EDWIN \. SnNEMEYER
FOR DISTRICT ATTORNEY

Edwin H. Stinemeyer, the nominee
of the Republican party for the Of
fee Of district attorney of the Elev-
enth judicial district. which is COM
posed of Fremont, Chaffee, Custer and
Park counties. is a young man in
every way fitted for the position he
seeks.
Mr.. Stinemeyer was born in Phil
adelphia, Pennsylvania. May 10. 1876,
and is the son of a veteran of the
Civil war. He came to Denver with
his parents when years of age and
is essentially a western man in all
of his characteristics The year af-
ter coming to Colorado he removed
with the family to Silver ClifI. where
he resided till 1891. and it was there
that he received his early education.
He came to Canon City IL years ago
and has lived here ever since, having
been engaged in the practice OF his
profession here the major portion of
that time.
He graduated from the South Canon
High school in 1894 and in March OF
the following year completed the pre-
scribed course of study in the Cen
tral Business college in Denver. His
ambition was not satisfied with these
attainments and in October. 1885
matriculated n a student for q three

LINCOLN PARK NAN HAS
GOOD CROP OF STRAWBERRlES

Mart Jones. OF 531 Colorado avenue,
Lincoln Park. has what is probably
the best crop OF fall Strawberries
grown in the Canon City district this
year. Mr.. Jones brought to town
this morning nearly two crates of
large. snowy berries of excellent
quality. and, with favorable weather.
will market many more within the
next ten days or two weeks. They
are of the Bederwood variety and
promise a very prolific field unless
interferred with by the frost, as much
so, in fact. as any spring crop, as
the plants are full OF berries in var
ious stages OF development.
Although the bed has an area OF
less than $500 square feet, being 80
yards in length and IL in width, Mr..
Jones has already this month sold
$500 worth OF berries from 1t and
will market as many more II the un-
expected does not happen. After the
crop had been picked last spring Mr..
Jones cut on the tops Of the vines
and has since kept the ground on
which they were growing thoroughly
irrigated. and to that fact attributes
his success this fall.
Mr.. Jones is convinced from his
experiments that there are great pos
sibilities here for the growth OF a
second crop OF strawberries and that
proper cultivation will nearly always
bring its reward.

STATE REVENUES FROM
THE NATIONAL FORESTS

Figures Just made public by the for
est service show that under the new
law requiring 25 per cent Of the gross
proceeds of national forest business to
be paid over to the states and terri
tories In which the forests are To-
Gated. to be used for public schools
and roads. the last fiscal year will
yield these states SAT ,063.79.
The amounts which go to each vary
from 3813.68 for Arkansas to over
$4,000 for Montana. The small
amount for Arkansas is because the
two national forests in that state were
created SO recently that they have
not yet got fairly under way. Okla
homa with one small national forest,
receives $554; Kansas. $644, and the
next smallest after these is Nebraska
with $3.50. Since the forests in these
last two states were set aside from
land naturally destitute OF trees, that
the government might try forest plant
ing on them 1t will probably surprise
most people that they should yield
any revenue at all.
National forest business is chiefly
of three kinds. grazing, timber sales
and special uses, the latter comprfs-
ing the use OF the lesser resources of
the forests and the permits involv-
lHS thc uCNCtophCht VI "uiSi Po"SA- .
II is Interesting to note the states in
which the largest volume OF each Of
these three kinds OF business il done
and study the causes which make
their revenues correspondingly larger.
Montana, California and Colorado
lead In timber sales. In the case OF
Montana and California this fact is
mainly due to the accessibility of the
timber In the national forests. The
fact that the timber can be readily
reached and quickly transported to
market has created 4 heavy demand
which Is reflected in the volume Of
business. Colorado is almost abso-
lately dependent upon the national
forest timber for its mining operations.
Each OF these states will receive over
ests.
Idaho. Utah and Oregon head the
list Of the states in grazing business.
The causes Ia this case are several.
In the frst place these states are sup
piled with more abundant forage,
largely ON account OF more plentiful
precipitation. In some cases the
ranges will support sheep to the acre
whereas the ranges elsewhere will
often support NO more than one sheep
to from four to six acres. Again. the
grazing methods are. ~ q rule, more
intensive In these states. higher class
OF hsrders is employed and a better
grade of stock Us kept Management,
moreover, 10 more intensive. Sheep
are handled in small bands. and the

can be controlled only when closely

10 over 5000. ... -.-..--
California leads In special use busi-
ness, partly because OF the large
amount OF water power developed and
partly because OF the larger poulation
adjacent TO the forests and drawing
upon their resources. The state will
receive as its share OF the national
forest proceeds about $4,000.
