MARKET LETTER

Denver Union Stock Yards, April 10
Last weeks receipts of cattle We're
about the same as preceding week and
1000 more than Il year ago. Quality
rather better than usual and trading
active. Prices are about the same Us q
week ago and the the market closed in
fine shape with demand better than sup
ply. Good killing steers sold from 81 40
to S. 10, bulk of good cows at $3.45 to
$3. s5 with several punches at $500 to
$4.OO. Bulls were firm at $500 to $3.25

Choice heavy feeders brought 81. s5 with
others at $4.75 and most of desirable
steers at $3.50 to $4.7O. There was a
good country demand for feeders and
stockers and dealers also bought all they
could get, demand being much better
than supply Offerings today were a
bout l, 600 head and not much change
tn the market from close of last week
With the coming of the spring season
Improvements are being rapidly pushed
at the yards and it is the intention of
the Yard company to continue this work
until the entire equipment is thoroughly
mcderniZed. The pavement is being eX-
tended to cover the entire area of the
yards and new horse barns and other
other needed buildings are to be erected
during the summer and many other i'm
provements made. Packers are also pre-
pairing to make additions this summer
which will increase the capacity of their
plants and when all the improvements
contemplated here are finished the fac
ilities for handling all kinds of live
stock will be unsurpassed. Present con
ditions are that the marketing here this
fall will be heavier than ever before in
the history of the yards and it is the in
tention of the management to be ready
to handle it to the satisfaction of all

Dies in Asylum.

Word was received here last week to
the effect that E. "A. Anderson, who was
committed to the insane asylum at Pu
eblo about two wesks ago. died Thursday
morning April 18th, and the remains tax
en- to Denver by his father A. M. And
erson, and inferred at that place.
Deceased was 30 years of age the 23rn
of last February and has resided in the
Park about five years, editing the North
Park Union. On March 10th, last, he
became insane, and death probably re-
suited from softening of the brain.
Mr.. Anderson was member of both
the Woodmen of the World and Wom
en- of Woodcraft Lodges of Walden, hav
ing So. 900 insurance policy in the for
mer He also carried several thousand
dollars in outside companies.
The sudden and distressing end of
the young mans life is shock to the
entire Park, and much sympathy is ex
pressed for the father and mother.

Home Made Curfew.

Every family should have curfew
which should positively "ring tonight"
and every night if needed. These cur
fews are inexpensive and can be home
made. Take piece of siding two feet
long and whittle one end down to q
handle; then take the child that needs
the curfew aud bend him over barrel.
Now take the piece of siding in the
hand and use it for a clapper Put it
on hot. Divide the strokes evenly and
see that none miss Good for boy or
girl up to the age of sixteen, and three
applications are warranted to cure the
most pronounced case of street loafing
that exists. The music this curfew
makes is finer than singing "where is
my wandering boy touight?'-Ex.

School Play.

The play, "The Danger Signal pre-.
sented Friday night by the high school
pupils of the Walden school, was most
entertaining one and was exceptionally
we'll rendered.
The play was drama, and quite hea-
Wy for an amateur company, but Prof.
Preston tackled the proposition with
his usual vigor and for the past tmee
weeks the pupils had rehearsal every
available night in the week. the result
being splendidly worked out play.
After the play sale of the lunch box
es brought by the young ladies, took
place. Philip Hoover acting as auction
eer.
The entertainment wound up with n
dance, gotten up by the young people
present. The entire affair was sue
cess, and something over $40. was netted
This sum will be used to pay off the
Indebtedness on the school house seats,
and to purchase books for the school
house library.

The Public Lands.

That there are two sides to the public
land question seems to be doubted by
extremists on both sides of the controv-
ersy. The important thing for the
western people just now is to agree up
on policy that would be satisfactory
to all the people, and then work to that
end. With the West united it will be
a simple thing to secure from Congress
or the administration anything with
in reason. 1t may be necessary for
both sides to YIELD something to get in,
to this position, but the West cannot aft
ord to fight among themselves over this
matter. The convention to be held in
Denver in the early summer will do
much to clear the atmosphere. What

Telephone News.

AT the adjourned meeting of the up
per Michigan Telephone Association held
at the Haworth school house Monday,
the organization was perfected and "A.
L. Fox, VIM. Winscom and Frank Smith
were appointed trustees and authorized
to go ahead and make all arrangements
for putting in n telephone line for that
section.
There will be about ten subscribers on
this line, which will be grounded Cir
cult for the present. Work is to be
commenced at once. NJ. c Ward will
survey the line and Erwin Beutler has
the contract for digging the post holes.
The poles are to be on the ground by
the 10Th of June
Manager Hoover states the brackets
and insulators for the Rand line, are now
on the way in from Laramie. This line
is to be metallic circuit covering the
Illinois and Rand country for distance
of 23 miles.

Secure Water Rights.

The Z. II. Decker ranch on the Lara
mie river, near the Colorado line, has
been purchased by Colorado company
building drainage system to divert the
waters of the Big Laramie river before
they reach the Wyoming line.
The question of the right to divert wa
ter in one state from lands which have
heretofore had the use of the water in
another state is pending in the United
States supreme court, but the Colorado
concern is taking no chances of an ad-
verse decision, instead buying the land
and becoming the owner of the Wyom-
ing water by prior right.

Laramie Plains Line
Reaches that Point
Saturday.
Extention of Road into North
Park VIII be Next Move of
the L. H. &c p.

The Laramie, Hahn's Peak & Pacific
railroad is now in Centennial, after sew
eral years of much hard work on the
part of the promoters, and while the
work has progressed slowly nothing is
lacking in the quality. The rails are of
the heaviest steel, the track wide guage
and the road bed good substantial one.
During the last year the road has re
ceived financial aid in good sized chunks,
from tho manner in which it has been
pushed, and as quickly as the road be
tween Laramie and Centennial is put in
good operating shape, the company,
which now has corps of surveyors in
the Park, promises to build branch
line into the Park to tap our immence
coal beds.
While the Laramie Plains Line" as it
known, has been made to bear the brunt
of many jocose remarks, and termed the
"jackrabbit line" nevertheless it seems
to be coming to the front quite rapidly,
and it is certainty that no jerkwater
branch would have been put ID with the
quality of material and care used in the
construction of this line.
Another feature that gives many con
tidence in the future CT the road, is the
fact that E. A. Emmmons, formerly
Passenger and Ticket Agent for the
Union Pacific at Laramie, has resigned
his position with that company and ac-
cepted position with the L. II. & P.
Mr. Emmons is railroad man of ability
and integrity and is quite an addition to
their Office force.
The surveyors. who have been work
ing from Peterson's s on the Platte to a
point near o. S. Cases ranch, yesterday
moved camp to the Allard ranch. The
present line will pass through about a
half or three quarters of mile west of
Walden, going up the west side of the
Illinois, and from Cass;s ranch takes a
course nearly direct to the Riach coal
mine. There will probably be a junction
at the Case ranch, as it is undoubtedly
the intention of the company to connect
with the Rocky Mountain railroad.
The men behind the Laramie, Hahn's
Peak & Pacific railroad are boosters and
we will be glad to see such men inter
ested in the Park.

WALDEN COLORADO,

ever policy is to the best interest of the
West and to the states will undoubtedly
be the policy adopted. Those who talk
of abolishing forest reserves are talking
foolishly. Such a result is impossible,
even if advisable, and the majority are
undoubtedly in favor of the reserves.
There are many things about the pre-
sent forest reserve policy, however, that
should be modified or amended, and
this can be accomplished once the peo-
pie of the West reach an agreement

Headquarters at Steamboat.

1t is reported in the Steamboat Pilot
that Thomas Hogan. Supervisor in char
ge of the Park reserve, will move his
headquarters from Kremmling to Steam
boat Springs sometime during the month
of July.
AS Steamboat Springs is more central
ly located in the reserve than Kremm-
ling, which is on the extreme southern
end, this will probably make it easier
for patrons of the reserve.

The following article, concerning the
feeding Of skim milk or separated milk
to calves, was handed this paper by Mr..
Sterzbach, in charge of the North Pask
Creamery. The article is from the pen
of w. ]. Kennedy, of the Iowa Agri;ul
tural College, and has the hearty endors-
ment Of Mr.. Sterzbach, who claims that
too frequently dairy and ranchmen are

are supplied. Skim milk is simply
whole milk from which the butterfat
has been removed. This deficiency may
be supplied thru the use of pure flax
seed or a flaxseed meal. A very salts
factory way to feed the fiaxseed or the
haxseed meal to young calves is to boil

weeks of age. Asthe calf grows older
gradually increase the amount of flax
jelly fed so that a calf of six weeks will
be getting two teacupfuls of the jelly
at each feed. Ry the time the calf is
ten or twelve weeks old the boiling of
the fax may be discontinued and the
daxseed meal added to some ground
oats and corn and fed to the calf in dry
form Immediately after the milk. The
advantage Of feeding the grain imme
diately after the milk is very manifest
where several calves are put in one pen
or paddock, as it dries up tho saliva in
the mouth and prevents the too com
mon tendency towards sucking of each
others ears or other portions Of their
bodies. Good bright hay, grass or some
green food should be placed within
reach Of the calf when it is a month
old. 1t is surprising how soon these
youngsters will learn to eat roughage
and grain"
The machinery for the creamery ar
rived from Laramie the first of the week
and is being placed in position by Mr..
Sterzbach. The boiler, watts and refrig-
orator, which are on the road in, will
probably be set up next week.
The equipment for the plant is the
best the market affords in every respect
and the creamery will be one of the
most complete in the west.

We would call the attention Of the

the spectacular production of Alice in

as they had expected. They sold the
tickets on a percentage basis, but dis
posed of very few, SO their receipts
were not large. However the enter
tainment was interesting and meritor-
ious and the committee members say
they do not regret giving it such help
as they could Anyway, they had not
expected to make a large amount but
had counted merely on raising a small
working fund to help them to carry
out their plans for the club house.
