EGGS HATCH
 EN TRANSIT

CHICAGO, Aug. 19-Chicken fan ciers and commission merchants mar yeled today when brood of fourteen chickens alive and well was found in case of eggs shipped to Chicago from Missouri. The case was marked strictly Fresh," but when it arrived after a heated journey in box car, the downy little chicks were discov- cred on the top layer of pasteboard within the case. Indisputable evidence that the eggs had matched in transit was seen when the case was opened after sundry chirps from it's lively contents had attracted attention.
 Incubator experts declared a temp erature of at least 1O1 degrees must have been required to accomplish the automatic matching. The chickens were given to teamster and trans ferred to the care of a motherly Ply mouth Rock. 4 9

FINE RANCH AT A BARGAIN

When unimproved Grand valley fruit
land can be had for as low as $40 per
acre, it is surely a great bargain, yet
I am offering much better bargain,
as follows:
Seventy acres of choice mesa fruit
land, three miles from the town of
Grand Valley, all under ditch, 40 to
45 acres under cultivation, over two
acres of bearing orchard, apples, plums,
cherries apricots, and Elberta peaches,
ten acres freshly seeded alfalfa, 10
acres old alfalfa, some wheat, oats and
potatoes planted this year, small al
falfa hog pasture, threc-room log
house, barn and stone chicken house,
large implement and wagon shed. The
water right is absolutely first-class. If
taken at once this place can be had
for $4,000, and it is snap at that.
Just think of it! Only 500 per acre
for choice fruit land in one Of the most
desirable sections of western Colorado.
Unless picked up by some one who ap-
preciates a bargain owner will move
his family to this place in about Il
week and then it will be withdrawn
from the market. Come-a-running if
you want a real bargain. $4,000 cash
balance may stand At SO.

Editor T. ]. skaxgs Here

T. J. Skaggs of Colorado Springs, ed
itor of Rocky Mountain Resources and
secretary of the Colorado Realty Deal
ers association, who has been on a ten
days inspection trip covering the west
ern slope, made his first visit to Glen
wood by remaining ''Hr here Sunda..
aa. Monday.
M. SkaRgs brings glowing reports
of the fruit crop outlook and says the
smudge pot has "made good" As evi
dence of this those few orchardists who
failed to use smudging as preventive
against frost have light crops, whereas
the great majority who used the arti-
fetal method of protection have full
crops.
Mr.. Skaggs says Colorado Springs is
in more prosperous condition than fo:
many years, one evidence of the in
creasing prosperity being the number
of expensive buildings in course OF
erection, among them seven story
bank building and the new federal
building. On July 81 and % next the
regular quarterly convention of the Col
orado Realty Dealers association meets
in the city of Boulder and Mr.. Skaggs
extends pressing invitation to all
Glenwood realty dealers, as well as 9th
ers interested in the states material
,nlf 10 Ia Tho aQSpcia-
tion is perhaps most active in the great
work of building Colorado.
Speaking of the exposures being made
land lottery schemes by the Denver
News and other respectable members of
the press, Mr.. skaggs deems it the duty
of every good citizen to fight corrupt
business methods all along the line. The
first known scheme of land lottery pull
ed off was in southwestern Texas by
one Doctor Simmons, four years ago.
He fought that. Also, with other vet
Grams of the press, he was on the firing
line in putting the Louisiana lottery
and the Little Havana lottery out of
business. Mr.. Skaggs was perhaps the
first newspaper man to look over the
Baca Grant property in the San Luis
valley with n view to exposing same.
and has positive proof to exonerate the
Denver News from even a breath of
suspicion of making this fight through
any but motives for the public good.
Mr.. Skaggs is saying some nice things
about Glenwood and says he will lose
no opportunity to boost the town in
his travels.

MRS. KATE LYNCH

For over a quarter of a century, Mrs.
Kate Lynch has been well known
and highly respected resident of Glen
wood Springs. She came here from
Leadville when Glenwood was but Al
infant town and she struggled along
with other pioneers to make Glenwood
the best town in the state.
But the death angel picked her from
among her friends at $3.50 Monday
morning and carried her spirit away
to the Great Beyond. She was taken
sick but few days before with pneu-
monia, but ut her age seventy four,
her strength was not equal to the
struggle.

aLENwooD DEFEATS ZOOS

BY better work, Glenwood defeated
the fast Zoo team from Colorado
Springs in the Saturday afternoon
game by a score of six to five. In tho
second inning, Honska for the locals
passed the first three men and later
hit the fourth, with errors back Of
him the Zoos sent three men over. In
the next half, Honska received a bad
lick on the head with a pitched ball,
but instead of putting him out, no
pitched steadier game and had tho
visitors at his mercy. In the second
inning they did not get hit off his
delivery. but the old scout, Luck, was
with the visitors. Fourteen of the
visitors famed the breezes and ra-
turned to the bench with such exclam-
ations and apologies as 81 can't find
that ball at all. He has the best break
l ever saw One after another the
Zoos faced Honska, but fell back to
the bench disguised with their batting
percentage. Glenwood made eight hits
and the visitors, four, while the locals
made three errors and the visitors six.
With Sherry on short and Hayden on
third, the team will be the best ever
and should have no trouble in taking
the majority of the games the rest o.
the season. And Hyder and Ballinger
are both with us again and both are
good men either in the box of field.
They hit like fends and run bases like
Jack rabbits in a clover patch.
Sandusky lost the first game on FRI
day, but with him in better shape, he
will win ont. Had he been in a hos
pital Friday instead of on the ball
ground he would have been where he
belonged. He is sick and not in fit
condRion to even throw a ball. He has
host of friends who will back him
when he is well, but they are just as
sorry to see him enter game in his
present physical condition as is posi-
BILE to be. Sandy should not be blam-
ed by the fans for losing that game
Friday. And, we do not believe they
do blame him at all.
