FOREST NOTES.

(Battlement)

The Forest service has just made
application to the Bureau of Fisheries
for 1O5,0OO native trout fry for the
Battlement Forest 1t is intended to
plant these fry for this year in streams
arising on the South slope of Grand
tirely. apart from the fish which are
planted every year in co operation with
the State of Colorado. For the past
several years fish have been intro
duced into various streams on the
Forest and the results so far have been
very gratifying.
Ranger ]. c. Clayton, who is in
charge of the Grand River district,
has gone to the Forest Service Nurs-
cry at Halsey, Nebraska, for tenn
porary period to get experience in
planting forest tree seedlings and in
other nursery practise.
Each spring for the last three years
local Rangers have been putting up
nesting boxes for birds at the various
Ranger stations. This has been done
as an experiment to see whether an
increase in the number of insectivor-
Gus birds could be brought about. So
far this work has been successful. in
nearly every case the boxes being
used by either wrens Of bluebirds.

Now we must pull off our coats and

This giddy old world is all in whirl

When hell breaks out it is time for
Johnny to get his gun while the soft

hands to do. Grow oodles of army

spuds and few other luxuries tor in

what Henry George said about the
need of men is still pregnant fact.

warfare is the yellow journal that

pretty much as Abe Lincoln expressed
II when he said that the fellows at
the back OF him were more to BE-

Colorado people are more nearly out
of wheat OF their own raising than any

COTTON MARKETS.

New York June H-Bulhsh enthusiasm In
the cotton market received 4 check today and
prizes broke sharply. Indications that quanti-
ties Of the staple are headed this way for de-
Livery were a factor. Favorable reports regard
ing the weather in the belt also increased the
DISPOSITION to even up long contracts. Western
interests were among the sellers.
Business at the opening was smaller than IN
several weeks. After the call the Pressure in
creased and within a few minutes quotations
had declined 9 to z points from the initial
figures.
The market was nervous and irregular after
the opening Advance. Heavy domestic con-
suuptiop indirated by the report of the Census
Bureau may have contributed TO the initial
bulge. but created no fresh sentiment Of cnnSe-
uucnce. and the market soon turned easier.
There was a good deal of realizing The South
was again credited with selling July against
prospective tenders and there seemed to be
sone local selling for = reaction. But after
IhoWinE a net loss Of some Is or 20 points the
market steadied although there was no particH-
lar change in tie news, and there were rallies
Of some or 10 points from the lowest.
Trading was quiet late in the morning, with
the active months ruling about Is TO l6 points
net lower at midday not quite half . cent
under yesterdays high records. The way bust
nsss had tapered OF on such a comparatively
moderate reaction was taken by some local
traders as indicating that the recent advance
had been more the result Of trade requirements
than Of speculative sentiment. At the same
time the excitement seemed 10 have subsidsd.
and there was evidently q feeling around the
ring that the upward movement had been halted
By increased spot offerings in the South.
