Rev. Irl R. Hicks 1908 Almanac.


To say that this splendid work of
science and art is finer and better than
ever, is stating it mildly. The demand
for it is far beyond all previous years.
To say that such results, reaching
through THIRTY YEARS, are not based
upon sound sense and usefulness, is an
insult to the intelligence OF the millions,
Prof. Hicks, through this great Alma
nae, and his famous family and scien-
titic journal, Word and Works, is doing
n work for the whole people not ap-
preached by any other man or publica-
ton. A fair test will prove this to any
reasonable person. Added to the most
luminous course in astronomy for 1908,
forecasts of storms and weather are
given, as never before, for every day in
the year, all charmingly illustrated
with nearly two hundred engavings.
The price of single Almanac, including
postage and mailing is THIRTY CENTS.

Rio arande Broad Gauge
Rails Get Into Creede.


a special dispatch to the Denver Re
publican, under date OF December 7th,
says: The broad gauge rails on the
Denver & Rio Grande railroad have
been laid to the city of Creede and the
division superintendent has instructed
local train crews between Creede and
Alamosa to take all narrow gauge cars
and engines TO Alaniosa tonight and
put in their places the broad gauge
engines and cars. Tomorrow morning
the new system will be substituted for
the old between Creede and Alamosa.
1t is said to be an assured fact that
the railroad will be extended from
Creede through the Antelope park coun-
try to Durango early in spring. The
route selected is along the banks of the
Rio Grande river, through the Bear
creek country, which has been consid-
cred one of the best gold districts in
Colorado. 1t will also traverse the sui
phur bed country, which has been in
litigation in the courts and contested
before the state land board for the last
lS months.
