SEEDS FROM FOREIGN LANDS
About 100000 Worth of Sugar
Beet Seed Imported Last Year

A high record importation Of 20 mil
lion dollars worth of faxseed in the
fiscal year 1911 is indicated by the
records Of the Bureau of Statistics. De-
partment of Commerce and Labor, now
completed for the o months ending with
April. 1911. During that period the i'm
ports of flaxsesd or linseed, aggregated
8 X million bushels, compared with a
little over 8 million bushels last year and
$4,000 bushels in the corresponding
period Of 1909. The growth in value is
even greater. the 10 months figures Of
the current fiscal year being l63. million
dollars. against million in 1910 and but
Sz5,654 in 1909. The estimated i'm
portstion of 20 million dollars worth of
flaxseed in the fiscal year which ends
with the present month exceeds by more
than 10 million dollars the value import
ed in 1909, is nearly le million dollars
above the record of 1901. and is by far
larger than that Of any othery year. Dur
ing the ten years. 1901 to 1910. inclusive
total of ! 8 million dollars. or an aver
age annual Importation of 81 100000 is
shown. as against s2o.ooo,ooo for the
single year 1911 now drawing to a close.
Flaxseed furnishes the bulk of the %
million dollars worth Of seeds of various
kinds imported during the year. The
other classes include sugar beet. clover
and castor beans. or these. the imports
of clover seed during the year will be
about 8 million dollars, and those Of
sugar beet and castor seed. each about
100000. The remaining 5si million
dollars worth OF seeds imported includes
grass. mustard. beet. cabbage. poppy and
flower seeds. also a large number Of
seeds valued by reason of the volatile
oils and perfumes contained. such as
anise. caraway, coriander and fennel.
Argentina is the chief source Of the
fiaxseed imported into the United States.
about SO per cent Of the imports during
1910 having been from that country,
compared with about 25 per cent from
Canada and about 4 per cent each from
the British East Indies and Belgium.
Nearly all the sugar beet seed imported
is from Germany. Canad and France.

the electric light company Of that city
$500 per month. over one-half Of the entire
revenue Of the city. The city
pays S2z6 pet month for street lights
'Sl2.5o per month each for eight arc

not equal to the ordinary sixteen candle
power in La Junta. La Junta pays $3.50

we are mighty well off. in more ways

One OF our county officials. who was
formerly distinguished citizen Of Rocky
Ford. says that his residence light bill in
Rocky Ford was never less than S5.z5

house than he had in his home at Rocky

JUMPS FROM TRAIN WINDOW
While Suffering from Dementia and
Meets Instant Death

|, Shortly before 6 o'clock Wednesday
morning the lifeess body OF a woman was
discovered lying near the Santa Fe tracks
not far from the Newdale beet dump by
W. H. Booker. who resides on the S. A.
Matthews santaloupe farm nearby.
Mr.. Booker Immediately telephoned to
Undertaken Sprinkler of his gruesome find
and the latter at once notified Coroner
Wilson and Agent Robertson. who accom-
panied him to view the remains of the
unfortunate woman.
1t required but a glance to determine
that the woman had met death by jump
ing or falling from train. and an inquiry
at once instituted by Mr.. Robertson soon
disclosed the fact that a woman was
missing from Train No. that passes
through this city about 4 o'cloek.
The remains were brought to Sprinker's
morgue. where the eoroner's inquest was
held. and it was learned that the woman
was a Mrs. F. M. Trivett. of Eskridge.
Kan. who with her l5-year-old son and
a nurse. Miss Ida Masser. were on the
way to a sanitarium at Colorado Springs.
They were occupants of the Pullman
car and the nurse related that she had
visited her patient and found her asleep
as the train left La Junta. Shortly after
leaving this city she again visited the
berth and discovered her patient was
missing. She at once notified tho con-
ductor and search was made. but twas
not until the train neared Pueblo that the
window Of the retiring room was found
to be open. thus accounting for the wo-
mans disappearance.
Mrs. Trivett's health had broken down
since the death Of her husband some
eight months ago and she had recently
been subject to spells Of nervousness and
despondency. and the suppostion was
that she was seized with temporary in
sanity while in the toilet room and had
raised the window and jumped to her
death.
The coroner's jury gave verdict that
they were unable to determine whether
the death was suicidal or accidental. but
laid no blame on anyone for the tragic
occurrence.
Mr.. Flaek. brother Of deceased. ar
rived yesterday afternoon. and with the
young son and nurse will today leave with
the body for Eskridge. Kan.
