Grand Junction, Col. Oct. l1.-Bl2
herds OF deer are coming down from
the mountains into the Grand Valley
which they cross 10 gointo their win
ter quarters on the Little Rock Gins
a few miles from this town.
The heavy winds and rains OF the
last few days have started droyes OF
them at one time instead OF coming
down in small numbers, as they
usually do. A. a result trains are
delayed while waiting for the drOves
to cross the tracks.

if only the laws OF the state would
permit the killing of deer now
It shows. however, that deer still
abound in great numbers here. and

storms, the deer were hard to find in
their customary winter quarters.
Great drOye- of deer are headed
toward the Denver, Rio Grande and

trouble is expected on the road when
the animals mass themselves in front
of the trains on the north side OF he
tracks.
They have been summering on the /
BILE lands and are now headed for |
their wintering grounds and salt |
licks south OF the tracks crossing the
railroad within d few miles OF this
place
Trainmen and passengers report
the deer in immense herds. They
can be seen from the platforms on
passing trains, feeding within rifle
shot of the tracks.
The deer are coming down TO the
head waters OF the Piceance, ROM
and Rifle creeks. From there they
