Stockmen generally and sheep men especially have been greatly aggrivated by an article written by Will c. Barnes, chief of the office of control in the Forest Ser vice branch of grazing, for Me Clures magazine, claiming that the facts have been grossly misrepre- sented, as is indicated by two pie lures. Mir. Barnes claims one pie ture, showing great erosion, to rep- resent an over grazed area. and an- other purporting to show the same area after two years of regulated garzing. The one picture shows ground badly washed and practical
 ly treeless, while the other shows trees from ten to twenty years old which he infers were grown in two years. While no one questions reasonable grazing regulations, such extremes by government otil- cials only tend to convince stock men that there is marked prejudice against them and that their cases have been settled to all intents and purposes in advance.

In an interview a vice president of the New York Central railroad says it is absolutely necessary to either raise rates. reduce the wag- es of employe or go into bankrup- cy. If the honored president had the perspieuity O examine the baggage of some o f the high officials of the road, he might find some excess luggage that had been accumulated by a diversion of profits from h Q stock holders. The little fat side issues are usual ly worth more than the salaries or all the profits on the stock they ev- CT hold.

Dr. Levi Seeley's leture Friday evening on Who is Responsible for the Education of the Child?' at the Normal hail was well at tended. It was entertaining as we'll as instructive and contained many points of interest relative to education of their children. He very rightfully contended that 1t was the duty of the teacher to instruct the child how to do things. but it was the duty of parents to see that a certain amount of work was accomplished, since school hours were exceedingly short.
 Dr. Seeley is a pleasant talker and enlivened his subject with many witty remarks concerning school life in general. He will lecture again this evening, and a cordial invitation is extended to the public to hear him
