BAKER & BIGGS
MERCANTILE COMPANY
NEW JAIL BUILDING WILL
BE HANDSOME STRUCTURE

The new Jail. soon to be erected BY
the county commissioners, will be~a
very handsome and thoroughly up-to-
date structure.
Plans for the proposed structure
have been drawn by Architect George
W. Rowe of Pueblo and are now on
exhibition in the office Of the county
clerk, where they may be inspected
by the public.
It will occupy the site Immediately
east of the court house on Macon ave
nue. and will be 40x70 feet on its foun-
dations. 1t will be constructed Of
brick with stone trimmings and will
be three stories in heighth, having q
capacity for 80 prisoners.
1t will stand about 20 feet east OF
the court house, with which 1t will be
connected by q steel and concrete
bridge on the second floor. Tho low
er floor will be fitted up for the oc-
cupancy Of the sheriff and his family
and will contain seven large rooms
with baths. lavatories. etc.
i The cells will be in two tiers, sim.
liar to those at the penitentiary, and
there will be a corridor extending en-
tirely around them. There will be only
one stairway from the lower floor to
the prisoners quarters in the upper
part of the building and that will b<
for the exclusive use OF the sheriff
his deputies and assistants. The new
jail will embody all Of the latest i'm
provements in such institutions and
will be a model Of its kind. It will
cost in the neighborhood Of &30.00t
and work will begin In connection
with its erection within the nexi
month or six weeks.

WEEDS SHOULD BE CUT BE.
FORE THEY GO TO SEED

In some parts Of the city, particu-
larly along the irrigating bitches,
there is a rank growth Of alfalfa,
sweet clover and weeds that are at
once unsightly and unhealthy. II
people would take enough interest in
the matter to cut and burn them before
they go to seed a great deal Of future
annoyance would be averted.
There is no more serious menace to
civic beauty than the rank growth OF
noxious vegetation and 1t Is trite
and true saying that lone years seed
ing makes seven years wedding. In
every civic improvement society, such
as we have here, there should be
vacant lot committees" to visit the
owners of such properties and request
them to clean up their holdings in the
interest of the community.
A nominal tax on each member
would sufice to cut and burn the weed
crop on the property Of non-residents
and the city would no doubt do its part
in keeping the thoroughfares moved.
Weeds are not only displeasing to the
eye, but some Of them are a positive
menace to health and both from a
aesthetic and sanitary standpoint, they
should be marked for destruction.
There is no time of the year like
the present time for doing the work
which is thus made to include the des-
truction Of the seed crop and limits

INTEREST IN THE
KANSAS-COLORADO PROJECTS

The people of the Arkansas valley
in Colorado and Of western Kansas are
becoming very much interested in the
projects Of the Kansas Colorado Elec-
trio Railroad and Electric Transmits
sion companies.
For the people of Kansas it means
the difference between dry farming
and irrigation, between land worth $25
an acre with doubtful crops and land
worth 500 to $3.50 an acre, with crops
assured every year, and for them the
power lines are Of greater Importance
than the railroad.
In Colorado there is only a COM
paratively small region where water
can be pumped for irrigation, but an
electric railroad in this part OF the
Arkansas valley will be of very great
advantage to all the people. bringing
cheap coal and cheap mineral products
to the cities and supplying cheap pow
er for manufacturing purposes.
For Pueblo especially the new COM
panies mean a great deal and II the
plans are carried to success on their
present lines 1t Is not at all unreason-
able to expect that Pueblo's popula-
ton will be doubled in the next five
years.
Few projects of this magnitude have
been promoted with so few demands
upon the local community, and this

UNREASONABLE NOOMlne
OF THE FRUIT TREES

1t is not uncommon for fruit trees
of all kinds to bear flowers in late
summer or in the early fall This ten
dency is more marked in the semi-arid
regions than in the humid states, but
the explanation is simple.
One writer reports an instance
where pile of weeds was burned un-
derneath an apple tree. The heat from
the nre was sufacient to shrivel the
leaves to the top Of the tree ON the ex-
posed side, but did not otherwise in
jure the tree. This was in August, and
a month later the tree came into bloom
on the parts which had been injured.
This result was probably due to the
drying Of the buds by the effects OF the
ire, an effect similar to that produced
by the low temperature during the
winter months.
In a somewhat similar way . lack
of water during the middle Of the sum-
mer causes the buds to dry out and to
become mature. Then. II water is ap-
piled later. second growth starts in
and some OF the blossom buds unfold.
These unreasonable flowers do not
often set fruit. However, ine speci-
mems Of the Red June apple were re-
ceived at the Agricultural College last
November. These specimens were pick
cd in an orchard in Utah from trees
which produced a normal crop in June.
Some weeks later the trees put forth
a partial second crop Of blooms and .
few fine speciments matured.

COAL MINES ARE
RuShIM6 FALL WORK

II will miss my guess II any Of the
mines of Fremont county are idle an
other day between now and the first
of next March, with the exception of
Sundays and holidays said q well
known coal man last evening. "and II
the threatened strike of the miners in
the northern. field materializes they
will work longer than that.
I'm fact this coal belt is already OK
periencing great benefit from the
threatened strike and ON account OF
the uncertainty of furnishing coal
promptly. the dealers are placing big
orders with local companies. There
IL always an uncertainty to the deal
or when q coal strike 10 threatened;
they don't know whether they ara go
ing to get the coal or not, neither do
they know how much they can secure
II they get any"
On account Of the strike talk In the
coal mines at Lafayette. Louisville
and other important coal centers in
the northern part Of Colorado, mGny
men are finding their way into the FREE
mont county collieries and orders for
hundreds OF thousands Of tons Of coal
are being received.
It Ii probable there never was q
time when the demand for coal was
so brisk as now and It il true that the
coal miners of the Fremont county
belt will enjoy q greater degree Of
prosperity this fall than for many
years.
The demand for the product Of our
mines IL great and rush orders are
daily received from Oklahoma where
plenty of coal Of an inferior grade is
mined. but the coal slackens when
exposed to the elements and the local
product does not. In fact there In .

Of the Fremont mines.
He sells his coal to the railroad
companies and Is now buying the out

ply his customers with the domestic

presents the Fremont coal N his own.
but this doesn't lessen the reputation
of the local coal. but in fact makes n
larger market for It
All the large mines in the district
are working every day, and the small
ler ones have plenty Of orders. but a.
some of them are more or less Grip
pied at present, their output will be
somewhat curtailed for q short time.
This In true of the Florence Fuel COM
pany and 8. P. Smith. but arrange
ments are being made at this time for
an increased production and Il will
not be many days until all orders can
be fiiled with dispatch.
8. p. Smith. instead of waiting to
rebuild his washed out railroad spur,
is building a bridge ACROSS the dry
creek and grading a wagnl road to
that part OF the spur which was left
intact and will haul the coai TO the
railroad IN wagons and unload. BY
pursuing this method he can Eeep the
mine running and relieve the conges-
ton which Is almost sure to follow.
The tipple will be rebuilt as he can
get time to do It.
