The upward tendency OF cattle prices
has been very largely confined to the
full-blood and high-grade stock. The
men that during the last few years have
been raising only medium quality stock
and stock OF scrub variety. have not
msdo money. This is particularly true
Of the period when feed has been high.
Feed for scrub stock costs just ~ much
as it does for kigh-priced stock, but 1t
10 worth very much less whea it is
turned into meat. Reports received
from common feeders OF common cattle
say that tho last two years have not
given satisfactory returns even though
the prices for fancy cattle have been
very high. During this time. however,
the raissrs OF cattle have been impressed
on them the necessity for better qua lity
stock. and . good many Of them that are
still breeding inferior animals are doing
20 against their wills. This in some
measure accounts for the large prices
that arc being paid fos good bulls OF the
several beef breeds. We think the les
sons of the present cosditious will Be
lasting; that the impres ions made viii
be permsnent.-Fsrmer's Review.

The recent discovery Of . strong vein
OF copr er ore in the Dominguez canon.
between Delta and Grand Junction.
bears more indications OF gsnuineness
than many other stories Of minerel dis
soveries in new localities.
The locality is close to the Gunnison
river, about twenty miles from Delta
and about thirty from Grand Junction.
Domioguez canon comes down from the
northeastern slope OF the Uncompahgrs
plateau, and It heads not . very great
distance from the Unsweep canon.
where some time ago discoveries were
made.
Tho formation 10 Of the same general
character throughout that part Of the
state. and copper bearing orc has been
found in several different places.
The new discovery would be all the
more important il it should prove 10
other respects valuable, because Of its
proximity to the railroad and to several
well-settled communities. Being only
five miles from the track Of the Denver
4 Rio Grande road, il would be an easy
matter to supply any camp that night
be started there with all the necesssrios
Of life, and proximity to tho valleys Of
which Montrose, Del and Grand juno
ton arc centers. would make the cost
Of grain and other farm products CON-
paratively small.
Tho public will watch with interest
future reports from the locality Of this
strike. for the fact that q community OF
some two hundred people has been COL
lected there indicates that the showing
is good. 1t will not take long to deter.
IN inc the real character OF the district
for develcpsment will be easy and there
10 no obstacle on account Of altitude OF
distance from the railroad TO prevent q
dsvelop~ment Of elaine with the use d
machinery At . rapid rate. The climate
10 favorable for work Ut this sesson ol
the year, and il there 10 plenty OF good
ore il should b brought 10 light in .
