OF the settlers, and also to establish
a corral where stray stock may ba

Thousands of dollars worth of crops
are being destroyed by the ranchars'

no attention to their stock.
The petition. to the commissioners
has not yet been acted on.
The scarcity Of hay in the southern
tier of counties has been a great in.
convenience this spring. This scarcity
is due to the wide extent of prai"ie
fires that not only left the prairias

The scarcity is due also to the large
number of new settlers. The hun.
dreds of teams employed in grading
the new Milwaukee road have also
increased the demand for hay. These
facts have made the price of hay the
highest in the whole history of the
Missouri slope.
A year ago where hay was delivere.
at $3.50 per ton it now brings $40, and
is hard to get at that. In places nea,

The new crop will soon be gathered
but 1t will be comparatively scarce
owing to tho prairie fires Of last fall
and this spring. Even with plenty al
rain there will no deep, thick grass
