WELD COUNTY RESIDENTS
IN FIGHT FOR GOOD ROAD

Residents of Weld county in the
western section have united with
Loveland people in their fight for the
Improvement of the Greeley-Lovelanl
road and a petition has been pre-
sented to the county commissioners
here asking that a bad stretch OF
road in western Weld county be re-
paired 1t is stated by several farm
ers living in the neighborhood that
the county commissioners will be
brought to face several damage suits
unless a large pond in the road is re-
moved in the near future. Merchants
Of Loveland were the principal COM
plainants, maintaining that the bad
stretch OF road interfered with their
business.

To Have Special Engine

what shall Greeley's fire engine
be?
About ten manufacturing company
representatives are racking their
brains to figure out the specifications
most desired by the city council OF
this city and in fact the aldermen
themselves have not yet decided def
initely what is wanted for the fire
fighting in this city. On next Satur-
day night the committee OF the coun-
Gil will hold a special meeting at
which time various plans will be dis
cufsed and the specifications furnish
ed for the companies bidding on
hreeiey new fire auto truck and en-
glne. None of the fire engine autos
yet inspected by the aldermen have
proved satisfactory and it is probable
that a special engine will have to
e manufactured to correspond to the
provisions the council committee in
tends making.
The principal consideration is the
power for carrying the engine about
the streets of Greeley and while there
Is no intention of purchasingg an en-

THE DOCTORS QUESTION
Some advice Against the Use OF
Harsh PurSatiVes and Physics

A doctors first question when con-
suited by patient is, Are your
bowels regular?" He knows that
IqS per cent of Illness is attended
with inactive bowels and torpid liver,
This condition poisons the system
with waste matter and causes accu-
mutation of gases which must be re
moved through the bowels before
health can be restored.
Salts, ordinary pills and cathartics
mays be truly likened to dynamite
Through their harsh. irritating ac-
tion they force a passage through the
bowels, causing pain and damage to
the delicate intestinal structure
which weakens the whole system,
and at best only produces temporary
relief. The repeated use of such
treatments causes chronic irritation
of the stomach and bowels, dries and
hardens their tissues, deadens their
nerves. stiffens their muscles and
generally brings about an injurious
habit which sometimes has almost,

LOG DRAG ON ROADS.
to Encourage Farmers to Drag Their Roads by Offer
 ing Bounty.

Recently in an address at the Wis consin State Farmers institute, w. O. Hotchkiss, chief of the highway di- vision of that state, noted that Wis consin proposes to encourage farmers to drag their roads by offering a sub stantial bounty for that service. MT. Hotchkiss states:
 Tt is proposed to allow farmers to work out their road tax in dragging adjacent roads with the split log or other drag at the rate of 75 cents per mile for each time they are requested to drag by the town board. This law should result in a great increase in the use of this drag and consequent improvement of the dirt roads of the state"
 There is no question of the useful ness of dragging roads with the split log drag when the work is carefully and regularly done, says the Prairie Farmer. Should Wisconsin undertake to put the proposed law into force, good road builders will watch results of the experiment with interest.

Growing Early Hog Pasture.

It is of as much importance to have early pasture for hogs, and especially small pigs, as for cattle, dairy COWS or sheep. The hog has the name of being a mortgage litter, and we must all acknowledge that the name is a very suitable one.
 Knowing this to be true, why not provide in a way that will be most satisfactory to him and offer the larg- est profit to ourselves?
 A hog does not relish corn for 12 months in the year and nothing else, and it is not necessary to have to de pend upon corn alone for that length of time to feed him, nor is 1t profit able to allow him to have nothing else.

Potato Blight and Scab.

A good remedy for blight and scab in seed potatoes is to dissolve one ounce of corrosive sublimate in eight to nine gallons of water and soak the potatoes in this solution about 90 min utes. While this is effective many prefer using one pint of formalin to 30 gallons of water. The corrosive sublinate is poison and more dan. gerous.

became more sandy and hotter, and
sometimes they walked from morning
until night without finding a stream of
water. This caused MANY TO remember
what Clon had said about dying Of hun
ger and thirst in the desert.
Gradually he persuaded tw others of
the wise men of the Mound Builders
and few of the council of the Cliff
Dwellers who were as ambitious as he
was to join him In a conspiracy to over
throw Nam and Ital. They kept their
plans very secret. A certain portion of
the people were ready to follow them,
and they believed that all would do so
if only the two boys were out of the
best get rid of them.
NO doubt they deserve to be killed"
Clon said. but If we should kill them
the people might object and refuse to
follow us. They might even take re-
venge upon us, for many of them are
silly enough to look upon Nam as an
extraordinary person"
But we must dispose of them some-
how" said Swib, one Of the Cliff Dwell
er councillors.
II have dreamed how 1t may be
DONE" said Clon. "One OF US will go in
the night to Nam and make believe to
deliver a message from Ital summoning
Nam to come to him alone at some
place outside the camp. He will go for
Itars sake. To Ital we will give a
similar message, as though 1T came
from Nam, and then Ital will go, too.

CLON, THE WISE MAN
How He Laid Plot Against Nam
and Ital and How 1t Turned Out
ROBERT H. FULLER

of the Wise Men of his people. he was
not so very wise after all. He spent
much of his time telling his uncom-
Portable thoughts to all who would
listen, and there were many who were
compelled to listen, for the wolf pack
prevented them from going outside
their houses of stone. Some of them
called him "Cion the Grumbler" and
laughed at him. Others were indig-
nant and took him to task for his
complainings. But there We're many
left who heard what he had to say and
who even encouraged him to talk.
OF course there were those who told
Nam and Ital what he was saying. but
they only smiled and did nothing to
stop him.
1T was very clever, no doubt, for
Nam to lead US through the cave" Clon
said as they marched southwark, after
their escape from the Red Men. Nam
is exceedingly clever. but it was 1 who
really found that the cave came out in
the other valley. Do you know how
I discovered it2 Many things are re-
vealed to US Wise Men in our dreams,
and I dreamed all about the cave long
before Nam ever thought of 1t. I
dreamed about the coming of the Red
Men, too"
You are boaster," said one of the
Mound Builders. for they were no
longer afraid to speak plainly to Clon,
since he had made himself such a
nuisance How could Nam find out
what you were dreaming?"
That's just it," Clon replied. He
has way of stealing dreams and then
taking all the credit to himself"
Some Of the Mound Builders who
were inclined to side with Clon thought
that there might be some truth in it
after all, for Clon did not hesitate to
The San Francisco call., 1909-01-30

~LON had not forgiven Nam and
Ital for putting him in the wrong
when they were leading the mi
grafton Of the Mound Builders
across the Great Plains TO the land OF
the Painted cliffs. The fact that they
had not punished him for trying to
stir up trouble among their followers
did not arouse any friendly feeling in
his mind. He was angry at the thought
that two boys should suddenly appear
among them. as they had done, and
take away the authority that he and
the other wise men had enjoyed for
so many years. Now. Of course, Nam
nut to death for what he had done al a
time of peril to all, when obedience
was more necessary than ever. But
they had not done so, and Clon was
one Of those unfortunate beings who
are unable to recognize a generous act
and repay it with generosity.
IT is true that at first he did not
think Of attempting to make more
trouble but when they had found the
Cliff Dwellers at last and were safe,
he began TO think that after all he had
not been treated as he ought to have
been treated, and before the winter
was over he was quite certain that he
could not put up with 1T any longer.
The fact was he believed that the
two Young leaders were really afraid
OF him and that this was the reason
that he had not been punished, as he
knew I'm his heart he deserved. You
see that, although ClOn was called one

tell lies If he thought that would help
him to get what he wanted But he
felt encouraged by their sympathy,
even while he was thinking how
shrewd he was to deceive them.
Il have found a way now to keep
my dreams from him. he went on Il
take care to lie awake until 1 know
that he has gone to sleep, and then 1
can dream all I like without danger.
Now 1 will tell you what 1 dreamed
last night: If we go with Nam and
Ital we shall finally come to a desert
of sand on which we shall all die of
hunger and thirst"
There were cries of fear and aston
ishment at this prediction, and some of
the Mound Builders and Cliff Dwellers,
especially the women, were much
alarmed. Clon enjoyed the impression
that he had made
I'll tell you something more" he
said. These Red Men are not really
our enemies at all. You remember that
they never thought of attacking us
until a short time before the two boys
put in an appearance"
That is true" said several of the
Mound Builders.
They never would have attacked us
if it had not been for the stories that
Nam and sItal had told them" Clon
said, lowering his voice and looking
about to make sure that neither Of
them was near These boys made
them believe that we were their enc
mics, just as they made us believe the
same thing about them. The result
was that they made US fight each other
when there was no reason for 1T what
ever. And they did it that they might
become our leaders"
How do you know all this?" one
of the Cliff DWellers asked.
