A Prediction.

Commissioners of Agriculture Thorn
IS says dry weather runs in cycles in
the state and that this is the ending
of a period of drouth that makes its
appearance once every ten years or
therealouts. The latter eighties were
very dry and the latter nineties have
been similar. For the past two or
three years the precipitation has been
growing less. Last winter the snow
fall was exceedingly light and this
summer the rainfall has been far be-
low the average. For this reason it is
expected that the snowfall the COM
ing winter is apt to be much heavier
than usual. This means a problem on
the big cattle ranges in the western
part of the state. The conditions
there SO far as hay and range are con-
cerned are as bad or worse than ever
before. The grass is short and like
finder, and prairie fires are sweeping
the ranges for hundred of miles.
Many ranchmen have lost their hay
and a great part of their range. Cat
tie will be shipped close and some of
the ranchmen have old hay enough
to pull through the winter with, but
there are many not so fortunate.
With a heavy snow fall this winter,
there is apt to be great loss of live
stock. The ranchmen are 10th Ito sell
off their stock if it is possible to keep
them, for they realize it will be well
nigh impossible to stock up again in
the spring at anything like reasonable
prices.

Law Not Gnnd.

Judge Pollock has held another law
unconstitutional. The statutes pro-
vld that when payments of any sum
pass through the hands of the clerk
of courts, hat officer shall retain l
