" The west la a great country a young man of settled habits his habits are not settled. It Is pine e- for him. "Kreet under tlie weight of his K4 years, with white tin ir and flowing beard, a. W, Boyd at Moororofl ux6 St. Paul, who "came back" at th age of seventy, expressed this Sent iment as he paused a moment in a noonday walk thru the business dis trict. Coming to Wyoming at the age of three score and ten, when most men consider their life course finished, he recuperated financial losses and virtually began life anew. Today he Is a wealthy flock master with homes in two states," says the Sheridan Post. Hla story the story of this white haired man who struck his stride 20 years beyond the half-century mark Is In many respects remarkable. He went to Casper In the late nine ties, when that city was one of the wildest "sheep towns" In the state. There, thru the aid of friends. he found employment without salary. Hla employer soon discovered that hla new employee could cover more ground In a day than he himself, at half the age. Finding his services not only not worthless but valuable. e placed him on a salary of MS a month and board, and thus was laid he nucleus of a comfortable fertune. And there, as a herder, he galned the start which brought him wealth and affluence. He became the own er of a large tract of the so-called desert land and engaged In theac aislng Although a "sheen nan" he lived In peace and harmonv with the cattle men" around him. But he felt (hat the fertile plains a eastern Wyoming were destined for better use than sheep feeding. He heard I'rufeasor Campbell lecture and he- came Interested In his system for onservmg the rainfall in the semi- arid west and thus turning the great attle and sheep ranches into cultiva ted farms. Acting with the character Istlc energy of a man eighty-three years young, he enrolled in the Camp bell Correspondence School of Soli ulture the youngest boy in the bunch and began a systematic Btudy of scientific soil tillage, and today ne ts turning his sheep ranch into farm under the Instructions of Professor Campbell and his associ ates Not long ago he made a visit o Lincoln, Nebraska, to meet his nstructors, and assured irofesor Campbell an enthusiastic audience m in the aei jit cent sheep and cattle ranches. If he could find time t o stop off at Moorcroft and give a talk To all of us old men of fifty. Mr. Hoyd, young at eighty-four and school boy. is a constant Inspira tion. Should any of the old boys or the young men who read this story of Mr. Boyd have an impulse to start life anew on a farm in the west, it would be well for them to do as Mr Howd has done go to the fountain htad for information Write to the Campbell Correspondence School at Lincoln.

We have sold a lot of Pianos and Player-pianos, and were it not for the quar antine for the smallpox in our city, which to a degree affected business in general at Alliance and vicinity, we would have undoubtedly sold a great many more. The local management of our Al liance store believes that if we'd extend the date of closing of the club sale from May 31 Until July 3 those who might have joined the club but who were prevented on account of the smallpox at Alliance and vicinity, will take advantage of a further oppor tunity if presented. We have therefore decided to extend the time from May 3 1 st to July 3d. Remember, the Club will Close for Membership at thea Close of Business July 3d There has been 111 pianos and player-pianos sold thus far.
