FAIR PLAY IS
ALL They WANT
WYOMING WOOL GROWERS SAY
HARDsHIPs ARE WORKED ON
THEM BY RULING.
NOEvIDENCE0F DISEASE
CLAIM SHEEP LEAVE RANGE
FREE FROM DISEASE BUT
ARE oUARANTINED.

Cheyenne. Wyo.-The sheepmen of
central and northern Wyoming are
up in arms over the action of inspect
ors of the bureau OF animal industry
at Omaha, and claim they are being
unjustly prosecuted.
Shippers claim that although their
sheep leave the range free from dis.
ease. are passed as clean at the load
ing points and at the feed-in-transit
stations in Nebraska they are con-
signed to the hog yards and quaran-
tine pens upon arrival at South Oma-
ha. because a few sore-mouthed lambs
are found. The sheepmen claim that
these sore-mouthed lambs are nothing
new. and scarcely a shipment has
gone to market in the last twenty-five
years that has not contained some
sore-mouthed lambs.
In pointing out the injustice to Wy
oming sheepmen. the shippers say
sore-mouthed lambs are received in
shipments from Montana, Idaho, Ore
gon. Utah. Colorado and other west
ern states. are passed as clean. are
not placed in the hog yards or quaran-
tined areas. and that IL those animals
are free from disease and are accept
ed. then the Wyoming shipments
should be accorded the same treat
ment. II sores on the mouths Of
lambs Is a disease. and it is neces-
sary to quarantine the animals and
the section of Wyoming from which
they were received. then there is not
section of the United States where
sheen are grown that is free argue
the Wyoming shippers.
The Wyoming and National Wool
Growers associations have taken the
matter up with Secretary Wilson and
Chief Melvin Of the bureau of animal
industry in the hope that relief will
be forthcoming soon. The Wyoming
sheepmen say the work of the federal
inspectors at South Omaha costs them
one to two cents per pound on all NUT
ton marketed there.

FREAK in sEQUoIA FOREST
Tree Trunk That Has Stood for Six
teen Years Severed From
Its Base.

Out n California there is tree
trunlS which has stood for the last 16
years entirely severed from It's base,
says the Wide World Magazine. The
stump is Is feet in diameter. and the
trunk towers rs feet in the air. This
remarkable freak is located near the
Sequoia forest reserve in Tulare coun-
ty, California. and was sawn on by
lumbermen for timber. Through some
miscalculation, when the cut was I'm
ished the tree still held its position.
and dynamite was resorted to to bring
1t to the ground. which accounts for
the deep cash on one side. After the
first charge OF the explosive had been
ignited the tree still remained stand
ing, and 1t was discovered that the
entire trunk had been shattered by
the discharge and was therefore use
less for lumber. Accordingly, the
work was stopped and the giant has
remained upright, withstanding some
of the severest wind storms that the
state has known, held in its natural
position by its great weight.

termination to put money into this
section is the story of Woodworking
placer miner, c. A. La Point, who
spent years in the placer mines OF the
West. He had the usual ups and
downs of the average miner-mostly
downs. However, he stuck to 1t and
kept formulating schemes for increas-
ing the returns from his labor. Some
time since. while working on Snake
river he became convinced that most
of the gold passed through his sluice
boxes. and Immediately began expert
menting for the purpose OF finding a
way to stop the metal that was escap-
ing him.
He found that by raising the rifles
I'm his boxes he retained more gold,
and with a crude arrangement made
OF barrel slaves he constructed a box
with the rifles suspended about an
inch above the carpet. The result was
an Increase of three or four times the
amount of gold retained In the boxes

took out patents on his invention.
Meanwhile Crumlish had disposed OF
large business interests in the East
and came to Colorado for recreation
and to look around. Through friend
he was induced to examine la Points

The net result Is that Crumlish has
taken leases on large tracts OF placer
mining lands in this section. arranged
for the manufacture of the machines.
and will shortly install several large
plants In various sections and develop
hitherto Improbable placer claims on
an extensive scale.
