just a Word in Explanation.

The folk dance" which has been
introduced into the public schools of
Grand Junction is simply form of
physical training. They are embod-
led in the course of study in a num-
her of eastern cities. C. Ward
Champion, NJ. D.. director of physical
training in the New York schools, has
compiled book of these dances, put
ting in those dances and games
which will best give to the children,
Great joy of life in rhythmic eXer-
eises." This book the public schools
of Grand Junction are using. Songs
plays, games, drama and muscular
work are charmingly intermixed In
no way do they lead to or take the
place of aesthetic dancing. The chill
dren take great delight in them.

The musical program to be given
n the assembly room of the new
ligh school building Friday evening
this week contains an interesting va
riety. The high school glee clubs
and the high school orchestra are
making thorough preparation and ex-
pect TO do their best. All lovers of
music, we believe, will find some
hing to suit their individual taste.
Miss Moulton's idea to have a Victro-
la in our high school is a progressive
thought. Many leading schools to-
day are giving musical education
TO the students by the means of the
Victrola. The young people no doubt
will be greeted by large and appre-
ciative audience.

IN THE "RAIN BELT"

The Dry Farming Congress, as
well as the real estate agents of
cities located near such territory
are still advocating the science of
raising crops without rain.
Dry farming is usually nice sue
cess when it rains enough to help
make the crops. The danger of fail
ure, however, is always present, and
the situation to the farmer in such
sections. where success or failure
may come any season. must be
nerve wrecking.
The past year has been particu-
larly distressing to the residents OF
the plains country east of Denver.
The crops last year We're either very
light or an entire failue and the
wrLter following was one of the
most severe on record. There was
little feed for stock and as a result
the bulk of all owned has starved
to death. In order to save a little
of that remaining and to assist the
farmers of the belt who are said
to be starving also, Denver is now
making an effort to raise 100000
to loan them IN small amounts, the
loans to be payable when another
crop shall be raised.
There is doubtless an amount of
science in soil cultivation methods
and in the adaptability of hardy
grains sown on such lands, but water
always has been and always will be
an essential in crop raising.
1t is doubtful If our Western
slope people fully appreciate their
land under its big bitches. which car
ry water for them to use at their

THE BUTTER TRUST.

The difference between prices Of
creamery and ranch butter the past
winter, forms a subject for thought.
In this part of the state ranch
butter has remained steady at about
35 cents a pound, while creamery
butter has scared as high az 45c
pound at the retail stores
Inquiry has brought the follow
ing replies: Ranch butter, when
good. is entirely satisfactory to
consumers. but it's quality Is not
dependable. The price of creamery
butter is dictated. usually from
Elgin. Illinois. the scarcity or de-
mand influencing tho prices placed
upon the general output. Demand for
both products. creamery and ranch
butter has been strong and the sup
ply limited
The incentive to produce n regular
grade of country butter would seem
sufficient to stir up the butter max
ers on the farms.
