OF COURSE WE WANT IT.
Any Country Wants and Needs Railroad
Competition.

THE Montrose Enterprise says that
from 1900 to 2000 cars of potatoes will
go out of there this fall bound for
Texas and other southern states, all of
which would naturally seek the Colo
RADIO & Southern as a direct route if
that road is extended through the
North Fork. Paonia has 800 cars of
apples to go the same way. Crawford
and Maher people are so concerned
about the shipping outlook that they
are ready to build portion of the road
themselves. Hotchkiss, Cedaredge,
Delta and Olathe are all boosting for
the c. & S. extension. A good deal of
railroad talk is hot air, but when such
earnest men as comprise the business
mems associations in these cities are
united in going after a certain thing
and are so concerned about it that they
seriously consider building the connec-
tion themselves, you may be sure there
is business afoot. News Champion.

A CLERKS BLUNDER.
Its Effect Upon the Fortunes of Our
Revolutionary War.


The element of chance as exempli-
fed in the blunder of n copyist had an
important bearing on the result of our
war for independence. As is well
known. the crisis of the military be-
tween Great Britain and the revolving
colonies was reached when General
Burgoyne's campaign was planned in
London. The object was to strike Il
tremendous blow at the center of the
Revolution. The British forces were
to take possession of the Mohawk and
Hudson valleys by concentric march
from Lake Champlain.. Oswego and
New York on converging lines toward
Albany. The ascent of the Hudson by
Sir William Howe's army was essen
tial to the success of n scheme by
which New England was to be cut off
as by wedge from the southern colo
MES
Orders were sent out from London
for the advance of Burgoyne's and St
Leger's forces from Canada. At first
Sir William Howe was merely inform
ed of the plan and was armed with
discretionary powers. but finally n dis
patch was drafted positively ordering
him to cooperate in the movement
from New York
A British clerk made a hasty and
very careless copy of the dispatch.
which the minister. Lord George Ger
maine. found great difficulty in read
ing. He angrily reprimanded the cul-
prit and ordered fresh copy to be
made without flaw or erasure Being
pressed for time and anxious for a
holiday. Lord George posted off to the
country without waiting for the fresh
copy.
The military order was laboriously
copied in the clerks best hand. but
when it was finished the minister was
not there to sign it. 1t was pigeon
holed and overlooked when he returned
and was not sent to America until long
afterward. Howe. being left with full
discretion. allowed himself to be drawn
into military operations against Wash
ington's army near Philadelphia. Bur
goyne's army was entrapped. cut off
from retreat and forced to surrender
at Saratoga.
Thus the fortunes of the Revolution
ary war turned upon the carelessness
of a British clerk.-Chicago Record

Colorado A Natural Breeding Place.

There is probably no place on earth
where better natural conditions exist
for perfecting breeds of live stock 1t
is here that the greatest cantaloupes
in the world are raised. Our potatoes
are appreciated as is shown by the fact
that they are used on the dining cars
of eastern roads; our wheat has high
percentage of glutin, and our sugar
beets have more sugar. The eyes of
the world are just opening to the fact
that the Arid West has natural condi-
tions which are not excelled anywhere.
In substance the reputation we so
justly enjoy is attributed directly to
climate and an almost unprecedented
fertility of soil. As might be expected
under such favorable conditions, our
native grass and in fact all forage
crops have a high nutrative value.
Then, what is the use of raising so
many mongrel and misfit horses to help
flood the cheap markets of Chicago?
What is the use of paying 81 200 to
foreigners for their often undesirable
pbIS DiSu IiOIoco lIeI no
better use of them? Besides, we have
all the most favorable conditions for
raising them at home. Rocky Ford
awoke to the fact that she had the
conditions for raising superior article
of cantaloupe; they have established a
reputation and are making money out
of it. The farmers in the same way
have found what they can do with the
sugar beet. We have everything in
our favor for producing high-class
animals of different breeds; no con-
tagious or epizootic diseases. or any
other untoward conditions to hamper
us or supp ess confidence.
Notwithstanding that we have these
favorable conditions, we must, if we
are to succeed, adopt one policy in
breeding and stick to it, generation
after generation, until we have accom-
plished for ourselves what France has
done by patient, persistent effoft with
the Percheron horse, and the Scotch
man with the Clydesdale.

BURNING A DIAMOND.
The Experiment as Made by Davy and
Faraday.

That diamonds will not only burn.
but will blaze. was proved as long ago
ns 1914 by Sir Humphry Davy and
Michael Farnday. The experiment was
carried out at Florence. where the two
scientists were visiting the great Duke
of Tuscany. whose burning glass was
the medium through which the sun
was Induced to operate. This burn
ing glass consisted OF couple OF con
vex lenses. distant from each other
about three and half feet, the large
lens being some fourteen inches In
diameter. the smaller about three
inches. The diamond rested on rod
OF platinum which had cup shaped
receptacle at the top. pierced with holes
to admit OF free circulation OF gas.
This rod was fixed in the center of a
glass globe OF twenty-five cubical
inches capacity. exhausted OF air ind
filled with pure hydrogen
Intense heat was brought to bear
upon the diamond when 1t was ex-
posed to the sun. the second lens great
ly reducing the focus. In the course
Of three-quarters OF an hour It was
necessary twice or thrice to cool tho
globe. Then II was noticed that the
diamond wns slowly diminishing and
becoming gradually Opaque. Suddenly
It burst into flame. They removed the
stone from the focus. and II bazed
away merrily. 1t glowed brilliantly.
with scarlet light inclinIng to pur.
pie. and continued to burn for about
four minutes.
The glass was then cooled and the
diamond agnin submitted to the action
OF the sun. Again It blazed. but not
for 80 long period as Mt first. Twice
more this was repeated. and then the
diamond was totally consumed. This
was the first occasion on which. so far
ms Is known, diamond had been seen
to burn.-Chlcago News.

SOAP BUBBLES.
How Some Pretty and Marvellous Ef-
fects May Be Produced.

TOW SOne fFeIIJ ana marvellous CI-
feets May Be Produced.
There are degrees of skill in all pas
times, but one would hardly think that
there were specialists in the art of
blowing soap bubbles. An article in
the Windsor Magazine by Meredith Nu-
gent, however. shows that some very
pretty and marvellous effects may be
obtained by the exercise of care and
patience with soap and water.
The first step is to make solution
by rubbing pure white CASTLE soap into
bowl partly filed with watc- sntil a
lather has been formed. Then remove
every particle of lather, dip clay pipe
into the cleared solution and start to
blow a bubble
If you can blow one six inches in di-
ameter so that it will hang suspended
from the pipe and will allow your fore
finger covered with the solution to be
pushed through into the bubble With
out breaking. then the mixture is ready
for use.
Six bubbles may be blown, one inside
the other. This is performed by dip
ping the end of straw in the soapy
water and after resting the wet end
upon an inverted plate or sheet of
glass, which should have been previ-
ously wet with the solution. blow a
bubble six inches in diameter.
Then dip the straw into the solution
again, carefully thrust it through into
the center Of this first bubble and blow
another. Continue in this manner until
all the bubbles are in position. Great
care must be taken that the straw Is
thoroughly wet with solution for fully
half its length before each bubble is
blown. With practice ten or twelve
bubbles may be placed inside of one
| another

Australian Bushmen.

Although the bushmen of Australia
are the very lowest in the scale of ig-
norance, they possess rare instinct
that equals that of many animals and
is in its way MS wonderful as mans
reason. 1t is almost impossible for
them TO be lost. Even If they be led
away from their home blindfolded for
miles. when released they will unerr-
ingly turn in the right direction and
make their way TO their nest homes.
and, though these are all very similar,
they never make mistake.
