GRAZING DECISION AFFIRMED

United States Attorney Carl Rasch of
Montana, has notified Clifford Pinchot,
Chief of the United States Forest Ser.
vice, that the United States Circuit
Court of Appeals at San Francisco, has
! affirmed the decision of Judge Hunt in
the grazing trespass case instituted by
the Government against Thomas shan
| non.
No copy of the decision has yet been
received by the Forest Service, but it is
believed that it forbids stockmen to al
low their cattle to drift upon the Nation
al Forests, and that the National For
ests need not be fenced to prevent such
drifting, although the state laws may
make such fencing necessary for private
lands.
In December, 1904, Shannon allowed
his cattle to drift upon the Little Belt
National Forest in Montana. To put a
stop to this, suit was brought by the
United States, and on March Is, 1907,
Judge Hunt, in the United States Cir
cult Court, for that State, rendered de-
cision In favor Of the Government, and
issued an injunction perpetually re-
strainlng Shannon from allowing his
cattle to drift upon the Forests. Mon
tana has fence law by which land own
ers must fence their lands before they
can obtain redress from stockmen whose
cattle, feeding upon the open public do
main, range upon and ihjure the private
lands.
Shannon's counsel argued that this
state law should apply as against the
United States, but Judge Hunt held that
the power of Congress over the public
lands, including the National Forests, is
complete; that Congress has lawfully
delegated to the Secretary Of Agriculture
the authority to make regulations to pro-
tect the Forest; that the Secretary had
properly made regulation that cattle
must not range upon the Forests with
out permit, and that consequently Shan
non was a trespasser when he allowed
his cattle to drift upon the Little Belt
Forest, although it was unfenced.
shannon appealed from this decision,
and as Montana is in the 9th Federal
Judicial Circuit, which embraces most
of the Rocky Mountain and Pacific
states, his appeal was heard by the
United States Circuit Court of Appeals
for the 9th Circuit. sitting at San Fran
cisco. The Court has now affirmed
Judge Hunts decision, and this judg-
ment is binding upon all Federal courts
in the Circuit. A similar case is pend
ing in the United States Circuit Conrt
for Colorado, which is in the Sth Cir
cult.

found that the sound proceeded from
the burrowing owl. which lives in the
burrows of the prairie dog, often, it is
said, in company with the rattlesnake.
Seated on a post the party heard the
owl give a third rattle. And whenever
they passed the spot it gave warning

The Farmers Wife

Is very careful about her churn. She
scalds it thoroughly after using, and gives
Il a sun bath to sweeten it. She knows
that IL her churn is sour it will taint the
butter that is made in it. The stomach is
a churn. In the stomach and digestive
and nutritive tracts are performed pro-
cesses which are almost exactly like the
churning of butter. Is it not apparent
then that if this stomach-churn is foul 1t
makes foul all which is put into IL?
The evil of foul stomach is not alone
the had taste in the mouth and the foul
breath caused by it, but the corruption OF
the pure current of blood and the diSsem-
iuation of disease throughout the body.
DIR. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
makes the sour and foul stomach sweet.
It does for the stomach what the washing
and sun bath do for the churn-absolutely
removes every tainting or corrupting ele-
ment. In this way it cures blotches,
pimples, eruptions, scrofulous swellings,
sores, or open eating ulcers and all
humors or diseases arising from bad blood.
If you have bitter, nasty, foul taste In
your mouth, coated tongue, foul breath,
are weak and easily tired, feel depressed
and despondent, have frequent headaches,
dizzy attacks, gnawing or distress in stom-
ach, constipated or irregular bowels, sour
or bitter risings after eating and poor
appetite, these symptoms, or any consider
able number of them, indicate that you are
suffering from biliousneSs, torpid or lazy

THE STUPID SWAN.
Graceful and Beautiful, the Bird Is .
Nincopooop

Nincompoop.
To the mind Of the average farmer
nothing which walks on two legs Is
quite so stupid as hen. He Is mis-
taken, though, for there still remains
that beautiful, graceful nincompoop,
the common swan. The swan is so
stupid that it will stand in the shallow
part of a pond and allow the water to
freeze round its legs till the ice Is so
thick that 1t cannot lift its feet and 1t
is stuck fast. Not infrequently owners
Of these handsome but witless birds
are compelled to chop away sufficient
ice to make it possible for them to
withdraw their imprisoned feet.
The stupidity Of the swan In this
respect is emphasized by the intelli-
gence exhibited by ornamental ducks
when the weather turns cold. AS
night comes on and the water begins
to freeze the ducks begin swimming
in q wide, we'll defined circle. Round
and round they go during the entire
night. keeping all the water within
that circle free from ice, so that when
the day dawns they can float about
and doze in the sun. Ducks are al
ways most active during the night and
choose the day for sleeping.
But to return to the swan. If you
find one Of these birds some distance
from the water and startle it, the swan
will rush few feet toward the pond
and then drop down on the ground and
try to 60 through the motions Of swim
ming, apparently unable in its fright
to realize that 1t has not yet reached
the water.
Neither is the common swan a good
fighter. The black swan, although
one-half its size, is invariably the VIC
tor in the combats which are some
times engaged in and generally kills
its antagonist. The black swan usually
provokes the fight, too, for It Is rather
q auarrelsome bird.-Washington Star.

Rational Pneumonia Treatment

The most successful physi.
clans are now treating pneu-
monia by the application of coun-
ter-irritants. They are learning
to resist the temptation to doctor
the cough, which, after all, is
only natures effort to relieve
herself, and are endeavoring to
reach the seat of the congestion
without the use of internal RENE
dies.
Some are using preparations
about as pleasant to the patient
as an application of mud or put
ty, but the wisest use a pleasant
liquid counter-irritant.
The ideal remedy is Noah's
Liniment. It's carefully COM
pounded ingredients possess
wonderful powers Of penetration
and Immediately reduce the in
tiammation and congestion.
Noah's Liniment is absolutely
harmless, and can be used freely
without consultation with a
physician. Apply the liniment
freely over the point of pain or
congestion. Saturate a hot fan
mel and keep it applied to that
portion of the body. The effect
will be almost immediate, and in
many cases the threatened pneu-
monia will be dispelled before a
physician can be secured.
Best for rheumatism, sciatia,
lame back, stiff joints and
muscles, sore throat, cold S,
strains, sprains, cuts, bruises,
collie, cramps, etc. For internal
and external aches and pains
Nolh's Liniment has no equal.
