NEW YORK. THE VALENTINE DEMOCRAT I. M. RICE EDITOR $1.OO Per Year in Advance PUBLISHED EVERY THURSDAY. Entered at tbe Fost-offlce at Valentine. Cherry county. Nebraika , as Second-class matter. At the second annual session of the Eastern Wyoming Wool Growers asso ciation recently Governor Richards showed that it is not only possible to run sheep and cattle together but it is also more profitable than conducting ihe two industries separately. He said that the idea that sheep ruin a lange is a mistake and cited many instances where sheep grazing had improved the range 5o per cent. s for sheep ruin ing the range , Governor Richards said that his experience has taught him that sheep benefit the pastures instead of in- llicting injury upon them and are of more benetit than cattle. Cattle drop ping , he said , lie in spots , where it kills the grassland unless the manure is broken up in small bits and scattered over the prairie it dries up and the fer tilizing properties escape. On the oth er hand sheep droppings are scattered all over the range in surall pieces where it enriches the soil immediately or. be fore it dries up and is blown away. Hon. Robt. Taylor said that Merinos are the best sheep for the ranges of this section. Daily Drover's Journal. Exceedingly tow Bate Ex cursions to Minnesota. Dates sale : August 1 to JO inclusive.

The chick en crop seems to be almost a failure in tnese parts. We are needing rain more now than at any time this summer. If we don't get a good rain in a few days the corn will be light in this part of the country. The chinch bugs are too numerous to mention in the wheat fields and some corn fields in the Sparks locality. Some have tried the Infected Bug rem edy but failed to get satisfaction and have gone to harvesting the small gram. Sparks celebrated the second time this year on Saturday last. Sparks ball team and the Harmony team had a hot game of ball whichtfinded in favor of Harmony. Theyvhad horse racing and dancing that vas well attended es pecially the dancing.
