THE PALISADE cherry crop has
been very fine, especially so in the way
of prices received for the product The
early predictions of those who were in
after the freeze do not seem to be hold
ing out and Palisade will come up with
considerable peach crop. Visitors in
that section say the peaches are very
large this year. The fruit grower is
glad that Palisade has crop of
peaches and hopes they will get the
ton price for them. On the title page
there is halftone of a peach tree
which was taken near Palisade. In the
culture Of peaches Palisade growers
are ahead of North Fork growers as
they have made it more of study and
their methods are in advance of the
North Forker. When you look at the
picture of this tree notice that while
it is big tree, it is so pruned and
reared that every peach can be picked
from the ground. This method Of
pruning gives as big a bearing surface
as any other method and cuts out the
expensive proposition of picking from
n ladder.-Colorado Fruit Grower

SCHOOLS AND HOMES

1t is said that n movement will soon
be state wide with the object in view
of bringing about a closer relationship
between schools and homes. The club
women of Pueblo about week ago
decided to take action in the matter of
securing constant cooperation be-
tween mothers and teachers with the
expectations of improving the school
work and accomplishing great benefits
in the home life of the children. 1t
was pointed out by Mrs. Sanford Bell,
of the state university, who was pre-
sent at a meeting: "'That the effort
to raise the intellectual physical and
moral standards of our children, which
are being made by our educators and
educational reformcrs all over our lani
cannot be successful until the home
forces are allied with those of the
school. The school cannot raise lis
pupils to n higher plain of living while
the home and social influences are
working in contrary direction One
of the great difficulties experienced by
teachers in getting best results in their
work, is the lack of proper manage
ment of children in the home. The
want of success in making educational
advancement by pupils does not rest
altogether with the efforts of the
teacher. On the other hand if teachers
are made familiar with the environ
ments and conditions in the home life
of their pupils their labors may be
made less burdensome and more salts
factory work accomplished at the same
time. There are good reasons for par
ents and teachers working in harmony
and cooperating in the matter of edu-
eating the rising generation.

twenty years ago. He declares the city
has great future, if the people who
live in it but unite in making it so.
"I see no reason,' he said to Post
reporter, "Why Genwood Springs
should not become the most popular
summer resort in the United States. 1t
possesses every great advantage pos
sessed by other famous resorts, even to
the curative properties of its waters,
and possesses some peculiar to itself,
notably its incompatible mountain
scenery and clarified atmosphere"

The success of Col. Bryan's new
book 1.-THE OLD WORLD AND IT'S WAYS
gives striking testimony TO his hold
on the popular mind. 1t recounts and
profusely illustrates his recent jour
ney around the world. It has been
issued five months and, we are advised
that, in that short period period, four
large editions aggregating Al, 900 cop
+ les have been called for. The reports
of agents, which have been submitted
to US, would indicate that the demand
for it is well nigh spontaneous and
universal-that it exceeds that for any
other book published for the subscrip-
tion trade since the period of Grants
Memoirs. - Col. Bryan's book with
like success depends upon no sympa-
thetic element for its strength. But
it has on the part of the people the
enduring feeling of personal confidence
in the great moral and intellectual
| integrity of the author.
/ 1t has an equally pronounced admir-
alton for his brilliant abilities, and the
untiring energy that enabled him to
cover the world in his noted tour
and to photograph and describe it in
his ininitable way. Without official
place Col. Bryan is everywhere regard
ed, at home and abroad, as a vital
force in American affairs. As stu
dent of men and of government, and
of governmental conditions, his OBJ
servations and conclusions profoundly
interest the people. Hence the great
sale of his book, descriptive Of men
and things seen during his noted tour
around the world and through the Ma
tions. 1t is vitalized by 251 artistic
engravings, from photographs taken
by him or under his supervision, repre-
senting men, places and things that
interested him and that specially inter-
est every American reader. 1t is a
most unique presentation of wonder
fully interesting journey that has
caught the attention of the people,
and met with great demand. 1t is
sold only through soliciting agents.

Hot Air Explorations.

To Walter Wellman the world is in.
debted for new mechanical contri-
vance, the stationary airship. The
old dangerous types of aerial convey
ances are doomed. No longer will the
pages of our newspapers be disfgured
by the tales of parachutes which de-
cline to open, of strange contrivances
of rubber and steel which flap their
wings and dive into rivers, of great
leakable bags of hot air which drag
professors" through trees, bump
them against barns, and put the
scenery out of order. We will have
no more of this. The aeronaut of the
future will spend his summer sitting
upon the Arctic circle beside his air
ship reading the latest novel. Now
and then he will have to stand up to
be photographed. Occasionally he will
be compelled to pose for paintings of
his monarch of the air, terrifying cor
morants by day and making the moon
look uneasy by night. Then in the
autumn, he will come back to warm
er cline and more prosaic existance.
But.our enterprising American jour
nalist has made still greater discov-
ery-the literary Arctic expedition.
From Camp Wellman in Spitzbergen
he flew upon the wings of fancy
straight to the north pole, upon which
he posted an advertisement for Chi
cago newspaper. Thence he return
ed by three different routes to civil
zation and a square meal. Not a
single explorer was fed to the polar
bears on this remarkable expedition;
not toe was frozen.
No man has ever done so much to
popularize Arctic exploration. With
writing material so cheap, such ex-
peditions are within the reach of all;
a fountain pen and wandering imagi-
nation are all the equipment necessary.
How proud we should be that the first
fight to the pole was made by ar
American-and in the language we
love.-Success Magazine.

Gambling and graft in high places

panic the world had ever known. And
they tried to bring it about, too. But

Are those who raise the structure up to-

No dream of literature or art, no strug-
Cling for a name
Debars them from the builders part-the

Remember that the kings of men are

The great, strong men who work all day
while you but play with fame
And leave few charred heaps of Hope

No city would there be for you in which
