Thos. Schneider's mill flume was
slightly damaged Friday afternoon by a
big rock that rolled down the mountain
side next to the flume. The rock
struck the flume near where it leaves
Willow creek, knocking a big hole in
the bottom and tearing tke timbers
from the sides. The damage was soon
repaired, and the delay was only for a
short time. . Mr. Schneider was at first
of the opinion that the damage ws the
result of an explosion, but investigation
found the rock which had bounced
about 50 feet after striking the flume, j
The rock was probably staited by some
boys that were playing on the hill.
The heavy rains of last week while
being of great benefit to the country,
also caused some damage. In some
portions of Morrow county, threshing
is not yet finished and grain in the
stack has been tlightly damaged.
rhreshed grain in the sack which is
still in the field has been somewhat
damaged where it was not properly
taken care of. Quite a lot of Fall wheat
has already been sown. The moisture
will be of great benefit to this and will
give it a good start. In some places the
ground is wet enoagh for Fall plowing.
Grass on the ranges is taking on new
ife and is springing up fresh and green
which will benefit the stockmen.

Forest Supervisor M. P. Isenburg was
in town Friday, attending the stock
men's meeting. Mr. Isenherg infoims
us that a change has been made in the
matter of allotment of range in there-

the Interior, made Ftbruary S, 1902, the
allotment of range in reserve was
placed in the hands of wool growers as
sociations, where such associations in
cluded a majority of the sheepmen in
their membership. On October 21th,
last, this authority was taken from the
stock associations and placed entirely ;n
the hands of the forest supervisors.
