Mr.. Empol slipped and fell, breaking

Western Ranch a Center of Interest to
Those Who Are Keen on Prehis-
toric Lore.

If the skeleton in a museum is a
~"dinohyus" CT a ''moropus," one may
be quite sure that it came from the
farm of James Henry Cook in the
northwest corner of Nebraska; and
the chances are almost equally good if
the specimen happens to be a saber-
toothed cat or a many-toed horse, or
almost any of those queer animals that
belong to the early Miocene period,
says r. P. Crawford, in Popular Me-
chanics Magazine.
Most ranchmen and farmers are
quite content to raise the ordinary sort
of stock, but here Is a ranch that is
most widely known because of its OUT
put of prehistoric animals.
The Cook farm and ranch, located
close to the Wyoming line, comprise
some $4,000 acres. On the eastern edge
of the ranch the Niobrara river has
laid bare two hills, from both of which
scores and scores Of fossil skeletons
have been quarried.

was one who chung %tenaciously to OLD
