the herds. or else force the owner out of the

inent cattleman of the Natural Bridge. Mr.
Ayres says that he has given the matter
some study, and believes that the year 1898
will witness the high water mark for cattle,
at which time he proposes to close out his
entire herd and will invest in Sheep and will
then stand some chance of getting share
of the range. Thus we find Wyoming and
New Mexico working along the same line,
with the same object in view, which means
an extensive range section lost to cattle.

growing industry, every one has his fancy
for certain breeds and his judgment is ant
IN be warped through familiarity with and
fsvoritism in the direction of some particular
species.
Here and there some one ventures to predict
that this general tendency to enter the hhsl-
ness must inevitably result, within a snort
time in overproduction and consequent IN
Jury to those engaged in it. This is danger
which Is always present In connection Win
every industry under the sun; but it IS not
one which is likely to be experienced in this
country with reference to the growing OF
sheen for many years to come. The fact is.
the industry is almost at the lowest point
reached in twenty years. According to the
statistics of the department OF agriculture,
the total number of sheep in the unitea
States. Jan. / 1879, was IS, 1913 500. In 1897 the
lowest ebb was reached when the number
had been reduced to So SIS SAB, or 1,305, ISL be-
low that of seventeen years previous. But
on Jan. l. 1885, a recovery was shown, in the
figures 81, $50 $50, or again in one year or $751;
3l7 head; but even the total at the beginning
of the current year showed a depreciation. OF
1866 $40 from the figures of 1879. The high tide
in the history OF the industry was Indicated
by the record of Jan. l, 1884, when the aggre-
gate had reached so e26, 626 There was only
a moderate shrinkage the following year,
when the figures showed a total of 5O.36O 243.
The increase was gradual between 1879 and
1884 and the decrease spaSmodlc from 1888
to 1887. There was an inclination to recovery
in 1898 when the total reached AZ, 273,553, but
in 1894 the total had shrunk to 45,04S.017; in
1895 to 1929 O64; in 1896 to IS, 29S 1888, and in
1897 to &c. SIS, 643. AS above stated, decline

The Iola register. [volume] (Iola, Allen County, Kansas) 1875-1902, 1898-04-29
TWELVE PAGES.

The addition of four pages each week, making
The REGISTER twelve page paper-larger by
fifty per cent. than any other paper in the
county-supplies the readers of this paper not
only with the most complete record of the news
of lola and the only complete record of the news
of Allen County, but also with all the important
general news of the United States and the world.
The REGISTER has always led the newspaper
procession in Allen County, and with twelve
pages, all printed at home, it feels justified now
in claiming to be farther in he lead than ever.
1t is very grateful for the patronage which makes
this enlargement possible, and trusts that it's
friends, especially those in the country, will take
occasion to show copies of it to their non-sub-
scrbing neighbours and to speak good word for
it whenever opportunity offers. 1t would seem
as if so complete paper The REGISTER now
is ought to go into every substantial family i'm
Allen County, regardless of politics.
