Bitter Range War.

Grand Junction, Colo, March
8. - Information from Cisco, Utah,
received here today is TO the eff
feet that sheep belonging to
ranchers in this section Of COL
orado, but now being ranged in
the vicinity of Cisco, are dying
in great numbers. Owners of
focks now charge that grass on
the range near Cisco has been
poisoned, and specimens have
been sent to Salt Lake for exam
ination by chemists there. 1t is
intimated that cattlemen who op.
pose the presence of sheep on the
Utah ranges are attempting to
rid the country of them by killing
them with poison. All the sheep
owners declare that they will
bring criminal prosecutions if
their suspicious should prove to
be correct.

Loco Weed Poison Solved .

After three years of expert
ment work, an explanation of the
secret poison Of the loco weed
has at last been advanced. Gov
eminent experts have been work.
ing on the subject, representing
the bureau Of plant and animal
industry at Washington. A spec
ial station was set up at Hugo,
Colo, and as a result a bulletin
has now been issued describing
the weed.
The following is the descrip-
ton Of the weed and it's action,
as published in the Record Stock
man:
1T was the pharmachologis in
the laboratory at Washington,
however, who finally discovered
that there existed in the plant
the mineral known as 'barium,' a
poison found in alkali. The sym.
toms of barium poisoning and
loco poisoning are the same. 1t
is only in the weed grown on
a!kali soil that the poison is
found, which accounts for the
fact that cattle have been known
to eat loco without i'll effects.
the discovery Of the nature of
the poison has made it possible
for the experts to suggest reme-
dies.
"Dr. Marsh, who had charge
Of the field work at Hugo, last
summer experimental with rem
edies. He found that most cases
could be cured in cattle by a
course of treatment with strych-
nine, and locoed horses will u.s.
ually be cured with a treatment
OF Fowler's solution. The ad-
ministration Of sulphates, espec-
tally epson salts, changes the
form OF the mineral into an in
solutable sulphate which is not
dangerous.
"0f course the wholesale treat
ment of locoed animals on the
range would not be practicable,
but it is possible with small num-
bers to effect a cure. Animals
|. under treatment must not be al
lowed to eat the loco weed and
should be given food that is nu-
tritious and laxative. Magnesium
sulphate with the food is a valu-
able aid.
! The result Of the investiga-
ton has been n complete success.
There are still some practical
points to be determined, but the
: future work in regard to this
plant will be simple. There is
no doubt but that plans will be
determined whereby the range
cattleman will be able to rescue
his stock when they become
locoed, This practical side Of
the subject should be taken up
by the state experiment station. 4"

ANY GOOD SKATING COMING?
Abilene Young Folks Are Despair
ing of Fine Ice.

The Abilene young folks are almost
discouraged over the prospect fol
good ice skating this year.
Every year there is generally some
fairly good ice skating, Of which the
school children take advantage, but it
is not very often that the river is fro
zen in such manner as to bring the
older people out with their skates.
The Smoky is frozen up for couple
Of days annually so that it will hold a
PERSONS weight and some of the ven,
tursome boys and girls are allowed to
go on after many warnings mot to 60
near the air holes and thin places"
Many will remember the two weeks
OF fine skating on the river about New
Years, 1896, when the old Smoky was
frozen so solid that a herd OF ele-
plants could have played tag on the
ice. 1t was sleek as glass too and on
New Years day about every one in
town who could skate and a goodly
number Of those who could not were
down for time
There is story told that an old
farmer who was driving along the
road, stopping on the bridge to watch
the skaters, became quite interested
in a game of hockey, being played on
the ice. "Why," be said ats been
% years since / was ON skates and
played that game. My last pair of
skates had wooden frames and the
runners turned up at the end like

md show them few turns" Some
me offered to lend him . pair and the
Id man soon had them on. He was
little stiff at first but soOn he was
kating around as lively as anyone.
The last good skating was a couple
{ winters ago when a dam was put
cross the creek ON the Callahan farm s
0rthwest Of town. There was 6ne
kating for week and it was moon

NOTHING YET FROM LAWSON
Boston Buffer Does Not Make
Good on His Bet,

The Abilene push that called Ton
Lawson's offer 10 bet have not hearC
from him. Today they wrote hin
asking him to hurry. They alst
made him some additional PROPOSE
lions:
$25, 900 to $33, 900 that Gov. John
son will not be the Democratic nomi-
nee.
$4,000 to $4,000 that Bryan will
be nominated.
$4,000 to $4,000 that Roosevelt
will not be nominated and elected.
$4,000 to $SS, 900 that they win all
the bets
The Lawrence Gazette takes this
view Of the controversy: In the wild
and woolly days Of the Kansas from
tier, Abilene was the headquarters Of
the short sport and the man with the
swift gun. The sporting blood Of
Abilene has not all been expatriated,
nor has It oozed out. So, when
w. Lawson issued his chal-
lenge to bet a hundred thousand dol
lars that Roosevelt would be nomi-
mated and elected, Abilene dug up
twenty-five thousand plunks and
placed it against the Lawson PROPOSE
ton. And the trouble about Abilene
now is the same as it always was.
When she bets she wants a sure thing;
when she calls she knows the other
lellOw is blufiing.
