as Mr.. Loucks took them out with, the
trip will be made in a short time, and as
comfortably as possible.

A Double Burden.

Cattlemen who are obliged to Craze
their cattle on the forest reserve, and
that comprises a great majority of them
in Routt county, are forced to just dou-
BILE their taxes. rhe minimum grazing
fee is 25 cents per head, and the county
tax figures about 81 cents per head. Do
you wonder that they object to double
taxation? The value of ranches in and
adjoining forest reserves has been great
ly lessened by reason of the policy re-
Gently inaugurated by the forest service.
People do not want to buy in close prox-
unity to Mr.. Pinchots preserves. 1t sub
jects them to double taxation Pilot.

Gated in the Avery Block, and owned
byO. c. Petit, up to month ago, when
he sold to E. G. Harrell and r. L. Dick
ensheets, Of Boulder, Colorado. The
college is to be conducted in connection
with the Boulder Business College, and
we have every reason to believe it will
make large and strong school.
Their new quarters in the WEIGH Block
give them almost ten thousand feet of
floor space. We are informed that they
will probably put in a Musical Depart

business college courses. O.. C. Petit
will remain with the school as manager.

this private institution will attract a

county affords cities which have attrac
tions in more than one respect then our
property becomes more valuable.

MARKET LETTER

Denver Union Stock Yards, May 13-
Receipts of cattle were limited early
last week and prices made a substantial
advance. Later in the week the supply
was better but the advance was well
maintained and beef steers are 10 to 10
cents higher with COWS Is to % cents up
New record prices were made almost
every day. Steers sold at $3.50 TO $40
highest prices paid here this year, and
cows brought 81 80 to S460, the latter
being 25 cents higher than previous high
price up to last week for carload lots.
Bulk of good killing steers on sale
brought S4,75 to S525 cows S310 to
81. 25 bulls 49, 90 to 49, so and veal calves
S6. 90 to $500, with tops on the latter at
ST. The feeder and stocker demand
was also good but few here. Prices
closed firm to higher with bulk Of weeks
sales ranging from 81. 90 to S4.15. Quail
ity of the feeder and stocker offerings
however, was Just fair and fancy steers
would have sold considerably higher.
Several punches of southern stockers ar
rived but they were billed through and
only small amount of trading done.
Indications point to liberal receipts of
this class of cattle and good trade this
as the inquiry is strong. A few three
year olds sold last week at $1,000 per
head, the only sale of southerns reported
Today's receipts were 1900 head, bulk

A Pleasing Incident.

One Of the pleasing incidents of the
recent Odd Fellows anniversary celebra-
ton took place in the opera house in
presence of vast crowd of spectators,
who heartily enjoyed it. Just before
the close of the days exercises and after
Grand Master F. c. Cloudy had finished
the delivery of his address, Fred Christ
man and A l.. Rolling were invited up
on the stage, for what purpose they had
not the least conception until Grand
Master Goudy called them to the front
and presented each with n beautiful
gold badge as a token of appreciation
for their more than twenty-five years
membershipand faithful service in the
order as Odd Fellows. The presentation
address was exceedingly felicitous and
one of the best that Mr. Goudy, who is
noted for the handsome way he has of
saying nice things nicely, ever made
The gifts were gracefully acknowledged
by the Recipients, but Mr. Christman
says that his legs trembled worse, his
heart thumped harder and his teeth rat
tied more than they ever did when he
faced the enemy in battle line in Old
Virginia during the civil war, and how
he got off the stage without being car
ried off he hasn, t the least idea.

FENCE RESERVE
Government has decided to CO.
operate with ranchmen
to enclose land.

A dispatch from Washington last Sat
urday brought news to the effect that
the government will cooperate with the
stockmen in fencing the reserves.
The forest service, cooperating with
the stockmen in building fences for con-
trol of grazing on the White River Nat
ional Forest reserve IN Colorado, here
after will furnish forest material for
construction, including wire and stap-
les The stockmen will be expected to
keep these fences in repair.
Posts and poles may be taken from
the forest reserves and in some cases
wire and staples will be furnished and
delivered at the nearest railroad point,
All that the stocmnen are required to
do is to haul and set the posts and bring
the wire from the railroad point to the
place Of construction 1t is estimated
that the cost of wire for such fences
will be about $50 per mile, delivered at
the nearest railroad point. James A.
Blair of Meeker, supervisor of the White
river forest, has been authorized to en-
ter into an agreement for expenditures
which would be necessary for building
of the first fences in his forest.
Fences on the grazing land, it is
thought will prevent stock from stray
ing and prevent over grazing, bringing
about an improved condition of the
ranges and making it possible to keep
stock under proper control.
Another new departure for the forest
service is that of attempting to exter
inmate wolves and other predatory an
imals. The matter has been under cop
sideration for long time and it HIS
been urged that it was proper for t9e
government to afford this protection b

first move made in that direction is 10

freed BY a Bear.

Jay Sidener, who was in the city Wed
nesday morning. from Pinkhampton,
where he and Mrs. Sidener are i'll charge
of the Langhof ranch, says he was treed
by bear Sunday morning within half
mile of the house.
Jay had % 20 rifle and when he dis
covered the bear,-a pretty fair sized
brown one-he at once took shot. As
the calibre of the rife was small it took
couple of bullets to let bruin know he
was being shot at, and he at once resent
ed:the insult Mr.. Sidener took to tree
and carried his gun with him. After he
was safe distance from the ground, Jay
commenced shooting at the brute again,
and the bear took for tall timber.

Closed Down.

From S. II. Mcintosh, who has been
at the Village Bell mine for the prst four
months it is learned the mine closed
down last Friday and will probably not
be reopened again until in July, when
they will resume development
Mr.. Mcintosh states they have accom-
plisbed several hundred feet of devel
opment work and opened upa number
of good veins of copper ore, and with
sufficient depth will undoubtedly strike
ore in shipping quantities.

THREE HORSES
d. H.CroSs comes in from Fort
Collins with B1oodsd
Stock.

d. H. Cross came in last week from
Fort Collins with three stations which
he has for sale to North Park people.
The horses are quartered at III. Loucks
livery stable and Mr.. Cross is renewing
old aquaintances, he having lived in the
Park for eight years at one time. and
seldom failing to make at least one trip
each year since that time.
Mr. Cross has some first class horses
with him on this trip. One animal,
Bouton, 46027, an imported French Per-
cheron, eight years of age, black and
weighing 1905 pounds, is one of the
best horses of his class ever in the Park.
The horse is perfect in every particular
and Mr. Cross holds him at figure in
which there is some reason.
Another one of Mr. Cross horses is a
grey standard bred percheron, an ami :
NAL somewhat smaller than the black,
weighing 100 pounds, thoroughly gen
tel, and an excellent colt getter He is
also well built animal.
the other horse owned by Mr., Cross is
a brown Hambletonian, coming three
years of age, weight 1.050, clean limbed
and built for travel. His sire is n horse
with trotting record and the colt,
though green, handles himself like the
thoroughbred he is. The horses are all
good stock and Mr. Cross sells them on
their merits. He is well known hero
and his word is good, the horses being
just what he represents them to be, and
the prices are within reason.

the DIR. Henry Fischer ranch, E. A. John
son. who has charge of the ranch, bring
ing the cream to town. During the day
other ranchmen delivered cream, and
the first churning will probably be done
tomorrow
Owing to delay in machinery it was
not known the exact date the creamery
would be ready toreceive cream so no
time was set. consequently delivery was
slow until ranchmen could be notified.
1t will take some little time to get
everything systematized and running
smoothly but the number of cows milk
ed will increase right along, and the
North Park Creamery will be turning
out good quantity of butter in very
short time.
The building is practically finished on
the interior and is as neat and handy as
can be The >ats, churn and all other
machinery are in position and the
plumbing work completed. The smoke
stack for the boiler was put on yester-
day morning.
The Laramie Creamery Co, which
was organized to put in creamery at
Laramie and take over the Walden
creamery, to be run in conjunction with
the Laramie concern, are going ahead
with the work, purchasing machinery
and getting building in readiness for
the plant. 1t is rumored that Mr. Sterz-
bach, who is now in charge of the Wal
den creamery, will be taken to Laramie
to look after the plant there, and an as
sistant placed in charge here. If this is
the case it is very much to be regretted,
as it would be difficult to secure man
who 80 thoroughly understands the
creamery business, or one who would be
more likely to make success of the
enterprise as Mr., Sterzbach
