AN EASTER PARTY

A most attractive way 20 send

top OF which has been cut off with
quick blow from a sharp knife.
After the shell Is duly washed
aud dried and the note written on
tissue paper Is inclosod. the top Is
pasted again into place and the

BE sure TO mention the words
Easter opening" IN each note. as
this gives the name OF the party
and the key 20 the fun OF the af-
ternoon.
Another and rather simpler way
to prepare the little recepiacles Is
to blow the contents from the egg
shell and write the words Easter

dress. on the outside.
AT the feast which follows the

Coal mining has been the leading mineral In
dustry the state and will, in all probability,
tnue in the front rank for time though copper is
fast gaining upon it, It had its origin with the
advent of the transcontinenta railroad and has in
creased with the development of the state until to-
day it employs over 10000 workmen and has a pro-
ducton of G.21S,77S tons of coal per annum.
Coal bearing formations undere larger pro-
portion of Wyoming than any other of the Rocky
Mountain states, More than half the coal produced
in Wyoming is Ignite in character. Among the most
important producing are the Hanna fields in
Carbon county, the Rock Springs fields in Sweetwater
county, the Hams Fork field in Uina county and the
Amy field, also in Uinta county. The other field
which has not been reached by railroads, is the
Henry's Fork field, in the southern part of Sweet
water county The Wind River field in Fremont
county, has been tapped by the Chicago & North
western railroad. The extension of the Burlington
route Kirby in Big Horn county, has tapped one
the greatest fields OF coal in the west The coal
formations extend all the entire Big Horn basin
Next to the ranches, and the cowboys, the most
interesting sight Wyoming trip are the freighters
outfits These consist of three four heavy freight
wagons drawn by eight, ten twelve horses
1t costs a railroad on the mountain grades OF the
far west only seveneghths of cent per ton per mile
to haul its freight. In the early days Of the pack
train it uncommon thing to pay 81 per pound
per 100 miles, or 500 per ton per mile. The fare for
passengers between Atchison and Denver (62O miles)
in 1868 was $3.50, or "a cents mile. Messenger
Root or the pony express mentioned one letter that
he handled which had Il twenty-five pony express
stamps of 81 each and twenty-five United States 10
cent stamps
Not the least thing Of interest through central
Wyoming is the four and sxhorse stage coaches that
make their daily trips with regularity and indiffer-
to wind and weather, and fidelity to schedule
that many an eastern railroad might copy with profit

Of its patrons The od-fashioned stage coaches such

Great Sheen Ranches Numerous.

The average ranch has from 5000 to 10000 sheep
ranging, and some as high as 900 A single herder
will take of $500 easy 1000 sheep. All
lambs born in May and generally separated
their mother and put into herd by themselves
about the of October. The sheep herder is an in
teresting character Much loneliness has made him
either morose poetic. While he may have some
shortcomings, the herder is still exceptionally
faithful fellow his personal bravery is seldom ques-
toned in fact, his hermit life to develop in
him certain self-reance that is akin to courage Of
high order
The main harvest time for the average sheepman
is in landing Some very favorable to
this event when increase of from so to 80 per
may be counted An average increase is about
rs per cent but there instances of from 80 95
per increase that have been recorded
The sheepmen have grown numerous and have
waxed wealthy in recent years that they are now
able to meet the cattlemen more than half way. No
doubt the situation among tho stockmen would not
be acute If II not for the steady absorption
OF grazing lands by the homesteader The constant
stream of homesteaders and the consequent fencing
OF the choicest land along the water courses and on
the tracts that could be irrigated resulted in the
greatly restricted range for stock. The cattlemen
awake to the situation and used every means to
retard the advance OF the homeseeker. But nothing
could keep him out
Then came the sheepmen, at first few in number,
trailing their herds across government land. The
profits the sheep business in the last years have
been enormous and there has been a rush to get in
Sheepmen became more numerous and they were
crossing the dead line drawn by the cattlemen. As
a result there were pitched battles in which many
men lost their lives, Generally the sheepmen were
worsted by the hard-hghting cattlemen, but always
there that persistent return to disputed ground,
until step by step. the oattlemen driven back
or forced to compromise with their foes.

Asbestos Deposits Now Being Worked.

Seven miles south OF Casper the range of
mountains running east and west occurs extensive
deposits of crysoe asbestos in the serpentine rock
which is of a greenish color and frequently by
dykes of diorite although dykes of granite and
chist and feldse found, all or less altered
and replaced by quartz. This is known locally as
the serpentine belt and is six seven miles long
easterly and westerly and about a mile wide For
many years these deposits have been known but until
quite recently serious attempt has been made to
develop them. At the present time three companies
working the fields extensively and there seems
to be doubt but that the Casper mountain cryso-
lite asbestos will be in the market as a competitor
of the Canadian product which has long been the
source of supply to the manufacturers of asbestos
goods. An asbestos covering manufacturing house
located at Denver and making pipe coverings and

other asbestos articles compelled heretofore
to purchase the material in Canada, at cost Of
from $3.50 to $500 per ton, and then pay freight
rate of $45 per ton The difference in the freight
rate in favor of Casper is quite substantial and the
material is equal, II not superior, to the Canadian
In addition to three large mining companies which
are organized for the purpose only of extracting the
ore from the mines and fiberizing It, that it will
be condition for by the asbestos manufacturers
many of whom have already made bids for the output
of the mines there has been organized the North
western Asbestos Mills company, for the installation
of proper machinery at the different mines and the
erection in the city of Casper of manufacturing
plant manufacture asbestos yarn for steam packing
coverings cloth, and all sorts of asbestos goods.

Better Bridges and CuIverts.


For several years past much better results have
been secured from expenditure of the road bridge
fund than formerly the case according to Engi-
neer Mcbride In the matter of bridges and culverts
the old wooden structures are being done away with
rapidly possible For the short bridges and for
cuverts concrete is being used all new construc-
ton, and for the long structures the materials are
steel and concrete.
The farmers of Douglas county aroused
on the good roads campaign" said Mr. Mcbride, "and
are willingly using heavy drags supplied by the county
free of cost With every passing year much more and
much better work is bound 10 result on the dirt
roads. until in the course of time we can have all
highways properly built We spending about
100000 year on the dirt roads alone, in paying
overseers and for deep grading and side grading OF
this amount $4,000 is spent the operation Of the
four side graders owned by the county Bridges and
culyerts new work and repairs, cost about $50 900
a year"
Contrary TO the custom in former years the county
engineer now has direct charge of all road bridge
work done under order OF the county board. Deputy
County Engineer Louis f. Adams is in charge of all
the outside work having engineer and two helpers
on his stan During the last year the members OF the
board and the engineers travelled over 900 miles
on road and bridge duty. MIR. Adams has a concrete
crew Of his own, which does all Of that kind on

Wyoming certainly bids fair to play prominent
part the oil industry in the future. The eight
oil fields known in this state present greater
variety of product than any similar area, as
it varies from the highest grade of lubrcating oils
without a of Illuminating constituents to
equally high grade of Illuminating oil With proper
facilities transportation the oil industry in Wyom
ing will equal if not that of any other state
The greatest development is in Natrona county
where lubricatng oil is found which has been pro-
nounced by experts to be the best in the world The
product is hauled from the wells distance of fifty
miles in wagons that have capacity of $4,000
pounds each of wagons requiring twelve to six
teen mules. The product of the producing wells
varies in value from 1Oc to Csc gallon.
Ten miles southeast Of Lander in Fremont county,
is located the PopO Agile oil field. This field
discovered by Bonneville in 1888, and is the place
where the first producing oil well drilled. From
the date of Bonnevilles visit to 1867 the oil spring
was unknown except to hunter tTapper who fire.
