Rocky Ford ought to begin to develop

could offer their produce direct 70 the
consumer. instead Of having to exchange
II for groceries. and the consumer have
to pay a middleman's profit. In these
cold days the man with cedar wood for
sale would have 4 place to offer It and

Legislative Gossip.

The senate knows that Otero
county is represented in its chamber.
Senator Crowley first attracted spe-
ciai attention by his Guggenheim res
olution just prior to the senatorial
election.
This resolution was swore at. mer.
ciIcssiy laid on the table and
the fact Of its introduction wiped
from the record. Last week Senator
Crowley introduced another resoiu-
tion. which possessed more OF merit
than the GugRenheim matter. Its
intent was to bring about the ex-
pulsion or resignation of Senator
Morgan Of Boulder. This was . con-
summation dcvoutly weighed by both
the republicans and democrats but
the republicans hesitated to take ae-
ton looking toward the expulsion oi
ono II their members. Morgan u
a scif-eonicsscd bribe taker and is
obnoxious to the members OF both
houses.
The republican majority was
pleased to have Senator Crowley
tackle the job-one which ought 10
have been done long ago.

The Favorite Recipes of Famous

Miss Viola Allen. the actress, is
one of those American girls who is
inordinately fond of spaghetti, but
perfectly to satisfy Miss Aliens pal
ate, the spaghetti must be served with
beef dressing. This she makes at
ter the following recipe: Take two
onions and two green peppers and
chop them fine; they fry them in two
tablespoonfuls of butter until Il
foams. Add one pound of round
beefstcak that has been cut into
small pieces, and let it cook until Il
has had just time to become brown.
but no longer. Add bayleaf, small
can of tomatoes, salt and paprika,
and let the mixture simmer for about
one hour. Cook the spaghetti in the
usual way, and, when II has been
drained thoroughly, pour this sauce
over it. and sprinkle generous
quantity of grated Parmesan cheese
over all. Miss Allen also delights in
eating gingerbread. provided the gin
gerbread is made from this recipe
which has been in her family foi
many years. Take one cupful oi
butter, one cupfui OF sugar. three
eggs. one cupful of molasses. one ia
blespoonfui each of ginger. cinnamon
and allspiee, three cupfuls of -four

The Enterprise most heartily en-
dorscs the following from the Fort
Collins Courier: Governor Buchtel
is making good in the way of civil
service appointments, as no fault can
be found with any so far made. His
selections for important and rcspon-
siblc positions in the states service
are excellent, showing that he has
in view the best interests of the peo-
pie. Grafters and incompetents are
shown no favors and the appointive
officers are selected from the very
best material to be found in the stale.
All honor to Governor Buchtel."
