SPECIAL TRAIN SERVICE
FOR IRRIGATION CONGRESS

Arrangements have been made with
that permit of sufficient special train
service to send both the San Luis
valley and the Western Slope to
Pueblo to the Eighteenth National
Irrigation congress and the National
Irrigation exposition in great numbers
Both these great sections of the
state have been displaying unusual
interest in the congress, the ex-
position, and the state fair. Cen
trail commercial organizations have
been formed to take up the work
in behalf of these districts and the
utilization of every opportunity. and
both districts have talked these
events necessarily. The newspapers
ing these events, and most of the
local commercial organizations have
special committees working to in
sure splendid exhibitions.
The Denver and Rio Grande will
run a special train service from
Creede or Del Norte. and 1t is con-
fidently predicted that there will be
an attendance of at least 500 from
the valley by this special service a
lone.
The recent daylight train service
installed by the Rio Grande for the
San Luis country, also admits of
great ease in reaching Pueblo for
the congress, state fair, and expo
sition.
Antonito, in the SanLuis valley. has
band that will take a prominent
part in the demonstration that that
section will make in Pueblo in Sep
tember. and for this the Rio Grande
has made nominal figure Of $5.75
per capita from Antonito to Pueblo
and return. This is one-half the
one way rate. and is very reasonable.

DENVER LIVE STOCK MARKETS.

Denver Stock Yards, June 90
The receipts of cattle last week were
very good here and the market fairly
active though by no means brisk.
Good beef steers and cows were in
very good demand and prices held
up about steady throughout the week.
The medium and palmer grades were
lower, prices being anywhere from
% to 35 cents off from two weeks
ago. The feature of the week was
the arrival from Colorado Agricul-
tural College at Fort Collins. of a
bunch of fancy experiment steers
that sold at $3.50, s7.S5 and $500,
the latter being the highest price
ever paid on the open market here.
Other good steers sold at $3.50 to
$7.40 A bunch of fancy heifers
brought $500 and most of the good
to choice cows brought $5.35 to $500
There were few choice cows here.
Most of the cows offered were of
just fair quality and the palmer kinds
We're little slow at times. Bulls
and veal calves show little change
from week ago and there was not
much change on the market for feed
ers and stockers. Demand for stock
ers fair and prices about steady.
Feeder demand rather light at all
markets at present. To-day's offering
5000 head, market about steady.
The hog market was in very fair
shape but trade little slow at times
as packers were still bearish. They
bought more readily to-day. however,
and the market was sharply higher
with tops selling at $9.47k.
Sheep trade light and the market
quiet all week. Prices are sharply
lower than week ago owing to big
declines at eastern markets.

FRANCE TAKES STEPS TO
END RACE SUICIDE.
Will Require State Employees To
Wed; Puts Premium on Children

Paris. June ga series of meas
ures designed to stimulate the birth
rate in France were introduced in
parliament to-day.
They include the imposition of
additional military service on bach
elors over 20 years of age; making
obligatory the marriage of state en-
ployes who have reached the age of
% years. with supplementary salaries
and pension allowances for those
with more than three children, and
the repeal of the law requiring equal
distribution of estates among the
children. The dislike of French
men to divide their property is a
frequent cause of restricted families,
according to those who have made a
study of the subject.
The proposed legislation follows the
recent publication of vital statistics
which showed that the births in
the republic during 1909 were 10000,
against $4,000 in the preceding
year, and the population has been
increased by only 100000 since
1851

AERIAL PROGRESS.

The progress of aerial navigation
evidently depends to a great extent
upon the perfection of the motors
used. The flight of Hamilton de
monstrated. as other flights have
done, that this mechanism must be
perfected before the progress that
is hoped for can be made.
In addition some way must be
found by which a greater amount OF
gasoline can be carried Curtiss
would very likely have completed
his trip from Albany to New York
without stopping at all had his ma
chine been capable of carrying a
sufficient supply.
This is matter to which in
ventors should apply themselves. 1t
is pointed out that the aeroplane
calls for special adaptation of the
engines used and the prob EN- is one
that affords profitable field for
invention.
In addition, there is another line
of work for the inventor-that of
safer aeroplanes. Aerial navigation
is perilous at best, as accident af-
ter accident has shown. There will
be a great demand for anything that
will make it less so, and here is an
opportunity for the inventor.

Perhaps it was; at al! events no

PRINCETON, N. j., April 2.-The Prince
ton university foot ball schedule for the
coming season has been announced. II
shows several changes from schedules OF
recent years. Dartmouth viii be played
n New York on October %. The game
probably will be at the Polo grounds.
The new games on the schedule are New
York university and Carlisle. Virginia
Polytechnic Institute. suwanee and the
Navy have been dropped.
Villanova is the only midweek contest
on the list. There is one less game sched-
uled than last year. The meeting with
Carlisle at Princeton is the first one there
in years. and it will give a basis OF com
p~arlson between the Tigers and Pennsyl-
vania.
In order to ease up the schedule before
the Yale game. which is scheduled for
November 70, at Princeton, Fordham has
been listed between Dartmouth and Ell.
There is general satisfaction here over
the list, II Is believed that the schedule is
well balanced to help the development OF
the team for the Yale game. In fact. every
date is apparently arranged as a training
point for the final contest. The schedule
cannot be called a hard one.
The schedule reads as follows:
October i-Stevens Institute. at Princeton.

Princeton.

runners are welcoming the present fine

the preliminary outdoor training for the

April 10.
Many are already running over the
greater part OF the course. from Ashland

Greet clubhouse. A number whose work
permits 1t, take their workouts in the day
time, but there are many who have to take
to the road at night.
From all Indications there will be more
runners In the big event this year than
ever before. While many OF them are
old-timers, the biggest part of them are
newcomers, who are but little known by
the veterans. They will be dark horses
in the race. and, perhaps. among them
will be another Timothy Ford OF Cam

races Of 1906 and last year, respectively.

There will be a bigger invasion Of Can
