COOLING SUMMER BEVERAGES

On warm summer days, when a glass
of water does not have as refreshing
an effect as may be desired, try one of
the following beverages.
Homemade Soda Water-Make Il
sirup with three pounds of sugar, onc
and one half pints of molasses, one
fourth of pound of tartaric acid, one
half ounce of sassafras and two quarts
of boiling water. If bottled, well cork
ed, and kept in cool, dark place, this
sirup will keep for a long time. To make
refreshing drink, stir two tablespoon
fuls of the sirup and one half table
spoonful of soda in Il glass full of
cool water.
Lemon Vinegar-Keep a jar of vine
gar, into which may be put the lemon
peel not used in cooking. A little of
this in glassful of sweetened water
is cooling.
Raspberry Vinegar or Shrub-Put
three pints of raspberries in an earthen
jar, pour over one pint of cider vinegar,
cover, and let sand for twenty-four
hours. Strain this liquor through "a
double thickness of cheese cloth, and
pour it over another three pints of the
berries. Let this mixture stand for
twenty-four hours, then strain again.
To each cupful of juice add one half
pound of sugar. After this has been
boiled twenty minutes, bottle the sirup
and cork. For use it is to be diluted
with water.
Jelly Water-This beverage is equal
ly refreshing when made with currant,
crabapple or barberry jelly. Add one
half cupful Of cold water to two table
spoonfuls of beaten jelly and lemon
| juice to taste.

CHICAGO GETS
GOOD SOAKING

CHICAGO, Aug. 13-Chicago was
half flooded last night by a heavy
electrical and rain storm, the first good
soaking which this vicinity has receiv-
ed in weeks. Lightning struck in many
places within the city limits, in some
cases destroying electric feed cables
and cutting off light and power. In
the downtown district practically every
basement within the loop was flooded,
the sewers being inadequate for the
rush Of water.
Most of the basement cafes and
restaurants in the loop district were
abandoned by their guests because of
the water which flowed into the places
from the streets or backed up through
the sewers. The storm lasted about
two hours.
All the street lights from the river to
Twelfth street on the south were put
out of commission and those thorough
fares which did not contain a liberal
sprinkling of all night restaurants
were in darkness. The worst feature
of the electrical display was the dam
age to electrical cables. 1t is reported
that the entire lighting and power sys-
TEN ope. ated by the drainage canal
trustees was so heavily damaged that
the city bridges are likely to be with
out motive power tomorrow. In this
case, no boats can enter or leave the
Chicago river.

BOARD OF TRADE SMOKER FRIDAY

relative to taking hold of the project
and this subcommittee will report at
the meeting tomorrow evening.
The Rifle people felt that they were
not in position to handle the fair this
year and consequently took the matter
up with the Board of Trade but the
advisory committee did not feel that
they should make a decision without
consulting the business men generally,
especially as the shortness of the time
for making arrangements for the event
complicates the matter.
Action on this matter dependent up
on the report of the subcommittee will
be taken at tomorrow nights meeting
and number of other matters of CON
siderable moment will also be given
thorough discussion.

sHosHoNE ROAD IS 1MPAssABLE

As result of the storm of Monday
night and yesterday morning the state
road up the canon will be out of COM
mission for several days. and possibly
cured at intervals for several miles
having rendered it at present impas-
sable and necessitated the employment
of n considerable force of men in re-
pair work.
Five slides occurred within the city
limits and today force of eight men
was put to work by the city while the
county will employ a number more at
various points along the road. Work is
being rushed and it is hoped the roao
may be cleared before Sunday.
AS an after effect of the storm, an
other slide occurred yesterday after
noon near Dotsero where mud and rock
covered the roadbed to depth of four
feet for about 75 yards. All trains
were delayed, the westbOund passenger
due at 1922 p. M. not reaching here
until after Q clock this morning. East
bound trains were held this side of the
slide.
Further delay in traffic was caused
today by minor freight derailment
this side of the tunnel and another
near Cardiff on the Midland.

derfu| Medicinal Properties
Of GIenwood Springs
INTENDS TO RETURN

That the waters of Glenwood Springs
are in their medicinal qualities the
finest in the world is the opinion of N.
kantrowitz, prominent citizen of
Leavenworth, Kansas, who has just re-
turned home after stay in this town.
The statement is made in the course of
an interview with Mr.. Kantrowitz
printed in the Leavenworth Post which
says:
Mr.. Kantrowitz went to Glenwood
Springs about two months ago for the
benefit of Mrs. Kantrowitz's health, as
she has been an invalid for the past
three years, and much of the time,
unable to help herself. Previous to 60
ing to Colorado she had been at Hot
Springs and other health resorts, but
had received no benefit. When he left
Glenwood Springs she was greatly i'm
proved and in a fair way to regain
her health. She was able to get
around and could wait upon herself,
and as he said felt like a different
person.
He thinks the waters of the springs
are the finest in the world, having 1877
degrees of heat, the medicinal qualities
of which are marvellous in the opera
tion. Then, he says, the caves where
the hot steam comes up out of the
earth, are invigorating and will build
up any broken down constitution.
He will return to Colorado the latter
part of the week, but expects to bring
his family back to Leavenworth before
cold weather sets in.
Mr.. Kantrowitz says he has met
number of former Leavenworth people
there. among them being former State
Senator Taylor and Prof. Evan. Tay-
lor is practicing law and Prof. Evans
has fine fruit farm which is proba
bly, worth about $4,000. A few days
before he left Glenwood Springs he met
Captains Uline and Cavanaugh, who
were on their way from Utah to Wy
oming, but who were in the city for =
couple of hours, waiting for train con-
| nections.

POULTRY NOTES.

Clean out the nest boxes often. You
would not like to have to sit in a
nasty chair good while every day.
Five good hens are worth more than
twenty poor ones, and the good hens
will not eat any more than the poor
ones, either.
We try to get our chicks to market
before we are compelled to feed them
much mill stuffs. That costs more than
the feed which they can pick up about
the farm.
When you are selling the roosters,
save out some for your own use. /
mean one or two for leaders of the
flock and a few for dinner now and
then when you wan, good chicken
potpie.
Not half the farmer folk give their
hens enough to drink. They suffer
lot for the lack of water. No matter if
you give them plenty of sour milk or
butter milk, don't leave out the water.
Nothing is so good for them.
Take it one year with another, hens
will bring in more clean money, ac-
cording to the amount invested, than
the cows will. You don't believe that
That is because you have not kept an
account of either the hens or the cows.

yourselves.

BIG SUGAR BEET CROP IS GER
TAIN

Despite the fact that the sugar beet
crop in the northern and southern parts
of the state shows considerable fall
ing off from last season, the western
slope will have banner year if no un-
favorable conditions spring up in the
next 80 days, says the Colorado Springs
Telegraph.
According to E. C. Sharer, secretary
of the Western Sugar & Land company,
which operates the beet sugar plant at
Grand Junction, the crops in the Gun
nison and Grand valleys, from which
the company draws its supply, are
making a record showing. Tests taken
so far indicate that the yield will be
better than 12 tors 10 the acre, and, so
far as can be determined at present,
the beets will carry an increased per-
centage of sugar.
Last year the yield was about II
tons to the acre.
In addition to the increase per acre,
about 1000 additional acres were put
in beets this season.
Reports from the northern and Ar
kansas valley fields indicate that the
yield will show considerable decrease,
due to water shortage. The loss in
the northern fields will be about 40
per cent, and in the Arkansas valley
about so per cent.
