DAlRYMEk TO ASK
PROTECTION ON PRODUCTS

The creamery and butter inter
lions on their products this year.
The reduction OF the tariff duty on
cream to ii cents gallon has de-
stroyed the business of more than
one big dealer in this country and
has given the foreigner all the best
of it.
Conditions were imposed on them,
they say. which made them prepare
for scarcity and they bid higher
than ever before. Cold storages are
packed to the roofs and the price OF
storage butter is weak. The Cana
dian situation was one of the fact
ors and the drought another
The tariff reduction, the Western
dealers say, is equivalent to one
half cent a pound on manufactured
butter. Canada shipped in during
the year two-thirds of the surplus
butter of the country. The result
has been that the creamery men of
the dairy states-Iowa. Michigan,
Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana and
Ohio-are writing to their congress
men to have the tax of IL cents
gallon on cream raised for pro-
lection, SO that II will be equivalent
to six cents a pound. which Is the
duty on manufactured butter which
Is now being sold in Canada for
from 23h to &c cents a pound. and

SNOW IS
WELCOME
IN WELD
STORM is GENERAL AND HEAVY
THROUGHOUT COUNTY
WHITE CKRISTMAS===YES
Only Ones Not Glad are Young Men
Who Promised Girls Sleigh Ride
if Snow Holds Through
the Holidays
Well, it came.


That snow that everyone has been
looking for, hoping for, praying for
and doubling If it ever would come,
is here with bells on. 1t means all
sorts of good things in Weld county
and Christmas will be far merrier
as result Of the holiday spirit OF
the weather man. e
1t is just the right sort of snow,
too. The wind stayed hid, the air
was soft and mild, so that the pre-
cipitation is sinking gently into the
thirsty soil, storing itself for doing
business next summer with the
sugar beets and supds.
And there is lot of it in Weld
county Reports this morning from
all parts of this section indicate that
several inches of the beautiful will
be on the ground by night. The fall
started early in the morning and
continued strong for hours. The
farmers are tickled hugely, since
they have been waiting anXiously
/ for Just such a storm. From Denver
to many miles north of Greeley the
white. Christmassy blanket is spread
over the ground and little Johnny
is rejoicing with father, for it will
mean fine business if Santa Claus
brings him that new sled.
The only persons not glad to see
the snow are the brash young men
who promised their girls a sleigh
ride Christmas If there was any
snow. With sleighs renting at one
weeks salary per day, there is but
little joyin watching the great flakes
fall in millions aud pile UP inches
deep in the roads.
The weather forecast says tha
there will be snow all day today
with colder weather in the eastern
: portion of the state and clearer
d weather tomorrow. It is believed
7 that the storms that have been pre-
yailing through the middle west
+ have reached Colorado and some
real winter may be expected for
while.

"SWIMMIN' HOLE"
FOR GIRLS AT
NORMAL SCHOOL
Dr. Snyder Wants More Attention
Paid to Physical Development
OF Students and Has Idea

How does 1t sound a morning like
todays to be told that you will be
expected to walk two miles before
breakfast to swimming pool and
take plunge, then walk back and
be ready for a days work?
or course winter mornings will
be excluded, but the students at the
Normal are wondering bit just
how this will go. And the girls are
beginning to scan fashion plates to
see what bathing suits next season
are to be like. all because of an an
nouncement made in chapel yester-
day morning by DR.. Snyder. presi-
dent of the school. who declared
that he was going to buy several

ming pool for Normal students.
This news followed strong talk
in which the doctor advocated physi-
cal exercise for the students, who,
he declared, did not pay enough at
tention to keeping their bodies In
condition He emphasized the need
OF pnySical exercise 10 alI engaged

students and professors. and declar-
ed that swimming was one of the
best means of keeping the body
strong and in condition to ward off
the millions of insidious germs lurk-
ing everywhere in wait for the ply
steal weakliugs.
Future Annette Kellermans are
pleased with the news. but there are
others to whom the idea of an early
morning plunge after two mile
walk does not appeal particularly.
The lazy ones. who are having a
hard time now in getting around In
time in the mornings. do not relish
the idea or doing mermaid stunt
as q preliminary to the days work,
while the athletic enthusiasts are
delighted with the idea.
1t Is said that the young men are
particularly keen on the proposition
and already are offering their ser
vices as Instructors in swimming to

here from western and and central
Kansas and Nebraska. The dairy
regions of Ontario are close to Chi-

no show to get in the market. The
Denver dealers state that some oL
them paid as high as 23 cents q

TON IN CENTRAL CANADA.

It is not only from Kentucky, but

ment Official, and says: 81 have just

flattering, but not half what 1 found it.

expect to see. / will go in the spring
and get to work on my place. l think

Some of the papers describe the set
Ting of the Canadian West as 'be-
coming a fever with a great many peo-
pie. The lure of its golden promises
Is creeping into their hearts and many
are they who are answering the call
of that unsettled territory" This pa
per editorially cautions its readers to
exercise care and thought before NOV
ing to a distant country. This would
be a wise precaution, and is exactly
what the Canadian officials ask
The success of the settler who has
made Canada his home for years is
the best evidence that can be offered.
| And Of the large number of Americans
who have made their homes in Can
ada, very few have returned. All are
satisfied.

the eczema was spreading all over my

bottle, together with the Cuticura
Ointment, my sores were nearly
healed over, and by the time l had
used the third bottle, was entirely
well. To any one who has any skin
or blood disease 1 would honestly ad-

but to get Cuticura and get well. My
hands have never given me the least
bit of trouble up to now.

She could get nothing that would do
them any good until she tried Cuti-
