RepIantinq Grass.

The replanting of grass on the
wasted cattle ranges in Nebraska,
Wyoming, Colorado, Utah, Montana,
Idaho and the Dakotas is TO be at
to npted by the railways penetrating
those states. The irst problem to be
solved is the finding of a grass plant
suitable for stock purposes. Nearly
1000 acres will be fenced In and
divided into thirty lots for expert
meats in planting. These western

Wadsworth may receive its due
