TIMES HAVE CHANGED

In grandfather's day the
American family stayed
pretty much in one place.
it grew up on the old farm.
or lived in the comfortable
farm house. The children
went not more than a mile
to school. and going away
to college was exceptional.
Travel had not become
general.
But the world has been ex-
tended. Today the typical
American family is scattered
much of the time. Father
hurries back and forth be-
tween cities on business.
Mother has her own interests.
and goes to meetings. con-
ventions, on visits and jaunts.
These modern conditions
are all good. They mean a
broader life and better op-
portunities. But they also
bring a certain element Of
anxiety and loneliness, due
to separation. Trains are
delayed, epidemics break out
in schools. rumors and alarms
come flying from many di-
rections, very often ground
less, yet causing worry and
fear.
The first resource in such
emergencies should be the
long distance telephone.
The family with the best
realization of the telephone
possibilities enjoys the great
est peace Of mind.

Las Anlmas 9, Rocky Ford 4, Tells
the Sad Tale

the Sad Tale
Rocky Ford's long string of victories
was rudely broken by Las Animas when
they defeated our boys to the tune of 9
to at Las Animas last Sunday. The
game was good one and the defeat was
due in the main to the inability Of our boys
to hit Yeager. the Las Animas twirler. He
held our boys to the lowest number of
hits Of any opponent they have met this
season. only five being gathered off his
delivery in the nine sessions and some
of those we're of the scratch variety.
In each of the first and second innings
Las Animas got a run and in the third
they fell onto Bernard for seven hits for
as many runs. making their total nine be-
fore they were checked. Thereafter. how
ever they were completely at Bernard's
mercy, failing to score in the last six
innings. Once in the seventh inning Rocky
Ford started what looked like a winning
rally. having already scored three runs
and had the bases full with one down.
Maxwell tried to score on passed ball
and was caught and Moore hit a terrific
liner into the hands OF the third baseman
which he held and the rally was killed,
1t was good game and we'll play ed on
both sides. No glaring errors were made
by either team. AN that were made were
on hard chances.
Following is the hoy score.

MISTAKEN FOR CONVICT
Rocky Ford Man Arrested by Posse
i'm Fremont County

A man giving his name as Yates, a
resident of Rocky Ford who is said to bear
a remarkable resemblance to Charles A.
Morgan, the escaped convict who is want
ed for the murder of Walter Irwin on up
per Four -Mile-Crcek on the ] l5th inst.
had rather exciting and unpleasant ex-
perienee at,Hillside in the western part Of
Fremont county on Sunday afternoon.
While walking down the railroad tracks
toward Westcliffe, he met the Rev. S. H.
Sperry and some friends on their way
home from church services. After passing
the weary traveller they concluded that
he was the much wanted Morgan for
whose capture $500 reward is now offer
ed.
The word was passed on and posse
soon organized, who captured the man
without any resistance being made, al
though he stoutly avowed his innocence.
The officers at Canon City were at once
notified of the capture and Sheriff Esser,
Deputy Warden Allen Jameson and Cap
tain Billy Green of the renitentiary at
once repaired to the scene. where they
found the man securely tied and well
guarded by armed men. About a hundred
men had gathered at the place.
As soon as the penitentiary officers saw
the man they knew it was not Morgan
and so he was released and went on his
way rejoicing.

instructions for Baby;s Care

and once at night. From the third day
to SIX weeks the baby should be nursed
every two hours during h day and
twice at night; from 6 weeks to 6
months every three hours and once at
night; from 6 months to a year, six
times between 8 o'clock q. m. and 10
o'clock p. M, and not at all during
the night.
In addition to milk, babies require
water from the very first. The old
granny who gave the baby teas was a
pretty good scientist, though she did
not know 1t. OF course, the herbs
which she used to make the tea from
had no particular effect, but she vas
giving the baby sterilized, warmed
water, and that was as it should be.
After about the second month the
baby should AVE some orange juice
every day. The Juice should be given
freed from pulp. The amount should
begin with two teaspoonfuls a day and
should be gradually increased to foul
t~ablespoonfuls, especially where there
is a tendency to constipation. 1t Is
much better to relieve constipation
with orange Juice than by enemas, and
certainly than by medicine, since
babies need a little fruit Juice to COR
rect any tendency to scurvy and
ricketts,.
That the mother may give enough
milk to supply the baby. 1t Is neces-
sary that she be free from worry and
not called upon to do a great amount
of physical labor. Emotion has more
effect on the secretion of milk than
does the food taken. Occasionally a
woman will overeat until she becomes
obese trying to give milk enough for
her baby, and then worry SO. fearing
her milk will fail. that she gains moth
ing for her trouble.
There are no special foods which
make milk. Beer does not; neither
does milk. Some women have the Idea
that milk taken as a food runs with
out muc change into milk for the
baby. This Is not correct. A mother
should eat good, nutritious, simple,
staple food containing a good deal Of
fluids.
That which she eats. does not go
directly to milk. 1t Is digested and
changed chemically thereby. It is alb
and still further changed. Evi-'
IDENTIFY 1t is changed into milk. She
should increase the quantity OF food
eaten, since, for her own use. she needs
more than she usually does. and, in
addition. she is eating for the baby.
The average woman nursing one
baby can supply the child with food out
of her surplus If she will keep her mind
calm. her rest unbroken and not have
too much work to do. The average
woman who thinks she cannot nurse
her baby can do so If she will try.
