GOOD ROADS DAY.

Now is the time to plan for a
Good Roads Day in every county in
the state. Prowers county, one of
the first to have such a day last
year, is already planning for this
year. The suggestion has been made
however, that the good roads day
this year be on the same day in all
the counties along the Santa Fe trai
and Rainbow route.
This suggestion will probably be
carried out. and some day in April
thousands of men and hundreds of
Teams will be seen at work on one
road, and their labors will extend
over a distance of more than 200
miles.
A good roads day means much to
any county and now is the time to
plan this work. From the results OBJ
tanned last year, roads in the coun-
ties having such day were much i'm
proved and the work done worth
thousands of dollars.

MONEY, CHURCH AND SOCIETY
FAILED TO CLEAR HIM

Two cases of at least statewide
notoriety have just concluded in
Colorado and in the first there is
ample proof that "higher-ups" will
get their proper dues in some west
ern counties just as do the poorer
classes when confronting courts on
charges of graft and theft.
Estes, wealthy resident of Weld
county who was a member of the
board of county commissioners, has
just been sentenced to from seven
to ten years in the state pen a Can
on City and donned the stripes
Wednesday evening. He was man
of great wealth, church and social
factor, but he wanted more money
faster than honest methods would
permit. He stole systematically
from the county and now he must
undergo penalty which should
forever disqualify him for member
ship in former circles.

ket was steady to n dime lower.
Demand was good for everything
and more cattle could have been
used every day. Good steers sold
at $3.50 to s6.40. good cows at $4.-
IS to $50 and fancy cows and
heifers up to s5.35, the highest
price paid here this season for this
class of stuff. Bulls sold at $3.50
to $40 and calves from $3.50 to
IS. according TO quality. Bulk of
the offerings consisted OF beef a1d
the movement was active. A few
feeders and stockCrs arrived and
they sold at about steady prices.
Demand for feeders is good. but of
course the market is quiet at this
time of the year.
Hogs were in strong demand and
the market in fine shape. Good
hogs are now selling at 500 to Sc.
80. Prices paid here are higher
than at the river markets and ship
ments are wanted. Bulk of the hogs
here sold today for $6.15 to 1920.
This looks good compared to bulk
at Chicago for 500 to 1928 and at
ST. Joseph SO to $3.50.
Sheep demand is strong and the
movement active.
