A BARGAIN for Farmers

The New York Tribune Farmer, n
national illustrated agricultural weekly
OF twenty large pages, has no superior
as thoroughly practical and helpful
publication for the farmer and every
member OF his family, and the pub
fishers are determined to give 1t cir
cu1stion unequalled by any paper OF
its class in the United States.
Knowing that every enterprising, up
to-date farmer always reads his own
local weekly newspaper, The New York
Tribune Farmer has made an exceed
ingly liberal arrangement which en-
ables us to Offer the two papers at so
low price that no farmer can afford
to lose the opportunity.
The price of The New York Tribune
Farmer is $1.00 year and The Canon
City RECORD is SIPS year, but both
papers will be sent for n full year II
you will forward sl.5O to The Canon
City RECORD.
Send your name and address to The
New York Tribune Farmer, New York
City, and a specimen copy OF that
paper will be mailed to you.

A BIC ENTERPRISE
Inaugurated by the Park Center
Land & Ditch Company.

The work of laying the wooden pipe
line of the Park Center Ditch company
began yesterday afternoon and will be
prosecuted as rapidly as circumstances
will permit The point of beginning
was at Wilson creek, where siphon
will be put in to take the place of the
viaduct, which was struck by lightning
last summer and destroyed. At Will
son creek there is gulch about l25
feet in depth and 800 feet in width to
be crossed and the pipe line will
descend at an angle something like
forty degrees until the bottom is
reached when an ascent will be made
on the opposite side at somewhat less
gradient and a continuation made
down the valley to the property of the
company.
When the enterprise just inaugurated
is completed the water will be carried
from the point where it taps Oil creek
to Garden Park in a conduit made of

California redwood and its installation
Will cost a large sum of money
Wooden pipe lines of this character
are extensively employed in irrigation
schemes on the Pacific coast, although
they are a comparative innovation in
the middle west
The pipe line being put in by the
Park Center company is about three
feet in diameter and resembles a
gigantic barrel, the slaves which con-
stitute il being bound together by iron
hoops at intervals of every three or
four feet. The redwood boards which
enter into the construction of the pipe
line are about Is feet long, tso inches
or more in thickness and have n
slightly convex surface. so as to make
a circular body when lound together.

The revival services which have been
in progress at the First Presbyterian
church for nearly three weeks under
the preaching OF Evangelist Oscar
Lowery and the singing Of Rollin b.
Holden will close NEXT Sunday night.
These services have been of more than
ordinary interest and have attracted
| large audiences. Particularly has this
been the case during the last week,
when the Sunday school rooms have
been thrown open to relieve the con-
gestion in the main auditorium: Rev.
Lowery is n speaker OF unusual power
and forcefulness and he has accom-
plished much good in directing the at
tentlon OF his hearers to spiritual mat
ters. Mr.. Holden is splendid singer
and one hardly appreciates the power
there is in gospel songs under the lead
ership of n man like Mr.. Holden. You
ought not neglect the opportunity OF
attendir these meetings.

ABOUT THE CENSUS
Some Details of the Recent Cam
vass of the City Made dy the
Various Churches.

The work Of compiling the late census
of the city and its environs, which was
taken few weeks ago under the
auspices Of the various church argani-
cations for religious purposes, has
been completed and the result made
public. In view of the fact that the
count was made in one day by careful
enumerators it is safe TO assume that
it was approximately correct, although
the total figures reached hardly came
up to the general expectation,
1t may be stated that the inmates of
the penitentiary were not included in
the enumeration. nor were the two or
three hundred pupils at Mt. st. Schol-
astica Academy or the inhabitants OF
the Mexican settlement, which clusters
about Smelter hill.
The total population of Canon City
and its suburbs is set down at $3.50, of
which 5000 live in Canon City and
South Canon; the remaining 1852 being
residents of Lincoln Park, Fruitmere,
Four Mile, Park Center and Orchard
Park. The aggregate church member
ship in Canon City and South Canon is
220l, and for the whole district can
vassed it is 2945. The Sunday School
enrolment is 1904 for the city, includ-
ing suburbs it is 2i44.
The total number of families in the
district is 1912. OF which 17l2 were
visited by the census enumerators /;
eight of whom refused to supply the
information asked for. The total MEM
bership Of the families visited is 67s9,
of whom 27Oi are under twenty. one
years Of age. Church preferences were
expressed by 1872 persons, while e23
stated that they had no preference in
the matter. In the territory canvassed
1913 people were found who are affiliat-
ed with churches elsewhere.

WHY WINE FIRST TO HOST
In America "a mere Formally. but In
Italy kcnl Necessity.


The wine was opened dcSrrously by
the waiter, who before serving tic
guests poured few drops into the
hosts glass.
why did this walter give you n 1T
tie wine before helping the rest Of usf''
asked a man of curious mind.
oh" said the host. That's always
done"
Il know it's always done. That does
not answer my question. though. Hers.
waiter the man persisted. you tell
me why when you open bottle OF
wine you pour a few drops into the
hosts glass before serving the guests"
The waiter smiled and answered.
ITS matter OF form. sir: an old
custom, n politeness Its origin lies in
the fact that after the removal OF the
cork there might be left in the neck OF
the bottle little dust or n few spccks
, of cork. The first drops poured out
would In that event contain the dust nr
| the cork and thus the guest were he
served first might get this refuse; hence
the host is given the first drops.
"As n matter of fact. II you know
how TO open wine You have no difficulty
In keeping the hotties neck clean. The
custom, therefore. Is n formality in
America. In Italy. though. II is n real
necessity for over there they pour n
little oil In the necks Of their bottles Of
native wine before corking on the
ground that this makes the wine air
tight. No doubt It does. but II also IN
some cases gives to the FIRST glass from
the bottle n decidedly oily flavor. There.
