Snowfall During February.

The stock of snow was materially in
creased during February The distribu-
tion, however, uneven and for the
mountain districts as whole the snowfall
was below the normal for the month,
though the depths more than double
those reported at the close of January.
AS compared with year ago there is
deficiency over the drainage area of the
the South Platte. especially at moderate
elevations where the depths average about
one-fourth great they did at the
close of February, 1899; the shortage is
less marked in the vicinity of timber
line. For similar attitudes on the Grand
and Gunnison watersheds the values are
one-half and three-fourtlis, respectively.
There is comparatively little snow at
moderate elevations on the Rio Grande
watershed, but on the high mountains
the average depth is very close to that re-
ported a year ago. while over the area
drained by the Arkansas. the depths are
practically the same at corresponding
elevations 1t may be of interest to note
that the greatest precipitation in the
mountain districts occurs during March
while the normal amount for April is
practically the same east of the eontinen-
tai divide and one-half on the western
slope On the Arkansas river watershed

teriaIly improved during the month of

A Golden Wedding.

Golden weddings are not frequent, and
people who reach the fiftieth anniversary
of welded life may justly feel that they
haye attained rich and ripe experience
of welded joy. hope and bliss. The
younger generation look upon the golden
jubilee of a married life as a distant en-
chantmeslt too far off to be realized
When this period of married life is
reached it is eminently proper to solemn
ize it. in an appropriate manner On
Sunday II. J. Strange and wife celebrated d
the fiftieth anniversary of their marriage
in this city. They were married in Eng
land fifty years ago, and came to America
in 1855 There were present at this gol-
den anniversary, sons and daughters,
grand and great grand children Claude
Hart of Trinidad, Colo, a brother of
Mrs. Strange, was present. and Mrs.
niece. and the following children of Mr..
and Mrs Strange: E. H. Strange and
family of Ford county, George Strange
of Colorado, Mrs s. J. Capps and Mrs
L II. Lewis, Pictue. Colo, Thomas Olive
and wife. Dodge City, and eight grand
children and four greatg grand children
Other friends and relatives were present,
and the entire number enjoyed sump-
tious dinner, and a happy and pleasant
time WAS spent Less than half of the
grand children were present. In Mr..
Strange's family no death has ever oc-
cured. Mr. and Mrs Strange were the
recipients of some fine and valuable
presents. The pleasant family reunion
and the hearty congratulations of kith
and kin, will smooth the pathway now
ending in the golden sunset of life, which
we hope the end is yet far distant

The Building Time.

There times for all things, it is said
Some periods of time show greater activ-
ity in certain lines of business than at
other times just now when there is
general prosperity and confidence in the
country, the building movement is forg-
ing toward, in response to necessities and
demands. In Dodge City there is some
prospect of a number of dwelling houses
being erected this season, owing to the
urgent necessity for more houses. In
conversation with E. B. Goodrich. one of
our we'll known contractors, he informed
US that lumber and building material
could be purchased in Dodge City at 81
to 81 a thousand less than in Chicago.
This may seem Incredible, but it can be
verified by facts. Mr.. Goodrich lately
received the prices on bill of lumber
from the Chicago Lumber Company at
Chicago. In comparing the prices with
the prices at H. Juneau's lumber yards in
Dodge City, lie found that better grade
of lumber could be bought here at less
price than in Chicago, excepting on
sashes and doors, which was only a shade
higher; bat this cuts only a small figure.
The bill for the whole house would be
much lower than lumber purchased in
Chicago. with a better grade of lumber
furnished here. The lumber furnished
here is delivered free, and this makes
another reduction.
Harry De Baum. another contractor,
corroborates MIR. Goodrich's statement.
and he says you can buy lumber cheaper
in Dodge City than you can in Oklahoma,
where he was lately at work, and the
lumber here is of much better quality.
Mr.. Juneau says lumber can be bought
cheaper in Western Kansas. at retail,
than in Eastern Kansas, and this it true
of all lumber prices in Ford and adjoin-
ing counties. We were shown letter
from Topeka, in which it was stated that
lumber could be bought cheaper in
Dodge City than i'll Topeka, and refer
eucc made to bill of lumber
amounting to $4,000, bought by "a Topeka
firm frool a local dealer There just
as good reasons for selling lumber as
cheap in Dodge City anywhere, and
we believe if purchaser will make in
quiry he Will find sufficient and satisfac-
tory easons for the statements made in
this article.

Across the life of every human being
there falls shadow-e shadow that dark
ems every CLEAN of sunshine, that turns
every joy to bitterness 1t is the shadow
of death In our dreams it haunts us
wide awake, our laughter dies away in a
wall of anguish. There is something
awful in death as hundreds of friends all
over the western half of Kansas who
now lamenting the sudden taking away
of DR. A. S. Chouteau can testify. And
yet in the midst of all the and
ness, which had birth>in his death, there
is ray of hope, of sunshine and of com
fort-he did not live in vain. No minis
ter, no physician, no philanthropist, has
done by half as much for suffering hu-
manity in this section did this depar-
ted friend during his sojourn among us
AS we stood by the side of his grave after
the casket containing his remains had
been lowered to their last resting place to
become a clod of earth, to moulder
back to nothingness, to be eaten by
worms, to sleep the centuries away, the
thought came to that If every person
upon whom he had bestowed a kindness
were present to drop a flower on the cof
fin there would be no need to fill the
grave with the coarse clods OF mother

REAL ESTATE SALES.

of real estate transactions. The activity
in real estate transfers is evidence that
Ford county lands not only available
but saieable. The real estate movement
has hardly begun. A year or two ago
lands were hardly marketable, but the
sales the past two months indicate q
healthy revival in that line
We make melton of only a few sales OF
lands:
NJ. F. Mcmillan of Nickerson, bought
of Alex Mulendore the farm of the latter
in Grandview township, paying $3.50
cash. Mr.. Mullendore bought 16O acres
of Sam Crawford. paying $780,
W. T. Coolidge, paid $1340 taxes
on lands in township 90, range %. which
were lately purchased by the Topeka
City Real Estate and Trust Company
The lands embrace 21 quarters and lie
south of Spearville. The purchase price
was S5400. cash.
James Martin and Cliff p. MarkIey

goes, therefore, 1t would be very wise
thing to remain on the safe side and not
skin the animal, but burn it the spot
and TINS remove further danger by a
thorough isinfection of the possible
source
But this is not all by any means The
hides of blackleg victims the best pos
sibie material for the dissemination of
the germs of this disease. That the dis
ease can be spread by this means needs
no further proof here.
BLAcKLEG COMMON.
Blackleg is a stationary wound disease
This disease occurs only in certain locali-
ties, places. sheds, ETC.. where the germ
causing it has gained a foothold in the
soil. Certain soils favorable for the
indefinite propagation of this disease
germ and hence where once introduced
the soil being favorable to its develop
ment, blackleg becomes permanent
visitor. Actual statistics gathered at the
State Agricultural experiment station at
Manhattan show that blackleg becomes
more common every year; it appears in
new localities and claims an increasing
number of victims in old ones.
One cause of this is the spread, through
various agencies, of the blackleg germ.
That the transportation of hides from in
10Clcu may play al InpOTldnl
role here is hardly questionable. The
danger of transporting cholera infected
swine is recognized by the laws of the
state regulating the transportation of such
animals from place to place and practic
ally from one state into another.
LOSS MILLION ANNUALLY.
When it is known that the state of Kan
sas loses annually S6OO, 900 to ST 900, 900
from blackleg in cattle, and that the
other diseases mentioned frequently cause
unnecessary losses in live stock and dis
ease and death in human beings, we
have sufficient ground to insist that
everything within our power should be
done to prevent the spread of these dis
eases.
The first step in this direstion is the de-
struction by burning of the entire carcass
fectious diseases.
The hides of such animals should by no
means be transported utilized in any
other way, unless, as before stated, it is
done under the strict supervision of a
we'll orgnizcd veterinary and sanitary
police. and since with present laws
and sanitary regulations this latter is oat
of the question, there remains only one
alternative and that is destruction by
burning
1t is the moral duty of every owner of
live stock of any kind to see to it that
this practice IS enforced on his place.
