erage, high In their percentage, especially
the exhibit of Plymouth Rocks. I have
awarded the prise to this class, the Huff
Cochins, 'the Drown Leghorns and the
Game rocks. The light lias been bad for
rapid Judging. The markings have been
very' close, and in ntore than one case a
single black feather, as In the riymoutli

"I don't see how such conditions could

Omuha parties, It is believed, have circum

surveyors sent out from Worland are now
at work in Little Buffalo basin making sur

in whose employ they are working. It Is
believed here thut private capital inter

Worland Is belling the scheme.
The Little Ruffald basin project was
shown to Chairman Mondell of the national

here and he promised to taka it up with
