. All the stock in the valley will go
into the winter in better condition
1 than they have for the past five
! | years. To add to this there is
more and better pasture under
fence than ever before, and the
i quantity of hay in the stack ex
l ceeds that of any other year in the
history of the valley by at least
• one third. The outlook for the
i winter is of the most encouraging
character.
SARATOGA, CARBON COUNTY, WYOMING, OCTOBER 25,1894.
Robert Jones, of Ft. Steele, sold
something over 800 wether lambs
of the Oxford-Down breed, last
week, to parties who intend to
take them to Ft. Collins, to feed
for the Christinas market. They
are the finest lambs ever raised in
the West, and have brought a fair
price considering the condition of
the market, they bringing $1.35
per head.
The term of the district court,
which closed last Saturday, was
the shortest term held for years.
There was only one case for the
petit jury, and only one criminal
to try—a man arrested for embez
zlement, who plead guilty. This
speaks well for the moral charact
er of the people in Carbon county,
for litigation means contention
and discord, and these mean a con
tentious and turbulent people.
J. W. Bleasdale, a brother-in
law of W. W. Craine, foreman of
The Sun office, arrived Thursday
on a visit of a few days. Air.
Bleasdale, who resides in Cleve
land. Ohio, had been on a visit to
friends in the state of Washing
ton, and stopped here on his way
back. He will visit a brother in
Colorado on his way home. He
enjoyed a few days hunting, even
getting a shot at that rare animal,
an antelope.
