Colorado has for a long time been
looked upon as one of the leading states
in this country in the matter of the
variety of its productions. All the
time that 1t has been coming into
prominence on account of its wonder
full resources, il has been sending out
Of the state millions of dollars every
year for old line life insurance prem
iums. Why? simple enough. 1t had
no life insurance company of its own.
The reason for this annual drain was
removed the fore part of the year by
the organization of the Colorado
National Life Insurance Company Of
Denver upon the old line plan. Now
that the reason for this vast drain upon
the resources of Colorado citizens has
been removed, it Is high time that we
stop it. Give your life insurance busi-
ness to n Colorado company. 1t will
help you personally. How? BY keep
ing money in Colorado to be loaned
on your farm, business blocks, etc.
Wouldn't few hundred thousand an
nually thrown into the state make
money cheaper? Wouldn't cheap
money help you?
| am glad to say that many Of the
citizens of this community have
realized the force of this and have
taken policies with the Colorado
National Life Insurance company. /

friends in this community get in line.

The latest wrinkle is to feed chickens
for market by machinery. The feed
ing is done twice day with a patent
liquid food and one man can feed 300
chickens in day. The food is forced
through tube by means of a suction
pump, which in turn Is operated by a
foot pedal. The tube is about ten
inches in length and reaches through
the chickens mouth into its crop.
When the crop is full, the flow of
liquid food stops instantly and the
chicken is not injured in the least.
This feeding by machinery is done
chiefly in the preparation OF roosters
for the market and for finishing the
fattening of broilers.--Field and Farm.

There will be fifty-three Sundays In
this year, an occurrence that will not
happen again for 40 years. This extra
Sunday can be utilized in attending
church, calling on your best girl, read
ing the Scripture, playing with the
children. breaking 2-year-old colt,
going fishing or some other way. One
hundred years from the date you will
probably be paying the penalty or en-
joying the pleasures of the method in
which you choose to spend this extra
Sunday.--M Review. y

Never growl because newspaper
fails to give every scrap of news, so
long as you take no pains to give the
editor information. We have seen
readers who are awfully put out at
times because we make no note of the
arrival or departure of friend visiting
them, or of a local affair or of the
heaven-sent babies that visit their
homes over night. The average news
paper person isn't medium nor a
mind reader, but gets most of his news
the same way the milkman gets his
iniik-by pumping.-Alamosa Courier.

Nearly one and quarter million
dollars is the present that the state
board of equalization has girgn the
transportation corporations Of the
state of Colorado this year in valua-
tions. Despite the fact that the rail-
road valuation already was absurdly
low, being 25 per cent of the actual
value as against 40 per cent on other
property in the state, a further rcduc-
tion was made by majority of the
board, and the railroads, which this
year are more valuable than they ever
have been, will be able, if the figures
stand, to still further escape their hur-
den of just taxation and shoulder 1t on
the small taxpayer, whose interests
the state board should have protected.

JULIA MILLER. A CHORUS
GIRL. IS GIVEN 10 DAYS
Arrested As vasrant on the Streets

Night.

Julia Miller. comedy young woman,
who was for time chorus girl at

1890 o'clock Saturday night by Off
GERS Quinn. Sanford and Bishop. She
was taken to the station and booked
as a yagrant. This morning she was
brought before Police Magistrate Fin
ger and sentenced to serve 10 days in
the house of detention.
To the police the Miller girl told a
long tale of woe. She stated that she
had been hired in Chicago to come to
the local playhouse as a chorus girl and
was to receive SIS a weekend her
board. The show broke up the first
week and after that time the girl states
she has received no compensation be-
yond being provided with two meals a
day at the expense Of Manager Blair
and having her laundry paid for.
To the police she admitted that she
left the theatre over a week ago and
was not in the employ of the theatre
management at the time that she was
arrested
Mr.. Blair showed his contract with
the girl to the police. This provided
that she was to stay at the theatre I'M
til II O'Clock every night and was to
be under the orders of the manager
until that time. The evidence showed
that she insisted upon leaving the thea
tire and had become accustomed to
parading the streets of the city during
the dark hours of night and into the
early hours of morning.
Mr.. Blair was summoned to the DO
lice station after the girl had told her
story and was clOseted with Chief Her.
