P0SSUM UP GUM TREE:
COOhEY IN A H0LLER

Some weeks ago w. A. Stump no.
ticed coon tracks on his ranch at Four
Mile. Never having seen a coon in
Colorado, he was at loss to account
for the tracks, He did not think it
was coon and was quite curious to
know what was making the marks of
the Missouri quadruped.
For two weeks he noticed the tracks
and tried to trace the animal but
could find-it. Two weeks ago the pris-
oners who are working on the peni-
tentiary farm-the Lou Green ranch
trapped and caught the animal, which
proved to be a coon of unusually large
size. The pelt hung in the window of
Woodring & Maher's market last week
and attracted considerable attention
from passersby.
Lou Green, who has lived in this
community for forty-two years, and
who has trapped successfully nearly
every species of varmint, says that
this is the first coon he has ever seen
in the valley.
1t did the Nlssourians good to drop
down to the market and see his coon
ship, and the coon hunting stories
that its presence has developed would
fill good sized volume.
So far as known no pet coon has
been kept in the valley and the sup
position is that the coon came up the
river in quest of the good things pro-
vided by nature in this beautiful val
