Strow bridge's 240 odd pounds stood him i 4 in good stead Tuesday of this week, *when he was taking a bunch of haydiggers out to the railroad. There were six of them in the car, and being liberally supplied with bottles of whisky, they got a glori ous jag on—so much so, that when one of the tires punctured this side of Ralston’s, the jagged ones got out and indulged in a free for all by the road side. In trying to dis entangle the combatants, Mr. S. was treated to a corkscrew punch in the neck by one of the more dar- ^ing of the scrappers. Needless to v '&ay, he retaliated with interest, 1 and by the time he was through with the obstreperous one. the dat- ; ter resembled an overripe pumpkin | and the rest of the journey was r fightless.

For our less fortunate brethren in the corn states, where the worst drought in twenty years has left its baneful effects, we have nothing but sympathy. Their extremity is proving our opportunity and our ranchers will profit accordingly next spring. The basin is again a monster stackyard, its thousands stantial growth of tons of hay greeting the eyes from east to west and from north to south. Wc live in a bountiful country, of high altitude and long winters 'tis true, but the air is dry and clear, the climate exhilarating and the water like nectar.

Our future looks bright, and the cn^ of another year will see many improvements.
