The A. B. G.. fxceIs.

Having attended other commercial
schools, previous to my enrolment at
Aaker's Business College, Ibelieve 1 can
say that my testimony is based upon
actual experience and proof. find that
the A. B. 6. does not advertise one thing
and practice another, but that a person
can rely upon it in every respect. The
school is strictly modern in equipment,
building and methods of teaching.
With pleasure I recommend it to all those
desiring a good business education.

The president has now come to the
state of declining to talk about the third
term, but is evidently "delighted" with
the perslstency of his admirers. 1t is
suggested he would like to see the repub-
lican national convention deadlocked on
several candidates, and then nominate
him in sheer despair of agreement on
anyone else. Would he take chances on
overcoming the strong opposition in his
own party to a third term and go back
on his plighted word, are the questions
worrying most of the republican leaders

1t seems that Senator Hansbrough OF
North Dakota is theman who first called
the attention Of the president to the fact
that the flickertail state was being
sighted by the proposition of the navy
department to name the first 100000 ton
battleship after the state of New York,
Senator Hansbrough was at his home In
Devils Lake when word reached him OF
the plans of the department. At once
he wrote a long letter to the president
then at Oyster Bay telling him that
North Dakota was entitled to have its
lame given the new ship. The president
was converted by the senator's argument
and when he returned to Washington
following the summer vacation, he
promptly overturned the plan of the de.
partment, and gave North Dakota the
honor asked for by its senior senator
Hannah Moon.

Field Peas for Sheep.

A Wyoming man with the long eye
to good business has contracted with
an irrigation company for the growing
OF 100 acres Of field peas into which
he will turn a bunch of hungry lamDs
early next fall. This is done as sort
of experiment to determine IL the
plains region of central Wyoming can
produce the thousands OF acres OF held
peas as is done in the San Luis valley
of Colorado. The peas will certainly
grow up in that country II the grangers
will only take the trouble OF learning
the nice little science of producing
them in the proper manner. The Wyo-
ming man expects to turn on 5000
lambs from these hundred acres in
habitat condition, and will thus re-
ceive double the amount of money that
could be realized in the old way OF TAX
ing the weanlings directly of the
short grass. The company planting the
peas are guaranteed $3.50 a head and
this is the sum that the sheepman ex-
poets to make In the clear.

Map Of Gan crIstob.I Quadrangle.

A map of the San Cristobal quad
rangle, Colorado, which embraces an
area of about 944 square miles and
comprises portions OF Hinsdale, Min
eral, La Plata and San Juan counties.
has recently been published by the
United States Geological Survey.
This area is one Of the most highly
elevated regions recently surveyed by
the government. 1t ranges in altitude
from about 800 feet to 14.500 feet
above sea level and only very small
part OF 1t is below 5000 feet. The Con
tinental divide extends entirely across
the sheet twice in an east and west d.
rection. swinging around the head OF
the Rio Grande, the source OF which is
a short distance beyond the western
boundary of this area.
There are a few mining settlements
in the northwest part of the quad
rangle and a number of hay ranches
in the lower valleys, but the greater
part of the area is uninhabited and
contains some of the most rugged
mountain country to be found in the
United States. Portions of the San
Juan and Cochetopa national forests
are included in the quadrangle.
Numerous mountain lakes are found
in this quadrangle and from one OF
these the QUADRANGLE takes its name.
Some of these lakes are especially
beautiful. Deer and mountain sheep
are quite numerous and the streams
abound in trout.
