Geo. w. Mcclellan lost one of his
large work horses Tuesday night. The
horse was used some during the day and
had a sick spell but at night the driver
thought him all right and left the gate
open so that he could go out and Craze.
In the morning the horse was found dead
in an alley down town.
Fred Harris, a settler north, received a
car OF brood mares the past week. They
were picked up in Chicago, animals that
had become broken down from con-
tinuous hard work on the truck wagons.
1t is expected that the nutritious grasses
of the North Dakota range will rejuve-
nate the mares and make them profitable
for their owner.
VIM. Suddards of Jeremiah Williams
Co., formerly with Justice, Bateman Co.,
was returning east Tuesday night from
Miles City, where he had purchased a
large quantity of wool for his house. Mr..
Suddards said that the price had kept
well around the IL and I8c. mark, the
highest figure of the season being 1886.
The total amount marketed this year at
Miles City is about 100000 lbs.
1t will probably be of interest to a
number Of our ranch readers to know
that the town of Evarts, S. d., the larg-
est cattle shipping center east of the
Missouri river, will cease to exist August
1. When the Milwaukee road decided
to extend to the coast, the only suitable
place to cross the Missouri was found
several miles north of Evarts, and there
the town of Mobridge was started. The
road offered the people of Evarts any
site IN the extension, and the moving
commenced. Many people moved their
buildings to Glenham or Mobridge, and
in a few days not even tracks will be
seen there.
Paris & Co., July 28:-To-day's receipts
of westerns are estimated at 1000 in Ia
total of 5000. The market is very slow
and dull owing to the very heavy receipts
of natives yesterday. Owners of com
fed cattle get out of corn, can't get any
more and have to ship. This will tend
to make corn cattle scarcer later in the
season. The corn crop is improving
rapidly, and if it continues to6o,s So feed
ers may be in better demand later: We
do not advise shipping cattle that are
only feeders now if there is any chance
Of their getting in beef condition by. hold
ing. There are some North Dakota
feeders here to-day. Many Of to-day's
cattle are unsold at this writing"
1t certainly looks as though: the disease
of CHAMBERS in horses was getting to be a
serious matter in the western part Of the
state. On Thursday two, horses belong
ing to E. f. Cook were condemned'a and
shot by DR.. F. w. Anderson. Mr.. Cook
resides IS miles southwest. DR.. Ander-
son had just returned from a trip 20
miles north of Taylor, where he killed a
