Gen. VIM j. Palmer has started a
fund for building big sanitarium at
Colorado Springs by donating 100
acres of land and $250,000 cash.
This will be a great thing, not only

the advertising done by the Springs

Hop men report that hops are grow.

ment to hundreds Of people.
Growers report that from ~ to 10
per cent OF the hills are missing this
year. This is an unusually large
number There are always some miss.
ing hills, but growers attribute the in
creased number this year TO the fact
that the heavy crops Of the last few
years have exhausted the vines.
The great number OF missing hills
will by no means affect reduced

is estimated there are 500 additional
