The creamery will start operations
Monday, December 4, and all rapch-
men who have agreed to furnish
milk should be on hand as early rs
possible on that date.
AS there are many dry cows now 1T
will be impossible for all who have
agreed to furnish milk to deliver as
agreed on, but it is hoped that all Will
bring as much as they can.
It is the intent of all to eepfthe
creamery going. 1t will not be a
paying institution for the first year,
but ultimately, 1t is hoped, sde-
quate returns on the capital invested
will be realized.
We understand the creamery will

The Water works.

P. P. Ford, the water works con-

up business in connection with his
contract.
We understand that Mr.. Ford has
agreed with the council, that - soon
as he can get the material to Rifle,
he will commence shipping 1t In,
which will probably take two months.
He will not commence digging for
the pipe line until March, when he
will have the material of every de-
scription on hand, and at which time
it is expected the frost will be out Of
the ground and the work will be
pushed to rapid completion.
1t is expected that less than three
months time will be needed to install
the plant complete in all details.

The meeting was held in Miss LEM

by large crowd of which one-fourth
was leading business men of the town,
which was very gratifying to the
teachers.
Miss Leming presided and was an
able and enthusiastic president.
The parents and patrons gave nn-
divided attention to all that was said
and If they were backward In discus

did her best to make the parents talk,
and closed the meeting with an ex-
pressed hope-that at the next Par

would be more general discussion as
that was the real object of the meet
ing.
"Great movements rarely make
much stir at the outset" Much
credit should be given to Misses Lem

expressed for the advanced idea of
these meeting.

Fruits and Nuts as Food.

Experiments with dietary of fruits
and nuts at the University of California
have shown that both furnish the body
with energy, and the nuts yield some
building material also. The cost of a
diet exclusively of fruits and nuts
varied from IS to IS cents day for each
person, which will compare favorably
with the cost of an ordinary mixed diet
One student gradually changed from a
mixed diet to fruits and nuts without
apparent loss of strength or health. He
was able for eight days of the expert
ment to carry on his usual college work.
and for part of the time he also per-
formed heavy physical labor The arti-
cles are quite thoroughly digested "and
have much higher nutritive value than
is popularity attributed to them" Ths
wholesomeness of long continued diet
of fruits was not taken up.

while he only half reads her letters and
his own grow less and less fervent and

is that he has tired of his early love.
