Robertson has plowed four miles of fire guards since the rains. This good example should be followed immediately bv every ranchman ill the county. Not for six years has tlie ground been in so good condition for plowing at this season of ilie year. The burn ing ol the range over a great por tion of the county two years ago taught a lesson that ought not yet be iorgotten. It has recovered very slowly fro m the ravages of that fire; and two more yeai’s fav orable growth will not mat the sod as it was prior to the fire. “A stitch in time saves nine.” Plow now before it is too late.

The rainfall has been generally less than the normal and uneven ly distributed. Somewhat more than the usual amouut was repor ted from the northern counties and portions of the eastern and south-central sections. In the vicinity of Lamar the rainfall was heavy, the total for the week being 3.GS inches, while over the upper portion of the Arkansas valley it averaged about one-hall inch. Reports from San Luis Park and the western slope indicate that the showers have been light. The weather during the past week has been favorable to grow ing crops and, in most sections for harvesting. Jn the north central section the harvest for wheat is practically completed; the crop is excellent; but in localities late wheat has been damaged by rust; oats have been secured in good .condition; potatoes look well. Re cent rains have greatly improved the prospects on the uplands of the eastern counties, and an ex cellent yield of corn is now al most certain; a heavy crop of millet is being cut in Cheyenne county. In the Arkansas valley watermelons are ripening rapidly, but cantaloupes m tlie vicinity of Rocky Ford arc maturing slowly the quality, however, is excellent; plums are ripe and grapes ripen ing; the third cutting ol alfalfa is under way in Bent, county; this crop is superior to the second. The wheat crop in San Luis Park will be very heavy. Some fields hwe been cut, but the harvest will not he general until next week. The cutting of wheat and } oats continues on the western j slope, and some thrashing has been done. Fruit is abundant and of excellent quality; heavy shipments to distant points con tinue. Range grass is excellent throughout the state. The attention of mining men throughout the entire West is at present being directed to the pla cer diggings of Bolivia, South America, from which locality the most alluring reports coine.

The Department of the Interior is sending out the following circu lar to the different land oflices: Your attention is called to the provisions of an act of Congress, approved Dec. 29 ’94, entitled “An act. to amend section 3 of an act to withdraw certain public lands lioni private entry, and lor other pur poses, approved March 2d 1889. Sec. 3 of the act of March 2d 1889 reads as lollows: That whenever it shall be made to appear to the register and re ceiver of any public land ollice, under such regulations as the Sec retary of the Interior may pre scribe, that any settler upon the public domain under existing law is unable, by reason of a total or partial destruction or failure of crops, sickness, or other unavoid able casualty, to secure a support for himself, herself, or those de pendent upon him or her upon the lands settled upon, then such reg ister and receiver may grant to such settler a leave of absence from the claim upon which he or she has filed lor a period not ex ceeding one year at any one time, and such settlers o granted leave of absence shall forfeit no rights by reason of such absence: Provided, That the time of such actual ab sence shall not be deducted from the actual residence required by law. And the provision added there to by the amendatory act is as follows: That it any such settler has here tofore forfeit ted lus or her entry for any of said reasons, such per son shall be permitted to make entry of not to exceed a quarter section on any public land subject to entry under the homestead law and to perfect title to the same under the same conditions in ev ery respect as if he had not made the former entry. No party will be allowed to make a second entry under this act, un loss his lormer entry is cancelled for any of the causes named, aris ing before December 20 1S94. The applicant for such permis sion to make second entry will be required to file in the district land office having jurisdiction over tfie land he desires to enter, an appli cation for a specific tract ol land, and to submit testimony to consist ot his own testimony, corroborat ed by the affidavits ot disinterest ed witnesses, executed before the register or receiver or some officer in the district using a seal and au thorized to administer oaths, set ting forth in detail the facts on which he relies to support Ins ap plication, and which must be suf ficient to satisfy the register and receiver, who arc enjoined to ex ercise their best and most careful judgment in the matter, that his former entry was in fact forfeited by reason of bis inability, caused by a total or partial destruction or failure of crops, sickness, or other unavoidable casualty, to secure a support for himself or those de pendent upon him, upon the land settled upon. The facts fo bo shown embrace the following, viz: 1. The character and date of, flic entry, date of establishing res idence upon the land, and what improvements were made thereon by the applicant. 2. How much land was' culti vated by the applicant, and lor what period ot time. 3. In case of failure or injury to crop, what crops failed or were injured or destroyed, to what ex tent, and the cause thereof. 4. In case ot sickness, what disease or injury, and to what ex tent the claimant was thereby prevented from continuing upon the land, and if practicable a cer tificate from a reliable physician should be furnished. 5. In case of “other unavoida ble casualty,” the character, cause and extent ol such casualty, and its effect upon the land or the claimant. G. In each case full particulars upon which intelligent action may be based by the register and re ceiver. Live Stock and Grain Keports.

'Hie people of the busy West appreciate keen ly the necessity of nn intelligent knowledge of the world’s daily doings, but they are too busy to waste valuable time in searching through a cumbrous “ blanket-sheet ” news paper for the teal news of art, literature; science, religion, politics, and the thomsne?- nnd-one things which make up modern civ ilization. They want news—all the news— but they don’t want it concealed in an over jxjwcring moss of the trivial mid inconsequen tial. It is because The Chicago Daily News is "all wheat and no chafff that its circulation is over “ a million a week." Second : —lt is an Independent, TYuth-Ullitig Newspaper. The people demand a fair, im partial, independent newspaper,which gives all the news, and gives it free from the taint of partisan bias. With no mere political am bition to gratify, no “ ax to grind,” the im partial, independent newspaper may truly be “ guide, philosopher and friend ” to honest ir.cnof every shadoof political faith; nndlhi3 is why The Chicago Daily News has to day a circulation of over “a million a week." The Chicago Daily News now adds to these two comprehensive elements of popu larity, a third, in its unparalleled reduction of price to ONE CENT A DAY. It is always large enough ,—never too large. The Chicago Daily News is for saio by all newsdealers at One Cent per copy, or V-’ill be mailed, postage paid, for Sj-’-o per year, cr zp cents per month. The fanner nn 1 mechanic can now afford, ns well as tho merchant and professional man, to have his metropolitan daily. Addresa VICTOR F. LAWSON, Publisher “The Daily News,” Chicago
