Move to Mancos.

The officials of the Montezuma Ma
tional Forest have completed arrange
ments for three rooms in the Bauer
Bank Block and on July 1st will move
bag and baggage from Durango and
establish permanent headquarters at
Mancos. This msve was prompted by
the fact of the more convenient loca-
tion of Mancos to the Montezuma For
est and therefore the best location for
headquarters. There are five of the
officers in all who will come to make
their home with US. They will find
Mancos fine little town and an agree
able and pleasant place to live in.
Supervisor Show, so we are informed,
is to be given another division of the
National Forest, and in his stead an
other man will be sent here as super
visor. Mancos is gradually coming into
few things her convenient location
and natural advantages so abundantly
fits her for. .-Mancos Times.

Old Fair Association of Delta county
and that which held fair last fall
have consolidated and that meeting
to further arrangements for a big
Delta County Fair TO be held here this
fall will be held at the Court House to-
night. The next Delta fair will be
held probably close TO the middle of
September, though some express a
wish for it to be held in the early half
of October, after the sther fairs are
over with, and at time when the
ripest and best of our fruit and field
products can be shown in all their lus-
cious splendor. The INDEPENDENT be-
lieves that the October idea is a good
one, rs all the crowds and remnants
could be drawn from other fairs, and

LISTEN TO THE MOCKING BIRD.

With earliest dawn the throat of this
greatest of all warblers is swelled al
most to bursting;
I'm dreaming Now of Delta, -
And the song goes on, reaching for
every new note imaginable, while the
ones being sung are moulded at the
songster's fancy into strains SO musical
as to almost take the breath away.
After glance from wind-swayed
perch of cottonwood over fields and
orchards, the songster pauses just long
enough for breath, then:
'l'm Dreaming Now of Delta,
Comes as the ever welcome, ever
constant prelude to the charm of old
and new medlies to follow.
Was there ever another such song
ster as our own Mocking Bird?
Was there ever another such a
booster?
What pen could write the music of
such song, describing all our fields
and soils possess? Telling of the trees
and the rivers-the meadows, the air,
the earth, the sky? Of swaying bough,
of falling dew! OF growing grain, of
ripening fruit!
And so that wonderful song goes on.
with one marvellous throat to take it
up when another shall have been stilled
forever.
We shall always have that glorious
burst of melody from our Springtime
Booster:

with forenoon and afternoon sessions,
and where practicable, popular even
ing lecture.
The topics discussed are those of the
greatest interest to the community
where the Institute is held and the
lectures will be practical helps to
money making.
Among the subjects to be considered
are, the handling of the soil to maintain
and increase its fertility; preparation
of seed bed; seed selection and breeding
raising, harvesting and marketing field
crops adapt ed to Colorado; irrigation;
farm management; farm machines,
motors and buildings; breeding, feeding,
handling and judging of horses, cattle,
sheep. hogs, and poultry; dairying; pre-
vention and treatment of ordinary
diseases of live stock; judging for
soundness, sanitation and hygiene of
live stock; growing ard marketing of
small and large fruits; gardnering,
forestry, insects, and diseases of plants

ming, building, care, and sanitation of
the home; clothing, sleeping and the
amusement of the family.
The people where an Institute is to

place for holding the meeting and to
get out good audience. They should
thoroughly advertise the institute
through the papers and with the posters
furnished by the College, and should
see that everyone in the community has
a personal invitation to attend. They
should furnish at least six pieces of
good music.
The popular way of holding these
summer Institutes is to hold them in a
grove, and have a picnic dinner to
which everyone in the neighborhood is
invited to attend
To secure the greatest profit from
Farmers Institute, all the people in
the community should attend and be-
come interested in improved methods.
Every farmer, his wife and children.
and every business man, his wife and
children should receive such pressing
personal invitation from the local COM
mittee that they will become interested
and will attend.
