PROTECT THE ORCHARDS.

All through the northern states the snow lies deep in many sections. This means that the .ozchards are in espe- cal danger of injury from rabbits whose ether food supplies are made inaccessible by the heavy blanket of snow. And as the winter advances the hunger of these ever present pests increases. making the likelihood of damage by them the greater. If the rees have Bof been protected and the nbbits have began their work of de- Uruetion. radical measures shoulh be adopted.

 In many sections in the north cen tral states. where much wheat used to be grown a score of years ago. but where in recent years 1t has been al- most entirely given up. there will be a good deal sown the present spring. In many of these localities oats are not doing as we'll as in the past. and wheat is proving an acceptable substi- tute. Where 1t has been tried the yield has been from eighteen to thirty five bushels Der acre. and the market price dollar or better In securing the seed wheat it is a good idea to buy that which is plump and Is grown near home

 One of the interesting geological for nations of Wyoming is the extensive areas of decomposed red granite no- uceable between Cheyenne and Buford. on the line of the Union Pacific.
