TEACHERS ENJOY IN
TEREST|NC LECTURES

From Tuesdays Daily.
The lectures of Mrs. Katherine NJ
Cook, state superintendent Of public
instruction, and DR.. Corwin of Pueblo,
before the teachers institute at the
assembly room of the high school
building last night were largely at
tended and greatly enjoyed by those
privileged to hear them. Mrs. Cook
spoke on the relation OF school pa
irons to the pupil and teacher and
made an excellent impression by the
practical character of her talk. The
coming of Mrs. Cook to the institute
tendance and they gave the utmost at
tention to what she had to say. Oc-
cupying the highest position in the
educational system of the state she is
in possession OF facts and figures not
easily obtainable by the public at
large, and, is therefore, always well
come visitor to such assemblages as
the one now in session here.
DR.. Corwin is one OF the disting-
uished representatives of his profess
sion and 1t is always a pleasure to
listen to him, whether delivering a
technical, or a popular discourse. His
lecture last night was illustrated
by means of the stereopticon and re-
lated to tuberculosis and the progress
being made by medical science in its
treatment. 1t was a revelation in
many respects to his auditors, and as
valuable as it was enjoyable. Follow
ing the more formal part of the pro-
gram was a reception in which all
had an opportunity OF personally
meeting DR.. Corwin and Mrs. Cook.

night was a piano solo by Miss Hem

when they come in the spring they

The time to plant the seed is just as
the plums are ripe. and after a few
years wild plum grove will take
care of itself. The grape vine
flourishes in countries where II
never rains for six OF seven months
in the year. II blossoms late and
bears a crop every year and the dry
er the year the better the grapes
seem to be. Give them plenty of
room. cultivate when the ground
needs loosening and keep the weeds
out. They should be covered with a

The best success that can come to
horticulture in this irrigated country
will be attained by those fellows who
make commercial orcharding a busi-
ness. 1t is not practicable to plant
beets or spuds at the time when
spraying should be in operation.
Spraying against the second brood of
codling moth comes when the farmer
is looking after his harvest, and the
alfalfa and grain has to be cut
whether or no. Still there is an ex-
ception to the rule as was recently
demonstrated by the heaviest orch
ardist at Clifton in Mesa county.
When he found that much of his fruit
crop was gone he whipped around and
put in 125 acres of sugar beets be-
tween the rows of young trees SO as
to make the ground produce some
thing in an off year. Other farmers in
northern Colorado especially are be-
ginning to see that their ten or fif-
teen acres in trees are a pretty good
investment on the side and may be
counted upon to bring forth a pleas
ant surprise every few years as was
the case last season. The old idea
about carrying all the eggs in one
basket is fast oozing out with lot OF
people in this country.

OF INTEREST TO FRUIT GROWERS

Nearly every grower OF strawber-
ries wants the top price and at the
same time he dumps all kinds and
sizes into the same crate just as they
come off the vines, which is very bad
practice and is an evil which could
very easily be put down. If every
berry grower would make three
grades the demand of the trade
would be met more satisfactorily and
the buyers would know just what to
expect. Some want the No. /, or
larger grade, while others prefer
common run or No. 2 grade at a lit
tie less money. Then there are the
culls, good enough for anyone to
eat or can at lesser price. We
of Denver have some frightful things
pushed off onto us by the regraders
in the grocery stores. The trick is
to push up old berries with a nice
layer of fresh stock on top to deceive
the buyer. 1t is very seldom that
we can have delivered to the house
the class of goods we buy from sam
pie. The order clerk runs in a sub
stitute Of inferior took and that is
what makes us hot under the collar
every time we go to buy case OF ber
ries.

We have never thought much OF

movement, with thousands of other

You can learn how to do all those
things that Col. Roosevelt did in

game: how to build safe fires that
can't be seen; how to cook over
them; how to take care of yourself
anywhere in the open, under all
conditions; how to wig wag' sig
nails and send messages, just as
they do in the army--in fact, ev-
erything that goes to make a self
reliant. strong. healthy, quick and
observant scout, in city or country,
through forest or prairie.
