of the board and management of the

DENVER MARKET BOOMING.

DENVER UNION STOCK YARDS,
Dec. 7.-Another big run of cattle
was received here last week, $1,000
head arriving. Trade was brisk
from the start and everything sold in
short order. Prices closed 10 to 15c
higher and in some cases even more.
Several punches of good steers
brought $4.95 to $50 and most
good killers went at $4.25 and better.
The A. X. Mari COWS from North
Park brought $4.10 and the Hunter
cows brought $3.50. Ihe Tom Mower
cows from Delta sold today at $4.25.
Most of the good to choice cows Of
Ifered last week sold at 1886 to
$3.50 and the fair to good at $2.S5
to 1925. Feeding cows brought
$2.00 to $275, according to quality,
the good feeding cows being in best
demand. Bulls sold at $2.25 to
$2.75, about steady. Veal calves a
quarter higher, tops bringing SAID.
Good to choice feeders and stockers
sold at $4.00 to $4-60 and fancy
stuff on up. Fair to good grades
went mostly at 1886 to $500. Few
cattle were forwarded from this
market in first hands as shippers
realize that prices paid here are
higher than those prevailing at the
river markets. A few lunches were
sent on and almost invariably the
shipper could have realized more fol-
them here.

MORE SHEEP ON SAWTOOTH RE
SERVE.

WASHINGTON, Dec. "A misun-
derstanding, which officers of the
forest service consider very regret
table, has arisen in the state Of Idaho
In regard to the number of sheep to
be grazed on the Sawtooth national
forest during the season of 1909, and
1t has taken several long kilograms
between Governor Gooding and Gift
ford Pinchot to explain matters.
Last year the total number al
lowed was 34S,000, of which but
I321, ,OVu sheep were actually grazed
on .nls forest. The allotment for
the present season was $4,000 or
1850 more than actually grazed
last year. In anticipation of demand
for range from new owners, sliding
scale was prepared and the super
visor was instructed to reduce the
large owners on the basis of this scale
in order to provide range for new APP
plicants and other persons entitled to
share in it's use who did not use 1t
last season. The publication of this
sliding scale has been accepted by
Governor Gooding as an indication
that a reduction has been made In the
total number of sheep allowed.
In his last telegram Governor
'Gooding concludes by asking, Have
the sheepmen of Idaho, from their
figures, not right to believe it is
your intention 20 destroy their indus
Itry?"
Answering this the forester says:
"The ten thousand limit does not
mean that large permits will be re-
duced to that number but simply pre-
vents increase by purchase beyond
ten thousand. If Idaho sheepmen
object to protection of small owners
in this way take issue with them.
"The forest service has worked
consistently and effectively for the
permanent prosperity of sheep indus.
try throughout the west by enforce
ment of regulations necessary to
protect range and right of others
Where reductions are necessary fol
these purposes they will be made
Idaho sheepmen have no justification
whatever for assumption that un'
necessary reductions will be made OF
that the forest service is attempting
to destroy their industry"
There has been no further ex'
change of views on the subject be-
tween the woolgrowers and Officers
of the forest service. Meanwhile, the
sheepmen of Idaho will go ahead and
