How Prize Lambs Were rea.

F. E. Bryant of the Pecos valley,
New Mexico, exhibited a load of lambs
at the recent international stock show
and took first prize on them, demon
strating to his countrymen that he
knows how to grow good ones. The
lambs were dropped early in March,
the mothers being Gull ewes past their
usefulness on the range. They had
been put on alfalfa pasture in the fall
before. Through the summer the
lambs were on pasture with the ewes
until they were weaned August Is.
From that time ON they were fed green
COW peas and other green feeds and
alfalfa hay in the feed lot. They were
finished on corn, alfalfa, hay, beets
and other root crops. Mr.. Bryant gave
the feeding his personal attention and
the result shows that he knew his bus
mess. The lambs were eight days or
the trip to Chicago and won first out
of sixteen entries. They averaged 116
pounds.

TAYLOR S SOLDIERS At
ISABEL

There is justice in the claim of
the good people of Isabel that the
bones of Gen. Taylor's men who died
or were killed in the war with Mexi-
co and lie buried near that place
should be permitted to remain
where they are. and the spot
suitably marked It is doubtless
true, as Isabel people claim, that
that many more of these dead Am
erican patriots were buried there
than those whose remains have be
come exposed by the washing away of
the soil from the embankment under
which they lie 1t issequally true that
should the war department decide
to remove the bones of those which
are uncovered. there may be many
more which will remain lost in the
soil, unmarked and neglected.
To acquire the ground which has
been hallowed by furnishing a rest
ing place for these heroes, and CON
vert it into national cemetery,
marking the spot with suita-
BILE monument. would probably cost
comparatively little. This would in
sure that the memory of all of the
soldiers who lie there would be COM
memorated-none neglected While
it may be more economical to remove
such bones to the national cemetery
at Fort Brown, yet the entire cost
of making the arrangement proposed
by the citizens of Isabel would be
small.

Slaughter of Birds.

By killing insect-eating birds Amer

hitting an annual crop loss of $780,
600, 900 according to William butcher,
president of the National Association
of Audubon Societies If we permit
the heritage of wild birds that still ex-
list to be further wasted and destroyed,
we are robbing our children, declared
Mr.. butcher The people, as trustees.
are in honor bound to preserve these
wild birds for those that follow us. We
do not wish our children to feel about
us as we do about our fathers, who
permitted the wanton and useless ex-
tinction of the bison and the wild pig
con. In the matter of bird legislation
there is no resting place; the only,
price of satisfactory bird protection is
eternal watching of legislatures, for In
an unguarded moment an amendment
may be passed that will undo the work
of wears.

REDUCED RATE FROM
NEVADA ORE CANT'S

On Saturday the Oregon Short Line
Co made the announcement that on
next April , new rate will go into
effect on ores shipped from the Gold
field and Tonopah mining camps TO
Salt Lake shelters. the rate touching
ores of a certain grade only. Rock
ranging from $40 to $50 will be car
ried for s. per ton less than the
present rate. while ores ranging from
$40 to 500 per ton will be trans
ported for 30 cents less per ton than
the present schedule.
The purpose of this reduction. II H.
stated. is TO encourage the develop
ment of properties. and the ship
ments of ores that are now ready
for the market. II remains To be
seen. however, whether the reduction
Is generous enough TO stimulate ore
shipments. for the Nevada miner has
about come TO the conclusion that on
the lower grade OF ores II is cheaper
to mill his rock rather than ship it
10 the smelters. Local circles hope
that this reduction will encourage
shipments TO Salt Lake valley smelt-
ers. as no small quantity of such ores
have been sent TO the Selby plant in
preference to Utah.
