At lunch time, the day the anti '.oleo''

The congressman pair off just as
boarding school girls do, and each has
his favorite dish-a versatile chef is he

The menu on these days contained a
surprise. One of the stone jars occupi

the opponents eff the Circuit Bill gather
ed round to "a tribute to the butter
from the farm. The rules on butter
plates we're suspended, and each dipped
in for a taste of real butter again, as il
it were the last chance to obtain the
pure article" The action was a silent
tribute to a flavor, which carried with it
the freshness of dew or the clover. The
knives vent into the jars again and
again to get the flavor OF the sure

Medicine Bow Forest Reserve.

In his annual report to the governor,
Superintendent Campbell has touched
the hearts of the fishermen. 1t is the
most interesting reading they have had
for some time But in addition to the
interesting name in which he handles
the subject in hand, Mr.. Campbell re-
produces an article from Frank H. Garlic
ton, of Minneapolis. MINI, published in
the 18th annual report of the commits
sioner of game and fisheries Of the state
of Vermont, upon forest preserves. Mr..
Carleton lays down this proposition:
THAT to nave fish and fishing, we must
nave I'm abundance of water suitable for
the propagation and growth of the fish,
and that without forests we cannot long
have fish or fishing"
That is a trueism that cannot be con-
troverted. and Mr.. Campbell's purpose
in bringing it prominently before the
people at this time was to call the atten
ton Of the legislature of Wyoming to
the necessity of preserving our forests.
The food waters of the Big Laramie do
not run so high as they did fifteen years
ago and there is a noticeable diminu-
ton OF the waters OF other streams of
the state. The cause is the remova of
timber ut the headwaters. Earnest, &C
tive effort is necessary to save the TOR
ests. One man, Mr.. John G. Teller of
Colorado, has tie contracts for 100000
ties and is cutting timber as fast as sew
eral camps of tiechoppers can WELD the
ak.
The people of this side of the range
are interested. Let every stone be turn
ed in the effort to have the Medicine
Bow range set aside as a forest reserve

Duced Tough Don't ye Know.
Deacon Crawford, Of the Saratoga
Sun, has stubbed his toe on a social
problem involving a reason for the large
percentage of marriages occurring in
cold weather as against warm weather.
He puts it thusly: "A scientific ques-
ton is thus opened as to whether a pre-.
valance of gelidness acts directly on the
love centers and produces a rarefaction
of lucidness of the abnormal pericardi-
UNI. or whittier a premeation of calori.

of the prevaricate of physical and moral

the idea prevails that the true reason is
found in the swelling bulb of the Their

Irrigation and Forest Preservation.

IT is very gratifying to western PEG.
pile, who are depending upon irrigation
and all that industry promotes and
fosters, to see that the prejudices of the
eastern people are beginning to give
way to a practical and common sense
view of that important industry. For
years congressman from the eastern
states have fought the question of arid
land and its reclamation by irrigation
with a blind and unreasoning opposition
that presented an almost insarmount-
BILE barrer to the progress OF the west.
AT the present time, while the friends
OF irrigation have not by any means
conquered all opposition, they nave sue
ceeded in making an impression which
will eventually lead to the enacting of
laws that will be far reaching and great.
ly beneficial to the reclamation of the
arid west.
AS soon as the people generally begin
to see the benefits and importance of ir-
rigation the question of forest pres
ervation begins to take shape.
Without forests to hold the snow and
furnish water for irrigation that indus.
try must fail, and with its failure a long
train of disaster springs into existance.
Every industry must suffer and decline.
In this valley we are almost entirely de.
pendent upon irrigation. for it furnishes
hay, grain, vegetables. beef. poultry.
eggs, butter and many other necessities
nf life Without irriYnts,, a.. -.
industry would be practically wiped out.
Without irrigation it would hardly be
possible to work the valuable conner
mines in the adjacent mountains. on ac-
count of the immense cost of TRANSPORT
ing the necessities of life into the min
ing camps At present the greater part
of all the supplies used in every mIaing
camp in either range is furnished by the
ranchmcn and farmers of this valley.
Again, Hithout al abundant supply of
water in our streams, there must be a
large decrease, if not an entire extinc-
ton, Of the fish which now swarm every
water course flowing through this val
ley. 1t would be a severe blow, indeed,
il our people were suddenly deprived of
the food furnished by the trout which
fill our streams and which have become
such an important factor in our lives.
If the broad and inviting prairies.
which lie between the North Platte
river and the mountains on cit her side,
are to be brought uuder cultivation and
made to furnish homes to the coming
thousands; if these now barren acres are
to perform their part in the great ecouo-
my of life, it will be necessary that our
forests be preserved and kept intact as
natural reservoirs of water in the future,
just as they have been in the past.
The great and glowing future of this
country depends largely o.. the protec-
ton of our forests from fire and depreda
tons; it depends upon the construction
OF reservoirs and the promotion in every
way of the irrigation question and SON
gress cannot too soon begin the active
work Of conserving our forests. appru-

reservoirs and in every way fostering
the life of the arid west.

MAKING MORMON CONVERTS.

Some surprise is manifested because
the Mormon missionaries are making
converts all over the world, and par
ticularly among persons who are cred
tied with having intelligence But
that is nothing new, even if it may
appear somewhat odd. Half-educa-
ton, which makes a pretty good imi-
tatlon of intelligence, is peculiarly
susceptible to the pretender. Persons
who are so ignorant that they are
stolid cannot be caught by the charla-
tan. There is nothing for him to
catch upon. But a glib tongue pro-
PEELED by assurance and cunning can
easily make converts among men and
women who have not learned enough to
know how little they do know. Nu-
merous instances of the working of
this rule can be remembered by any
person 'of experience and observation.
That the Mormon missionaries, who
are shrewd, and who moreover are I'M
doubtedly sincere to a great degree,
are making converts in so-called intel
ligent circles, is not surprising. The
surprising thing is that the converts
have succeeded in creating the impress
sion that they are intelligent-New
