Trinidad was as dead as salt her

it will brighten up now since the

for the U. S. Land and Cattle Com
pany. They have about $500 head
of cattle. They expect to have 5000
in two years. They own 100000
acres of land. They raise their own
feed. but never feed much except dur
| ing hard winter. They will not
feed anything this winter before
Christmas, and then Just the old
cows.

have good time hunting. There
