Brands have to be re recorded in 1000

after-a Fee of IS cents re-
quired by the County
Clerk for such
re-record-
ING.

Perhaps not one man in n hun
dred understands that he will,
during the present year, have to
T., -secord his stock brand. But such
is the case, as witness the follow
ing, taken from the Revised Stat
ues of Wyoming:
Section 1898. In January
1900, and every tenth year there
after, each board of county COM
missioners shall furnish the clerks
of their respective counties with
"A new brand book and during the
year 1900 and every tenth year
thereafter, every owner of n brand
or mark in use during the ten
years then last past shall re.rccord
the same, and any failure to so
re-record any brand or mark shall
be deemed an abandonment of
the same, and any person, compa
ny or corporation may record such
abandoned brand or mark as mis-
own"
The fee for re-recording any
old brand is twenty-five cents.

1T is impossible 10 depict the en-
thusiasm Of the belenguered garrison.
Cheer upon cheer ran from post to
post and stan officers, civilians and
soldiers llocked 20 greet them. The
contrast between the robust troopers
OF dozen battles and the pale,
emaciated defenders OF Ladysmith was
great
We could possibly have lung on for
six weeks longer but the privations
would nave been great and the sick
ness and paucity Of our ammunition
would have limited the number Of as
sauIts we would have been able 70 re-
sist.
I'VE started the seige with 1900
troops. 1000 civilians and 1900 natives.
Between casualties and sickness, 5000
soldiers passed through the hospital.
1T is impossible TO over-emphasize
the priyations Of the sick. Since the
middle OF January, man once down
was practically lost. The reduced ra-
tions of th. soldiers lust sufficed for
their subsistence.
Each day 900 old horses and mules
We're slaughtered and were converted
into soup and sausages."
