PLANT TREES FOR
FENCE POSTS

While this is not the best season of
the year to set out trees in Colorado,
yet it is well to consider the matter
for next season. Almost every irri-
gated farm has some small piec of
land which cannot readily be used for
growing field crops, but which might
be suitable for growing enough fence
posts to supply the farm in the fu-
ture. The most desirable timbers, nat
urally, among trees adopted to this
region are the black and honey To-
Gusts and the hardy catalpa. The
hardy catalpa, however, is grown at
its northernmost limit in most parts
of this state north of Denver and is
liable to suffer from winter injury,
at least during the first few years.
The most rapid growing trees for
fence posts are the willows and the
Carolina poplar. OF the two, the will
lod is considered somewhat more dur
able. The Carolina poplar, however,
is capable of making such rapid
growth that it will produce, under ia
vorable conditions, three or four posts
in five years after planting. Its
straight, single stem, moreover, is
especially favorable for this purpose.
The timber, however, is 50 lacking In

ANXIOUS FOR EARLY RETURNS.

Owing to the fact that in several
OF the precincts no note was made Of
the vote it has been impossible ior
the press to furnish the people with
very definite or complete information
concerning the results of the election.
In many of the precincts the judges,
clerks or some other person made a
note of the vote cast and phoned it
in to The Herald office. The first and
complete returns sent in to The Her
aid was by the election officials in
precinct II in the east part Of Du-
range. This is one of the largest
precincts in the county and The Her.
aid desires to thank these officials and
all others who were kind enough TO
make list of the total vote and phone
them in. If all the precinct officials
would do likewise the press could
furnish the people with that informa-
ton they are so anxious to get at tit
earliest possible hour.
1t is true that this year the cleo
tion officials have had very unde-
sirable task, but when the poll books
are complete it requires but a few
minutes to copy the totals on a blank
ballot and send them in, or phone them
direct from the poll books if con-
venient. In some counties this is done
in a very systematic way and as a
result those counties are able to send
in their results to headquarters early
and thus the people of the state get
the information soon after the count
is complete at the various precincts.
In other counties no effort is made
to get in n complete report from the
various precincts as suggested above
and for this reason it is often several
days before any one can get an idea
of the definite results of the election.
This causes many candidates and 9TH
ers several days of needless anxiety.
1t is to be hoped that La Plata
county will join the system adopted by
many of the counties and have an ar
rangemcnt with the election officials
that they in every precinct in the
county make a complete list of the to-
tai vote for the public before sealing
their election returns and sending
them in to the county clerk. 1t should
be known that the clerk does not open
the ballot envelopes as soon as they
are brought in and that it takes a
day or two and often longer for the
county clerk to go over the poll books.
During this time those candidates
who have engaged in a close contest
are subjected to more or less worry
and valuable information can not be
given out to the people in the county
and state.

ELECTION SURPRISES.

One of the surprises of The election
Tuesday was the enthusiasm and
strength of the Roosevelt voters in
Denver. At the close of the po,,s on
Tuesday even the Democrats thought
that Wilson had lost Denver 20 Roose-
welt, although Wilson was running
strong in the state.
Another surprise was the partial
returns from Louisville, KY, which
gave Wilson $500 votes, Roosevelt
5,100 and Taft 1000. But few, if
any, thought that Roosevelt would
show any such strength so far south.
Another bulletin furnished Il sur
prise when it reported the first com-
plete returns from three counties in
Georgia with plurality for the
Rough Rider The state of Georgia
went overwhelmingly Democratic
Still another surprise was given in
a bulletin of the partial returns from
Arizona which gave Roosevelt $500.
Wilson 1,100 and Taft 1000 Ari-
zona is a Democratic state.
The vote for Debs in Chicago
aroused considerable interest when re-
ceived at the clubs where the citizens
of Durango had gathered to hear and
read the election returns. 1t was
$4,000 while that of Taft was lS,p0c,
Wilson $4,000 and Roosevelt $4,000.

FAVOR HEADLESS BALLOT.

1t now appears that the voters of
La Plata county are in favor of a
headless ballot whether or not they
voted for that proposed amendment.
The returns show that the voters
of the county had but little regard
for the names Democratic, Republican,
Progressive, Socialist or Prohibition.
1t would appear that about go per cent
or more Of the ballots of the county
were marked with one or more of the
cross marks used for designating par
tieular candidates for office.
In precinct IS, where there were
polled about 275 votes, there were but
twtnty-eight straight ballots. Other
precincts gave larger per cent OF
straight ballots.
1t is true that the scratching did
not by any means come from one
rarty in particular. The Democratic
party being the leading one, furnished

DYNAMITE CONSPIRACY A
WHOLESALE, BUSINESS

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Nov. r.
Specific accutations are made by the
government in the dynamite con-
spiracy" trial that, in the spring Of
1910, Frank NJ. Ryan, president of
the Iron Workers union, and member;
of the unions executive board enter
ed on campaign to systematically
blow up the property of certain iron
and steel contractors, and that in
furtherance of the plan President Ry.
an wrote from New York letters as.
signing men to have charge Of the
explosions in different localities; that
twenty-five explosions that year, in
GLIDING those at Los Angeles, were
carried ON with the knowledge of most
of the executive officers of the Inter
national Association of Bridge and
Structural Iron Workers.
Prosecutor Miller read a letter dated
April 10, 1910, in which Ryan is pur-
ported to have directed ]. j. McNam-
ara to instruct union officials at Pitts
burg, Buffalo, Rochester, Worcester,
Mass, Jersey City, Detroit, Cincinnati,

Vernon, III, "to take care of jobs"
in those districts.

durability that it is hardly worth
while to set it for posts without Civ
ing some preservatiye treatment.
Two coats of gas tar creosote can
readily be applied with a brush, after
seasoning the posts for six or eight
weeks, and thus make them of consid-
cradle greater durability. An mex
pensixe tank arrangement, or even a
barrel, may be used for dipping the
butt ends of the posts, by which
means their durability may be greatly
increased
All trees for posts should be SCI
rather close together, about a by
feet, in rows. Frequent cultivation
during the growing season will, t.
some extent, take the place of irriga
ton. Some pruning may be neces
sary during the first few years in or
der to secure single stems withou
forks or bad branches.

NOTABLE ACHIEVEMENTS.

The story of how the west was won
has never been adequately told. The
struggles of the pioneer and the con-
quering of the difficulties that beset
the path of the railroad builders were
something; but they were only the be-
ginning-the curtain raiser to the
drama that has held the boards ever
since, and has proceeded like Chi
nese play, without intermission.
1t is intended at the San Diego ex-
position to show how the west was
won. 1t is intended by the great
states carved out of that territory, to
show what they have done to advance
the cause of civilization. 1t is in
tended, moreover, to show what op-
portunities for the ambitious man and
woman these states hold.
An exposition is intended to let the
world know what has been achieved in
the line of human progress. AT the
San Diego exposition the greatest epic
since derelict stranded on Ararat
will be unfolded to the eyes of the
world.
No one has ever questioned the
truth of the saying that the great, st
benefactor of the race is the man who
caused two blades of grass to grow
where one grew before.
Mere figures would not convey to
the mind any conception of what the
west has added to the wealth of .h's
nation in the past fifty years.
Yes, there was the gold rush in 40.
California gave much to the wealth of
the nation from her placers and quartz
veins. But her petroleum alone now
equals the wealth from her gold
mines. And she once was celebrated
for her limitless fields of wheat; but
last year she sent to market some
$4,000 car loads of lemons and oranges
to name but one crop. And Wash
ington and Oregon are as famous
for their apples and pears-known in
London and Berlin as well as they are
in New York and Chicago. Nevada,
once thought valuable merely for her
minerals, is becoming celebrated for
her cattle and sheep and her irri-
gated farms. And so the story goes,
story that can never be told ade-
quately, but which the states will try
to tell at the San Diego exposition
1t is an eloquent and absorbing tale.
1t is one which the spectator can
scarcely note without profit to him
self. People will come from all over
the world to learn what San Diego
will have to show them. And they
will go away feelings that they have
been richly repaid.

LEADER WITHOUT FOLLOWERS


There is one man in the United
States who has most peculiar re-
lation to the political results OF the
election and this man is United States
Senator La Toilette of Wisconsin.
He was the man who started the
progressive movement in this country
by carrying everything progressive in
his state and then later being elected
to the national senate where he be-
gan his fight for reform in national
affairs. His fight was most aggres-
sive and he gathered around him sew
eral of the western senators. A com
bination was formed which was known
as the insurgent faction. They u'tited
with the Democrats and put several of
the reform or Democratic measures up
to President Taft which he vetoed.
These insurgents held the balance Of
power in the senate and had strong
lender in La Toilette. They spresd

DOES A HEN PAY HER BOARD?

The following is taken from the cur
rent issue of Farm and Fireside:
''Poultrymen are now debating
whether the hen or pullet is capable of
the greater egg production. There
is good argument on both sides.
Some claim that, while hens lay
less than pullets, they lay larger and
heavier eggs, and because of this fact,
the eggs command a better price than
those laid by pullets. This is true,
but in many sections of the United
States eggs are sold without grad
ing, and consequently, the smaller
egg is able to command as good a
price as the larger one.
Others are in favor Of pullets, be-
cause they lay so many eggs which,
they claim, possess better flavor
than those laid by hens. No one dis
puts the fact that pullets lay more
eggs than hens.
F 1.-THE question of which is the bet
ter, hens or pullets, will never be an
swered so that it will please every
one. 1t is simply matter of the
likes and dislikes of the individual
poultryman.
Personally, the writer favors pull
lets.
THE eggs of pullets do not hatch
as well as those of hens. Not only
that, but the chicks do not seem
nearly so strong and lively as those
hatehed from hen eggs. For this rea-
son, then, the writer would advise pul.
lets for market eggs and hens for
breeders.
"The falling off of the number of
eggs from the first year to the =.
ond year of the hens life is abNut
fifty eggs. This is quite an item,
and because of this fact many claim
that hen does not pay her board
At the average price of eggs during.
the winter, fifty eggs would mean
about two dollars in money, which
is quite loss for each hen.
Hens that are kept for breed ,r5
should be ones that have never becn
forced for heavy egg production. ~
cause of the terrible strain on their
reproductive systems, the larger per
cent of their eggs are infertile, and
what chicks do hatch are weak"
