Range Restoration.

In the true arid range, where sage
brush (Artemisia tridentata) is the pre-
vailing vegetation, fencing and pro-
tecting the land from overgrazing
during that season of the year when
the native forage plants are going to
seed will in all probability be the only
satisfactory methods of restoration.
This will not be at all difficult, for, ow-
ing to the scarcity of water and to the
too great heat, the cattle aud sheep are
taken to the higher attitudes during
the summer months In this way the
native vegetation will have a chance
to make good growth and go to seed
each season without interference from
the stock. Through this method the
pasture will not only yield a crop Of
seed on which future improvements
will be based, but the plants which
have been grazed to a point very near
that Of determination will be given a
chance to regain their former vigor.-

To the People of Clayton and VicInity.-As

view of starting a National Bank Gas
Cashier at Clayton, 1 herewith SUBJ
NIT the matter for you to determine if
it is desirable, and request that you
write me at once the amount of stock
you are willing to subscribe for. The
capital stock to be $4,000 and 500
per share. To become a Director it
would be necessary to hold five shares.
1t would be desirable to have the stock
held by many, in small amounts, and
besides having Directors in Clayton, l
would deem it advisable to have sew
eral in the farming districts, besides
one at each of the following places:
Smyrna, Kenton, Cheswold, Brenford
and Townsend. Now il there is a SEN
timent favorable and you wish me to
become interested, kindly address me
at once, stating how much stock YOU
are willing to take. 1t would require
about two months to get everything in
shape for business, and 1 firmly believe
there is good field in Clayton for
such an institution. 1 will agree to
take or place five hundred to five
thousand dollars worth of stock. Ad.

The two refrigerator car companies
which have headquarters in this town
will ''pull up stakes" this week and
leave for other quarters. They are
leaving much in advance of former
years because of a scarcity of fruit
especially peaches, of which there is a
comparatively small crop in Delaware.
During the berry season they did a
good business but from now on the
prospect is such as to not warrant the
continuance of the refrigerator car
service, at least on the large scale of
former years, and with this prospect
quite apparent the Fruit Growers Ex-
press (Armours) and the Swift Re-
frigerator Car Companies will move to
more productive fruit shipping centers.
1t is expected that both offices will be
vacated by the last of this week.
