the town. The poles to be con-
fined to the alleys and to certain

chase the plant at its physical
cost, less depreciation by use and
deterioration.
Whether the light company will
accep, the conditions in the ordi-
nance and renew its charter or not

lett says it will take good deal of
figuring TO determine this ques-
ton.

There are about 800 cars Of
sheep and lambs on feed in the
valley this winter and the weather
conditions have been excellent.
There has been no snow 10 yet
which has allowed the stock 70 run
in the pen fields and take on fat.
The valley men were judicious In
putting in lambs and sheep in the
fall and did not overload. Tho
markets have been rather
a disappointment TO shippers thus
far.
