Honey =. E.o.l,.n. Food.

Scientific men say that honey is a
much more healthful sweet than sugar,
and has many valuable properties. 1t
is nutritive, and when used freely with
bread makes an excellent food for chill
dren. 1t is laxative and may be used
advantageously in place of medicine by
persons Of sedentary lives. Being also
the daintiest and most delicious Of
sweets-an extract OF blossoms-it is
hardly possible to eat It to an injurious
extent. 1t needs no digestion, as su-
gar does, and even acts as digestive
aid.

Rocky Ford enterprise., 1900-12-07

In tho former times when NIL of this
fertile Arkansas valley belonged to Mex
leo tho rulers Of that nation were rc.
marknbly liberal IN giving away immense
bodies OF land for real or supposed ser.
vices rendered by individuals. Among
these grants was ono OF 100000 ncres to
Vigil and 81. vrain. known ms the Las
Aniinns land tract embracing all OF the
regions south OF tho Arkansas river, cast
OF the mountains and north Of the pres.
On, line Of Now Mexico. Congress de.
cidcd ihnt this grant was unrcasonably
large and gave claimants 100000 acres
and opened up this portion OF Colorado
to entry and settlement. Complicated
legal questions nrosc. and after the cour,
ot land claims was instituted, j; was
argued that the court had no Jurisdiction
over the Las Animas grant and tha, the
net OF congress had left ioopholes fatal to
the clnims Of settlers. The suit jus. de-
cidcd by the U. S. supreme cour. involv.
ed most of the counties of Pueblo. Otcro,
Bent. Las Animas and Huerfano. which
now include some of the mos, thriving
towns IN the state. The action of the
court removes all clouds ON
titles within the grant boundaries.
