FROM REV. WOODWARD.
writes to His Many GoOd1and Friends
From Colorado. Where He Is Spend
ing the Summer

Wagon Wheel Gap, Col, July 10
To The REPUBLIC: Perhaps you and
your readers would like to know how
and where am putting IN the time
during the heated term. I came to the
Gap July 10 in company with my oldest
daughter and her family. Wagon
Wheel Gap is in the Sangre de Christie
range of the Rockies. The altitude is
$500 feet. We are camped on the east
ern bank Of the Rio Grande river, and
just across the river is an almost per-
pendicular mountain 1000 feet high
covered with fir trees, while back Of
our camp is a perpendicular cliff 800
feet high; making the place wild and
picturesque. During the day it is com
fortably warm, but at night and early
morning it is uncomfortably cold. The
river and mountain streams abound in
mountain trout of which we get a good
supply. We have three varieties Of
singing birds-magpies, robins and
murquetaes, the latter being very large,
tame and friendly, but they only stay
with Us about an hour as the cold
makes them keep good hours.
The famous Wagon Wheel Gap
springs are located about mile from
the Gap up Goose creek. The principal
spring is a very large one and very hot
10 degrees. The analysis is soda,
lythia, sulphur, etc. About ten feet
from it is a cold spring, the analysis of
which is white sulphur and ancient
eggs. The large hot spring is famous
for the cure Of stomach and kidney
complaints. The white sulphur, 1
think, would cure almost anything,
even a guilty conscience. But the most
wonderful thing to me is the one spring
so hot and the other so cold and only
ten feet apart, and [ think that hades
and an ice house must be in close prOx-
unity. There are three large swimming
pools, one for ladies and two for men.
They are four feet deep and so hot that
you have to get in a little at time.
About 80 rods from the springs is a
hot soda spring which supplies the
large pools.
My health is not very good, still 1
hope to be able to stop off at Goodland
on my return home if I can find any
one that will be glad to see me.
Yours,
G. II. WOODWARD.

Phillipsburg stands a good chance to

TO the trouble Of getting water at that

TO base the belief that the company is
tired Of the expenditure and trouble

work on the road has been greatly in
creased and every effort is being made
to have rails laid Ito the new town by
the first Of the month. Not long ago
the Rock Island management despair
ed Of having the road in operation by
the time of the opening, because of the
scarcity of competent labor.

DON'T SELL OUT.
Kansas Farmer who Holds on VIII Be
the Winner in a Year or TwO-DOn't
Sacrifice Young stock.

From the St. Louis Republic.
Secretary Of Agriculture Coburn, Of
Kansas, speaks truly when he advises
farmers to hold their young stock
through the drouth AS he points out,
the period of dry weather has fright
ened many into shipping calves and
hogs simply to keep from paying high
prices for feed if the present condi-
tions continue.
Prudent managers will follow Mr..
Coburn's advice. There is little dan
ger that Missouri farmers will do what
he warns Kansas farmers not to do.
Missourians appreciate the Importance
of keeping young stock on the farm.
That is the principal source of steady
agricultural profit in this state. Last
year over one-half Of the corn and fod-
der raised in Missouri was put on the
market in the shape Of livestock.
1t is only within late years that the
Kansas farmer has appreciated the i'm
portance of breeding his own stock.
The small holder of land divided his
quarter section into a cornfeld and
prairie grass pasture. Then he went to
the south and west, where he bought
two-year- oIds, paying prices that were
usually highly profitable to the cattle
kings of the range.
Raising cattle on that basis was
nothing short of speculation. Often
the bank furnished the money with
which the stock was purchased taking
mortgages on the cattle and feed. If
the market happened to be low, the
bank was compelled to take all the pro-
ceeds from the sale and the farmer
had nothing to show for his years
work Sometimes a falling market left
even the bank with a balance in red
ink on the deal.
Conditions have changed. With the
bountiful crops of the past few years
the farmers have taken counsel of ex-
perience. They have begun raising
their own stock. Coincident with the
diversity and rotation of crops, the
value of small herd of livestock has
become appreciated as it is in the east,
where the economies in agriculture are
practiced TO the fullest extent.
This new and more stable condition
is one that Kansas can i'll afford to
lose. As the secretary of agriculture
correctly observes, it will take ten
years to-regaih such position if once
the young stock is sacrificed. Kansas
is out Of debt. There is a fair amount
of fodder on hand, even though rain
does not come within a month. Mis-
souri, is in equally good shape, or bet
ter, for conditions are even more
thoroughly settled now than in Kan
sas. Wise farmers will not only con-
slider the present, but the future. It is
the man who has held on with grim de-
termination that will be the winner
two or three years hence.

RAIN BRINGS RELIEF.
Only Light Showers Fell, But They Made
the First Break IN the DrOuth and
Intense Heat of Two Months

Temporary relief from the drouth
and intense heat Of the past two
months came Monday afternoon in the
form Of a light shower. Tuesday was
cloudy and several light showers fell
throughout the afternoon Clouds
partly overcast the sky all day We'd
nesdsy, and altogether the week has
been cool and comfortable. The rains
we're not heavy nor general enough to
be Of benefit to crops, but with this
break in the drouth and heat, better
things in the weather line may be
looked for from now on.
