Elk Raid Mountain Hay
Ranches in Routt County

erty Investigation brought out the fact
that, while no great damage was done
there was immediate danger of the en-
tire band swooping down on the hay
supply of some of the ranchmen at any
time, and consuming and destroying it.
In the opinion of MIR. Cook, the best
method will be to drive the elk to the
south. and toward the bare ridges, get
ting them away from the deeper snow
and in n part of the country where the
grass is more abundant. This will be
tried, and in the event of its failure.
the elk will be either captured and
shipped TO a more favorable locality, or
feed will be purchased from the farmers,
and the animals wintcred in that man.
ner. The latter method is considered as
impracticable, as the short hay crop Of
last year makes it necessary that all
feed be reserved for the livestock of the
rnnchmen. Could some feasible plan be
devised whereby these animals could be
cared for in the event of winter OF
deep snow, as at present, the plan would
be readily adopted by the state game
and fish department, as IL is the wish
of that branch of our government to
perpetuatc the species and encourage
their preservation, and these giant elk,
or wapiti, as the Indians designated
them, are one Of the natural wonders
and attractions of the country, and
every effort should be put forth by the
citizens to prevent a deportation of the
few remaining relics Of our early days.

The petition of the majority property
holders on Avenue + for the paving OF
this avenue from Eighteenth street to

instructed to draw up an ordinance.
The cost of the construction of this

HUDDLESTON WILL
ASSIST IN FIGHT
ON BOIL WEEVIL
Congressman to Invoke Federal Aid
in Fighting Cotton Pest in
jefferson County

The ravages of the boil weevil in
Jefferson county have been reported
to the federal agents by Congressman
George H Huddleston. The bureau of
plant industry has been asked if it is
fully alive to the menacing situation
and If it has sufficient funds with
which to wage a fight against the
enemy of cotton.
"a letter from r. A. Terrell called
my attention to the fact that the boil
weevil is doing deadly work among
the cotton planters in Jefferson coun-
ty," Mr.. Huddleston said. IL have
written the department of agriculture
asking what means the department
were taking to halt the work of the
boil weevil, and if it had sufficient
funds to carry on the experiments.
Upon marshaling figures regarding
the number of bales of cotton ginned
in this county the activities of the
boil weevil are seen to be pronounced.
Up until October / only 172 bales had
been ginned In 1915 $50 bales were
ginned at that time. 1t seems that
there will not be 1000 bales realized
this year in the county, although ap-
proximately 1900 were made in 1915
and 1900 in 1914.
IF the department states that it has
insufficient funds shall make an ef-
fort to have the appropriations in
creased when Congress reconvenes."

COMMITTEE Off
TO GET SUNDAY
Delegation Hopeful Noted
Evangelist Will Come
Here for Meetings

The special committee named to in
vite Billy Sunday, the famous evan
gelist and former baseball player, to
hold a series of his meeting in Bir-
mingham left Birmingham yesterday
afternoon for Detroit to confer with
the evangelist and extend the invita-
ton. They were named at the meet
ing at the First Methodist church Sun
day afternoon.
Plans for having Mr.. Sunday in Bir-
mingham have been under way for
several months among the different
church organizations. A resolution to
this effect was introduced at the re-
cent meeting of the state merchants
in Birmingham and the measure found
the support of the entire assembly.

]. r. McWane, w. s. Stallings, r. s..
Munger, DR.. L. c. Branscomb and DR..

Crescent railroad yesterday afternoon
going by way of Cincinnati. They will
arrive in Detroit and interview the
Rev. Mr.. Sunday at 10 o'clock Wednes-
day morning. They expect to return
to Birmingham Friday.
According to DR.. Broadly, who is
intimately acquainted with the evan
gelist, Mr.. Sunday has had Birming-
ham on his map for sometime, and it
is thought quite probable that he may
be persuaded to visit this city soon.
He has never been south and it is con-
sidered that in the event Birmingham
can be the first southern city to get
him big advertisement for this sec
ton will result as well as a great
spiritual benefit DR.. Broadly stated
that he estimated that the evangelist
would draw more than $4,000 persons
to Birmingham in the event of series
Of meetings.
According to the plans outlined at
thine meeting Sunday afternoon, if Mr..
Sunday can be persuaded to come to
Birmingham a tabernacle with a seat
ing capacity for 10000 persons will
be built and the meetings will con-
tinue for period of six weeks Be-
fore leaving members of the commit
tee expressed the opinion that the
evangelist could be persuaded to come
as several favorable letters had been
received from him.
