HUGH ROBINSON

Hugh Robinson is from Missouri an |
he will have to be shown that he cannot
win the aeroplane race from New York
to Philadelphia. Certainly the man
who beats this expert aviator VIII nave
to show the utmost speed and daring.
The kind of a man Robinson is may be
indicated by the fact that he makes
l3 his lucky number. Considering how
Robinson has dared death in the ~
years of his adventurous existence, It
may be said that he is indeed lucky to
be alive. For a while he was bal
oen.st and parachute jumper. Then
he earned living by ''looping the
loop on a bicycle; the pedalled ma
chine seemed too safe, so he made the
act more thrilling by using motor
cycle in his marvellous leap for life.
Next he varied his death defying per
formances by driving automobiles IN
hotly contested races. From automo-
He piloted the famous "hydro- curve
motor boat which broke all speed
records on the Illinois and Mississippi
rivers. Then, so to speak, he went up
in the air A natural mechanic, an ex-
pert in the construction and utilization
of gas engines, having the experience
factories, Robinson built the first
American monoplane. He made the
machine fly little, but before he had
his monoplane perfected, storm came
along and wrecked it. Undiscouraged,
, Robinson crossed the Atlantic and
worked for two years in French shops.
The experience gained in France was
not entirely satisfactory to Robinson,
so he returned to the United States.
On coming home he built for himself
byplane of the, Curtis type and made
got his machine off the ground.
Robinson joined the Curtiss forces in
California last winter, at the San Fran
cisco meet he won the principal novice
prizes. At San Diego, Robinson was
one of those who assisted Glenn H
Curtiss in the experiments that event
ually proved the entire praeticability
of the hydro -aeroplane.
In exhibition flights throughout the
country, Robinson has shown great pro-
ficiency ;he doesn't hesitate to under
take difficult fights; one of his special.
ties is the development of speed; from
every viewpoint, Robinson appears TO
be formidable competitor in the aero,
plane race from New York to Philadel,

Robinson will give an aeroplans ex.
hibition in Glenwood Springs at th4
race meet Aug. 30-Sept. 2.

1MM1eAr1oN BOARD "1RoKE"
Editor Glenwood Post,
Glenwood Springs, Colo.

Glenwood Springs, Colo.
Dear Sir:-The maintenance fund OF
the State Board of Immigrtion has
been placed in what is known as the
fourth class. The first class comprises
all executive, judicial and legislative
departments; the second class covers
all institutions for dependents; the
third class educational institutions and
the fourth class covers all boards. The
fifth class covers all other appropria-
tions. Fourth class payments must,
however, be delayed, it is announced,
until funds for the purpose become
available.
The immigration Board salary and
Incidental funds-the latter covering
stationery, postage, etc.-are in the first
class, so that no provision is needed
beyond that made by the legislature.
But it will be impossible for us 20
continue the Bulletin to do advertis.
ing which brings US the inquiries, ex-
cept by an appeal to all those to whom
this service is and will be of value.
We have the assurance of the COVER
nor and the auditor that they firmly
believe that our entire maintenance
fund will be available before the end
of the year, and with this as the ba'
sis we have decided upon the follow
ing method Of procedure:
We will issue a voucher for every
dollar contributed to the board and
deposit this with the auditor to be
paid Just as soon as the maintenance
fund becomes available. Whatever we
ask for as contribution will more than
| likely be repaid before November 30th.
We have decided to place a charge
to individual firms of $40 per year
for the bulletins (subject to repayment:
as above outlined), and in case it IS
ordered by commercial body we have
decided to make the charge as follows,
Subject to repayment as outlined
above): $25 where from 3 to 10 bull
letins are required; $50 where from 10
to 25 bulletins are required, and 500
a year for any amount over 25. This
will proportion the bulletin service to
the size of communities, will enable
commercial bodies to take it in quanti-
ties and will enable individuals to sub
scribe for it, provided they are on on:
list at the present time or are mem
bers in good standing of CONNER
cial body or real estate association.
The service begins at once under this
arrangement and will be confined ex-
clusively to those who send in their
subscription money.
But it should be understood that ev
cry dollar that is subscribed will be
accounted for in the voucher which
will at once be deposited for repay
ment with the state auditor.
All checks for the Colorado State
Board of Immigration should be made
out as follows: Roady Kenehan, State
Treasurer, for the Colorado State Boarl
of immigration. Sincerely yours,
ALFRED PATEK,

AN IDEAL HOME

We hear great deal these times about
the ideal happy home, and men are NOT
scarce who expect all the requisites for
happy home to come from one side Of
the house.
A woman may do her level best to make
life and home happy for her husband and
children, but if she is treated as slave,
and only given her board in payment for
her services as mother, wife, cook, laun-
dress. nurse girl, ,ichambermaid and seam
stress, is it any wonder that little or no
happiness exists in that home? TIA mother
spoils her by pampering and waiting
on him all the years of his childhood, and
making him think that man should al
ways be waited on by the woman of his
household, is it strange that he expects q
wife to do the same, aud that, in all like
lihood she either wears out in few
years from such service or becomes bitter
or dishesrtened. We are often told that
in every true and ideal marriage both
husband and wife must learn to bear and,
forbear. In every home where happiness
exisis, there must be perfect trust, con-
fidence and love betweene husband and
wife. There are two kinds of sunshine
in the world, and both qnite necessary
the one which is caused by the suns
shining out doors. and the other by shin.
ing in' our hearts. 1t is the lovely DECIDE.
the CHEEKY hopeful words and the kindly
thoughtiullness that each member shows
toward the Others that makes an ideal
happy home-a pt RECT heayenon earth.

What a Man is Made Of

As you may feel a personal interest,
dear reader, in knowing what the average
true-born Briton is composed Of, here ;s
the official formula. He has stored with
in him sufficient material for thirteen
pounds of candles, and the following other
useful articles Of commerce; one pound Of
nails, 800 carbon pencils, binding for six.
teen books (octayo.) 500 knife handles,
twenty eight violin strings, twenty tea
spoonfuls Of salt, and one pound Of loaf
sugar.
Itis really fortunate that the law en-.
forces the burial or cremation of the de-
funct. Otherwise there are plenty Of
people about who, on receipt Of the above
striking information. would utilize their
deceased relatives to stock general shop.

CANNED GOODS ACTIVE

Brokers and some OF the jobbers are
now disposed to take keener interest in
future canned goods, especially corn and
tomatoes. Harry P. strasbaugh, Of Stras.
baugh, Silver & Co., Aberdeen, Md, says:
"The year 1911 should be banner one for
canned goods at banner prices, and those
who get banner prices can afford to pack
good goods and let it be known, 1t looks
like 1911 will not be slingy year. A
humming business for the past two weeks
cnvers the record of contracts for both
future corn and tomatoes, and there are
more orders still untitled, large ones, and
the buyers are getting uneasy. Early
prices for both corn and tomatoes we're
more of a joke than matter OF record.
1t took the packers little while TO wake
up to the true situation, Like 'Old Rip
they had to stretch their muscles, yawn
few times and the game was on, but not at
tie Il fret prices AeEaIded acrnae the conn.
try; for those who spoke, first spoke too
quickly and some are still talking a little
too fast.
.sIn spot tomatoes the odds are more in
favor of an advance. There is not the
slightest indication OF decline. The
probabilities are that there will be another
turn made by March 1st, and that toma-
toes will be near $l:00 per dozen.

Treatment For Rabies

The prompt and effective treatment oi
several cases Of rabies recently has proved
to the authorities Conelusively the good
that is being done by the Delaware State
Board Of Health. 10 the past few months
seven cases Of the disease, resulting from
serious dog bites. have been entirely
cured under the supervision of the board,
and more effective plans still are being
made for the future work Of The organiza-
ton in this connection. The treatment at
the laboratories now cost but S25, just
half Of what it formerly cost, and is sd-
miDistered in a much more effective way
than formerly.
This anti.rabies treatment is now Be-
cured from the government at Washing
ton. In the matter of the cure Of other

coRNsTALK PAPER

4
The day of paper made from cornstalk
has cane, the experiments Of the depart
ment Of Agriculture having proved thl
process can be made a commercial pro-
position. For some time these expert
ments have been under way. and nos
the department is utilizing some of the
cornstalk paper for it's correspondence,
and operate mill which turns out the
new paper, of high grade, by she hun
dred-pound lot. The experts of Uncle
Sam say that small commercial mill can
be kept busy through the entire year by
the stalks from the corn fields within a
radius of eight TO ten miles.
Perhaps it will not be many years be-
fore the farmer will look upon his stalks
as the most valuable part Of his corn crop.
If be can realize but half cent pound
be will get more for them than for bis
corn at sixty cents a bushel. The problem
OF making cheaper paper to compete with
the wood pulp article used for printing
newspapers has not been solved yet,
though the investigators are hopeful.
What this will mean can readily be real
ized when it is stated that about $35, ,00O,.
600 worth Of raw material, wood pulp, is
used annually in the paper-making busi-
ness in this country. That means great
many trees cut down.
The stalks are pressed until the juice, a
very rich stock food, lie extracted, then
shredded and dried. In this form they
will keep sweet 8 year, insuring steady
operation of the paper mill. Only two
thirds OF the fiber is utilized for print
paper, the remainder making q sort of
parchment, water-tight for a while, but
not absorbing the ink.
