COOL WEATHER
PREVAILS
The Crisp Air Has Brought
Life and Activity To
the City.
MERCHANTS VERY BUSY
A Demand for Winter Goods Created
by the Weather and the People
Are Buying Freely.

lack Frost b. as touched the languid
limbs of recumbent summer ana the
luscious old dame has quit the chilly
lap of autumn.
The weather for weeks bias been
against the merchants OF Ell Paso.
There is q season called fall, when they
EXPECT cool weather to create q demand
for fall and winter goods, but in this
locality summer has habit of hanging
on until almost Christmas time, and 1t
promises to do 30 this year.
Show windows have been filled with
overcosts. blankets, heavy clothing
for men, furs and f1snnels for the wo-
men, and all kinds of articles for cool
weather, for the past six weeks, and
they have looked out of place. Tor the
people have been comfortable in their
July apparel.
LIFE AND SNAP.
Now the change has come and the
cool weather has brought life and
activity to the city. The merchants
are busy. The weather forces the
people to buy winter clothing ana
they are responding freely. The coal
and wood men, the shoe men, every
purveyor of winter necessities Is busy.
The bracinp atmosphere makes
everyone feel better. People are rush
ing about their business as 1t they
meant it. The excuse, sit is too
warm" ia gone. Everybody feels like
doing something and the business OF
the city is increasing rap dly.
ELPAso'S PROSPERITY.
This has been prosperous year for
Ell Paso and the outlook is brighter
for q big fall and holiday trade for the
than for many years. There
ORC M idle neODle and there are no
d desirable vacant houses in the city.
An air, of prosperity pervades every
thing. There is feeling on the part
of all that the city is now to go rapidly
to the front, and the citizen who
hangs back is lost.

Garfield county fruit growers are
caused an endless amount of annoyance
In the destruction of their orchards by
animals.
On Elk creek deer come down in great
herds at certain times of the year and
destroy whole orchards. On Rifle creek
the coyotes do great mischief. Bears
eat up the berry patches and donkeys
plunder the orchards.
This winter the pest has been the
rabbit.
Martha Shute, secretary of the Board
Of Horticulture of Colorado, has recent
ly received letters from fruit growers
in the western part of the state asking
for plans for protection against rab-
bits. She submits the following rene
dies:
A good plan is to use tree protectors
The following mixture is recommended
hot slaked lime, one of. clean COW ma
nure, One-hnlf spadeful of SCOT, one
handful of flour Of sulphur: mix the
whole together with the addition of suf-
ficient water to bring 1t to the cOnsis-
tency of thick paint. At the approach
Of winter paint the trunks of the trees
high enough to be beyond the reach Of
these vermin. Experience has shown
that it does no injury to the trees. A
dry hot day should be chosen for the
application.
a. Munger of Kansas says: "Many
and varied are the sure cures for them,
but none are perfect. A wash of ordi-
nary whitewash and a pint OF sulphur
to the bucketful applied with brush
or swab to the bodies OF the trees will
generally stop their work. Tarred pa
per, cornstnlks, veneering. screen wire,
cloth tied around the trees or woven
wire fence around the entire orchard
are all among the practical means TO
fence against rabbits. Do not apply
coal tar-it keeps the rabbits on, but
the orchard will be treeless."
II. d. Osborne says: dig around
trees down to the roots. dam outside.
fill around tree with water and carbolic
acid"
Another Kansas grower gives this:
"For rabbits use wooden tree wrap
pers and dig the borers out"
II wrap the trees with paper" says
a. G. Axelton.
One man suggests greasing the trees
lightly in the fall and washing them off
In the spring.
For protection against rabbits" sug-
gests DR.. James Myers. owner OF u
great orchard in Kansas. take lime
and Portland cement. equal parts. mix
with sweet milk to the consistency of
paint, add one tenspoonful OF paris
green and apply with Il brush: 1t will
never fail"
Another fruit grower fences with n
two-foot poultry netting. another wraps
the trees with cloth. another uses sui
phnte of copper and London purple and
still another uses wash OF lime, con-
centrated lye and carbolic acid.
The method used oftenest by growers
seems to be that. of killing rabbit and
rubbing Its body upon the trees.
W. G. Osborne. who has been fruit
grower for forty years. says the way
he keeps Off rabbits Is with hounds.

The latest wrinkle in beet sugar
manufacturing is n squeezing plant or
sub-station located at n place far dis
extracts the juices of the beet and
leaves the pulp or pomace at the place
for the use of feed farmers there. The
juice is then transported in barrels or
tierces to the factory and in this form
1t can be kept indefinitely by proper
temperature. With PLENTY of squeeZ-
ers all over the country a factory

He will fence the whole place with the

tract up into ten-acre lots for con-

have breeding pens and feed lots so

He will stock the place with Berk-

LIVER FLUKE KILLS CATTLE.
A Disease Common Among English Stock
Prevalent In Colorado.

Prevalent In Colorado.
Colorado cattle are dying from the
ravages OF the liver fiuke. commonly
designated as the "fiuke worm."
State Veterinary Surgeon Charles
Gresswell yesterday received word
from the North Park Cattle Company
that forty head of their cattle hal
died from this cause. He Immediately
sent prescription by which it Is
hoped that the rest of the cattle can
be saved.
1.-THE disease affects young cattle
and sheep almost always fatally" said
DIR. Gresswell, but is little known In
this country. When I was in Eng
land, however, I noticed the disease
was very prevalent. Fully 30 per cent.
of the deaths there were from that
cause. ..
ut is noticeable mostly in countries
where there Is constant moisture,
hence Colorado has been visited by
the worm but little. The disease,
here. however. seems to be on the in
crease. In the parts of the stnte where
there is nlkali water the 'fiuke' is
practically unknown. The water seems
to disagree with the animal. The
'huke' is u shell covered parasite which
the cnttle drink with the water. Once
on the inside of yearling, death is
almost certain.
Il intend to do all in my power at
once to stop the spread Of this d sense,
which l do not anticipate Will become
general. although the North Park
Cattle Company's loss seems to be
large.
Just at this time of the yenr. when
the weather is changing, cattle Of all
kinds are very much like human
beings from physical point Of view.
They sicken very easily and die very
quickly II their systems are run down.
And they are quite likely to be vulner-
able to attacks by disease because of
the fact that In the winter their rn-
tions are not over abundant OF select."

turc. which has adjourned, to elect II
United States senator to succeed Ste
