New Brands

Applications for the recording OF
brands from April 1, up to the close
of business Saturday, April &c, ag-
gregated 562, and D. W. Raymond,
secretary Of the state board of stock
commissioners feels certain the total
number of applications for April will
be not less than 600.
They come from every part of the
state" said Mr.. Raymond, from alone o
the Great Northern, from along the
Northern Pacific and from along the
Milwaukee. Since last November
the number of new brands recorded
has averaged not less than GOO a
month.
When the fact is borne in mind
that each application represents a
new settler, an idea is given of how
rapidly the settlement of the state is
taking place. That law providing
for the re-recording of all brands
was just passed in time. When the
time expired last November i'm which
brands could be re-recorded, between
$4,000 and 10000 brands were re-
leased. Then the applications from
new settlers began pouring in, and
had it not been for the brands re-
leased that the office was able to re-
issue. | don't know what would have
happened. Some new method of
identifying livestock would have TO
have been found, for all the available
combinations Of letters and figures
and symbols were exhausted.
1t the rate at which brands are
now being recorded keeps up, in a
few years we will have between 35.-
600 and 10000 live brands on the
books, or as many as there were of
both dead and live brands before the
re-reco:ding law was enacted"

Lovejoy-Malta Road Assured

On Wednesday of this week the
board of county commissioners ac-
companjed by County Surveyor Co.
nant. made a tour of inspection over
the proposed line of road between
Iovejoy and Malta, and found that a
good road could be constructed con-
meeting the two places, and at a
meeting of the Malta Commercial
Club held the same evening at which
Commissioner Atwnod and County
Surveyor Conant were present, the
matter was fully discussed.
Mr.. Atwood stated that the county
stood ready and willing to do their
part in so far as their means would
permit; that the county is willing to
construct the necessary bridges, but
is unable because of the depletion of
the road fund to bear the entire ex-
pense of construction, and suggested
that meeting be held between the
citizens of Lovejoy and Malta, to as
certain whether the citizens of the
two places could formulate some plan
of cooperation for the construction
of this highway. .
The Commercial Club decided that
if the citizens of Lovejoy would be
willing to donate work upon the road,
the business men of Malta would con-
tribute sum of money equal to the
work donated. The club then ap-
pointed a committee of business men
consisting of Messrs. j. f. kilduff.

The Malta people are quite enthus-
iastic over the prospects, and antici-
pate rousing meeting at Lovejoy,
where they have no doubt plans will
be consumated, whereby the road will
be constructed ediately, and the
hopes of the Loyejoy and Malta
people will finally be realized.
