Resirts from the range in the
Pacific coast section of the country
indicate that a lively demand exists
there for horstrf of good sire. There
are still some ranges in California,
but not nearly so tunny as there
were a decade ago, the agriculturist
and cattlemen having taken up
most of the available grazing
ground. In Oregon there is still
more scope for horse rango and

eign buyers have even penetrated
as far north as Kansas City, look
ing for likely lots of range-bred
horses suitablo for army uses. One
big bant! of unbroken bronchos
was takeu last week in that .mar
ket at 5.r) around without throw
outs and the price was esteemed a
very good one indeed. In Wyom
ing, according to the stories that
come this way, things are not
going so well with the range horses
as they are in some other regions.
It is sitiil that the range is now too
contracted for profitable keeping of
horses, the grass having been taken
up by the cattle and sheep, and the
settlers who have driven away the
horses as a matter of solf protec
tion. Indeed the prmliction is
made that before long Wyoming
will have no range horses save on
deeded land and in a certain few
loalities well control led. Breeders

Under the stable government main

European capitalists built ' 400
miles; then, in 1X77, Dinx became
President, and under his adminis

by American ninital, and the in
vestments of Americans in rail
roads alone in Mexico are said to
amount to ,!50,000,000. It is
these roads moro than everything
else that have been instrumental
in developing Mexico's resources.
This capital went thero not only
because it was evident that the
country was resourceful, but be

there are bail mothers, but they
are not m.ny, ami urn not here

his mother until he has a wife to
kiss and afterward, if she be alive.
Depend UK)n it, boy, that there
will lie no other friend or hel'r
just like or etpual to mother. We
can see many of these mothers on
all our streets any day: Borne of
