Baca county is not disappointed. 1t
asked for nothing at the hands of the
state legislature and received nothing
direct. Prowers county asked for and
received one 1900 bridge across the
Arkansas and one 900 one. Las An
imas county received an appropriation
for Sc, 600 bridge across the Las Ami

Baca county has never received state
aid in any way. although we have paid
our share of the tax. Isn't it time for
Baca county to hustle for state aid in
building bridges across it's streams?
Why not have our representative and

ARBoR and BIRD DAY

Because of the vital concern on the
part of the people to propagate the for
est, recommend that Arbor Day be
made an occasion for the further beau
tifying of public grounds and highways
in order that heritage of great value
may be bequeathed to succeeding gen
erations, do request that literary ex-
ercises be given in the public schools as
will serve to instill into the minds of
the youth of this state love for birds
and respect for the laws enacted for
their preservation. l deem it right and
proper that the initiative be taken by
the pupils in our schools, colleges and
universities, since it constitutes an i'm
portant step in good citizenship. l also
recommend due observance by all the
people of the state of Colorado.

The Springfield herald., 1905-04-21

We may not plant many trees on
Arbor Day in Baca county but it is well
to note what Importance. is given this
phase of work and the study of birds
by those high in authority. If we can
not carry out our part in planting trees
we can endeavor to do as the Governor
says, "instill into the minds of the
youth of this state, a love for birds
and respect for the laws enacted for
their preservation. And we are glad,
indeed, to have for print this very day,
a valuable contribution from E. R..
Warren, of Colorado Springs, ornithol-
ogist and naturalist. whom we met last
Saturday. AS stated in this paper last
week, he is here to study the birds and
animals of this prairie country.
We consider this rare treat and
hope that every boy and girl in the
country will read what he has to say.
And indeed, it should interest every
reader of THE HERALD, old or young.

flowers. Notice when the birds come
and so in the spring and fall, how our
little animals live, whether they sleep
through the winter or not, what they
live on Observe when the first spring
blossoms come, and what they are, and
then what next all through the sum-
mer, and what are the last to be seen
in the autumn. You will be surprised
to find out how many different kinds of
each there are. $50 different species of
birds are known to occur in Colorado.
Over hundred species of mammals are
found in the state, and flowers l don't
dare say how many, or rather do not
dare to guess, for have never seen
the number stated.
Of course not all of these are found
in Baca county; some are only found
high up in the mountains, even above
timber line, others in the foothills. still
others on the prairies. Some kinds are
not found east of the Continental Di-
vide, some only in the southern part of
the state and some only in the northern.
But there are enough in Baca county to
make nature study very interesting.
If the birds, mammals and flowers do
not offer large enough variety, try
the insects. See how many different
kinds of grasshoppers you can collect.
You will be astonished next fall when
you come to count them up. A friend
of mine, who has made study of wild
bees, says the number of species of
these insects is astonishing. That oft
en- certain species gets its honey from
one particular kind of flower.
| And so it goes through all the differ
ent branches of natural history, one is
likely to find out new facts all the time,
and the child on ranch has as good a
chance as anybody. Just keep your
eyes open, watch carefully. SO that you
will be sure you are not mistaken, and
remember what you have seen, or make
note on paper. II it is anything very
important or unusual be sure to write
it down. E. r. WARREN.

GREAT CHANGE
From Change in Food.

The brain depends much more or the
stomach than we a:c apt to suppose un-
til we take thought in the matter.
Feed the stomach on proper food easy
to digest and containing the proper
amount Of phosphates and the healthy
brain will respond to all demands. a
notable housewife in Buffalo writes:
"The doctor diagnosed my trouble rs
n nervous affection of the stomach
was actually so nervous that l could
not sit still for five minutes TO read the
newspaper, and to attend to my house
hold duties was simply impossible. l

but medicine did no good.
"AIy physician put re on ill SORTS or

foods. but none OF them agreed with
me. I was almost discoura ged, and
when tried Grape-Nuts I did so with
many misgivings-I had no faith that 1t
would succeed where everything else

There's a reason.
Now why was this great change made
in this woman?
The stomach and the brain had not
been supplied with the right kind OF
food to rebuild and strengthen the
nerve centres in these organs. 1t ls ab-
solute folly to try to do this with
medicine. There is but one sure way,
and that is to quit the old food that has
failed and take on Grape-Nuts food,
which is more than half digested in the
process of manufacture and is rich in
the phosphate Of potash contained in
the natural grain, which unites with
albumen and water-the only three
substances that will make up the soft
gray filing in the thousands of delicate
nerve centres in the brain and body.
Grape-Nuts food Is q sIre road back to

without stirring up a whirlpool; tc
stop and stand perfectly still at q
sign from the rider, and to edge steI
by step to the bank when he heard

The advantage Of having such g
trained companion on a fishing trip is
apparent when one thinks of the king.

a horse, as, standing on the bank, he
was told that right out there are
fish to be caught, but it's pretty deep.
