the consumptive. Canon City has been
asked to take part in this exhibit and
we are preparing a set of beautiful
photographs depicting our horticultu-
raj and scenic attractions. I am sure
these will attract attention and that
every visitor to the Colorado section
will learn something about Canon City.
1t is also proposed by the State Or
ganization to prepare Souvenir
Book" for free distribution to MEM
bers only. According to the prospec-
tus sent us this is to be an attractively
gotten up and handsomely bound lit
tie volume, the mechanical work alone
to cost not less than 30 cents q copy.
Its pages will be devoted wholly to q
description of the climate, topography,
horticultural and agricultural resource
es, stock raising and mining, social
conditions, cost Of living. etc.
Its Genealogical chapter will deal
with the effect of the climate, not alone
on tuberculosis, but on asthma, bron-
chitis, Brights disease, rheumatism,
heart disease, ETC., stating merely facts

brary as a work of reference.
The cost Of this must be met large
ly by popular subscription, each city
having been asked to take a page or
more at a cost of 10000 a page. Ten
thousand copies will be distributed.
This, then, is the scheme the chamber
of commerce committee have endorsed

be successful in raising money enough
to take at least a page in the "Souve-

NEARLY AL coal MINES
WoRkINe EVERY DAY

Most Of the coal mines of Fremont
county are working every day and the
ones that are not doing 10 are the
smaller ones through the county. All
mines connected with the Rio Grande
are working almost full force Of
men and the output Of the Canield.
Fremont and Chandler mines aggre-
gate about 1000 tons daily.
Most Of this coal IL marketed in
Kansas and Nebraska, but some of 1t
is being distributed in Colorado and
Oklahoma points. 1t is not coal that
is being stored by the companies for
winter use. but by the dealers who re-
alize that the storage coal in the coun-
try Is almost exhausted and who ex-
pect TO witness a brisk demand for
the black diamonds this fall and
winter.
Thousands of tons are shipped out
every month and finding market in
these states. 1t gives the men here
steady work and relieves the company
of the congestion following a rush in
the winter time. While the freight
car surplus in the country 10 gradual
ly being reduced, the company and
the buyer now have the assurance Of
getting their coal to Its destination
within a reasonable time. ...
While the mines are now working
steadily. inquiries for coal continue
to come in. Many dealers are now
making inquiries about the Fremont
county product who are said to have
never before purchased or handled
II. The coal 10 gaining . broader
reputation In the eastern and north
ern states, and while Kansas Is coal
mining state, more Fremont county
coal is expected to be shipped In there
this winter than ever before.
Judging from the number Of In
quiries reaching the local coal agency
omces, 1t would indicate that Flor
ence's mines will be q hive Of
industry this fall and winter. This
is also indicated by the early resump-
ton of steady work. While the re-
cent panic somewhat effected the coal
mining industry in other parts Of the
country. there was not noticeable
difference here. This Is due largely
to the nature of the local coal and
the reputation It is gaining In the
eastern country where 1t Is introduced
and on this account our coal is given
the preference.-Florenc Tribune.

several railroads in that state, pre-
venting them from putting into effect
the advance in rates advertised for
August 1. Judge Speer became widely
known five years ago by his action
in refusing to allow the Southern rail-
way and southeastern carriers to in
crease the rate on pine lumber. The
roads posted bond to return the
amount of the overcharge should the
commission decide against them and
when the case after consideration by
the commission, was decided for the
shippers they refused to comply with
the orders Of the court until Judge
speer sustained the order of the court,
and compelled the roads to follow out
the law rs laid down By the commis-
sion.

Editor Record:
Sir: I do not know if the finance
committee of the Merchants associa-
ton has begun its canvass for funds
to carry out the undertakings endorsed
by the committee of the whole viz: The
entertainment of the State Editor
ial association, the providing Of q. ser
les of pictures of Canon City and 'envi-
rons for exhibition in Washington and
elsewhere, and a page of more in the
Colorado Souvenir Book" If not, l
think the public. who will be asked
to subscribe, should know as definite
ly as possible what they are expected
to give money for.
The first, the entertainment OF the
editors, is better understood, and am
sure we are all willing to help make
their visit here pleasant one. The
other two perhaps are less understood.
The scheme briefly is this: From
September 21st to October 18th next.
there will be held in Washington, D.
c., and Internationa lcongress on tu-
berculosis. This is not a congress Of
doctors but of men and women. In
GLIDING physicians who are interested
in this great subject.
The size and importance of this con-
gress is hard to realize at such long
range, more especially by those who
are not interested. The United States
government takes official part, the last
congress having voted the use of one
of the large department buildings for
the exhibit and $4,000. A majority
of the states take part either official
ly or unofficially. All of the Euro
pean governments send official rep
resentatives, besides hundreds OF dele
gates and members. 1t is impossible,
of course, to forecast the attendance,
but one is safe in saying that the ex-
hibit will be viewed by tens Of thou
sands of people.
The Colorado state organization OF
the congress is getting up an exhibit
of our climatic, economic and social
advantages, together with what has
been done in the work of caring for

SaltaS a Fertilizer.

Salt has long been recognized as a
valuable fertilizing agent, especially for
use on light, sandy or worn-out land.
1t is claimed that an oat crop on such
soil is more than doubled by the use of
salt.
Farmers of Northern Vermont have
been accustomed for many years to OBJ
tain their Fertilizing Salt c. S. Page
of Hyde Park, Vt. The Salt he sells is
that which has been used on Hides,
Skins, etc, in his hdehouse and contains
more or less waste matter that really
adds to its fertilizing value. Last year
the demand far exceeded the supply and
Mr.. Pages stock was exhausted early
in the season, so that he was obliged to
disappoint many farmers who sent in
their orders late. 1t is advisable, there
fore, that farmers who intend using
Pages Salt this season should place
their orders early.
The price this year is only $500 per
ton, t. o. b. Hyde Park. The railroad
company makes an especially low rate
on II ton carloads. If you will write
Mr.. Page, he will tell you the exact rate
to your station.
