a large audience OF Lembi County
stocknen assembled at the court
house last Saturday In response TO
Invitations from Major +. A. Fem,
the Supervisor OF forest reserves for
Idaho, for the purpose of gaining In
formation about the new range con-
ditions.
Mr.. Fem made very comprehen-
siye statement covering all the main
features OF the new system In its re.
lation to the citizens of this COM
munity, the full purport of which
was given to the readers of The Re-
corder In the issue OF last week.
1t was explained that the forest re-
serve policy was ordered by congress
in 1891, but 1t was not established by
order OF the president till 1896. The
great extension of forest reserves in
the West during the past few years
is not due to any individual effort,
but 1T Is In accordance with fixed
policy of President Roosevelt. 1t is
now a condition that the people of
this county are called upon to meet,
Mr.. Fem came here TO aid in max
ing the most of the condition as 1t
exists. lie asked the citizens to as
sist in working out the best results
under the laws and regulations as we
finds them.
In this line the speaker requested
the assistance OF the stockmen OF
the county particularly. He suggest
ed organization OF stock associations
and the appointment Of advisory
boards to act with the forest reserve
officials in gaining the best possible
results under the new rules.
The range price for cattle on the
reserves for the regular grazing sea-
son was announced 10 be 25 cents
each for cattle over six months old
and b cents for horses. Application
for range privileges were requested
to be presented at the office OF the
supervisor not later than March Goth.
The office for this Jurisdiction is in
the Brown block.
The range season will begin at a
definite date to he arranged at a
later date to be fixed by representa-
tives of the stockmen and the of.
ticials.
1t was explained that no arbitrary
rules would be imposed, that would
not provide for any possible emer-
gency. Even after date for the
turning on the range was fixed, per-
mits could be secured to meet any
such emergency as shortage OF feed.
The range fees are to be paid by
remittance TO the proper officials in
Washington, d. C. under the direc-
tion OF the local officials No funds
are to be paid to the local forest
rangers or supervisors. Privileges
are secured by the evidence that the
required fees baye been transmitted
to the proper authorities.
The mining interests OF the county
were represented at the meeting only
in a limited degree. 1t was made
plain that the prospector and miner
were to be restrained from no privi-
leges whatever that are enjoyed out
side Of the reserves. Ii would be
more difficult to evade the laws undeT
the forest service, and there Is a
greater degree of protection for the
legitimate operator. The prospector

The Hereford Cows.

There Is some controversy in re-
gard to the milking qualities Of Here
fords. The whole question of milk
ing as affecting this breed. or, in fact,
any other. is simply a matter OF
training, and the practice of letting
the calves run with the cows is very
Injurious from the dairyman's point
of view. The practice followed by a
very successful breeder OF Herefords
is to take the calves from the cows
when about week old, and rear
them by hand. keeping the calves
simply in a growing state, and In or.
der to develop their milking qualities,
out allowing them to become overload.

Woman and Have Cured Many
Hundreds OF Other Cases OF
Common Ailments

Loss of appetite, coated tongue, bad
taste in the mouth, heavy dull headache
and q dull, sluggish feeling are
the symptoms of stomach trouble. They
indicate that the stomach is on n strike:
that it is no longer furnishing TO the
blood the full quota OF nourishment that
the body demands, hence every organ
snffers.
There are two methods of treatment,
the old one by which the stomach is
humored by the use of predigcsted foods
aud artificial ferments, and the new one
by which the stomach is toned up to do
tho work which nature intended OF it.
a recent cure by the tonic treatment is
that OF Mrs. Mary Stnckpolc, OF 81

Some dalrymen do not think rock
salt is as satisfactory for cows as the
common salt. The dairy COW requires
n great deal of salt and usually She
does not spend enough time at the salt
lick when It is so difficult to obtain
as is the case when rock salt is used.
When common salt is given her she
can get the necessary amount in a
very short time. One claim made for
rock salt is that 1t can be left out in
all kinds OF weather with but very lit.

solve and be carried away by rain.

vice, similar to the one shown on this

of the roof on hinges so the salt can be

to occasionally remove the top and pull.

For dairymen who claim that the
cows do better when given common
salt this device will certainly simplify
the means of feeding 1t to the cows.

Laundry work at home would be
much more satisfactory II the right
Starch were used. In order to get the
desired stiffness, II is usually neces-
sary to use so much starch that the
beauty and fneness of the fabric is
hidden behind paste OF varying
thickness, which not only destroys the
appearance. but also affects the wear
ing quality of the goods. This trouble
can be entirely overcome by using De-
6ance Starch, as It can be applied
much more thinly because Of its great
or strength than other makes.
