WHEN THE SHOES ARE DAMP.

Much advice is given from time to
time IN regard to the care Of young
sters' shoes as they come in from
school, wet and misshapen from contact
with wet pavements and the uncon-
fessed wadng in puddles, which is sure
to delight the heart Of the small boy.
But with all this advice about keeping
the children's shoes in good condition,
those belonging to the older people
are usually allowed to take care Of
themselves, though they may be Of
greater Importance and quite as often
damp.
Few people give proper care to their
shoes, says the American Cultivatpr
They come in damp, tired, cold, per-
haps, and possibly not in the best Of
tcmpers, fling their shoes off impatient
ly, get into slippers as quickly as poss,-
BILE, and sit down TO rest, forgetting
that their shoes will be in scarcely
wearable condition by the next morn
ing.
If every one would invest in n quart
or two Of good clean oats, and keep
them in a bag in the dressing room
they would have at hand the means
Of putting their shoes in good condition
With very little trouble and less cost.
As soon as the shoes are taken Off,
lace Dr button them mp, and fill them
about two.thirds full Of oats, shake
them down well. then tie in handker-
chief a parcel Of oats as large as can
be pressed into the top Of the shoes to
Gil the remaining space and put the
shoes away until wanted, The oats
absorb the moisture in the shoes, and
in absorbing it the oats swell cOnsd-
arably, and the constant pressure on
the leather keeps the shoe in correct
shape ana prevents that uncomfortable
stiffness and rigidity always noticed
when leather has been wet. A little
trouble and care of this sort will save
many n pair of shoes, and will in all
probability save many corn from be-
ng formed by the pressure Of shoes
hardened from dampness.

Storage Co. The company own large
number of reservoir sites in Alpine
county, including several small lakes,
upon which the company has made
considerable Improvement. Several
of the lakes now have restraining
dams at their mouths to hold back the
water until the dry season when it will
be turned down for use on the second
crop of alfalfa and late grain. Every
year work is laid out and completed.
The Company has some excellent sites
for reservoirs, and if capital was avail
able reservoirs of sufficient capacity
could be erected to supply water in
ample quantity to forestall the posi-
bility of shortage during the dry sea-
son.

Valley.
Arrangements are being made to
entertain the visitors with all the
usual pastimes, such as horse races,
shooting tournaments, etc. coupled
with grand ball in the evening. A
large platform will be erected in

there is nothing better as a milk pro-

ing ore. William Dangberg is the
President and Earl Christensen the
Secretary, and the company is capt.

Since the rich discovery the ledge
has been traced to the other side of
the hill down into Red CANYON.
Several parties have located extern
sions to the original location and as
says taken from the new claims show
up well in gold and silver, gold predom-
mating. The Mount Siegel Company
possess some of the most promising
property in the County, and the
placing of block of its stock on the
market at cents is to obtain working
capital with which to pursue the
work with all the vigor possible.
Their ledges are now being thorough
ly and systematically prospected with
assays taken every other day to de-
termine the values as the work pro-
crosses. Ore from the rich discovery
is now being hauled to the mill to be
put through as soon as the mill is able
to handle it. There is now being put

headed grand procession leading to
the dance platform.
Dancing began in the afternoon but
did not take on the enthusiasm of the
occasion until in the evening when the
merry throng began to arrive i'm
wagonloads from every part of the
valley.
From eight O'Clock until the sun
arose the next morning the floor was
crowded. The Schutzen Fest being
the first social event on this side for
som etime and the known hospitality of
the German people attracted a large
crowd. All the towns in the county
sent their contingent as also a number
from Carson, Fredericksburg and
Woodfords. Promptly at midnight
most sumptuous feast was served to
the multitude of hungry guests. The
tables were loaded with all the good
things of the season, and the way that
they ate was ample evidence that for
good cooks and housekeepers we must
look to our German friends. Mr..
Luhrs and others who had the festival
in charge are to be congratulated for
the immense success of the 1905
Schutzen Fest.
