When the government took charge
of the livestock raphes within tne
national forests some of them were
bo badly overgrazed and otherwise
Injured from reckless handling of
the stock that their gracing vnluo
appeared to have been atanosj entire
ly destroyed. Many of these ranges,
however, have been restored and
made as valuable en ever. On sev
eral of the forest results have more
thaa Justified the expectations and
the range la in better condition than
H ever was.
An example of this Improvement
la cited in the Nobo national fort at,
Utah. In 1908, when that forest
was created, the ranges within the
forest boundaries were found to be
'badly overgrazed and trampled be
cause there waa a lack of any con
trol or supervision over he area3.
One of the area waa at that time
estimated to be capable of carrying
only 3.000 head of cattle. . Now,
through conservative management
and Judicious distribution of the cat
tle over the ranges, and improve
ments In water conditions, the car
rying capacity of the range has been
Increased until, in the present graz
ing season, nearly 8,000 head of cat
tle are uslnjc thla particular area,
and forest officers' feel that a few
hundred head more can be safely
grazed there without injury.
The Secretary of Agriculture, un
der date of July 16th. has ordered
released from quarantine for scab
ies., a contagtouH communicable dis
ease of cattle, the remainder of the
states of South Dakota and New
Mexico. This releaws from quaran
tine In South Dakota the counties of
Lawrence, Pennington. Custer, F:11
River, Washington, Shannon. Men
nett. and Waha.baugh. In New
Mexico, the quarantine Is raised from
the following counties: Union, Guad
alupe, Quay, Roosevelt. Chaves,
Eddy, that portion of Torrance coun
ty lying east and south of the El
Paso and Rock Island Railway, that
portion of Lincoln county lying enst
and south of the Kl I'aso and North
eastern and the El 1"hso & Rock Is
land Railways, and that nortlon of
Otero county lying east of the El
Paso and Northeastertn Railway.
In the state of Montana, the coun
ty of Fergus la released from quar
antine, and In the state of Nebras
ka the county of Thormws is relear.ed
from quarantine for scabies. This
means that the prohibition agalntt
shipping cattle from these prev'ous
ly quarantined districts 'nto other
rcctions is now ended.
The same order replaces under
quarantine for scabies in the state
of Wyoming the newly named and
organtaed counties of Piatt, Goshen,
and Niobrara, and; continues under
quarantine In Nebraska that portion
of Garden county north of the North
Platte river, which was formerly
part of Deuel county.
BRINGING BACK OVER
GRAZED STOCK RANGES
WASHINGTON, July 9. The Im
proved condition of the national for
est range after regulated grazing Is
pointed to by experts of the depart
ment of agriculture as a demomtra
tlon that areas which have been
severely damaged through overstock
(ng by sheep and cattle can be
brought back to their former carry
ing power through a system of suf
fkrlently intelligent use.

WANT NEW SALE RING
The success of the sale recently
held at Alliance by the Alliance
Horse ft ..Mule Company, has shown
the need for a new sale rmg, to
properly handle the sales which will
be held here in the future. The fol
lowing petition was signed by- the
business men of Alliance and pre
sented to the Burlington officials
this morning:
"We, the undersigned business
men of Alliance, believe, from our
observations of the local hoie sales
aunng tne past two years, that AI11
ance is a good horse niark and
that the sales will Increase in size
each summer.
"We petition the Chicago , .Burling.
ton and Quincy Railroad Company to
adapt their new stock yards to the
holding of the horse sales by build
ing a sale ring, which will greatly
facilitate the business."

Judge H. M. Bullock of Alljance la
the Inventor of a hay stacker that
ranchmen pronounce a little the best
tiling of the kind they have ever
seen. He has been working on his
invention for several years, and now !
Jv.ta It so perfected that he is more
than billing to put it up against any
other slacker In the world In a con
test for supremacy. It bis been
thoroughly tested, and has proven
Just what It will do. On the theory
that a dollar saved la a dollar earned,
ranchmen will do well to give this
machine a trial, and save time and
expense in putting up their hay
crop.
Otto P. Kaldal Is associated with
Judge Bullock In the manufacture of
tne stacker, which has been njuued
the B-K Hay Stacker. The name of
the firm ia Bullock & Kaldal. Mr.
KaUlal investigated the new inven
tion and was fully convinced of its
merits before putting money into the
manufacture of it. He Is a careful
business man and Is well known in
this purt of Nebraska. Ranchmen
who know him will not hesitate to
try the machine that he has invested
In the manufacture of after careful
investigation.
H. M. Bullock la an old timer In
northwestern Nebraska, having re
sided In Sheridan and Box Butte
counties twenty-nine years. While
residing in Sheridan county he was
elettcd county Judge, afterwards re
moving to Box Butte. A few years
ago he was elected police magi
trate cf the tity of Alliance, 'which
gave him an additional claim to ihe
title or "Judge". The Hera'd is de
lighted at his success in his inven
tion, because he is an old timer in
this country and because he has
worked hard on the invention and
Is deserving cf success; and farther
because the invention will be a ben
efit to ranchmen who use it. upon
whom the manufacturers m;.v de
pend for their trae'e. In passing It
should be mentioned here that Judge
Bullock is an experienced hay man
himself and understands the hayni
proposition frcm beginning -to end.
He formerly put up large amounts of
hay under contracts, having put up
bay under con trait for Borne of the
largest ranchmen of the west.

Many business men who are good
advertisers during the other months,
slow down on advertising during the
summer, thereby letting their main

It, for H dont pay. Advertise sea

of today are built on constant, con

done by short spurts, for Chat Is not

Specialization seems to be the In
exorable price of financial Buecess.
Some country editors attain finan
cial success by specialization In the
business and other by paragraph
ing, others by chasing locals, others
by bearing down on the subscription
lit pedal, others by Job printing and
so It goes.
The Job of the country editor- Is
In a class by itself. Thre Is no more
similarity between the work of a
country editor and that of a city
newspaper worker than there Is ' be
tween peeling potatoes and playing
a tuba. The city man Is a special
ist. He writes paragraphs or at
tends police court or operates a lino
type Just one thing and nothing
more.
Out In the country town his com
posite brother is the whole works,
Jumping lightly from the ink keg to
the subscription book, sorting rules
or collecting bills, washing rollers or
writing paragraphs. He cannot be
master of all trades, but he can be
master of one which will bring him
the necessary ghost perambulator.
His position gives him an opportuni
ty of having a lot of fun out of life,
If he looks at things with a healthy
viewpoint. And so he goes on, the
average successful country editor,
"tolling, rejoicing, sorrowing," jack
of all trades and n aUer of none.
