Mr. Reed, who has the distinction of be-
ing the champion clam diger of this Sec

horse attached to an ice cream wagon
slipped and fell and everybody was ready
and willing TO assist the driver in getting
his horse on its feet again. Mr.. Reed
said that as the horse had a large SPAWN.
an unusual method would have to be
adopted TO get IL on it's fet. Just at this
time Mr.. Waterman butted In and told
Mr.. Reed he knew nothing at all about
horse. either up or down. Mr.. Red did
not like this and told Mr.. Waterman what
he thought OF his mentality. The next to
butt In was Patrolman Taggart. who was
working like a beaver TO get the horse.
up and he ordered both OF the debaters to
hush up. They hushed and the horse got
up.

Infu Drifts.
Durango, Col, March 23.-The snow
blockade which has existed uninter-
ruptedly on the southern line of the
Denver & Rio Grande since March II,
was broken yesterday by the arrival of
a thru train from Denver.
Blockade conditions on the Rio
Grande Southern and on the Silverton
branch of the Denver & Rio Grande

not be restored for several days.
After being snowbound for twelve
days on the lofty summit Of Cumbres

range, fifty miles from the nearest
town, train load of fifty passengers
arrived in Alamosa, in the heart of the
San Luis valley.
The train left Durango March 10,
and after it became stalled the snow
continued falling day after day until
1t lay on the level higher than the
smokestack of the locomotive.
Railroad employees carried provisions
to the imprisoned passengers by climb
ing the mountain on snowshoes, and
they We're made as comfortable as pos
sible under the circumstances. Owing
to the high altitude several passengers
became sick.

Petrie reports matured stock becoming
scarce in his locality.
Kean & TURNS, well-known ano
heavy shippers from Dubuque county
Iowa. were on the market Wednesday
with their usual shipment of four cars
of heavy cattle. Steve Kean accom-
panied the shipment and reports good
cattle not plentiful in his locality, but
says there is the usual supply of mar
ketable hogs.
While cattle are suffering more or
less in Colorado thus far the losses
have been very light, says the Denver
Record Stocllnan. Stockmen nave
plenty of hay and are feeding literally
Cattle are all being held where they
can be cared for and losses will be con-
fined largely to young calves and weak
cows. Under old-time conditions
losses would have been heavy, but
stockmen are learning to care for their
cattle, and it is believed that the losses
will be very small.

Representative Hog Sales.
Below are given few OF the repre-
sentative hog sales:
stockers and Feeders.

The supply was moderate and the
demand lust fair. There is just enough
inquiry to keep prices in steady
notch but the trade is fairly active
and all the good steers are soon bought
I'D. Most of the buyers are from the
east and they are all wanting good
cattle but as this class is scarce they
are satisfied to take a secondary grade.
n is hard work to get rid of the COM
mon light stockers and prices for such
cattle look low compared with the way
the best feeders are selling but couE-
try buyers would rather pay the prem
ium for the right kind than to take the
common at the low figure. The bulk
of the light stocker stuff sells at $3.50
m3.s5. There are not many stock cat
tie below $3.50.

Boone, March 23.-During the pas
few months the Northwestern Railwa,
Company has increased it's business or
the iowa lines under the Jurisdiction
OF superintendent w. H. Whalen. at 8
surprising rate. This has been accom-.
plished with practically the same
equipment, but with an increase OF

Ihe total of ton miles hauled during

IOWA DIVISION comprising 569.46 miles
was l62,239,977. The total hauled DIR
ing the month of February just passed
was 23S,5SS,333. or an increase of prac-
th;aily 80 per cent over the correspond
ing month the year previous. For jan

sCs,993 mile tons For the same month
iris year the line hauled 3O3,4S2.442
mile tons, an increase of over sixty
million tons during the month.
Superintendent Whalen also stated
that the Northwestern Railway Com
pany was preparing plans for the en-
largement of the local freight yards
fully 100 per cent, and possibly more.
1t has been known for some time that
the company proposed doing this work,
but the rumors which have been thick,
were always without foundation. How
ever, this year the work is practically
assured and the company is now en-
gagged at work on the plans. The plans
as at present arranged, call for the ex-
panditure of large sums of money, and
will relieve the congested condition
OF the local yards. The Northwestern
Company has been seriously handi-
capped during the past few years owing
tt, lack of yardage and now it is an
absolute necessity to make the change

Traders say this is about the time of
wear when the markets of the country
are flooded with refrigerator beef, and
slaughterers wish to cut down their
stocks and in doing so they are selling
beef cheaply, entleavoring to retaliate
ON the steer trade by forcing prices in
this line down to a lower level.

A DIFFERENCE
IN LUNGS.

In the Edinburgh Uni
versity three human lungs lie
side by side. One is of an
Eskimo and is snow white.
In life, this would be ruddy
with rich blood. Another is
that Of a coal-miner and is
black. The other is of town
dweller and is a dirty slate
gray, as are the lungs of most
city residents. That's why
consumption thrives in cities.
One reason why SCOTS
Emulsion does so much to
keep down consumption is
because it helps to keep the
lungs clean and supplies
them with rich, red blood. 1t
makes the lungs germ-re-
sisting. If the body is run
down and health is at a low
ebb SCOTS Emulsion will
build it up quickly and per-
manently.
