Every Third Weld Family Has Auto

Every Third Weld Family Has Auto
Nearly $500 automobile licenses have
been sold by the county clerk of Weld
county this year, 3,275 being the exact
number disposed of. which figuring on
basis of SO, 600 population for the county
means one auto for each ID persons.
Calculating this on basis of five to an
ordinary family, it means one automo-
bile owned by nearly every third family
in the county.
Automobile agents are still selling
cars, but the purchasers are not getting
licenses for them, as the county clerk
is out of 1916 license cards and tags and
cannot get any more, the supply having
been exhausted at the secretary of
states office.
New tags are expected about Decem-
ber for the 1917 licenses, and all who
purchase tags and cards during Decem-
ber 1916, will be given credit for the
full year of 1917.

A Respite for The Stockman

From our observations during the
campaign on the 80 called herd law, we
have come to the conclusion that the
stockmen should accept the defe at of
the aforesaid law not 80 much as a vindi-
cation of themselves, but rather as a re.
spite for the time being. We are in
clined to think that the vicious charac-
ter of the proposed law had more to do
with it's defeat than the notion Of CIV
ing the stockmen a clean bill Of health.
In the discussion of the herd law
question it has developed on pretty good
authority that there are few stockmen
who have so little regard for the rights
Of others that they deliberately rent
pastures here and there with the notion
that their stock will not only partake of
pasture rented, but will likewise encroach
upon the surrounding pastures. We
have been told that fences have been
deliberately cut between pastures so
that cattle could get over into the sur
rounding fields.
We are satisfied that there are but
very few offenders of this kind among
the stockmen. However, the entire
stock industry suffers from the reckless
ness of the few.
If nobody else takes the trouble to
look after it, the stockmen themselves
should see that legislation is enacted
during the coming session of the legis-
lature looking to the remedying of the
defects of the present law regarding
stock, with the idea of providing law
which is fair alike to the stock industry
and to the farmers at large. And, fnr-
thermore, they should endeavor to bring
the delinquent members Of their own in
dustry to time and thus prevent their
shortcomings from bringing upon the
head Of the stock industry the calamity
which threatened it in the rise Of the
domestic herd law promulgated by the
Denver Post.
Most stockmen whom we have talked
with are frank enough to acknowledge
that some of their brethren will have to
mend their ways or the entire industry
will have to suffer the consequences. =
