from the trunk or large limbs, as buds
from these sprouts are not usually SO
strong as are those from the normal
growth. Cut the scions off back as
far as the previous seasons growth
extends and bury them in moist sand
or soil, either in the cellar or on the
north side of some building.
About the time the buds on the
trees begin to swell, or from about
the first of March, is the best time
to do the grating. The limbs to be
grated should be somewhere between
an inch and three inches in diameter.
They should be sawed sQuarely on
and the stubs split with chisel down
about two inches straight through the
middle. The chisel is then removed
and wedge about half an inch wide
inserted in the middle of the stub for
spreading in the split. l fthe wedge Is
much wider than this, 1t may not leave
room enough on each side to insert
the scion. Next, take one of the scion
twigs and cut II into several pieces,
each having three or four buds. Cut
the larger end of on of these pieces
wedge shaped and insert 1t in the split
in the end of the stub so that the third
bud from the tip comes a little below
the end of the stub. Put one scion on
each side of the wedge and adjust
them so that the inner bark on the
outer side of the scion in contace with
the inner bark of the stub or large
limb. Then, pull out the wedge, and
the wood will spring ogether and
hold the scions. All freshly cut sur
faces and the crack in the limb should
be covered with grating wax to keep
them rom drying out.
A good grating wax is made by
melting together two mounds of resin
one pound of beeswax, and half
pound of tallow. After they are melt
ed the liquid should be poured in cold
water and then pulled like tafly until
1t is of a bun color.

Frederic S. Isham. the novelist, "

attractions to the lover of nature and

friend of mine who was up the river

WANT ROADWAY BUILT
UP THE ARKANSAS RIVER

The Canon City delegates to the
state good roads convention made the
acquaintance OF a number OF the rep
resentatives from Chaffee. Lake, Gun
nison. Montrose, Delta and other coun-
ties to the westward on the train the
other day while en- route TO Denver.
and found them to be unanimously In
favor OF the construction by the state
OF trunk line roadway up the Arkan-
sas river from Canon City to Salida
and Leadville with branches leading
on into the San Luis, Uncomphagre
and other valleys on the western slope.
They expressed the belief that one OF
the principal arteries OF travel In the
proposed system of highways for Colo
RADIO should be built up the Arkansas
river with branches at Salida over the
Continental divide to the western por-
tion of the state and put themselves
on record as favoring an appropria-
ton from the legislature for that pur-
pose.

is definitely ascertained whether the
enterprise in which he is engaged can
be placed upon commercial basis or
not.
MIR Truax is hopeful OF ultimate
success in his undertaking. but says
that his Investigations will have to
be persued for several weeks yet be-
fore he is absolutely certain that his
process will pay with the refractory
ores at his command. His experiments
are many problems of a difficult char
acter TO be overcome before success
is assured. He stated to the Daily
Record this afternoon that the de-
nland or such product as he had In
view was greater at present than II
had been for several years and that the
question of a market was not troub-
ling him nearly as much as the appli-
cation OF a cheap method of extract
ing the pigment from the raw mater
ial
He said that the reports that the
smelter was soon to start up under
his supervision with a full quota of
men was without any foundation in
fact and that II had its origin in the
imagination OF those who knew moth
ing OF his purposes or plans. He
stated that II the smelter did resume
operations. which he implied was cas-
ily within the range OF possibility,
that 1t would he two or three months
before the necessary repairs and al
teratfonB could be made thsro to en-
able him to handle any considerable
amount OF business. II Mr.. Truax can
demonstrate the practIcabillty and
economy Of his system OF extracting
the pigment from the lead-zinc orcs

All OF us have so often seen grow
ing near the house or in the yard
apples trees whose lives would be en-
dangered were their records for fruit
bearing Investigated. Very often they
are healthy, thrifty looking trees in
the best of condition, as far as wood
growth is concerned.
In most of these cases there is no
reason. other than the inertia of the
owner for this unfruitful condition.
The word grating has an omin-
Gus and mysterious sound to some
who might by surprisingly small
amount of time and work perform sim
pie operations In top grating which
would be the cause of such barren
trees becoming fruitful and useful
as well as ornamental.
Almost any man or boy with the
slightest degree of ingenuity and dex-
terity can saw of a limb. split the
stub and slip in couple of scions,
or twigs cut from some good apple
tree. True, ii may be a rough job,
but you will be surprised at the feel
ing of pleasure you will experience
when you see the little twigs begin
to grow. and later to blossom and
bear fruit
The process of top grating is not
so difficult to understand and to per-
form as the average person thinks.
First, go to some good bearer and
a good variety, and cut your scions.
II for the novelty of the thing, or for
the purpose of experimenting, you
wish to try two or more different va
rieties, it is quite practicable to graft
several varieties on one tree. Trees
have been seen bearing seven or eight
different kinds of apes at one time.
You may have to get your scions from
some neighbor (scions are simply
twigs from last years growth). The
scions should be cut while the tree is
dormant or any time before growth
starts in the spring, but preferably in
the fall. as the buds begin to sweel
sometimes soon after the first OF jan
uary. Take for your scions the tips
of the limbs which have made a
growth of from twelve to eighteen
inches the previous summer. Do not
take water sprouts or shoots coming

From Out Of the Chaos

From out Of the horror Of tho Civil
war sprang . spirit that still shines
n beauty after forty-nine eventful
ysars-the spirit Of devotion. of self

It was identical In quality and In de-
grse, on both sides of the irreconcil-
liable issue, and It's fragrance is equal

eenefs tion the opportunity to see this
spirl outlive and dominate the con-
dict which gave 1t birth, and shine

II Is but another proof that though
the divine spark may be kindled by
mers human agencies and human

After Many Years

Fifteen years ago proceedings were
begun to secure for Miss Clara Ran
guis, daughter Of Joseph Ranguis,
who at one time resided on one Of the
forks Of the Little Beaver and who
died at Leadville Of pneumonia in
1883, some property which he had
fallen heir to In France
Opposition to the plan of convert
ing the property. which was real es-
tate, into money, by some of the rel
atives, caused an unusual delay.
However, it was finally sold, and
not long thereafter the lawyer at
tending to the business In that coun-
try died, and from some cause or
other the matter laid In abeyance for
about ten years.
A little over two years ago Judge
Wildhack, who was thoroughly con-
vereant with the case, began investi-
eating, and while there were no ser
ious stumbling blocks in the way,
lot OF time was consumed. To be
brief, the young lady, who is now
Mrs. P. ]. Ahern, residing at Lead
Vile, received the. first instalment
(being the bulk) of her Inheritance,
1t amounting to something like 81, 100.
Her many friends hereabouts, and
they are many, as she visits the Hol-
lands, her nearest relatives, every
year or two, will be pleased to hear
of her good luck.
