1t is said that cat in the country can
be kept indoors by clipping out the
hairs in the interior of the ears. These
long hairs serve when a cat runs
through bushes or grass to keep the
dew out of the ears. When these hairs
are removed the water or dew will
run into the ears and the cat will
rather stay at home than have the
trouble of clearing the water out of

BEET LANDS ON WESTERN SLOPE

The Western Sugar & Land COM
pany, which operates a beet-sugar
factory In Grand Junction. is encour-
aging farmers to rent sugar-beet land
and engage in the production of
oeets. The wisdom of this policy is
shown by the success which MANY
farmers have achieved and by the
benefits conferred upon the ccmmun-
lily OF which they are members.
Land in the Grand valley tributary
to the Grand Junction sugar factory
Is exceptionally well adapted to sugar
beet production. The>soil is rich. and
the climate is of the kind most favor
able to large tonnage of beets con-
tanning high percentage of sugar.
Many farmers have proved the
truth of this by renting land near
eirand junction and later paying for
farms of their own with the profits
made on sugar beet cultivation. What
these have done others can do as
well. In this way great opportunity
TO acquire homes in one Of the most
FERTILE valleys in the state is open TO
all who wish to take advantage of it.

PHOTOS MAKE
CROSS RANCH
ORANGE GROVE

One of the most glaring thefts
known to present day publicity and
advertising is being perpetrated by a
California concern that is trying to
sell orange groves and orange lands
1t would seem. to one familiar to
the situation in California, that there
is ample opportunity to secure pic
lures of bona fide orange groves
without going to some other part of
the country and deliberately stealing
scenes and making them over into
alleged California views.
Yet this is what is being done and
the Grand valley is the section of the
country that is being used for the
purpose
w. b. Cross. the well-known
orchardist, whose famous Red Cross
ranch is located near Clifton, has
lately secured possession of some
Photographic work post cards sent
out by a California concern, which
purport to show a California orange
grove in full bearing.
AS matter of fact the concern has
taken the photograph of Mr.. Cross's
orchard, as taken from the lookout
on top of his residence, looking east,
and has touched out" the smudge
pots, and declared the trees to show
a heavy crop of oranges.
The coy bungalow shows up dis
tinctly in the center of the fore
ground and Grand Mesa looms up in
the background with remarkable dis
tinctness.
Such thievery should be amenable
to some remedy. and the fair fame of
this valley and the glories of its re-
sources should not be permitted to be
used by other sections of the country
to boost their enterprises.
1t is understood that the postofflce
authorities will be appealed to in an
effort to prevent such matter golnc
through the mails. on the ground of
fraudulent Misrepresentation.
