ing. The elk came from the Jackson
Hole country In Wyoming. There
Is no feed there for them this win

ranchmen to such an extent that the
ranchers have made traps for them.
The elk are great jumpers and can
go over the highest of fences. They
get to the hay stacks and make quick
work of the feed. While at the
stock yards here it was not an un-
i common thing to see them Jump over
' tho fences from one pen to another,
and It was some Job to care for them.
