ELK AND CATTLE STARVING
Stockmen All Though the West Are
Nearly at the End of Their Re.
sources, No Help in Sight

Heavy losses of elk in the high
mountain valleys south of the Yel-
loWstone Park, are mingled with re-
ports OF losses of domestic animals
from cold and lack of feed.
Last year the state of Wyoming
expended several thousand dollars to
feed the elk in Jackson's Hole. con-
slderlng them worth something like
four million dollars to the state. This
year the elk are giving the settlers
great deal of trouble, breaking
down their fences and eating the hay
they need for their own stock. They
appear In such great numbers that
fences and guards are unavailing.
and personal and public losses are
likely to be heavy.
Cattlemen at, Tilden and Otis are
about out of hay, and some of the
herds are in almost hopeless condi-
tion. Harry Hamilton has moved
most of his cattle to Thomas, where
he secured some hay and hopes to
bring them through.
Jake Baird has a large number at
his ranch at Tildea, and expected to
feed the last load of his hay today.
Mr.. Colborn who had the best feed |
supply of anybody is reported losing
many cattle now. ]. s. Watson has
nearly 400 head of cattle, and has al
most reached the limit of feed. John
Coumerilh is buying hay at American
Falls at SIS a ton, and it is reported
here that he is having much of it
hauled to the cattle, distance of
some twenty-five miles.
The snow lies deep on the Snake
liver plains and nothing but a Chi
nook wind of long duration will un-
'over the grass soon enough to af-
ord any relief. 1t is being observed
~ old residents that when the snow
les SO deep as spring approaches,
he tendency is to have a cold back ,
Vard spring, and this condition, if it |
ontinues makes the case a hopeless :
ne for the stockmen whose feed is
bout exhausted. A strong Chinook y
lind for afew days, some flood wat y
rs, few bright days to tempt the q
ungry cattle far out on the plains, =
nd March blizzard are matters to +
feared with the most hopeful out h
,ok. However, it does not always Il
lrn out that way, and spring wealth a
sometimes comes in February and
)ntinues. =

SOME FINE APPLES

Henry McMillen brought a very
fine Wealthy apple to town to exhi-
bit at the farmers institute and many
people inquired how he had packed
1t to preserve it so we'll. He surpris-
ed them by informing them that he
had others where that came from
and could fill orders at 50 a bushel
If they cared for them.
Mr.. McMillen lives on route 4 and
he kept the apples in their beauty
and delicious flavor by packing them
In sand.

Trout Season
Opens May |.
Fifteen Days Later In Upper Peninsula
Than Last Year. In Other Res
poets Law Is Unchanged.

A number of upper peninsula papers
among them the SENTINEL, have re-
Gently printed articles, evidently eman-
ating from the lower peninsula, to the
effect that the brook trout season will
open April Is. Anglers who place too
much faith in these stories will get IN
bad with the game wardens, as the
season does not open this year until
May /.
Last year the trout season opened
April Is in the upper peninsula as well
as in the lower, and closed Aug. Is.
There was some very strenuous bowling
done by upper peninsula fishermen, for
the reason that the first fifteen or twen-
ty days of the open season were ab-
solutely no benefit to them, while the
season closed just when the fishing was
at its best. Because of this the legis-
lature has made an exception in favor
of the upper peninsula, and the season
hereafter will open May l and close
Sept. as it did previous to last year,
fifteen days later in each instance than
in the lower peninsula.
There is no trout fishing north of the
straits as early as April Is. In many
cases the ice has not left the streams
at that time, and if the water is free
from ice it is by no means free from
the chilling effects, and fish are sluggish
and refuse to bite, even should an angler
trisk cramps, pneumonia, neuralgia and
host of kindred ailments to go in quest
of them.
May is early enough for the upper
peninsula opening, fishermen claim, and
Sept. is late enough for the closing.
The season should be at least fifteen
days later here than in the lower1pen-
insula, and the trout viii not suffer
from the change, as the spawning sea
son is correspondingly late. MI
The usual rules apply to trout fish
ing this year. 1t is unlawful to have
brook trout, landlocked salmon, gray
ling, /speckled, California, Loeb Leven
and steelhead trout under seven inches
in ones possession. 1t is unlawful to
take any of the above fish from stocked
streams within four years after stock
ing, and it is unlawful to sell brook
trout or grayling. The close season
for bass extends from Feb. Il to June
Is, inclusive.
! The closed season for bear, otter, fish
er, marten, fox, mink, raccoon and
skunk begins April and continues until
Nov. l. The closed season for muskrats
begins April Is and continues until
Feb. 1. The season for reed head, but
terball and sawbill duck opened March z
and will continue until April 25. The
ban on Mongolian or English pheasants,
wild turkey, hazel grouse and wild
pigeons, according to the game Law
synopsis of 1909, is raised this year.

Those Drastic
Motor Boat Laws.
Motor Boatists Claim New Legislation
Is Drastic. Laws Pass Senate.

Whether power boats will have IL
censed pilots and engineers and be in
spected like steamboats, by the federal
government are among the questions
that are being discussed with great
deal of interest this week. There are
large number of launches and small
craft in this part of the country and
considerable legislation which the launch
owners say will oppress them, has been
passed recently.
A bill passed the senate on January
25 last, with little or no opposition, and
is now before the house committee on
merchant marine and fisheries. The
: bill provides:
''Sec. /. That every vessel propelled
by machinery shall carry life-preserv-
ers of kinds approved by the board of
supervising inspectors, so that there
shall be at least one for each person on
board.
Sec. 2. That all life-preservers
shall be slowed that their position may
be known, and that they may be readi-
ly accessible to those for whom they
are intended.
''Sec. 8. That for any violation of
this act the vessel shall be liable to a
penalty of one hundred dollars for each
such life-preserver lacking or improper
ly slowed"
This bill, if passed, will take effect
June l, 1910, and will apply to all gaso-
line launches, large or small, whether
carrying passengers for hire or not. 1t
would even include power canoes. The
life-preservers would easily occupy half
the seating capacity of power canoes.
