GRAZING TAX
TO BE- EXTENDED
A Grazing Year Instead Of . CaIea-
ddr Year to Be A4opfet---
This Has Not As Yet
Been FIXED
APPLICATIONS COMING IN RAPIDLY

A squib has been going the rounds
of the press to the effect that the col
lection of the grazing tax would he
delayed until June !, but 80 far as
the Post can learn this statement is
not warranted. A letter has been
received from the department by the
local forestry officers stating that in
reserves where permits had been is
sued last year from January l to De-
cember 81, those permits would be
extended without charge until the be-
ginning of the 1905 grazing season. 1t
being the intent of the department to
recognize grazing year instead OF a
calendar year.
Thus on the Battlement and White
river reserves. if the grazing year
were fixed to begin June 1, 1905, then
all cattle which grazed on these re-
serves last year might be placed on
the reserves as early as their owners
saw fit, and they wonld not be dis
turbed until June 1, when the forest
officers would collect grazing tax
to June 1, 1907. if all-year grazing
was wanted, other wise for the season
of 1906.
On The Holy Cross reserve just cre-
ated and on which there could be no
permits last year, there is some doubt
AS to the meaning of the order.
Whether stock will be allowed on the
reserve prior to the beginning of the
grazing year or whether they will be
excluded entirely until that date.
The dates for opening the grazing
year is fixed by the department, and
will vary in different states. and the
local officers have no init imation a.
yet as to the dates for this section.
Applications for grazing permits
are coming in by the handful to the
supervisor of the Holy Cross Forest
reserve and it is thought that sppli-
cations for the full quota. which can
be allowed, will be filed long before
the grazing season opens.

Sure Death to Prairie DO0S

1t has been discovered that soap,
plain, common washing soap, is a
deadly poison to prairie dogs. The
discovery, like most other big dis
coveries, was made by accident.
John F. Braun. farmer near Milton
vale, Kansas. must be given credit
for it. He had about 100 praiaie dogs
on his farm and started in to wipe
them out. He used traps. After he
had caught about thirty the rest got
wise and would walk around his
traps. Among the thirty was one
that the trap didn't injure and he
put it in cage for pet.
BY mistake the children fed the
praiarie dog in the cage small piece
OF common soap one day. Within FIVE
minutes the prairie dog was dead
MIR. Braun decided to experiment.
He cut bar of soap, which cost him
three cents, into small pieces, about
the size of a hazelnut. and threw a
few pieces into each hole in "dog
town." The next day there wasn't a
solitary prairie dog left to tell the
story. All were dead.
He used brand of soap made in
Kansas City. Ten cents worth Of
soap will clear big farm of prairie
dogs. The results. as shown by MIR.
Braun, eclipsed results from the dope
which the agricultural college sends
out to kill prairie dogs Florence

Midland Sceaery in on

Denver. Jan. ia fine oil paint.

place them in the New York and the
local Offices Of the road and to have
miniature reproductions made for ad /.
vertising purposes. The Seven Cas-.
ties which form the subject of the
painting are situated on the western
slope just as the railroad enters Red

They Had to Be Shown

There was a small reunion of
Missourians in town on Tuesday.
F. H. Avery, a Colorado Springs in :
surance man who registered at the
Glenwood on that day. found, after
comparing notes with mine host Lee.
that they were boyhood neighbors in
Henry County, Missouri. and little
more scouting got Treasurer E. E.
Drach, Of the Citizens bank, into the
combination also.
The Missouri yarns that were
swapped by that crowd were long and
interesting, and some of the fox hunt
ing stories will be found hard to beat
even by whatever may result from
the coming lion hunt up at Gypsum.

Congressman HOgg
Defends Farmers

Washington, Jan. 6.-Representa-
tive hogg. the last member of the Col
oradc delegation to address the honse
on the Philippine tariff bill. had his
inning today. Although but little
more than FIVE minutes was allotted to
him. under the rule limiting debate
on amendments, he managed to crowd
good deal Of argument of live inter
est into his remarks. and when his
time had disappeared it was unani
mously agreed by the house that he
should have five minutes more. Sew
eral witty sallies he made at the re
publicans who were supporting the
measure aroused the merriment of
the house and the galleries. He
poked fun at the members of the com
mittee that went to the islands last
summer by telling them that he had
read in the report of the journey that
at every place they stopped there was
parade. a banquet and a dance,
which cost the natives about all the
money they could raise; that the
junket had cost the Philippine gov
ernment $40. 600, the same amount as
the Panama press correspondent was
paid.
st occurs to me, said Mr.. Hogg,
that it costs the administration
about $40, 900 every time they want
to convey news that things are being
run all right.
He censured the democrats for their
support of the administration on the
tariff. and likened them to broncho
which was first owned by man out
West, and which was continually be,
ing borrowed by his neiehbors. The
owner finally taught it to buck, and
it learned to buck so we'll that it
bucked off not only the borrower but
the owner himself. Hogg said the
democrats would find themselves in
the same plight regarding this tariff
bill. He decried the policy of show
ing all sorts of sympathy for the
American farmer, on the ground that
it was patriotic The broad twang of
his words and the Champ Clarkish
manner of his delivery tickled the
house and galleries greatly, when he
closed his short speech by waving his
arms and shouting de6antly: 81 be-
lieve more in patriotism of the Amer
ican citizen than in anyone who wears
a breech -clout and lives under BAN
boo tree.
Floor Leader Payne raised laugh
on himself when he replied to Hogg's
remarks by stating that although the
committee had INDUCED in lots of
banquets. they had had "full" hear
ings and had learned all they went
after. He brought out another roar
when he tried 70 refute Hogg remark
about the Filipinos wearing breech-
clout. He said he had seen most Of
them wearing coats and trousers. and
that he saw one man wearing plug
hat.
lis that all be worss' inquired
Mr.. Hogg.
