Preserving Fence Posts.

The State Forestry Department, un-
der the direction of the State Forester,
is preparing to conduct demonstra-
tions in the preservative treatment OF
fence posts, at the various fairs now
being held throughout the state Two
outfits, each consisting of a sheet-iron
tank thirty inches deep, and a port
able fire box for heating the same,
have been constructed for this work.
Each outfit will be in charge of a man
who will carry on the actual work of
treating lot of fence posts with gas
tar creosote SO that farmers and other
interested persons who attend these
fairs may learn a simple and practic-
able way of prolonging the life of
post timbers. After treating the posts
they will be given away to anyone
interested in trying them out along
side of the ordinary untreated post.
While not all the fairs throughout
the state can be reached by these
demonstrators, as many as possible
will be visited during the next four
or five weeks-B o. Longyear, Colo

Two animals badly affected with
Brisket Disease and which under ordi.
nary conditions could not have lived
to exceed ten days, were loaded onto
the train at Jefferson. Colo. on Aug
ust 5th and shipped to Denver where
they arrived the following morning,
Both were as badly affected with this
disease as any OF the stockmen have
seen. They were unloaded in the
stock yards in Denver where they
were given no treatment except lit.
tie hay and water.
On the 18th one OF them was en-
tirely we'll and by the 23rd of the
same month the other had recovered.
These animals showed progressive re-
covery from the time they landed in
the yards. Five animals have so far
been shipped under similar conditions
and all have recovered. This would
seem to show that such animals should
be shipped tc lower altitude. The
two animals above mentioned had
