CHANCE FOR HUMANE WORK.

Mr.. H. d. Cough, the state agent of
the state board of child and animal pro-
lection is working through the central
portion of the state and finds that the
people are enthusiastic over the posi-
bility of better conditions in this i'm
portant work. At Douglas Mr.. Cough
was given great encouragement by n
Of the most rominent sheepmen in the
entire west, who advocated better pro-
lection to the animals at shearing time.
This flockmaster said that the sheep
and the owners we're at the mercy of
some shearers who insist upon doing
cruel and inhuman work at shearing
time and it was his belief that there
should be a humane officer within easy
call at the proper season of the year.
He was of the opinion that the various
sheep associations of the state would
would lead to practices strictly within
the lines sanctioned by people whole
lieve in exercising a reasonable amount
OF humanity in the treatment of all
kinds of dumb animals. To show that
his heart was in the work of the board,
the fiockmaster mentioned contributed
a goodly sum to the work and said that
he would take pleasure in introducing
the state agent to the prominent sheep
men of Casper and vicinity.
1t has been the practice of some
shearers, in their greed to make large
salaries, to not only handle the sheep
in a rough Inc cruel manner, but to
mutilate them almost to the point Of
serious injury. 1t is extremely de-
sirable to have this bad practice stop
ped. Men can make enough money
without going beyond the line Of rea-
son and humanity and those whose
greed will not permit them to curb
themselves ought to be restrained by
the Jaw.
This kind of work is clearly within
the scope OF the state board and Mr..
Cough will doubtless aid to the extent
of his ability in bringing about better
conditions.

AN ANSW

Nothing's the matter with wyoming;
She's going fast to the front.
From early dawn to the cleaning
The booster is doing his stunt.
We're up and a coming, stranger;
What's more, we've got the stuff;
There's lots Of hay in the manger;
Our talk is no wise bluff.
Our mountains are mountains of riches;
Our valleys are valleys Of wealth,
Prosperity flows down our bitches,
We breathe the air of good health.
Our friends in the east are awaking,
They are heading straight for the west,
Where an empire is in the making
And NATURE is right at her best.
Nothing is wrong with wyoming
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
The state is simply a-growing
AS any great commonwealth ought
Politics isn't the matter,
The Enterprise is off of it's base;
Prosperity goes on with a clatter
Like horses running a race.
Knockers and kickers remind us
OF yaller dogs chasing a train,
For soon they are left far behind us
Their knocking and kicking in vain
Nothing's the matter with wyoming
N~othing-you understand
So cut out the raving and foamine
And boost to beat the band.

or long standing cases OF catarrhal atfec-
tions and their ~resultants, as bronchial,
throat and lung diseases Except consump-
tom accompanied with severe coughs. It

being used instead. Glycerine is entirely
unobjeetionable and besides is a most
useful ingredient in the cure of all stom-
