To the housewife who has not yet
become acquainted witt the new
things OF everyday use in the market
and who is reasonably satisfied with
the old. We would suggest that a trial
of Defiance Cold Water Starch be
made at once. Not alone because 1t
is guaranteed by the manufacturers
to be superior to any other brand,
but because each 10c package con-
tains 16 ozs., while all the other kinds
contain but ~ ozs. 1t is safe to say
that the lady who once uses Defiance
Starch will use no other. Quality
and quantity must win.

National Guard Officers.

Adj. Gen. Sherman Bell and Col.
James Brown will probably sever
their connection with the National
Guard May 9th. The governor will ac-
cept the resignation of Colonel Brown.
but will urge General Bell to remain at
the head of the state military estab-
lishment.
These are the statements of high
officer of the guard. He adds that the
general will, unless he changes his
mind very soon, refuse to remain in
MS present position, and will retire
from public life for the time being, to
accept one of several good offers he
has received from mining companies.
In the letter sent by the two guard
officers to the governor they named
May 9th as the date on which their
designations were to become effective
This was done in order that the palms
for the st. Louis trip and the visit of
President Roosevelt might not be dis
arranged. No action has been taken
by the governor as yet, but he will
probably act within few days after
his return from the East.
Since the announcement that tie
head of the guard intended to relin-
quish the position that he assumed
scores of letters have been received
at the governors office, supporting one
or another of the numerous applicants
for the position. All of those who ap-
piled before are again in line, and sew
eral new applicants have entered the
lists.-Denver Republican.

expect to have a meeting soon with
the Colorado board in regard to this
matter. The two boards are working
in harmony in regard to the matter.
and the action of Colorado should not
be regarded in any sense as an act OF
retaliation. Without such action as
has been taken by both boards, there
was danger of serious trouble from
this source, but with the cooperation
of Colorado we hope to be able to
stamp out the disease this year. Dip

the line. both on the railroad and at
other points, and the regulations will
be strictly enforced"
