
vest containing the watch, was
hanging on the fence. A pet calf
wandered by and proceeded to
devoura good portion of the gar
ment-gulping down the watch
much after the fashion of billy
goat enjoying an oyster can. The
calf was family pet and Louis
sister would not submit to having
the animal sacrificed, even TO save
the watch. Years passed by, Lou
came West and engaged in bust
ness in Canon City. The calf
grew and was sold, finally being
gathered up in bunch of beef
scattle and was shipped here to
Messrs. Weaver & Bond, with the
result recorded.
All this sounds enough like fic-
ton, but the strangest part is yet
to come. 1t is claimed that by
some peculiar revolving process of
the stomach the stem -winder of
the watch was acted upon and the
watch kept going all these years.
Making allowance for the differ
enoe in time between the Central
and Mountain states the timepiece
had lost but three minutes in the
seven years. Canon City Daily

No deterioration in the superb

the past, supreme in elegance and
comfort.
