Bears, elks, mountain sheep and liona,_ usually fairly abundant in this-region, have disappeared, apparently for no reason, according to forest officials. Winter has gone and summer has come even in the high altitude sections of the park, but the usual reports.pf these animals having been seen are not coming in as heretofore. The latest report of an elk is al-! most a year old and the mountain ! sheep, which were on the decline ■ because of some mysterious dis- j ease and which were treated by ■ medicine placed in salt licks, seem j to have disappeared completely. | Bodies of the sheep have not been I found and it is believed that the : flock is safe somewhere. Porcupines are quite plentiful, | however, so plentiful that they con-' stitute a serious menace to small j trees.* Mountain lion hunters were i disappointed last winter, not one of the killers having been shot during the season. o Use of “Whipstock** A whipstock is a tool which is lowered on top of a string of lott drilling tools when it is desired to drill by them. The beveled face of the whipstock causes the working tools to glance off to one side of the detached string. A whipstock is also used as a means of straightening a hole which has deviated from the vertical. The expression | "arranging a whipstock" means that the drilling tools are lost and arrangements are being made to drill ' past them with the aid of a whipstock. tint the Habit—-Trace at Home For BETTER HEALTH Seel DR.
