MOTHER
 AND CHILD.

Let the mother take Scott's Emulsion for the two; t never fails to benefit them both. One can eattfor two, but nour- ishing two is a different thing. It calls for a de gree of internal strength that the average woman lacks. People of luxury are not very strong by habit; overworked people are weak in some func- tions from exhaustion or their surroundings. .Scott's Emulsion 'can be depend cd upon to overcome such conditions. It is a won dcrful. food for a mother and cMld.

AN APACHE SQUAW
 NOT AN lLLITERATE
Her Reply to an Advertisement for a
 DiShwasheF.

In respect of the two great burning questions of the hour, advertising, and the alleged illiteracy of Arizona as it. lustrating its unfitness for statehood alone, the following from the Eagle Valley (Col.,) Enterprise may be some what in point. A citizen of that place inserted an ad in the above named pa per and just a few days afterward re- ceived a reply which demonstrates that one never can tell where a newspaper is going to be read nor who will read it. It also shows that even the Apache squaws in this country are up to date and follow the newspapers very closely. Here is the ad:
 "WANTED-A dishwasher. No ob- jections to age or color; lady preferred. Apply to w. J. McDermith Avon, Col orado."
 This is the reply:
 Gan Carlos, Arizona, Dec. 31, 1905. MT. w. J. McDermith,
 Avon, Colo.
 My Dear Sir:
 'I saw your advertisement in a pa- per. Would not have dared answer it if it had not stated positively that there was no objection to color. You may be able to judge from my photograph, which I am sending you that I am an Indian. I belong to the Apache tribe and live at the San Carlos reservation. Have lived some in the civilized world and am no longer satisfied to asso- ciate with the members of my tribe so I am willing to link my fate with a white mans. No doubt you are the man I am looking for. I am we'll ed ucated for an Indian. This picture shows me in the native costume. I am considered good looking. I will glad ly be your dish washer if only you will learn my language so we converse in it., for even yet the English seems q cold harsh language to me. I hope you have a good wigwam, as I am a chiefs daughter and am used to the best our tribe could furnish. No doubt you can furnish plenty of "frijoles" and "tortillas." Feeling sure from what you said in the paper that you are not overly particular, l am hoping I may come up to your ideas of a dish washer.
 'Adios me amigo, adios.
 Ever Yours.

To Our Customers.

THE INDEPENDENT moved into new
quarters this week and can now be
found just one block south of its former
location. The new room is much larger
than the old one and the building is Of
much more substantial construction
eliminating many undesirable features
which were necessarily put up with be-
low.
Although our editorial and news gath
ering have suffered much this week. we
feel that we are able to congratulate
ourselves in being able to hand you q
sheet as good as it is. A full line of
job stock is now on hand and we are
able to solicit your orders in any of this
work.
Always glad to have our friends call
on US and hope that the move we have
just made will result in a benefit to you
as well a. to US. We have both phones
and n call on either one of them will
bring US to you If you live in town.

Within the past few days the Delta
schools have been improved by placing
over twelve hundred fest Of the eele-
brated Pennsylvania slate blackboards
in the buildings here and in North Delta.
Delta schools are among the best on
the western slope and the present board
is doing every thing possible to keep
the standard up to date. The addition
of such improvements as mentioned a
bove all serve to increase the facilities
and desirabilities.
Citizens are sometimes wont to feel
aggrieved at the school tax" but after
all the schools are one of the chief ass
cts of growing town and when as good
as those provided for Delta residents,
each taxpayer need feel no other way
than satisfied for ultimately he will
benefit greatly.

Hsdas . Name for niaself.

A New York business man says that
he once had in his employ as Office boy
q lad named Magillicuddy. Naturally
enough this youngster received so many
joking references about his name from
his fellow employees that he became
extremely dissatisfied with it. So when
he applied for place under another
employer in the building he evidently
decided to bestow a new name upon
himself. When the man to whom he
applied asked him his name the boy re-
piled:
Robert Recapitulation."
'That is an odd name, said the man,
after having the boy repeat it several
times. The boy looked surprised.
Haven't you heard of General Re-
capitulation?" asked he.
s'No."
''Why, his name is in all the reports
in Mr.. Blanks office. "-Woman's .

making in all 81, ,Ols.OO. Deducting this
from the amount received for his beets
leaves him net profit of $592.O0.
Mr.. Oscar Holland, of Grubbs Siding,
near Carbondale, who is one of the
largest land owners in that part of the
country and who has always been
heavy potato raiser, writes US that our
field man induced him last Spring to
put in seventy acres of beets. Ten
acres of this was on very rocky ground
and did not yield very heavily, but not
withstanding this, we paid him "a. .8l1.OO
for his beets. He then sold his beet
tops for s175.O0 which made his gross
receipts 81, 1885, 90. He, of course. pur-
chased lot of new machinery to work
this crop. but he still has this and it
will last him for several years. Includ-
ing this, his entire crop cost him in
round numbers s2, 10000, or fraction
over $500 per acre. Deducting this
from his gross receipts. gives him a
profit of s2, 4s6.0O on his entire crop.
Mr.. Holland is highly pleased with the.
outcome of this crop and has signed q
contract for seventy-five acres of beets
next year.
These are but few of the many who
made success of their beet crop this
year, and while some of the others did
not make as much as they expected.
We are glad to say that they are all
contracting with US for beet acreage
the coming season. We also wish to
impress the fact upon all farmers that
We pay practically cash for the entire
crop. Our contract on this point is as
follows:
This Company will make settlement
On or about the fifteenth day Of each
month for all beets delivered during
the previous calendar month";"
We trust that all farmers will take
time to look into this matter, as we
wish to increase our territory, and
would be pleased to have every agri-
cuiturist contract for at least a small
se1e.se, to thoroughly test the profit
ableness Of this business. You will find
that We treat you fairly and will live
up to our contract in every sense of the
word. If we are strangers to you, we
do not ask you to depend upon our
word. but talk with your beet-growing
and we would be pleased to
have you correspond with any of the
parties above mentioned and ascertain
for yourself the correctness of these
statements.
We trust that every farmer will be
able to plant few acres of beets the
coming season and in this way help in
the forwarding of Colorado's greatest
and most lucrative crop.

PROVES FAILURE.
City Starts its old System While
Eighty thousand Dollar Plant
is Idle.

MoNTROSE, Colo, Jan. 2O.-(Spec-
ial. )-Montrose is having trouble with
the new system of water works put in
last fall at cost Of $4,000 The city
brought mountain water 25 miles in an
open canal from the Cimarron r1ver to
the top of Cerro hill and there deposit
ed it in Reservoir which holds 60, 900, 900,
gallons. The water then runs through
a wooden pipe to ting city, Is miles.
The reservoir was filled early in De-
cember and the water turned into the
pipes, but because of leakage, after u.s.
ing water less than 60 days, it i. found
that little remains in the reservoir.
The water had to be shut off yesterday
and the old pumping plant, getting its
supply from the Uncompahgre river,
was started. It will be May l before
the canal will be open so that the reser-
voir can be filled again.
The little remaining water in the res
ervoir will be pumped into a smaller
reservoir built by the government at
the west portal of the Gunnison tunnel,
so that operations at the tunnel will not
have to be suspended. as the govern
ment is depending entirely upon this
source for its water supply.
