PARAPINE LINED CIsTERNs.

The results of the experimental par
afine lined cement cistern for cider
and vinegar storage are SO gratifying
that short description of the process
of coating a cistern with parafine is
given below.
First, thoroughly clean the cistern.
Then apply two coats OF cement. in
water. These coats may be applied
on successive days. After the second
coat has set for at least "a hours, the
parafine coat may be applied a fol-
lows:
slightly above the melting point. by
means of a little gasoline stove. Now
apply thin coat of parafine by means
of cloth or paint brush. The coat
ing should be well rubbed before 1t
starts to solidify. but 1t should not
be disturbed after the solidification
has started. The bottom OF the cis-
tern should be coated last. The work
man should work from a suspended
platform while finishing the coating
of the bottom, as the coating Is injur-
ed by bruises such as the heels OF
shoes or the bottom OF ladder are
likely to cause.
small parafine lined cement cis-
tern has been tested by the Colorado
Agricultural College. and the results
are all that could be hoped for. both
from the standpoint of the vinegar
which was made in the cistern. and
that of the cistern itself.

and one OF ths best known Italians in
Fremont county, was Instantly killed
while at work IN the RockvaIe coal
mine yesterday morning shortly after
9 o'clock
Denardo and his partner were en-
gagged in drilling a hole for shot
when it was discovered that the roof
directly above them was not In O
safe condition. Denardo was in the
act of Strengthening 1t when a fall OF
rock estimated at about 1--WE tons,
came down upon him and his body
was frightfully crushed.

cident and will remain 80 until after

PLANT HARDY BULBS now.

During October is a desirable time
to plant spring Towering bulbs. In
this class are the snowdrops. scilla
or sauill. srocus. tulip. hyacinths.
and the various kinds of narcissus.
such as daffodnls and jonquills.
The ground should be thoroughly
spaded, and II not already enriched.
should be fertilized with fine. rotted
manure or bone meal. thoroughly
worked into the soil.
Plant the crosus and the other
small bulbs about two inches deep.
tulips from four to six inches. and
the same for hyacinths. depending
upon the size of the bulbs. Tulips In
this climate do best when planted in
a partially shaded situation. other
wise the warmth of late winter may
bring them into growth too early In
the season. The other bulbs mention
ed also thrive best when shaded dur
ing part OF the day. The east
side OF buildings is better than the
south and west.
Roots OF peony and bleeding heart
should also be planted in the fall.
Peonies set at this time OF the year,
II the clumps are large. will bloom
well the following spring. The iris
should be handled in the same man
ner. Lilies. such as the tiger and
Easter lilly. are also best planted
in the fall.
II the soil is not sandy. II is well
to set the bulbs on layer OF sand in
the earth. They should be set In
most cases at least six inches deep.
After the ground freezes an inch or
two in depth it is well to mulch the
bulb bed with fine manure. old leaves
or similar material. This should be
gradually raked off in the spring as
settled weather approaches.
II will soon be time to take up
and store such tender bulbs and
roots as the gladiolus and dahlia.
out much danger even until the soil
begins to freeze a little on the sur
face. AS soon as they are dug. the
soil should be shaken off and the
bulbs allowed to dry for half day.
Store them in a cellar where they
will not freeze and wnere the air is
not too dry. Such a cellar as po-
tatoes and apples will keep In is fair
ly well suited for the storing OF such
bulbs and roots.

COLORADO CROPS CAUSE
RAILROADS TO BORROW CARS

Eenyer, Oct. 20.-Prosperity is cast
ing SO many burdens upon the rail-
roads of Colorado because OF the
bounteous crops in both agricultural
and horticultural districts. that all OF
them have found themselves in need
of cars and two. the Colorado &
Southern and the Denver & Rio
Grande, have been compelled to bor-
row locomotives.
The extremely heavy yield of fruit
on the western slope, combined with
the shortage in the crops in the Miss
issippi valley have caused much trou-
BILE to the Rio Grande. especially US
ing up all its equipment, and COM
pelling it to lease four of the 1O0-ton
engines which the Moffatt road placed
in service two years ago, and which
are not much needed now by their
owners because of the coal strike and
because the cattle shipping season
from that section of the state is vir-
tually at an end. For several weeks
the officials of the road have complain
ed OF their inability to provide cars
TO meet the demands Of the shippers
from the Montrose. Delta and Grand
Junction districts. and every stray car
OF another road that would serve the
purpose has been detained long
enough to be laden with the apples
that have made Colorado famous.
Only when II was discovered that
there were enough cars to haul the
fruit did the oficials realize that they
needed engines too and the Moffat
road was drawn upon for its surplus
supply.

THE COMMISSION Plan
IN COLORADO SPRINGS

Spokane, Wash, Oct. 20.-The COM
mission form of government places the
affairs of the city absolutely on
business basis. 1t effectively removes
municipal administration from poll
tics 1t creates a more intelligent
rublic interest in the conduct of the
city's business and it stimulates the
spirit of public improvement. II
places the responsibility where there
can be no evasion and thereby gives
the people a right to demand more
systematic, business like and econom-
ical administration of the city's an
fairs
A. ]. Lawton, chairman of the Col
orado delegation at the Dry Farming
Congress, and commissioner OF pub
lie works and property in the city OF
Colorado Springs. thus summarizes
the advantages of the commission
form of government.
Under our charter" MIR. Lawton
added, "the voter has every opportun-
ity to select the officials for their fit
ness. We have abolished the old
ward boundaries and have limited the
elective officers to the mayor and four
commissioners who compose the city
council and in whom the manage
ment of the city's business is intrust-
ed. There are no political nominating
conventions.
ANY person may be nominated on
a petition signed by 25 voters, each OF
whom as well as the candidates must
take affidavit to the effect that the
nominee is not the representative OF
any political party. or any particular
interest No political or other desig-
nations are allowed on the ballot.
THE charter prohibits the making
of appointments for political reasons
and the greater majority OF the city's
employees are under civil service.
The term of office is four years
The salary is large enough to make II
possible for competent business men
to devote their time to the city's busi-
ness. Our charter establishes five de-
partments: Water, finance, public
works and property, public safety, and
public health and sanitation. The
mayor Is ex-officio head of the water
department which is owned by the
Cañon City record., 1910-10-20

city and valued at nearly $4,000. 900
The commissioners apportion the 9TH
er departments among themselves as
they judge best.
This arrangement is more salts
factory than the election of each man
for a specific department, as it en-
ables the people to pick the best OF
tunity to arrange the work as best
suits the individual qualifications and
tastes of the commissioners, thereby
promoting more effective service.
The charter makes each commiss-
ioner directly responsible for his de-
partment and gives the mayor general
supervision of all. The man must
therefore take pride in the manage
ment of his department and will Sc
lect his subordinates not for political
reasons but because Of their ability.
There can be no question but that this
tends to a better administration.
Our charter contains several pro-
visions such as the recall, initiative
and referendum. None of these have
been put to the actual test but they
exercise an influence which is a con-
slant reminder to the council that its
members are individually responsible
to the people.
While our charter has been oper
ative only a short period, we have
found that the commission form of
government is more systematic, busi-
ness-like and economical. We have
seen in Colorado Springs that it ere
ates a more intelligent interest in the
city's affairs and that it stimulates
matters affecting the permanent and
future improvement of the city.
Since the charter has been in ef-
feet, many movements. such as paw
ing. civic planning. extension OF park
system, Fairgrounds and the like have
been undertaken and several are now
under way which have a bearing on
the general advancement of the COM
munity. Not only are the ofiicials, the
civic and commercial organizations.
more alive in the matter OF public i'm
provements, but there is a general
awakening to be attributed in a great
measure to the new form OF govern
ment."

To show that tits an i'll wind that
blows nobody good" the coal strike
in the northern fields has created such
demand for the southern product
that the Colorado & Southern is like
wise experiencing a shortage in cars
and engines, and has issued orders
for immediate return OF all its equip
ment that is in the hands of other
lines. II has also been compelled to
lease ten of the Moffatt roads big To-
comotives, and to borrow FIVE more
from the Burlington. which. however.
is keeping it in the family, so to
speak, as the Burlington owns the
local line. The great crops of pota-
toes. wheat and boets produced along
its lines in the northern part of the
state is largely accountable for this
lack of equipment, though the coal
situation is more keenly felt.
