HOW TO KEEP WELL.

Every woman would enjoy life much
longer and much better If she would
take rest every day. Even If she has
very busy day and is PRAISED for time
she must take few moments for rest,
being perfectly quiet in body and mind
We need to set the standards of health
very high; in order to be well you must
be glad and cheerful Sometimes
women think that they are pretty
healthy, and that they can afford to be
careless, but this is not true. Everyone
needs exercise and rest, and should
know how to take it. These are very
strenuous days, and we are always in q
rush and hurry, so that we need all the
more to have some repose. 1t is always
a good plan to make change. If you
are doing certain work, and using only
one set of muscles, try some other kind
of work. The brain is often rested by
doing some simple physical exercise.
Reading an interesting book or listen
ing to good music is often a great help
when the mind and body are weary. 1t

easiest and the best way. Many women
do not know how to sit, stoop or walk
properly. Many people feel tired at
the end of walk beceuse they do not
know how to walk properly, but one
should feel fine from the effects of
good walk in the open air. Every
woman should take walk each day of
her life. 1t tones up the whole system,
aids digestion, and keeps the body in
good condition. Someone has said,
indigestion and the American plague,
dyspepsia, work their evils slowly, but
surely, to cut off our best men and
women in their prime. and rob US of
their richest products, and of their
maturest wisdom"

Charles w. Miller and family arrived
last week from Denver with car load
of household goods, farm implements
and live stock. They have purchased a
fine ranch of 320 acres on Grand View
Mesa and will make that their home in
the future. They make no mistake in
settling here for there is not better
country on the face of the earth. This
section of the country is settling up
more rapidly than ever before and the
class of citizens is of the very best. We
wish these latest arrivals the best of
success, and there is no doubt now but
that they will meet with it.

living temperature of the room, the
buds in due time began to swell and the
leaves became of full size before the
buds on the rest of the tree had started.
Similar experiments have been tried
with other plants and with similar re-
suits.
In the Cornell experiments mulch
was placed about number of trees in
the orchard. Various materials were
used for the purpose, and the expert
ments were successful in holding the
snow and the frost for many days after
the unprotected ground had thawed out.
No difference in the time of bloom was
noticeable between the mulched and
unmulched trees.
These experiments go to show that
plants start into growth in the spring
largely Independent of root action and
that the plant food used is drawn from
the reserve materials which are stored
in the tissues of the plant. Hence,
keeping the roots dormant will not
materially affect the period of bloom,
if at all. And, moreover, if frost could
be kept in the ground by any system of
mulching, or by other means, and if
held there for several weeks beyond the
time when trees start into growth,
injury would probably result. This
would be true for the reason that much
plant food and moisture are used when
new growth starts and time would
soon come when the reserve material
would be exhausted.

MuIching Orchards To Retard
Period of Bloom.

Many people at the present time are
interested in methods of preventing
injury by frost to fruit buds and bios
SONS in the spring of the year. The old
question of the possibility of retarding
the period Of bloom by retaining frost
in the ground and thereby keeping the
roots dormant has very naturally been
revived. The term "old question" is
used advisedly. since glance through
the early horticultural literature will
reveal the fact that the possibilities Of
this method have been discussed for
many years.
Just how this scheme would work may
be illustrated best by the results Of
experiment. Several years ago, at
Cornell University, on the 18th Of
February, a branch of nectarine tree
which stood close to the horticultural
laboratory was drawn into the office
through the window. Here, under the

(Hotchkiss Herald.)

At tho residence of the brides par
ents, Mr.. and Mrs. Will Feely at high
noon on Monday, June 18th, Rev. Tyre
officiating, Miss Matte Feely and Mr..
E. Clair Hotchkiss were Joined in holy
wedlock.
For the happy occasion the house
was beautifully decorated with flowers
and smilax. Only a few friends and
the relatives of the contracting parties
were present to witness the impressive
service.
Mr.. James j. Girardet of Delta and
the brides sister, Miss Carrie acted as
best man and bridesmaid.
After the ceremony, and congratula-
tions had been extended to the happy
couple the guests repaired to the din
ing room where dainty wedding
breakfast was served. The dining
room was prettily decorated in green
and white making the effect very beau
tiful.
The bride was gowned in an elegant
white dress and carried Brides roses.
The groom wore the conventional
black. Miss Agnes Hall was lucky and
caught the brides boquet which is an
indication that she will be the next
BRIDE
Both of these people enjoy the high
est respect of the entire community
and their wide circle of friends rejoice
with them and join in wishing them
many years of happy married life.
Many elegant presents were received
by Mr.. and Mrs. Hotchkiss from their
many friends, consisting of silver and
cut glass, all of which are useful and
ornamental.
The young couple will reside at the
Hotchkiss home just west of town and
the Herald joins with the whole COM
munity in wishing them happy mar
ried life.
