Forty neres of the. park hnvo been fenced for ti piKtiir.v The uo vull bo greatly increased next spring Hnv will bo provided for the herd during the winter, ne tbo graf on the fortv-nero space will very soon be eaten off. Con tracts -n ill pooh be let for fencing 1000 acres of the 10,000 conipri-inp this national reservation, and the herd tumod loose in it next spring, nfter which they will forage for their own food altogether. Latet figures furni-hed to the I'ni'ed l'rexs place the number of bion in the United States and Can ndn at more than '2000. A few vear ngti less than n hundred were known to csl-f in tho world. One go em inent herd, started in 100!) wilh 37 animal", has increased to flfi. The bison bonis owned by tho gov ernment nre now distributed in Wind Cave Nntionnl park, Niobrara Na tional park, Nebraska; Montana Na tional park and Wichita forest re serve, in Kansits and Oklahoma. The largest herd owned bv the government is the Yellowstone park herd. The last reports of the war den showed 143 fenced animals and 40 wild ones. Dr. Tlenrv W. Ilon shaw. chief of the biological survey believes the abnormal increase of the fenced animal' is because the tamer nnimnls steal the calves of the wild ones. EGGS DROP 15 CENTS . WITHIN THREE.

Doc. 27. Wholesalers in nearl.v e-try lino of trade in the Twin Cities todav set on foot plan" looking toward the handling of a great amount of freight by line of boats opeinting between here and the (lulf of Mexico. A liver terminal costing half a million dollar is nl readv under construction under the Washington avenue budge in Minne apolis and it has been predicted that the big business interests of tho two cities Mill be operating boats to New Orleans by the middle of next bum mer. The primary object of the enter prise is to force down the railroad freight rates against which the local uliiiliv-nlrrs. have ItMlireii eoillltlCss complaints. The now rate between liuluth and the Twin Cities make sjioody action of jobbers a necessity and it is believed that river trail jMtrtntion is the solution of the prob lem. Another incentive behind the pio po.ed river freight line is the open ing of the Panama canal. Now Or leans is destined to become the re ceiving point for an enormous mass of merchandise and n river line heie nnd between that city would be of enormous value.
