NEVER LOUNGE IN
WET BATHING SUITS.

There is something in the salt air
of any summer resort in the good old
summer time that makes girl do
things the unconventionality OF WHICH
would appal her were II January in.
stead of July.
Beach lounging is one Of the things
that none but thoughtless girls will
indulge in. Bathing Is all right, but
for the sake of the cooler Judgment
that will come when the brisk breezes
of fall arrive. girls should refrain from
making exhibitions of themselves.
Everyone wishes to have a happy
time In summer and all should strive
for healthful amusement, but these
are not reasons for disseminating for.

manners, for there are certain rescr.
vations which must always be main.

For instance, though sea bathing is

In, II Is really a harmful amusement
when for several hours at time men
and women, some OF whose costumes

lounge around on the beach. How
ever intimately girl may know Il
man II cannot be considered correct
for her to sit on the sand with him IN
suit whose abbreviation would EN-
barrass her were she seen in II on
the piazza.
During vacation time 1t should be
remembered that bathing suits were
made to wear in the water and not to
spend the day in.
There Is an obvious lack of innate
refinement in girl who permits the
men of her acquaintance to loung,
about her on the beach in bathing
suits. There is nothing truer in tn,
world than the statement that clothes
make the man. and certainly the,
make the manners, for while 1t is moi
to be expected that the same atmos
phere of society will prevail on the
sands under these conditions as viii

Barring either extreme there Is Tho
happy medium with informally, com

Montezama Makes Good, AS Usual.

Montezuma Makes Good, AS Usual.
In speaking of w. 4. Bozman's re-
turn form the State Fair the Telluride
Journal has the following to say;
Mr.. Bozman is very much elated over
the success Of his district in its capture
of first prizes in the horticultural de-
partment at the state fair, and his
pride seems to be justified, for in
glancing over several columns of prizes
awarded, as printed in the Chieftain
his name appears some fifty times,
and all told first and second prizes
were awarded his exhibits In more
than one hundred instances, ninety
special premiums for unclassified ex-
hibits going to him. y ~ =
Among these latter special premiums,
first and second prizes for the best box
Of fall apples, went to the product of
an orchard way up at the head of the
valley, where the earlier settlers
thought fruit could not be successfully
grown. For the best box of winter
apples this same orchard took second
prize.
For purposes ofexpediting the awards
the fruit growing sections are divided
into districts, each district containing
several counties. Montezuma county
is part of District 4, and to her was
awarded first prize for the finest gem
eral display of fruit. To MIR. Bozman
personally was awarded first prize for
the best individual display of apples,
the collection coming from his fruit
farm, the Jasper Hall orchard in McEl-
mo canon, a.trophy of which Mr.. Boz
man is particularly proud.
Another of the substantial special
premiums was for the best ten potatoes
grown In the state. This, too, was
awarded to the collection under Mr..
Bozman's care, from Montezunia val
ley, and only those familiar with the
magnificent 'sspuds' grown all over
Colorado, can appreciate what it means
to win prize for the ten best potatoes.
It has become habit with Monte
yuma to capture the best of every thing
each year for her Exhibits of fruits and
vegetables at the state fair, but this
year she fairly outdid herself, notwith-
standing the late heavy freezes and
untoward conditions prevailing last

Squashes can be kept until spring or
longer if handled with care and prop
erly stored. They should be gathered
before frost, preferably as soon or short
ly after they are ripe. In picking, the
stem shQnld be left on the squash or
pumpkin. Immature squashes shonld
not be used. After picking they should
be left in the field short time-one or
more days-so that the stem will dry,
Extreme care should be used in hand
ling, hauling and storing so that they
will not be bruised. If the skin or rind
is broken, decay is almost certain to
occur. They should be hauled on straw
or hay, preferably IN wagon box set
on springs, and stored in dry room.
They will keep well at a temperature
of so degrees. Place them on shelves
off the ground. Do not pile them deep
er than two layers and one is better.
1t is we'll to look them over occasion,
