THE PENSION BILL

The Sherwood pension bill was
signed by the president May IL.
Ihere are between 5000 and 1000
veterans in Colorado who are en-
tltled to an increase under this
act Their increase will only be-
gin from the time their applica-
tion is fled with the Bureau of
Pensions.
Representative Taylor has sent
the journal an official blank for
pensions under this bill on the
back of which is the act as passed
In Mr.. Tay lor's speech which
appears in the Congressional Rec
ord of May 10, leave was given
him to have inserted a compare.
tive table showing the increases
under this bill and the approx
mate number of soldiers benefited
thereby.
According to this table 42O, ,965
veterans will be benefited at an
annual increase of S25, ,797, ,5O2.
The increase depends on length
of service and age of the applicant.
A veteran 90 years of age who
served 60 days and now has a pen
sion of Sl2 month will have an
increase of S1.0O per month. A
veteran IS years of age who served
three years or more and now has a
pension of $50 per month will re-
ceive $50 per month by the pro-
posed rate or $120 per year.
Section l of the act provides:
THAT any person who served in
the military or naval service of
the United States during the Civil
war and received an honorable dis
charge, and who was wounded in
battle or in line of duty and is
now unfit for manual labor by rea-
son thereof, or who from disease
or other causes incurred in line of
duty resulting in his disability is
now unable to perform manual
labor, shall be paid the maximum
pension under this act, to wit, $50
per month, without regard to
length of service or age"

BIG SAN JUAN
WOOL SHIPMENTS

Conservative estimates of the
sheep and wool industry of the
San Juan basin show it to be one
of the most desired resources of
southwestern Colorado.
The annual shearing of the
sheep has been done. The wool
has been baled and most of it has
been shipped to the eastern wool
mills, particularly to Massachu-
setts. The total amount of wool
grown in the San Juan basin dur
ing the past year, the estimates
being taken from the shipments,
brings the grand total up to three
quarters of a million pounds.
The primaries of April 18th last
sounded the death knell to Pen
rose and Guffey as bosses of the
republican and democratic parties
in Pennsylvania, They were
crushed SO overwhelmingly by an
outraged public that it is doubtful
if they will ever be of any consid-
cradle significance in state politi-
cal affairs again. Should the di-
rect primary prove to be a failure
in every other state in this union,
its service to the people of Penn
sylvania in enabling them to over
throw these bipartisan bosses is
sufficient compensation for all that
has been done to place this weapon
in the hands of the people.

Gentlemen
Through the kindness Of one Of your

have been furnished with the number Of
acres of land in the San Luis Valley

counties Of Conejos, Costilla, Saguache
and Rio Grande. This being the amount
of acreage owned by the State at the
close of the biennial period, November

This land was undoubtedly selected
many years ago and it is reasonable to
suppose that the average OF fertility and
productlveness is as good as the best
land in the San Luis Valley, provided
water is secured for the irrigation Of the
same. Without water this land is prac-
tically worthless as whatever may be
the rule elsewhere, in the state, farming
cannot be successfully carried on in the
San Luis Valley without irrigation, as
the average of precipitation per annum
is only eight inches.
Without water, take it this
land is not worth more than

which the soap Jelly has melted and
gently scrub the partings OF the hair.
When that n finished empty the
water. and this time dipping my
fingers into the water, I rub the
scalp all over with the cushions OF
the fingers. When the water Is at all
clouded pour II out and use fresh
water. A sign that the hair has been
thoroughly cleansed Is that the
water that drips from II runs clear"
A most important part Of the
shampoo Is to thoroughly remove
the soap from the heir. This Is
done by pouring cool, not cold water,
over the head. The old fashioned
pitcher can well be used In this way.
A shower can be given with a spray
attachment to a bathtub. These
are cheap enough TO be within
the reach Of persons OF moder.
ate means. and they scatter the
water well instead OF pouring II
steadily on one spot For this reason
the larger the spray the better. The
best one Is that which Is OF the same
size az the head.
There are hot air tunnels, electri.
cal appliances and many devices for
drying the hair. The best, I be.
lieve, Is the cheapest. except In out.
lay OF time. drying with towel, In
the most sunshiny corner OF your
room, or, In the Summer. of your

A dry shampoo. with hair tonic,
should be applied to the scalp In the

ming OF the wet shampoo. Part the
hair In as many directions and with
as many parts as possible, and with
a soft tooth brush rub the tonic into
the scalp.
