The street address is engraved in smaller
letters of similar style, and in the lower
right-hand corner of the card. If one
has day for being at home, it is en-
graved in the lower left-hand corner,
simply thus: Fridays. The hour is not
given on a card to be used when visit
ing, as it is understood that visits are
only made after three o'clock. In
smaller towns, however, the custom is
sometimes followed of being very ex-
plicit in stating, Fridays, after three
o'clock. This admits of no error as to
when one will be at home,
A woman's card is about three inches

cities are too enormous in extent, friends

Visiting cards are engraved from a

Nothing would SAVIOR more OF ignorance

Engraved plates are not expensive, and
there is no excuse for not having one,
nor is there any excuse for not provid-

cards. If one allows the quantity to
diminish there is anxiety and the annoy
ing delay of several days in waiting to
have hundred cards struck off from

letting light shine through the medium
of what we call advertising is plain
to all close observers.
Many a brilliant preacher plods
along in the old ways of the stagecoach
era, taking it for granted that every
pne will know that there will be ser
vices at his church, only to find him
self outstripped by the fellow of com
monplace ability who knows enough to
take advantage of advertising from
reasonable and dignified use of news
paper space to the not always easy task
of making himself sociable and agree
able to those whom he meets on the
streets and elsewhere. This is not
written in a spirit of criticism because
the Glenwood clergymen are firm be-
Geyers in a reasonable amount of pub
iicity.

advertising This reference is made

YOUNG MEN WHO
ARE IN DEMAND

Rev. b. B. Taylor of the SouIh Broad
way Christian Church preached to
young men Sunday, and in part sail {:
''The world honors young men of
character. Integrity commands pre-
MUM in the markets of the world.
Young men who can be trusted are
in demand. Our accumulation of debt
to young men is incalculable and in
creases with the circuits of the sun.
The world cannot get along without
the presence and active servIe, of
young men. Nor can the church.
"Young men are in demand in every
worthy walk of life. The church and
the world may be able to stand with.
out young men, but they cannot prog
ress without their help.
"The state and the church alike
need the daring, the dash, the cour-
age, the helpfulness and hopefulness
of young men who possess intelligence
and integrity.
"The Bible is portrait gallery of
young men. 1t ought to be the wade
mecum of every young man who has
worthy aspirations. Young man, hear
me! Make the Bible the man Of your
counsel. Read it and mediate upon
it's precepts and heroic characters"

"but you announced publicly that you

PAL1sADE PEOPLE PICK PEACHES

Palisade, Aug. 2l.-Mayor J. H.
Reeder today issued a proclamation
closing all the stores in Palisade to-
morrow and directing the clerks and
proprietors. together with every other
able bodied man in Palisade to 90 out
in the country tomorrow and help to
gather the ripened fruit. The warm
weather of the last week has brought
all of the fruit in the district to a rip
ened state at one time and there is
danger of large portion of it being
lost from spelling on the trees unless
it can be gathered within the last
threee days. Accordingly an agree
ment was entered into whereby the
stores were ordered closed and the
citizens Of Palisade will go out and
save the fruit crop surrounding the

0AocAL DISTRIBUTION OF
FORESTRY RECEIPTS

Harry ii. French. supervisor of the
vi7ed that the apportionment of monies
due to Colorado counties through the
act of May %. 1909 will soon be NAL
and the various amounts will be for
warded to the counties in accordance
with the provisions of the said act.
The act in question provides that of
the money received by the government
from the forests, either as grazing
fees or timber sales, twenty-five per
cent shall be turned back to the states
and distributed in the various counties
in proportion to the amount of reserve
land in each county.
Last year the amount received by
this county from that source was
$1S04.31 and the amount which went
to Eagle county was 2029.s1. The
money was not distributed to the couu-
ties last year until December owing
to the slowness of the legislature in
designating the use that should be made
of the same 1t was intended that the
various amounts returned to the states
!. IN which forests are located should be
-Nsed for road and school purposes and
the legislature passed it up to the
counties to make designation as be-
tween these two purposes. The county
commissioners of Garfield county pas
sed resolution giving 30 per cent. of
the amount to the road fund and 10
per cent. to the school fund.
The money received last December
is the first to have come to the county
treasurers from the forestry receipts
and County Treasurer MacRae is in
receipt of an inquiry from the depart
ment as what disposition was made of
the money by this county. 1t Is
thought that the 1910 apportionment
of this fund will be made in the very
near future.

GOOD ROADS

Tn no other state in the Union could
we have better roads than in our own
State of Colorado, and when the far
mers insist upon good roads. we shall
have them, and not until that time
will we enjoy pleasant and safe riding
in the country.
How often, when driving along
lane in the country, we find the road
first on one side, then on the other,
with drain ditch taking its natural
course, usually down the center of
the lane. How much better it would
be if the lane were only graded up in
:. the center, with two good drain bitches
down each side. The only evil doer
to roads is water. The first principle
of construction is the means of keep
ing the road dry.
The soils of our State are capable
of making excellent roads. especially
in the mountain districts. The prairie
soils contain more or less clay and in
all probability have considerable
road is hard and dry cracks will ap-
pear. This condition is best met by
mixing sand to the top course of the
road. This will give a hard, smooth
surface when kept dry. If the cracks
are large in the surface Of the road,
water will have free passage to the
interior and loosen the base, which
will develop into soft spot and final
ly into hole.
The ordinary country road is easily
made, and two important factors make
good roads: keep the road well crown
ed and smooth, and provide good drain
bitches. If these are attained. only
good, hard, smooth roads will result.
1t is sometimes necessary to pass
the drain ditch from one side Of the
road TO the o'i,,r by means of cul-
vert Do not make the culverts too
small. Economy in culverts often ap-
pears on the wrong page of the ledger.
In the construction of culverts per-
!manency is the principal item, and the
,culvert should be SO placed as readily
to take care of the water, and be
placed at such depth as not to cause
"a projection in the road surface.
In our irrigated districts culverts
that cause rough riding are very COM
mon, and a little grading on each side
of the culvert will greatly relieve the
annoyance. Try it!
The majority of our roads can be
kept in excellent condition, after they
have once been graded, by the use of
n King Drag. This useful implement
costs little and will do wonders. Drag
the road after rain. when the ground
is damp, but not sticky. Drag tho
loose material to the center or crown
of the road, thus keeping the drainage
system effective.
We are seeing much improvement
in country roads and the automobile
is largely responsible for this. Tho
more autos the better the roads. We
only wish that all might afford an
auto.

The returns show the suffrage amendment to have carried by a majority of 22.s23 votes. 52.299 votes were cast for. and 29,676 votes against the proposition.
 Although the women now have the right to vote they will he unable to participate in elections until next year. Registration books have closed for the year. and the attorney general has ruled that women who registered prior to the issuance of the governors proc lamation are illegally registered.
