though three heavy frosts were re-
corded the fruit was not frozen.
In the fruit districts of Grand

Special weather reports were receiv-

transmitted to the fruit-growers.
1t is little wonder that the per-

has reached a high figure in the belt.
The instrument has proved itself of
incalculable value to the growers,
and any who failed to provide them

many instances where the telephone

The first carload of machinery fol
the plant has already arrived and will
be unloaded with the completion OF
the roof. The machinery consists OF
a number of pieces of heavy tools for
the manufacture of the products OF
the factory. With the installation OF
the machinery Mr.. Lytle hopes to
have a force of men at work operating
things within the course of two or
three weeks.
With the Lytle plant in operation
and it's product successfully placed
on the market it will bring Mitchell
that much more into the limelight as
a center for distribution and manu-
featuring. The Lytle company has
strong influences behind it which will
be of great benefit in advertising its
product and helping to place it on
the market. The first product to be
made is the milking machine, the

thigh bone of the animals that roam
ed over this country that long ago.
They claim that an elephant would
appear about the size of a calf in
comparison to a full grown elephant.
The biologists claim these animals
belonged to the rhinoceros family,
they having three horns on the nose.
Today we spent an hour digging in
a shell bank on the top of a hill. This
shell cropping runs for two miles
along the brakes Of 17-mile creek,
one over the other. The top one is
about three feet thick, and the low
er from a few inches to 5 feet thick.
The top layer is soft water shells and
the lower n Of the salt water var
iety. There is about 100 feet differ
ence between the top and the lower
shells. 1t certainly looks queer to see
such a formation in this country.
Around our camp the ground seems
to be filled with %curios. and the geo.
logical party has taken out tons Of
this stuff and shipped it to Washing
ton to be placed in the museums.
"There is a difference of opinion
in regard to the period when the
coal and the animals were here, but
which one was first seems to all to be
somewhat of a guess, but it looks to
me like they were both here at the
same time or that the wood that
made the coal was destroyed at the
same time the animals were. There
is a layer of clay about 100 feet I'M
der the coal in which the bones are
concealed but l do not think this has
anything to do with the situation, be-
aus it stands to reason that there
were upleavals of the earth before
that time and exposed this formation
This clay when a little wet is abso-
lutely impervious, nothing can pen
citrate 1t, SC If there we're any exposed
places and these animals walked on
it they never got out. 1t is only In
a few places that the bones can be
found here on Hump and White
Shirt Creek for a few miles and in
Wyoming, where the formation is
the same. The members of the geolo-
gical party differ in opinion and put
up an argument that is convincing
both ways, so you see that men who
make a study of these things have
to guess at some of them. The thing
that stalls some Of them is the petri-
fed wood on the upper end of Dirt
Lodge creek. These small streams
are close together and have the petri-
fed wood at one place and coal at
another"

zee w. E. Upton was elected presi-

The other members of the COMMITTEES

The committee will at once take
up the work that is before it and
push it to a conclusion, and take on
other matters that come before 1t.
With strong assurances of support
that were given at the luncheon.
when nearly 100 men signed their
names to make a contribution of S.
per year as members, and the further
assurance that at least 200 or 800
more men will join the committee on
the same basis, the committee feels
that it will be able to accomplish
much for the city during the COM
ing year.
This new committee is entitled to
and should receive the hearty sup
port and cooperation of not only
all the business men but the citizens
as we'll. Even though a man may
not be engaged in some mercantile
trade, yet whatever comes to Mitch
ell and helps make the city larger
adds to the value of every piece Of
property and the non-business man
receives a certain amount of benefit
from what the committee accomplish
es and or that basis should do what
ever lies in his power to push thinga
along, and the opportunities are
many.

ErlnoN FOR new BRIDGE
People West of the River Going AT
ter Milwaukee Company to Build
New t5ridge.

People living west OF the Missouri
river have started a petition hat
way addressed a petition to t48AUArd
of railroad commissioners asking
them to take initiatory steps toward
compelling the Chicago, Milwaukee
& st. Paul road to build a new bridge
acros the Missouri river at Chamber
lain. Ever since the pontoon bridge
was put in at two seasons of the year
the people on the west side of the
river have been cut off from sup
plies on the eastern half of the state
by reason of the bridge either being
carried out by high water at one sea-
o or by the ice at another time.
The petition is now being %circulat-
ed and in it the grievances are set
forth as the basis on the request
made of the commissioners. Inform
alton has leaked out several times
from the Chicago headquarters that
a new steel bridge was to be con-
structed across the river, but it has
not appeared and now the western
people are going to try and interest
the railroad commissioners in the
situation. The following is the petit
ton that is now in circulation:
We, the undersigned resident, vot-
ers and tax payers and patrons of
the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul
Railway company and especially that
portion of said road known as the
White River Valley Division of said
road, respectfully petition the Hon.
orable 4.ailroad and Warehouse Com
mission to use all honorable means
possible in bringing about and
said railway company
to construct, erect and establish
and maintain a permanent steel
at a point where said road
crosses the Missouri River, at Cham
berlain. S. d., for the reason hat
ing the year the wooden bridge now
in use by said company is torn out,
by the reason Of floating ice
and high water, which puts all
freight traffic out of commission for
a period of from ten days to one
month, until again said bridge Is re-
by the company and during
time it is wholly impossible to
any freight on said road west
of the Missouri river; that when said
is in repair and used for all
purposes of traffic, il is even then I'M
safe and dangerous to the lives and
limbs of all persons crossing the same
trains of said company for the rea-
son that this bridge is always more
or less in a dilapidated condition,
that it may collapse at any time with
. train load of people while crossing
the same, and to this end we petition
said board.

TELEPHONE SAVES FRUIT
Out in Colorado They Build Smudge
Fires to Drive Away the Frost
From Fruit Orchards.

Fruit raisers in the irrigated dis.
ttricts of Colorado are much elated
over the success with which weather
conditions have been met in their or
chards this spring. The telephone
has been instrumental in fighting OF
three frosts, the effects of which
would undoubtedly have been fatal
to the crops had not extra precau-
tions been taken. The story of how
the vigilance of the fruit raisers was
rewarded reveals a new and interest
ing triumph Of scientific agriculture.
The instance in question are re-
ported from Canon City, in the ranch
section of Colorado. The fruit inter-
ests there are extensive, and the an
nual crop is of great value. 1t has
long been the custom to fight frost
with smudge fires in the orchards.
When the temperature drops below
freezing point it is always necessary
to resort to artificial means to pre-
vent damage. Accordingly the all
important question with the fruit
growers is the weather.
The Canon City telephone exchange
was of great assistance to the ranch
men this year. Daily weather reports
we're given out to about Is fruit
growers and several hundred inquir-
les were received every day from
others interested in the weather pre-
dictions.
On Monday, April 10th, the Bust
ness Mems Association of Canon City
prepared a list Of 200 citizens to as
sist in the work OF safeguarding the
fruit crop. The volunteers we're scat
tered over the various orchards and
an organized system of protection
was put in operation. Each mans
telephone number was secured, so
that he might be called upon when
needed. Two wltchmen were appoint
ed, one to take up his position on the
north side of the city and the other
at the southern end. These men were
to keep tab on the temperature dur
ing the night and report each hour to
the night operator at the telephone
exchange.
The fruit-growers had agreed that
as soon as the temperature dropped
to 20 degrees the alarm to smudge
would be given. The smudge alarm
in the orchards differs very little
from an alarm Of fire IN the city. The
moment the word has been passed
over the wires men are e e hurry
ing about to and from stations and
soon the fires are lighted in all the
ranches.
In some places crude oil is used fol
the fires. Smudging in this section
has worked wonders. The temper.
