evening an enjoyable one for those who
had accepted their hospitality. Carl A.

The last game of the season on the
home grounds was PLAYED against Mont
peller Seminary on Monday, the 2Slh.
1t is estimated that between two
and three hundred people witnessed
the game. As was anticipated, the game
was hard fought one and called forth
nervy playing from both sides. Mont
pelier Seminary surpassed our fellows in
weight, but the lack in our men was
made up in their adversative force.
Especially good work was done by
Moves, who, by his fine tackling, saved
the game. The work of Ranney, the
Pierces, Smith, Thompson and Hadlock
was up to their standard of excellence.
B. Moore very pluckily played the game
after quite severely hurting his knee. c.
Pierce scored his touchdown from the
twenty FIVE yardline. Ranney also scored
a touchdown. Montpelier Seminary
scored on drop kick. The lineup was
as follows:

WOOL CLIP.
Prevailing Price Is II Cents-one.
Eighth of Clip Sold.

Along with the success of shearing
in Wyoming is reported a successful
lambing season, the increase being es-
timated at more than 95 per cent. The
ranges are improving with good rains
and everything portends a splendid
year for the sheepmen.
1t is estimated that one-eighth of the
total clip of wool in the state has al
ready been sold to buyers who have
been on the market for the past two
or three weeks. Fifty-four per cent
has been shorn. Last year there were
produced in Wyoming 27,119,718
pounds of wool, and a conservative es-
innate of this seasons clip places the
total amount at $4,000, 900 pounds in
round numbers. The prevailing price
at Casper, Rock Springs and in the
Big Horn country is II cents, but num-
bers OF clips nave been sold for 10
cents per pound. The highest price
so far reported as having been paid
was received by Robert Taylor OF Cas-
per, it being 1914 cents.
No little amount of Wyoming wool
is brought co Billings, it being est
mated that over 100000 pounds we're
on this market last year, it being the
bulk of the clip of the Big Horn basin.

SETTING OUT
Ranchmen In Valley Busy With Spring
Work-Irrigation Topics.

Spring work in the Yellowstone val
ley west Of Billings has started out
in good shape with splendid prospects.
The ranchmen and farmers are devot-
ing more attention this season to i'm
proving their places by the erection
of new buildings and the Setting out
of orchards, and it will be but a few
years until the valley Of this county
will be a veritable fruit field. 1t has
been demonstrated that the Yellow
stone valley car produce just as fine
fruit as any section of the northwest,
but up to the present time only a few
farmers have paid any attention to
fruit raising.
j. l.. Rhead, the new engineer of
the Big Ditch company, whose duty it
will be to measure out water to the
ranchmen n others on the line of the
ditch, arrived in Billings this week
and together with 1. D.e'Donnell made
a trip along the irrigating ditch Mr..
Rhead comes from Coalville, Summit
county, Utah, where he has been en-
gagged in the work of measuring water
for irrigating bitches for the past four
years. He was very favorably i'm
pressed with the Big Ditch, stating
that it was the equal of any that had
come under his observation.
The several irrigating companies
have about completed all arrange
ments for opening theft bitches. The
Big Ditch is undergoing the usual
spring repairs. The water was turned
into it a week ago, but has not yet
gone through it's entire length.
The old Mill Ditch company, whose
ditch runs from above Park City east
for a distance of Is miles, has a big
crew at work hauling rock with which
to repair it's dam and is also cleaning
out the ditch and making other gen
eral repairs. The company is negotiat-
ing for right-of-way to enlarge it's
ditch below Park City.
Water was started through the
highland ditch the first of the week.
The Yellowstone Ditch company is
building a flume across Alling
gulch and also making general spring
repairs. This ditch comes out at
Rapids and runs to Park City, a. dis
lance of about Is miles.
The Canyon Creek Ditch company
is just finishing the charging of it's
ditch, which caused an outlay of sew
eral thousand dollars.
