WHAT COLORADO LAWMAKERS
ARE DOING AT DENVER
No Pay for Lobbyists.

No more will the state pay lobbyists
for their efforts to secure more money
from the states Golfers for the hundred
and one purposes mentioned in the APP
preparation bills and budgets. This de-
olson has been made by Gov. John Sha-
froth, who recently announced that he
would refuse to affix his signature to
any appropriation bill not having pro-
vision to that effect embodied in 1t.
He has suggested the following for
NAL phrase as fitting clause for that
purpose: None Of the moneys here
in appropriated shall be used to pay
any officer or any member OF any
board, or any other person for lobby
ing for or against any appropriation
For many years past 1t has been the
custom, says the governor, for Off
GERS of state institutions or for mem
bers of state boards or departments to
have their expenses paid out of appro-
priations for their efforts toward in
ducing members of the Legislature to
vote for larger appropriations with
which to conduct the various branches
of the state work.
This practice" said Governor Sha-
froth, means that the state is pay
inS money to enable some depart
lnent to take more money away from
1t. It is entirely wrong for state in
stitution, board or department to pay
men and go to additional expense for
the purpose of getting more money
out of the state. This money paid
lobbyists for that purpose is really il
legally expended, according to the spir-
it. if not the letter. of the appropriation
bills. If one institution should do this
and nothing is said, there is. no rea-
son why all the twenty-seven boards
in the state could not do it. 1t must
stop" .r... .
Governor Shafroth said that his pur-
pose in giving publicity to this deter
mination is to warn the lobbyists al
ready at the state house in behalf of
the state institutions that they will
not be paid out of the states appropr-
atoms for the support of the state
boards and institutions If he can pre-
vent 1t.

Attack. Work Of Land Board.

Alleging gross mismanagement Of
the various state land boards in the
administration of public lands during
the last twenty years. Speaker Lubers
created furore at the Tuesday night
session of the House. The speaker
took the floor in committee of the
whole on Representative Clark's bill
to admit school lands to irrigation dis
tricts, not for the purpose of opposing
or supporting the measure, but to air
his personal views on the work OF the
land office
Without going into specific circum-
stances he characterized the admins
tration Of the office during the last
twenty years as a blot on the history
of the state 1t specialized and did not
put the lands to the best uses, he as
serted, and the state had suffered
greatly in consequence of the dog-in-
the-manger policy. Under proper ad-
ministration he declared the land office
could be of great assistance in the de-
velopment of the state.
The Clark bill was passed to third
reading.

Workshop for Blind Saved.

Z BY reporting out favorably the bill
carrying an appropriation OF $4,000 for
the Colorado workshop for the blind,
the Senate committee on finance prac-
tically saved the existence of that in
stitution. With a favorable committee
report the bill is expected to pass cas-
lily now, and 1t will be given home Of
Its own. Had the bill been delayed I'M
til after March LIST the institution
would have gone out of existence, as
under the law, no institution can bor-
row money for maintenance after
March LIST of the year following the ex-
piration Of the preceding biennial per-
iod. The blind workshop has been run
ming into debt since last October.
The provisions Of the bill are that a
workshop shall be built by the state to
cost $4,000, a home for the blind work
ers, to cost $4,000 and $4,000 shall
be appropriated for maintenance.

Employees Bill in Doubt.

In committee OF the whole of that
body, House Bill No. 1882, by Garman,
to fix the compensation OF certain leg.
islative employees and appropriating
$2,940 for their payment, was opposed
by several senator's because 1t made
a permanent increase in the number Of
employees. and Senator Burger raised
the point against 1t that there was no
record Of the amendments inserted in
the bill by the house. By vote Of
fifteen to twelve the committee refused
to pass the bill on second reading, but
by vote of sixteen to thirteen it was
ordered that the bill retain its place on
the calendar.

First Fahrenheit Thermometer.

In the year 1714 one Daniel Gabriel
Fahrenheit brought to the chancellor
Of the University Of Halle two Their
mometers which agreed so perfectly
in registering temperatures that they
were considered marvels. All scien-
lists were amazed. His method is
now one OF the three accepted stand
ards. Fahrenheit was by birth a
Prussian, but after his fifteenth year
ne lived long life In Amsterdam. His
great skill in working in glass en-
abled him to carry out his ideas. He
was an original thinker, but for COM
mercial reasons kept secret his meth

pENvER's FIRST sKYscRAPER
TO BE BUILT BY LOCAL
BUSINESS MEN.
TWELVE STORIES HIGH
INTERIOR OF THE BANK TO BE
AS FINE As ANYTHING IN
AMERICA.

Denver-At least one skyscraper is
assured for Denver by the announce
ment that the Puget Sound Realty
Company is now wholly local enter
prise, says the Denver Republican Of
Tuesday morning. Started on pure
ly speculative basis by men from the
Northwest where they had had some
success in like ventures, the company,
when incorporated, was not looked
upon with favor by Denver business
men, Xxx
The company is now made up of
David H. Moffat. John F. Campion,
Thomas F. Walsh, Charles Boettcher.
D. C. Dodge and few other Denver
men. John McDonough, the real es-
tate man, is agent for the company.
With these men behind the concern,
practically anything planned is not
impossible, and the first accomplish
ment will be the erection of the
twelve-story building the Puget Sound
spectators originally started out to
build. The building will be one of the
finest in the West and will be primar-
lily the home of the First National
bank.
After the completion of the first
building, 1t is said the company will
still remain active and it is entirely
possible that other tall buildings will
be put up by the men who more than
any others represent Denver's finan-
cial solidity and enterprise.

the fact that no bank in the United
States will have more complete or

cepting the big New York banks. In
the neighborhood OF $250.000 will be
expended upon furnishing and fittings,
and every device known that adds to
the safety and convenience of bank
will be installed.
The company which will take
charge of the latter work is the Weary

known bank equippers in the country.

was in Denver yesterday at the Den
yer club, and when he left the city
he Cprried signed contract for the
work.
A good piece of news to Colorado
boosters is that Colorado marble will
be used in the interior Of the bank
rooms, and this contract alone will
amount to about $4,000.
Entrance to the building will be on
Seventeenth street. 1t will be i'm
posing and ornamental, and five ele-
vators will carry people to all parts
of the building. The bank will rent
the basement. first and mezzanine
floors, the first floor covering an area
of 1875 square feet. Entrance to the
bank will be in the center of the
building on Seventeenth street, and
will also be highly ornamental. Pass
ing into the lobby, fifty by sixty feet

and bronze will confront the eye.
Not a column will obstruct the view

Sore Shoulders in Horses.

more likely to injure the horse than
one that is too small. The collar
should be scraped each morning aIV

work begins, 1t Is well to oil the har-
ness and have 1t soft and pliable. For
the first few days of hard work on soft
ground, the shoulders Of the horse
should be bathed in cold water every
night after the harness is removed.
The horse will be very sore and tired

tool for the partial filming as 1t not only
cuts up the clods, but also packs the
soil considerably. If the disc is not
available, the ground should be gone

COMPARISON OF THE WORK DONE
BY THE TWO STYLES OF
IMPLEMENTS.
WHERE EACH IS BEST
MoLpBoARD BETTER IN HUMID
SECTIONS AND LANDS THAT
ARE IRRIGATED.

In the news notes OF the Colorado
Agricultural College H. NJ. Banner
writes AS follows:
Shall l buy disc or moldboard
plow? is question frequently asked
by the farmer. The conditions undcrh
which the pillow is expected to operate
must help answer it.
All farmers are acquainted with
the moldboard pillow and know how
to operate it to the best advantage.
The disc pillow, on the other hand is
newer invention, and has not been
used SO extensively. 1t is harder to
operate successfully. and for that
reason has not given the general sat-
isfaction which should be obtained.
The use for the disc pillow, however, is
gradually growing, and In few years
1t will have almost as large place,
especially in the western states, as
the moldboard pillow.
Under similar conditions, the disc
pillow is of lighter draft, but this diff
ference is not so much as is often
claimed by the manufacturers. Roll
ing friction makes it pull somewhat
easier than sliding friction. Because
of the rolling motion of the disc and
its cutting effect, it is not so likely 20
clog as the moldboard pillow. What
the disc cannot cut it will roll over.
The disc is capable of blowing
ground that has become too dry and
hard for the moldboard pillow. This
is oftentimes of much value, as it is
not necessary to wait for rain, and
the seed can be planted at the proper
time
For humid sections and irrigated
lands, the moldboard pillow must be
considered superior. Under favorable
conditions for blowing. where the soil
Is not too dry, the moldboard plow
pulverizes and turns the soil more
satisfactorily. 1t also handles sod TO 4
better advantage.
To do the same amount of work,
the disc pillow will require very little
sharpening compared to. the mold
board pillow. This makes the running
expenses of the disc very much less
than that of moldboard.
The disc should not be of too large
diameter. A 24-inch disc for general
use is to be preferred to one of larger
diameter. The 24-inch disc will pull
verize the soil more than a IS or 80
inch one. The draft is trifle more
on the smaller one, but the difference
is moro than made up by the class Of
work 1t Is able to do.
The disc should not cut too wide a
furrow. 1t is far better to use two
discs "a inches in diameter each one
cutting s inches in width, than 10 use
a 30-inch disc cutting IA or 16 inches
in width. Taking a narrow furrow
tends to make the bottom less CORFU
gated.
Flowing the same ground year after
year with the disc does not keep it in
as good condition as if plowed with
moldboard plow
The moldboard pillow is generally
considered best for humid and irri-
gated sections, and the disc for dry or
Semi-arid sections.
