H. F. Cook this week bought for
$4,000 the lot adjoining Penley's
feed store. We understand Mr.. Cool
will tear down the shack which now
stands on the lot and erect in its
place a modern business building.
We are also informed from reli-
able source, that a little later on,
If not at once, Mr.. Penley will go
in with Mr. Cook and raise his build
ing another story, which can easily
be done, the walls and foundation
of the present structure being built
sufficiently heavy for that purpose.

son National Forest of Colorado.
l.l95 acres, from the Cochetopa
Forest, 5,64O acres. and from the
Uncompahgre Forest, As ,4S9 acres.
The eliminations are the result of
very careful examination made
by the Secretary of Agriculture last
summer. which shows that the areas
excluded are not needed for forest
or watershed protection.
The lands excluded from the Gun
nison comprise several strips from
one-half mile to a mile in width. To-
Gated along the exterior boundaries
of the western portion of the
forest and embracing particularly.
lands which have agricultural posi-
bilities. The most extensive and I'M
portant of the changes effects the
lands lying along the western boun-
dairy of the North fork of the Gun
nison river. and along Minnesota
and Reynolds creeks. Also few
sections have been eliminated along
Smiths fork and Crystal Creek.
The unappropriated pcrtions
of the areas eliminated from the
National Forests by these proclama-
tions will be restored to settlement
and entry after having been adver-
tised in the local papers by the Sec
retary of the Interior.
