pENROSE AND NORTHERN
EQUIPMENT ARRIVES SOON

J. D. Hawkins, president of the
Beaver Land Irrigation company,
arrived in the city from Colorado
Springs Friday night and stated this
morning to a Record representative
that the new passenger equipment for
The Beaver-Penrose & Northern rail-
road would arrive April Goth: also
one locomotive which will be a first
class engine of the 5o-ton type.
The new general superintendent.
Mr. Cogan. announces that the ties
and rails will be at Beaver station on
the goth of this month and then active
construction work will start at once
and in less than thirty days time the
seven miles of steel will be down and
service started.
Beaver Park is probably the busiest
place in the state, as its impossible
to employ men or teams unless they
are engaged two weeks in advance.
No doubt there will be big doin's''
the day the railroad is opened up and
the golden spike is driven.

third as many seeds as packages OF

names at 10 cents per package by re.
liable seedhouses. Moreover the
per centage of viable seeds ran con.
siderable lower.
The first duty, then, in the prep
aration of the home garden Is to
choose your seedmen. The second
is to plan the garden itself. This does
not mean 10 do it hap hazard, but to
draw out the garden to a scale, for
example. one inch to ten feet. and in
dicate by lines where each row of
each vegetable is to go. The third
important thing is to order as early
as possible. You secure much better
seeds in this way. because the dirt has
way Of working to the bottom, and
late in the season if the seeds are
kept in bulk there is more chance Of
getting lot OF chaff and broken
seeds.
early plants to set out when the
proper season comes. Beets, cabbage.
cauliflower. celery, egg plants. let
tuce, peppers and tomatoes are all
best started this way. You will need
some cold frames. also, in which to
harden off the plants later in the
season. 1t is absolutely necessary
that the soil in which egg plants. pep
pers and tomatoes are started shall
be sterilized by baking in the oven,
or they will fail to produce much fruit
because OF the prevalence of fusarium
blight in Colorado soils. The other
plants. also. will be benefited by this
process.
Among other 'hings to remember is
to plant a succession of varieties,
especially of those vegetables that are
sown directly in the garden. Cab
base plants grown in the field can be
used for late varieties to follow those
from early varieties grown in the hot
bed.
Sow some of the harder plants even
earlier than all your neighbors are
accustomed to do. You may lose them
one or two years and have to replant.
nut the year you succeed in pulling
them through will more than repay
the losses of the other years.
II you have large garden. plan
to use as much horse work as posi-
BILE. Set the plants a little farther
apart for this purpose. Make TIL
lines straight and parallel fer the
better accomplishment of tillage- If

possible and save time and backaches.

Accident.

Daily News Special
LAUREL, Miss, April Flames
Bush was seriously shot at the New
Orleans G Northeastern depot in this
city Thursday by the accidental dis
charge of his own pistol. The ball
struck just under the right collar bone
ranging little upward. The loss of
blood was heavy and much anxiety
is felt for him. At one time life seem
ed extinct for some seconds after be-.
ing placed in the Y. NJ c. A.
1t seems that the accident came
about this way; expressmen are al
lowed under the law to carry guns,
which the boys here carry in their
pockets. Bush had, on starting for
this trip, placed Earl Leggett's pistol
and his own in his inside breast peck
ct. Cleveland Laird, who makes his
trip with James Bush, stated that af-
ter they reached the depot, as they
stood by the truck, near the electric
light post south of the depot, James
Bush took the two pistols from his
pack and remarked that they looked
exactly alike. At this, as Bush moved |
his hand down his pocket with both |
pistols, the Laird boy turned, the
pistol firing while his attention was on
something else At the shot he looked |
and one pistol fell to the ground and
Bush pitched the other one onto the
truck and remarked, I'm shot, The
only explanation says Laird is that
the pistol dropped and struck the edge
of the truck.
Bush was first laid on a truck on
the platform for a few minutes, then
removed to the Y. NJ. C. A.
Doctors were unable to locate the
ball but his lungs were not injured
and the chances for recovery are much
better than were thought at first. He
was removed safety to his home at
one o'clock.
