Cattle and Horses Gaining.

A report issued today from for
estry headquarters shows that
during the fiscal year 1915, end
ing in June, 670,5S1 head of live
stock we're grazed under permit
on the national forests of Wyom-
ing, under the jurisdiction of the
Denver Office. OF this number,
91067 we're cattle and horses and
579,5l4 were sheep.
The report shows that, while an
increase of twenty per cent was
made in the grazing fees for cat
tie and horses at the beginning
of the 1915 grazing season, there
was an increase of twelve and a
half per cent in the number OF
sheep on the Wyoming forest
ranges during the year, showing
an obvious tendency to change
from sheep to cattle.
The number of cattle and horse
permittees increased nineteen pei
cent over last year. Of the 1,035
permits issued for this class Of
stock, the report shows that eighty
per cent were issued to small
stockmen and rsnchers running
less than 100 head of stock. This
is an increase of about thirty,tw
per cent in the number of permit.
tees of this class over 1914.

Kincaid. Scott Party.

Mrs. Frank White gave a birth
day party on Thursday to her
grand daughter, Mary Kincaid,
and incidentally, the birthday of
@. w. Scott being the same day,
the party was made to do double
service and both Miss Mary KIN
caid and Mr.. Scott enjoyed a fine
party. About 40 were present,
most of which were little people.
Miss Mary was eve years of age,
and while Mr.. Scott don't look it,
he is 20, and many say he acts
younger. However, from all &C.
counts all had a delightful time,
and the sumptuous lunch served
before the guests departed. Mr.
Scott says that he will look for
ward to the next birthday with
great pleasure, if it affords the
pleasure the last one did.

members,

Chas. 81. Hansen passed to his
reward on Wednesday night last
week, as announced in these col
umns last publication. Death was
due to typhoid fever, and had run
a duration of about three weeks.
He died in the Rawlins hospital,
where he was taken when he first
took sick.
He was buried from the Mason
ic Temple in Rawlins Sunday af-
ternoon at 2 o'clock by the Mason
10 fraternity, of which he was a
member, including the Shrine,
Knights Templar and Consistory,
He was also a member of the Elks
Lodge of Rawlins. The body was

The Beverly Entertainers.

OF the smaller companies that
have entered upon Lyceum work
In recent years none have given
better satisfaction than the Bever-
ly Entertainers, an organization
OF charming young women, who
give a diversified and interesting
program, at once novel and enter
tanning. Musical numbers in
Dutch costumes are one of the at
tractive features offered by the
company, whose members sing,
read, play mandolins and guitars
and give musical sketches in
charming costumes. Guitaro-
logues by Miss Rita Smith are
also featured.
Down in New Augusta, Miss,
some time since, the Beverly En-
tel tainers gave a number on the
local lyceum course, and the en-
t usiastic chairman Of the COM
mittee in that place wrote the
Bureau through which the Bever-
lies were booked as follows: Just
n word to say that the Beverly
Entertainers gave the first Lyce-
um entertainment last night given
in New Augusta since Columbus
America, and if we
never have another you will not
have lived in vain. They were
splendid, their program
was varied to suit every member
of the audience, and they pleased
everybody from baby to grandpa"

Rebekahs Entertain.

Monday evening Sierra Madre
Lodge No q of the Rebekahs en-
tertained the Odd Fellows at a
special banquet in honor of the
Rebekah branch of the greatest
order in the world.
Some fifty Rebekahs and Odd
Fellows assembled at the hall and
while the Odd Fellows held their
regular weekly session the ladies
prepared the sumptuous supper in
the hall below. All sat down to
the banquet table at about 10 and
a finer table vas never spread i'll
Saratoga. A special committee
had charge of the affair, composed
of Mrs. White as chairman, Mrs.
Q. w. Scott and Mrs. D. 8. Craw-
ford, and they did themselves
proud in the execution of their
duties.
After supper all went to the up
per hall where a small program
of games and music was in order
and a better time had not been
enjoyed by any than that of Mon
day night. The Rebekahs are, of
course, the strongest order in the
world, and like the I.O.O.F. they
are growing every day, much to
the qualification of the members,
both lodges now leading all others
by several hundred thousand
members.

Girls Make Good.

1t is gratifying to look over the
Saratoga valley and note the
change that has come over this To-
cality in the employment of home
girls as teachers. 1t took years
for some of our people to come to
the conclusion that home girls
were just as good teachers as girls
from other places.
We find, in looking over the
field, that Miss Flood is located
as grammar teacher, Miss Nora
Doggett as primary teacher, and
Mrs. Ekdahl as intermediate tea
cher in the public schools of Sar-
atoga, and they are filling the
places as we'll as any of their pre-
decessors. Miss Irene Hilliard is
/ aching at Morgan. Her sister,
Miss Dea billiard, is teaching at
Riverside, Miss Susie Forney at
the Wilson school, Miss Anna
Doggett at Gallo, Mary Want at
Medicine Bow, Miss Loretta Wi
ant at Cow creek, Miss Florence
Peck at Scarrow's, Miss Harriet
Lee at Pass creek, Mise Mary
Kidding at bennington and Miss
Anna Hunter at Walcott. Now if
that isn't a good showing for a
small town like Saratoga to turn
out, we want to know. Everyone
of these girls seem to take keen
interest in their work and are
making good, and we are pleased
to see the work of the home prod
uct handling home schools.

Trinidad, Colo.-There is nothing
suggestive of the casual or perfume
tory in the examination that John D.
Rockefeller Jr. is making of condi-
tions of the coal companies operated
by the Colorado Fuel and Iron Com
pany in southern Colorado.
Nothing escapes the keen, alert
young man of millions who is here to
learn for himself the exact situation
as to the surroundings and working
conditions of men employed in the
southern coal fields, especially in con-
nection with the company of which he
is a director.
Mr.. Rockefeller, who had travelled
all the way from New York without
his destination becoming known,
stepped from an ordinary sleeping car
on a Santa Fe train arriving from
Chicago Monday morning. He was ac-
companied only by his secretary,
Charles o. Heydt. Mr.. Rockefeller
was welcomed at the station by Jesse
F.. Welborn, president of the Colorado
Fuel and Iron Company. and others.
1t is not in any sense a personally
conducted tour of inspection in that
Mr.. Rockefeller is led by officials who
show what they want him to see, but
the young magnate leads for himself.
He seeks the truth concerning the liv-
ing conditions of the miners and man
ifests the greatest interest in the wa
ter they drink, the conditions at the
trading places. the roads and high
ways, the comfort of the homes and
the facilities provided for the enter
tainment of the residents of the coal
camps.
He doesn't seek figures as to out
put or concern himself with means for
Increasing production, but talks to the
miners as one with an interest in
their welfare.
He asks pointed questions concern
Ing the character of the work. and
seeks suggestions from miner. fire
boss, the clerk behind the store coun-
ers, the housewife and the camp doc
tors.
He ate lunch with the camp super
%lntendent fresh from the mines. at
tired in overalls.
He talked to the school children.
and throughout showed the interest
that he undoubtedly feels in the gen
eral welfare and social betterment of
the workers in the mines,
At Berwind Mr.. Rockefeller entered
a number of the houses inhabited by
the miners, made inquiries concerning
the heating, lighting and home condi-
tons generally, visited the camp hos
pital and made numerous inquiries
concerning the health and comfort of
the camp and commended the work
on the roads and grounds accom-
plished by means of the money con-
tributed by the Rockefeller founda-
lion.

SAStA shSh
said to himself:
"Thus will l do and 30
Until in the end l shall win great
wealth
1 have planned it all and 1
know"
For he thought he had reckoned
each step to climb,
Yet he quite overlooked, it sp-
pears;
That his Castle-o'. Dreams Foun-
dalton was time,
And the frame of the structure
years.
For scarce to the pillow he'd set
his hand
Ere it came-The Forgotten
Call,
Of4the fortune he dreamed and
fawlessly planned,
An unfinished furrow is all.
How many are the unfinished
furrows-we have yet to see the
finished rounded out "furrow of
life" How little we consider the
frailty of life, 10 contemplating
our plans for years of work. How
many answer the Forgotten Call"
each day of life, and what a blow
to the loved ones as the main stay
of the family goes on as in this
sad case.
Mr.. Hansen leaves a wife and
two little children, his brother
Harry, his father and mother, Mr..
and Mrs. Jens Hansen, and his
grandmother, Mrs. Kate Arnold.
He was associated in the stock
business on Pass creek, acting as
manager for the firm composed of
his father and brother. For sew
eral years he was an agent on
both the U. P. and s. & E rail-
ways and was a graduate of the
state university. His funeral was
the largest ever held in the city of
Rawlins, and which was attended
by many citizens from this valley,
who held him in the highest es-
TEEN.
We are in receipt of this glow
ing tribute to Mr.. Hansen from
the pen of a prominent resident OF
this valley:
"When word was received here
of the untimely passing away Of
our mutual friend, Chas. Hansen
it seemed to cast a pail owe the
entire community. Why, we pause
and ask, must such a fine citizen
sterling business man, beloved so
cial member, and above all, de
voted and adored husband and ia
ther, be called awayP Only God
in his infinite wisdom, knows W.T.,
this blow has fallen, As a frien,
Of only a few short months, l wi
to express my heartfelt sympathy
first to the devoted wife and tw
lovely children, then the parent
and many relatives. May the al
surance that his life was worth
and we'll spent comfort their so
rowing hearts"
