GREAT ice
JAMS IN0THE
ARKANSAS

Ice jams In the Arkansas river are
causing considerable trouble. West OF
Pueblo the river has been forced out
Of Its banks by an fee gorge and Is
said to be two miles wide. A number
OF cattle have been caught in the bot
toms and in one place about - miles
west of Pueblo IL head of cattle are
on an island surrounded by the Ice
covered water OF the river. and there
is little chance OF getting them out
before they starve or freeze.
Stockmen having herds in the bot
toms are trying to drive the herds out
but the stock is reluctant to leave the
timbered stretches along the river for
the open ranges. where there is no
shelter and no water.
There is more ice in the Arkansas
river than for many years. In some
places the ice is said to be piled 200
feet high from the jams. At these
places there is n gorge OF ice which
efectualiy dams the river and forces
the water to spread out until It can
force a new channel around the jams
Enormous jams occur at most of
the head gates OF the irrigating ditch
es. and in many instances the bitches
are entirely blocked with ice so that
no water is passing through. The
municipal water plants in Pueblo
have men employed night and day
fighting threatened jams at the in-
take canals OF the plants. At one time
the North Side plant was cut Off IS
hours and the South Side plant had to
supply most OF the water for part OF
the down town section. Should heavy
jams occur at both plants at the same
time and resist the attempts made to
dlslodge them for any lengthy period.
water famine might be occasion I'd
in the city. To prevent this there is
stored a large quantity of dynamite
at each water plant and watchmen
are kept constantly on guard. As
soon as the intakes begin TO clog up
with ice to such an extent that msn
with poles cannot open the channels.
dynamite is resorted to. So far the
channels have been kept opel and
there is thought to be little danger OF
serious blockade since the watch
men have been put on
Another phase OF the fght against
the cold spell and the ice jams in the
river is that which is threatening the
railroads and county bridges by
the ice jams which arc forming about
the bridges across the Arkansas river
and its tributaries. So far the bridges
are all safe and. fortunately. there
have been no serious Jams at the
bridges. but watch is being constantly
kept at a number of important rail-
road and county bridges and the au-
thorities are prepared to put dyna-
, mite crews to work at any time Ice
Jams threaten tho safety Of tho

Some Apple Pie, Surely!

More than 100000 apples we're
contained in about 2, 600 exhibits at
the Fifth National Apple Show, held
last week in Spokane. The Spokane
boosters baked what was probably the
largest pie ever baked. 1t consisted
of 500 bushels of apples, cored and
quartered; one and one-fourth tons
of sugar, 500 pounds of spices, case
of lemons, 80 pounds of butter, salt
and eggs, and 2, 500 pounds of -four.
The pot, when filed with sauce,
weighed 10 tons. 1t took two and a
half hours to cook it, and two hours
to serve the crowd. d.-Ex.

effect this transcends all other out

SPOKANE, Nov. 20.-The best
output of the Fifth National Apple
show is the realization and the resolve
by the orchardists of the Pacific
Northwest that they must all get to-
gether and all pull together and all
work for the expansion OF the industry
and the solution of the two-fold
problem of bringing all northwest
producers of apples into cooperation
and of putting the matters of distribu
ton, transportation and utilization

Be it resolved, that Monday, De-
cember 10th, 1912, at Spokane, be des-
ignated as the time and place at
which delegates from the various fruit
producing districts in the northwest
ern states shall convene to work out
plan for cooperative marketing;

send request to each fruit produc-

and,
Whereas, it is the sense of this
meeting that an effort should be made

and other fruits may be so marketed
as to prevent the crop of one grower
coming in ruinous competition with
that of others, and that this result
can only be attained by some scheme

brought forth her grass, seed and
fruit, when the day-god stood for
the first time the everlasting aureole
hat shall be for signs and for sea-
sons, for days and for years: and
the stars had taken their places in
the invisible ether and all things
we're ready, then God said: Let
the waters bring forth the fowl that
may fly above the earth" and
never has there been a time since
that great fifth day of creation that
the feathery tribe has not played
its part in the affairs of men.
They we're at the first naming
Of created beings. They were at
the first flood. Two by two. gay
and guiltless pairs, they went into
the ark, and from it's window one
went forth and brought back the
olive leaf Of hope. Throughout the

wilderness the Lord chose them as
the evening food for his hungry peo-

in the time of famine as he kept his
lonely watch by the brook, and it
was the growing of the cock that
brought the repentant Peter to his
Knees and made him weep tears of
bitterness when he realized he had
betrayed his Lord The fowl was in
the vision of the heavenly basket

open to the Gentiles.

ylumed their flight from star to

worlds as far as the universe
throws its flaming wall" and the
launts of man are found. They
have been chisled by sculptors,
painted by artists. sung by poets
and chanted by musicians. They
are things of beauty and of worth.
