START A MARKET DAY.

Why cannot the citizens Of
Cottonwood hold a market day"
each week, or every other week,
or even once a month. We be-
lieve it would result in great
good to the town and the cost
would be practically nothing. A
small tract of ground could be
secured at some central point in
town and a few small corrals or
pens constructed to hold stock
brought in by the farmers.
Then each market day the farm
ers of this section could bring to
town any live stock, poultry,
produce or machinery they might
have for sale and the same could
easily be disposed of to good ad-
vantage. In this way teams
could be matched up, strains of
live stock improved and many
other benefits be derived. Stock
buyers would also soon get in the
habit of attending our market
days and make their purchases
here instead of running all over
the country looking after stock.
Market days have been tried
successfully for some time in
various towns through Washing
ton and Oregon and have proved
of vast benefit both to the busi-
ness men of the towns and the
farmers of the surrounding COM
munities. Let our business men
take the movement up here and
we are certain it will prove
successful.

them to her friends. Her Indian

A FRIGHTFUL
HOLOCAUST
Public School Near Cleveland,
Ohio, Burns and Nearly 200
Children Perish in the FIames--
Rear Door Locked.

One of the most frightful holo-
causts reported for years occur
red at North Collingwood, ten
miles east of Cleveland, Ohio,
Wednesday when ITO children
were burned or trampled to death
in a school house fire. The
school house was a brick struct-
ure two stories high, with an
attic, and contained 325 pupils
ranging in age from 6 to Is years.
The building had two stairways,
one leading to a front door and
one to a rear door. When the
fire was discovered by the janitor
it was burning under the floor
beneath the front door. He at
once turned in the fire alarm and
the children were marshalled by
the teachers and started march
ing from the rooms, only to find
a mass of flames greeting them
at the foot of the front staircase.
A panic then ensued and many
of the smaller children were
trampled to death beneath the
feet of their larger companions.
When it was seen that escape
was shut off from the front the
teachers tried to calm the pupils
and turn them to the back
entrance but could not do so and
on reaching the back door found
it to be locked. 1t could not be
broken down and windows were
then broken out and a number of
children escaped in that way.
Two of the teachers lost their
lives in trying to save their
pupils. The fire ragged for about
three hours and after it died out
the work of taking the bodies
from the building commenced.
Most of the children were burn
ed or trampled beyond recogni-
ton and in many cases identifi-
cation had to be made be means
of trinkets or pieces of clothing.
Only IS children escaped from
the building unhurt and many of
those taken to the hospital are
not expected to recover.

\ similar project is being planned
over on the land holdings originally
the Asa Sterling property, but which
is now owned by a Chicago colony
headed by John |, Carper OF

landers. Thus another thrifty band
of settlers will be introduced into
the Kersey country, that will add
to the strength of the town mat
erially by contributing to the deyel-
Opment of the tributary country.
The Kersey soil has shown itself
to be abundantly rich. Heavy grain,
alfalfa, garden and beet crops, pota-
toes, onions, etc, have been raised
and the intensified farming fostered
by the small farm idea Will do much
to bring out the possibilities of the
soil in what is yet a new country.
Combined with the fact that the
beet crop is one of the best in the
beet producing area of Weld county
the people of Kersey have the hope
