ADVISES PlANnk6
TREES THIS SPRING.

Fort Collins, March 29-Tree plant
ing is advised for this spring. B. O..
Longyear. of the Agricultural college
says:
The coming spring promises to the
especially favorable for tree planting
in Colorado Few things that grow
can make farm home more attrac-
tive than shade trees properly set and
cared for and they often enhance the
value of place when selling.
There may be cases in which lani
is too valuable for other crops to make
it desirable to plant trees along the
borders of fields and the banks of
ditcnes. In most cases. however,
small areas can be found that might
better be growing trees for fence
posts, poles and fuel than to be crop
ped or left to produce weeds.
For shade about the home, the
lance leaf cottonwood, propagated
from a non-cotton bearing tree, the
elm, honey locust, white ash, Norway
maple, black walnut, Eastwood, burr
oak, mountain ash, and our native
evergreens are desirable and largely
successful For quick growth for wind
breaks, cheap fence posts. poles and
fuel the white and gray willows and
native cottonwoods are hard to excel.
A single row of red cedar or blue
spruce, while requiring longer time
to grow, will make a more effective
shelter from the wind than any of the
broad leaf trees, and 1T is further
more as efficient in winter as in sum-
mer The black and honey locusts are
of comparatively slow growth, but
furnish especially desirable timber
for posts. The quicker growing spe-
cies may, however. be treated with
some simple preservative process
which will make them more lasting,
often. than the slower growing kinds.
Plans should be made now on every
ranch not possessing trees to set at
lease few where they will be using
unoccupied corners or other waste
land and which may some day supply
wood material for number of pur-
poses about the place.

Col. d. X. B. Sellers. well known
here as a former general sales agent

nominated for mayor of Albuquerque.
New Mexico, by the Democrats of that

Col. Sellers will make his campaign
declares in favor of so graduating the
city licenses for various purposes as
to increase the revenues enough to
take care of the necessary expendit-
ures without raising the tax levy; the
purchase of market grounds where
farmers and gardeners to do so may
offer their produce for sale and thus
assist in a reduction of the cost of liv-
ing: more effective sanitary laws and
their rigid enforcement; more and
better amusements for the public; the
planting of trees and shrubbery with
a view OF making albuquerque "a city
beautiful and a judicious. economi-
cal expenditure of the municipal ap-
propriations.

COLORADO HAS 5,532
MILES OF RAILROAD
WITHIN ITS BORDERS

Colorado has 5,5S25O miles of rail
road tracks within its borders.
1t has "a miles of line for every
10000 population.
1t has 5.34 miles of line for every
100 square miles of territory.
There is a net investment of 1921.
1856 in Colorado railroads exclus-
i've of the Union Pacific, Burlington,
Missouri Pacific, Rock Island, Santa
Fe or the Texas lines of the Colorado
& Southern. This investment is IN
road and equipment.
The interstate commerce commits
sion divides the railroads of the Unit
ed States up into ten groups, accord
ing to the territory they occupy. The
group in which Denver lies has 3d..
39s.02 miles of track. There is only
one other group in the United States
which has a greater mileage. The in
come of the railroads in the group
embracing Denver. for the fiscal year
ending June 30. 1910. was $262,2o2,-
223.
The above figures are taken from
the twenty-third annual report of the
interstate commerce commission which
was made public in Washington few
days ago. The report is the most ela5-
crate ever issued by the commission.
1t was complied under the new rules
for accounting which we're furnished
the railroads in 1909. 1t reveals for
the first time Just exactly where Colo
RADIO stands in the railroad world.
The report shows that Colorado has
1924 miles of track for every 10000
inhabitants. The average for this
state is high. There are only six
states in the Union which has q
greater mileage than Colorado for
every 10000 population. There are
forty-one states which do not make
as good a showing as Colorado.
In spite of this showing, however,
there is an average OF only 5.34 miles
of track for every 100 square miles
of territory. 1t has the smallest mile
age for every 100 spare miles of terri
tory of all states in the Union with
four exceptions. The figures show that
Colorado is in reality only SCRATCHED
on the surface when 1t comes to OPP
portunities for development.
Colorado railroads are shown to be
great advertisers. The Denver & Rio
Grande spent s154.ssS.56 for that
item. There are only fifteen railroads
in the country which exceeded 1t.
Four of these fifteen are trans-con-
tinental lines with terminals in Colo
RADIO.
Colorado is easy on railroads when
it comes to taxation. The taxes and
assessments on all lines in this sta.e
for the fiscl year of 1910 were 1885,
739, or s306 per mile of line Thirty
two states have greater average per
mile of line than Colorado and sixteen
have a smaller average.

FATAL SHOOTING IN MACON.
Young Man Shoots Woman, Alleging
Insult to Sister.

Macon, Ca, March 24.-Lep Mey-
er, a vaudeville actor, tonight shot
and fatally wounded Mary Moore, the
proprietress of disorderly house in
~ Tenderloin, about 10 o'clock. The
More woman, it seems, owed Mey-
er's sister millinery bill and, claim
having been pressed, the woman call
ed up Miss Meyer over the telephone
this afternoon and, it is asserted, in
suited her. Meyer took his brother
with him, went to the house, closeted
himself with the woman and shot
her. He then called the police and
gave himself up. He stated in the
barracks that he did not shoot until
the woman pulled revolver out of
a bureau drawer.
Doctors at the city hospital state
the woman cannot recover. She was
shot through the neck.

THE CRIME OF A NEGRESS.
Murdered a White Woman at Hamp
ton, Virginia.

Mrs. Virginia Belote, widow and
mother of eight children, was found
murdered at her home on Creek ave-
nue., Hampton, Va, Monday afternoon
by her 13-ycar-old daughter, Harriet,
upon returning from school. \ trail
of blood through the rooms OF the
lower floors, overturned furniture and
broken crockery showed that the
death struggle had been a terrific
one before the woman was rendered
unconscious by blows on the head
and towel stuffed in her throat and
mouth. Her head was horribly mutt
lated. A shattered heavy piece Of
crockery ware indicated that this had
been used to infict the wounds. An
investigation by the police led to the
discovery that Mrs. Belote had threat
ened to have Virginia Christian, a
negress, arrested for the theft OF
some clothing and the woman was
placed under arrest. Later purse
identified as that of the dead woman
was found on the negress and a
bloody waist was found in her room.

POTASH FOUND IN CALIFORNIA
Enough to Supply Country for 81
Years, Perhaps.

Washington, March 21.-Enough
potash to supply the United States,
probably, for the next 80 years, has
been discovered by the government
scientists in Searles Lake, San Fran
cisco county, California. The esti-
mate of the geological survey and the
bureau of soils field men was that
the deposit may amount to four mil
lion tons, but the authorities here,
from data in their possession, consid-
er that estimate conservative and be-
lieve more than ten million tons of
potash are available there.
The great value of the find is that
the product is in readily available
commercial form. Potash is known
to exist in many places in the United
States, but in most cases no CONNER
cial means has been found to use it.
The dri I'd up lake has received
the drainage from the surrounding
hills for thousands of years, vast
quantities of dissolved minerals thus
having concentrated in it. Similar
dried up lakes containing valuable
deposits, it is believed by officials
here, exist in the arid regions and
will be discovered.

CHILD STRUCK BY AUTOMOBILE
Heavy Machine Passes Over Spar.
tanburg School Girl.

Spartanburg, March 20.-While
returning from school at l o'clock
tnis afternoon, Charlotte Dehon, the
S-year-old daughter Of Theodore De-
hon, was run down by the automobile
of B. King Cooper. The little girl
was knocked to the ground and the
huge car passed over her unconsci-
Gus form, but fortunately her body
lay between the wheels and these did
not pass over her.
The accident occurred on South
Church street, near the intersection
of Broad, and at the foot of rather
steep grade. The car was going at a
moderate rate of speed, but had gain"
ed great impetus in coming down the
hill. The brakes were applied as
tightly as possible, but the momentum
of the machine caused it to skid. Ac-
cording to the story of an eye-wit-
ness, the child did not see the car un-
til it was nearly on her and too late
for her to get out of the path. She
stopped and was struck by the front
of the touring car. She lay on
the pavement while the heavy ma
chine passed over her.
DR.. F. L. Potts was nearby at the
time and he picked the child up and
carried her to his private sanitarium.
She did not regain consciousness un-
til late this afternoon, but it is still
impossible to determine the extent
of her injuries. There is no doubt
that they are serious, but physicians
cannot determine whether or not they
will prove fatal.
There were several ladies in the
car at the time of the accident and
the little girl was with several of her
schoolmates. No blame is attached
to the driver OF the car.

THE HEART BREAKERS.

Among the successful musical com edies of last season, The Heart Breakers which will be seen at the Elks theater on october r ranked among the first. Under the manage ment of Mort H. Singer, the company after a six months engagement at the Princess theater in Chicago, was seen for d season on the road. This year it will be presented in an en- tirely new version, with new scenery and costumes.
 The cast will still be headed by George Damerel, whom the theater- goers of the country will remember for his clever performance of the Prince" in the Merry Widow" This will be MT. DamerePs second season as a star and if the critics are to be believed he has as good a part if not better than he had when in the Merry Widow" Manager Singer has surrounded MT Damerel with a clever cast among whom are Miss Myrtle Vail, a new pripa donna whom he found in Europe, Miss Claire NOelke. Lorraine Bernard, Ed ward Hume Charles Horn. and forty others including a perfect Princess singing and dancing chorus The play is in two acts, the first taking place at the Saxon club in New York, and the second at Castle Munger in the AdirOndacks. There are numerous song hits. Some of those that are of the whistling kind being Your Eyes, Your Smile and You" The Tale of the Bashful Rumble Bee" My Honolulu Honey Lou" and Somewhere She's Flirting With Someone"
 Edward Hume who will be seen as The Chimney Sweep" will be re membered for his clever work with Frank Daniels, and also with The Flower of the Ranch" several seasons ago. MT. Hume is considered one of the best eccentric dancers in the mu- sical comedy game today and ample opportunity has been given him to show his versatility in the second act of the Heart Breakers" The chorus of this pleasing musical play has Tot only been picked for their sing ing. but also their dancing ability as well. and in the Honolulu Honey Lou" number ill the second act they more than prove it.
