One of the saidest deaths that has
afflicted this community occurred last
Friday at her home about three miles

was surrounded by sorrowing relatives
and friends who with bowed heads
and heavy hearts listened at the solemn
services. This death is peculiarly sad
because the deceased was much be-

of the representatives of the National
Civic Federation was unsatisfactory
and that the entire matter of arrang-
ing for a settlement was left with Pres
ident Theodore j. Shaffer. The board
in it's sessions of three days has been

SAIL M'KINLEY WOULD BE NEXT
ians Celebrate Attempt on Presi-

McKeesport. Pa, September s.-Two
hundred Italian anarchists celebrated
the attempt to assassinate President
Mckinley today al Guffey Hollow, a
mining hamlet across Youghiogheny
river from Buena Vista. Beer, whiskey,
speeches, songs and praises for Czor-
gosz were the order Of the day. 1t was
started and led for years by Garcia
Ciamcavilla, who now lives at Spring
Valley, Ill. and edits The Firebrands
the anarchists organ Of Chicago. When
Bresci assassinated King Humbert. he
declared that Mckinley would be the
next victim OF the anarchist plots. He
also drew up resolutions praising
Bresci, which were published in Pitts
burg newspapers. Since moving away
the Italians say he has still been an ac-
tive spirit in the Guffey Hollow group.

same cause, acid and other poisons in

WORTH MORE THAN SILVER.
Colorado's Fields of Alfalfa Exceed Her
Mines In Value.

Colorado's Fields of Alfalfa Exceed Her
Mines In Value.
Great as is the wealth of the state
of Colorado in silver she has a far
more valuable product in the royal
purple alfalfa that supplies fodder for
the innumerable herds that the
plains and feed in the valleys. Last
year the value of the alfalfa crop was
placed at $40, 900. 900. yet hat does not
represent it's c~ontributory worth. In
1862 the introduction of this grass into
the state solved the problem of forage,
which up to that time had puzzled the
pioneers, who had not been able to
raise successfully any other form Of
forage. Alfalfa made possible the great
stock growing industry of the state.
Last year the aggregate number of
horses, CATTLE, hogs and sheep, accord
ing to the assessors returns, was 4,OOo,-
900. valued at $45, 1000, 900. Excepting
the range sheep and cattle and some
horses in the cities alfalfa formed the
greater part of the food of all these
animals. Thus dairying. a new but
rapidly developing industry, depends
on the alfalfa. The great grain farms
and potato ranches need this product
as well. Alfalfa is peerless as a soil
%renovator ond enricher. Its long roots,
penetrating to a depth below the sur
face that other plants cannot reach,
gather the needed elements and, decay
Ing, liberate them for the benefit of
future crops. The Colorado farmer has
learned that rotating crops of wheat
and alfalfa make the average yield of
wheat in Colorado 25 bushels to the
acre, while the average for the whole
country is less than IA bushels. The
same rotation has produced the famous
Greeley potato, as inimitable in its way
as the Rocky Ford melon. The Colo
RADIO stock raiser has discovered that
cattle may be fattened at home with
out sending them to corn states, and
that alfalfa produced beef. not tallow.
He has discovered that pigs turned into
the alfalfa patch during the summer
are ready for market in the fall, and
that alfalfa mutton" brings the top
price in the east. The small rancher
knows that his chickens, geese, ducks
and Belgian hares are finer for the
alfalfa that forms part Of their daily
food, and that his alfalfa honey equals,
If it does not excel, the delicious white
sage honey Of California.
