Unknown to most of the residents OF

point, while the rich grazing land in
the Big Hole and vicinity is becoming
famous in cattle buying centers as the
producer of high class of beef.
The 400 head of stock to be shipped
east to-day came from the Big Hole
ranch of John Wenser. one of the Big
Hole cattle kings. He has sold the
stock to Iowa buyers for a price APP
proXimating $4,000.
Yesterday the herd was driven from
Mr.. Wenger's ranch to point two miles
