Notwithstanding that the country

ly as many cattle as ever are being
grazed in the southeastern part of
the state, along the Little Missouri,
Box Elder and tributary streams.
A late arrival from there reports
that the Harris Cattle company, one
of the few really large concerns that
still remain in the state, bought no
fewer than 10000 Texans which are
now being delivered. They will be
held for two years before they are
marketed. The company, like about
all others operating in that section,
has immense areas enclosed and while
still classed as range stock, its cattle

manner to which the range stock
of few years ago was stranger
It's shipments last year aggregated
about 1000 head and were among the

Very little snow fell in that section

latter was the naming of auxiliary
committees to assist the commission
in the collection and arrangement OF
the different displays that are to
constitute the exhibit as whole. The
president and faculty of the state
school of mines were appointed q COM
mittee on the mineral exhibit and
were delegated with the authority to

as special agent to have supervision
Of the collection Of the exhibit. An

cooperate with the committee.
Another committee was formed
which is composed of the president

DOCTOR KNOWLES AND DAWSON
COUNTY sTockMEN.
MAY ISSUE PROCLAMATION
Likelihood That Governor Will Be
Asked to Act ofsiciaIly-con-
ference Of Veterinarians.

According to the Helena newspa-
pers Doctor Knowles, state veterina-
rian, is of the opinion that the condi-
tion Of range cattle in Dawson county,
so far as their health is concerned,
is such as to warrant action by the
state authorities.
The doctor returned few days ago
from Glendive, where he had been
to consult with the cattlemen in ref
erence to dipping their stock. He
had hoped that they could be brought
to see the need Of dipping without
the necessity of the department to
take drastic measures in that regard.
His mission, however, appears not to
have been very successful and he
gave it as his belief that the governor
| would issue proclamation for en-
forcement of the law and regulations
| in respect to contagious diseases
among cattle.
| Tomorrow, Saturday, a meeting Of
| veterinarians of the adjacent states
1 and Canada will be held at Helena,
| when the matter OF the situation IN
Dawson county will form one OF the
more important subjects that VIII
4 come up for discussion. Among those
4 who will be present is the chief vet
], erinarians Of the Dominion. It vas
also believed that DIR. Salmon, chief OF
!, the bureau of animal industry at
Washington, would attend the meet
ing. but a dispatch received by Doc
, tor Knowles conveyed the information
that he could not attend.
About Sheep Dipping.
instructions to the sheep inspectors
of the state have been issued by Doc
tor Knowles, as the season for dipping
is near. A dipping proclamation has
been issued by the state veterinarian
+, of Wyoming that is causing consider
able comment because OF the official
advertisement OF certain dip that 1t
!. contains. Doctor G. T. Seabury, the
Wyoming veterinarian, took occasion
to dwell at considerable length on the
merits of the dip he recommended,
a saying that his experience convinced
a him of it's efficacy, and closes by CIV
q ing the address of the concern that
: manufactures it.
9 The proclamation was printed IN
n the Northwestern Agriculturist and
n through an error was credited 70
Doctor Knowles of Montana. A letter
a has been received by the doctor from
q the concern in which his attention
n is called to the mistake. Continuing,
e the letter goes on to say that the
o writer of it has learned that a similar
IS proclamation is about to be issued IN
u this state during the season, in which
t. event the house would like very
much to have the dip mentioned IN
a proclamation issued by your state. I
This exhibition of rare nerve an
moved the doctor and he declared EN-
t. phatically that he did not propose te
use his Office for the purpose OF ad
vertising any preparation. The state
~ has two official dips-one O. lime ane
sulphur and the other OF tobacco ant
~ sulphur-and Doctor Knowles will no
g push the product of any patent medl
cine outfit.

Freiahters' Sad Plight.

Monday afternoon heavy rain fell
between the city and Twenty-mile.
At Seven mile the bridge was washed
away. On the north side Of the stream
several freighters loaded with wool,
swno were coming to town, arrived
just before the bridge went out. The
only feed to be had were the few
oats they carried with them. AS they
could not cross the creek nothing re-
manned for them to do except to un-
hitch and turn out their horses on
the barren waste. To save their stock
one of the men mounted horse and
came to town with an appeal for help
to rebuild the bridge, so that they
could proceed. He evidently succeed
ed as the outfit arrived Wednesday
night.

FLORIDA BOYS INVENTION.

the mysterious fluid can be made use.
full to man, has just received word of
the securing of patent upon his auto.
electric alarm lock. The invention
consists largely of applying contact
points, which meet the proper wires,
in door locks. Either mortise or rim
locks can be used, aud by a simple ar
rangement of wires and plates the
lock is made self protecting. A twist
of the knob sets a bell in the house tU
ringing merrily, and the same effect
follows any attempt to open the door
with key, whether the correct key
or not. The lock is recognized by all
who have seen it as an excellent thing,
and it will indeed be a terror to burg.
lars. The plan Tor adjustment Is sue b
DIS to leave no trace of the hidden
power in sight. The young man has
already received several fine offers for
his invention, but will likely retain
possession, and have the LOCKS manu-
fac tured under royalty.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inflamed condition of the mucous lining
of the Eustachian Tube. When this
tube is inhamed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when
it is entirely closed, deafness is the
result, and unless the Inflammation can
be taken out and this tube restored to
its normal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever: nine cases out of
ten are caused by Catarrh, which is
nothing but an inflamed condition of
the mucous services.
We will give one hundred dollars
for any case of deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by
Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for circu-
lars, free.
