is just finishing very large crane
at its shops near the Rio Grande
railroad, for doing heavy work,
such as loading and unloading
engines. Heretofore this work
was done mostly by hand, and this
continuance will prove a time and
money saver The shops have
turned out two different rope
sockets to use with wire cable.
These were made to order, the
persons wanting them claiming
that they were unable to have
them made either in Denver or

being installed and upon the com

some OF the ore treated by other
mines by mill near there. Two

The Nrt Of Camping.

S0OME very practical advice for women
N campers is given by Martha Conan
in an article with this title in the
Recreation number of The Outlook,
just published. incidentally the de-
lights Of camping out are engagingly set
graphs. Here is what this writer has to-
say about an ideal bed for campers
Rubber mattresses are good and sleep
ing bags are excellent, but in all my expe-
riences as a camper 1 have found nothing
so satisfactory or SO comfortable as the
bed built of fresh pine boughs. When
these beds are carefully constructed, there
isn't, to my mind, a hair mattress in the
universe that can compare with this pri-
mitive but deliciously comfortable affair.
It you are stopping oEsy two or tree
nights in one spot and then going on in
your search for game or for scenery your
guide will not take the trouble to make
your bed in a very thorough manner. He
will simply heap up some freshly cut pine
boCghs and arrange them with the soft
green needles for the top layer of the bed.
The truly satisfactory bed Of pine bougha,
requires some time and some skill to con-
struct. and not every guide who ipnabits
the Quebec or Aroostook pine jungles
knows how or is willing to bother with
making one properly In the first place.

bed, and shorter ones are put across the

large freshly hewn boughs to. build the.
bed up to the height Of the box sides On
top OF these boughs softer ones are laid,
with the new green parts on top to form
covering for the sprtngy moss. When
plenty of the soft green needles are put
over the other boughs you have bed that
is at once deliciously soft and comfort
able. The best part OF It is that the aro-
