\ heading in a newspape

A heading in a newspaper reads: Life of Jefferson Da- y.s in Demand" It seems contradictory, but is frequent ly a fact that the longer a man has been dead. the more his life is in demand, While a man lives, the world dwells more upon his weaknesses and shortcomings. When he is dead and in no ones way, it Is easy to secure a unanimous vote that he sits on the right hand of the eternal throne and sings happy susannahs while the flap of his wings keep time to the twang of his golden harp.--Prescott COur' fer.

About five million dollars worth
of hogs are shipped into Colorado
each year from Kansas City and
Nebraska, and yet hogs are fat
tened more cheaply in the pea
growing sections of Colorado than
in any other place in the world.
In the San Luis, valley, many
farmers are growing field peas at a
total cost for labor and seed of
81 80 per acre. Hundred of acres
of good field peas have sold in the
valley this year for $500 per acre.

at this price. An acre of good
field peas will produce gain of
400 pounds on hogs. At this rate

There is very little expense in
fattening hogs in the San Luis
valley The peas cure on the
vines and are not harvested but
remain in good condition ust as
they grow until they are eaten. In
many places flowing wells furnish
Il constant supply of water, and
the only extra cost in feeding is
the cost of the salt the hogs need.
Under these circumstances pork is
now being produced at one-third
to one-sixth of the cost of pro-
duction in Iowa and Illinois.
Yet, within a month, the writer
has eaten bacon in Salida, the
northern outlet of the valley, that
was shipped in from Chicago and

If one-fifth of the tillable area
of the San LUIS valley was de-
voted to the raising of feed for
hogs. one million could be market

MOVING PICTURE
 SHOW TAKES FIRE
Crossed Wires Cause Blaze In the Film Room, But Patrons Make Exit
 Without Trouble.

About fifty patrons of one of the Twen- tieth street moving picture theatres were disturbed right in the middle of the per- formance last night shortly before 8 o'clock by an incident far more realistic than the picture which was being flashed on the canvas before them.
 The drama being flashed before them had just reached the point where the villain was about to choke the heroine to death for refusing to marry him when where the picture machine is stationed and caused a flash of fire which set the building on fire.
 There was considerable excitement in the flames could get much headway the place was empty. The long hall has two large doors as exits and no trouble re- suited from the excitement.
 Before the fire department could get to the theatre, which is on Twentieth street between Third and Fourth avenues, the wires, which continued flaming, had set nearly the entire room, small one, in which the machine Is stationed, on fire. The flames were not eXtinguished until after the machine, the switchboard, WIT ing and asbestos papering in the place had been burned out. The paper on the walls in the main audience room was badly smoked and wet and will have to be taken off and the walls recovered. Tho loss Is estimated at between $500 and S750
