An Experlment That Failed.

An enterprising citizen of White
Plains, N. Y, was much impressed a
year or SO ago by the clamor raised by
New York health officers and newspa-
pers over the need of pure milk, and
conceived the idea that the public de-
mand for an absolutely pure product
was such that any price would be
paid. Being well supplied with money
he therefore established dairy
which he made the cleanest and most
sanitary in the world. He got together
the finest possible herd of cows, with
their health duly certified, and had
them MIXED In concrete barns by
white-frocked. white-aproned highly
paid mixers. Then he charged Is
cents quart for the milk. but did not
find as many customers as he expect
ed, though he advertised extensively.
The venture did not pay. and now he
is giving 1t up, though it cost him
nearly million dollars. If people
want pure milk henceforth they may
get it without his assistance. He has
found what many have found before
him, that few persons will go above
the market price for commodities,
even to get the best.

Profits of an Orchard.

When single orchard of only forty
acres raises $4,000 worth of apples
in single year, and when the profits
for one season from that forty-acre or
chard amount to $4,000, and when
that is a sample of the orchards in a
certain section of Colorado, the people
of the state need not be wondered at
if they smile at the shriekings of pan
ic that rise out of far away Wall
street.
There is such an orchard in Colo
RADIO 1t is located seven miles from
Delta, Colorado. and it is owned by
A. E. Miller. The passenger depart
ment of the Denver & Rio Grande rail
way, on whose tracks the orchard bor-
ders, got letter yesterday that told
all about it. The orchard is on what
is known as the Surface creek mesa.
The trees are from seven to eight
years old, and the phenomenal Weld is
well vouched for. The only crop is
that of winter apples, and the price is
so high just now that it is no wonder
the happy farmer gains a fortune out
of his little kingdom in a single sea
son. Denver Republican.

Romance To-Day.

To our forefathers each new mani
festation was matter of ocular ex-
citement. The fingers of the cotton
gin took the place of human fingers.
At the coming of ether an amputation
was transformed from scene of tor
ture to a placid process in mechanics.
Crowds gathered to see Fultons devil
boat churn its way slowly up the Hud-
son. or to watch the first locomotive
putting and clanking through the
meadows. Even with the development
of electricity wires stretched taut
against the sky; the strand of cable
might be seen as it began its plunge
beneath the Atlantic. Yet it has re-
manned for the matter-of-fact utiliza-
tion of wireless telegraphy to bring
us, in science, the height of romance,
says Golfers Weekly. To-day a mer-
chant wishes to telegraph to his buyer
in London: forthwith his half-dozen
words are shot to the tip of pole be-
side the seashore, flicked into the sky
and sucked out of space to a lonely
spar on the cost of Ireland. There is
here as much magic of romance as
the world ever seen.

Alfalfa for Cows.

Calves grown on alfalfa develop rap
idly and are ready to become mothers
earlier than when brought through on
other foods. Pregnant COWS fed alfalfa
come in strong and well nourished,
bearing full udders. Milking cows fed
alfalfa hay as a part of their ration
give milk as with no other possible
combination. Alfalfa leaves are a lit
tie richer in protein than wheat bran.
Alfalfa stems cut early and nicely
cured are nearly as digestible as
wheat bran and almost as palatable.
Thus alfalfa may well take the place
of large part of the grain ration
and may be made to form nearly the
whole of the needed protein.

DENVER MARKETS

Denver Union Stock Yards, Dec. l5.
Cattle prices advanced 1Qc to 15c en-
Monday OF last week but later big rrns
and lower prices on the eastern mar
kets had a disastrous effect on trade
here and all the early advance was
lost. Good beef steers and COWS closed
weak to a dime lower than a week age
but the palmer grades are on 15c to
20c and in some cases even more.
Right good feeders are about steady
but there is a wide range between the
good ones and the plain light steers,
the latter being about 15c to 25c lower.
Some good fat steers sold last week ut
34.45 to $3.50 for packers Christmas
trade, but not many got above $4.On,
bulk of the better killers going from
this down to $3.50. A bunch of choice
cows brought $500 with good hcifers
at $3.50 and aload of feed lot cows from
northern Colorado, at $3.65, but later
in the week most of the good COWS sold
at S2.75 to s3.35, with medium kinds
around s225 to s2.65. Bulls awere
higher at $500 to $500 Veals about
steady. Some good dehorned feeders
sold on Friday at $4.00, with BULK CT
the fair to good steers bringing s3.25
to $3.75.
The hog market last week was veiy
erratic prices declining one day 25c to
40c and advancing about that much
the next The market, however, Is
lower than week ago, with prices
now quotable here at $4.15 to $3.50.
Sheep receipts we're very good last
week and considerable trading done.
The market is little lower than
week ago, however, owing to declines
East. Ewes sold at s3.75 to $500,
yearlings at S4.40 and fat lambs at
$3.50 to $5.75. a bunch of choice led
lambs bringing the latter price for

Boy-Dynamiter Pleads Guilty.

Denver.-Kemp " Biglow pleaded
guilty to the four charges against him
in the West Side Court Saturday
when he was arraigned before Judge
Bliss. 1t was setting and pleading day
and it was the day on which it was ex-
pected that the date of Biglow's trial
would be set. When his name was
called, his attorney, ID. b. Ellis, arose
and stated that he wished to withdraw
their former plea of not guilty and mo-
tions that he had previously filed, as
his client had decided to plead guilty
Then Biglow arose, and, in calm
voice without any show of emotion
whatever, entered a plea of guilty to
each of the four charges. The
charges were assault with intent to
kill Governor H. A. Buchtel, Lawrence
Phipps and C. b. Kountze and at
tempting to work confidence game
upon c. B. Kountze.
Biglow was convicted when first
tried of committing simple assault up
on David H. Moffat, which is punish
able by a short Jail sentence. The dis
trict attorneys office thought that the
boy was getting off with too light
sentence and asked the court that the
verdict be set aside. This was done,
and he was at once rearrested on the
four charges mentioned above.
Biglow is the "boy-dynamiter," who
believed that he could send dynamite
to Denver's leading citizens and then
then tell them that their lives were in
danger and get, for doing this, a large
reward.
