In feeding the little pigs with older
hogs, it is necessary to have some sort
of separate feding pen for the pigs.
The older ones can be kept out and
the pigs prevented from entering the
pen while the troughs are being filed
by means of swinging gate.
This gate swings outward only. 1t

FACILITATES MINE .RESCUES.
New Collapsible Hosting Cage Put
in Use by Bureau of Mines,

A hosting cage, designed for use in
mine rescue work, has been invented by
George S. Rice, chief mining engineer of
the United States bureau of mines. The
cage is the result of difficulties encoun-
tered by the bureaus rescuers in mine
disasters, where the regular hosting
equipment has been so damaged or dis
arranged that it could not be used.
The new cage, which Mr.. Rice has de-
veloped, is collapsibie, and IT is the opin-
that It will greatly facilitate mine rescue
work. one cage already has been install
ed nm one of the bureaus rescue cars, and
II was used to great advantage at the
recent Banner, Ala, mine disaster. 9th
ar cars are to be similarly equipped.

Supervision of Melon Market.

Particular attention is being paid. at
present, to the sale of watermelons and
cantaloupes, as this is the season for
the marketing of products of that char
acter. Recently the District heads adopt
ed an order prohibiting owners of car
goes and captains and crews of vessels
from selling melons in lots of less than
twenty-five. The object of the regula-
ton was to prevent damaged and speck-
ed melons which have been rejected by
wholesale buyers from falling into the
hands of women and small children.
Reconsideration of this order has
convinced the Commissioners and Col
Haskell that it's effect will not be to
bring about the good results that were
hoped for. and. as consequence, the
authorities have modified 1t that
only the sale of watermelons and can
taloupes that have been rejected on
account of specks. or that are de-
cayed or in any way are unfit for use,
is prohibited.
Accordingly, the practice of retailing
melons from boats will be permitted,
but under vastly improved conditions,
it Is believed.

by horse he had rode down to
water.
Mr.. Thomas was relievingt the men
who had the summer range cattle
in charge and was mounted on q
strange horse. He was leading dog
at the time and it is thought the
dangling of the rope frightened the
horse and caused it to buck. Mr..
Thomas was thrown into the river,
landing on his back. Striking in
the water, broke the force Of the
fall, and after examination it was
found that altho he was severely
bruised in the back and chest the
nature of the injuries were such
that no serious result would prob

Old Smith-Anthracite
to be Opened UP

Manager Roberts has put men to
work on the old Smith Anthracite
mine and is commencing the pre-
liminary work of opening up this
weli-known hard coal producer,
which for the past seven years has
lain dorment, Notwithstanding there
still remains an almost unlimited
quantity of the very best anthracite
coal, that can be mined from the
old workings of the property.
This propcrtyis located four miles
northwest of Crested Butte up Slate
creek on Smith hill, and q large
amount Of coal has been shipped
from it by the c. F. & l. company,
working i: under lease.
The Smith-Anthracite company
intends to do considerable work on
themine this season. The work now
in progress embraces the cleaning
out of the main entry, repairing the
machinery putting pumps in run
ming condition, replacing pipe line,
opening air shafts and other neces-
sary improvements to put the prop
crty in operating order. The work
ings are now in IL distance of con-
siderably over 1000 feet and the
present move i no doubt the start
ing of heavy future development.
1t is indeed encouraging to see all
of our coal mines moving, with the
prospects good for new producers
soon coming into the field. There
seems to be an increasing demand
for the superior product. This sec
ton produces the very highest
grades Of anthracite and bitumenous
Goals and the steam-users and out
side markets are realizing this fact
more and more.
1t is expected that the RioGrande
will Immediately commence repair
ing the railroad branch running up
to the property.

Normal Grounds
For Celebration

The state board of trustees of the
Normal school have given permission
to Gunnison County Stockgrowers
Assn, to use the Normal grounds
for their celebration this year.
The grand stands that had been
erected on Main street have been
moved to the park and the associa-
ton is now busy building Il half-mile
circle race track, and arranging the
grounds foo the twc-days program
this week. As far as the celebration
is concerned it is great improve
ment, as the circular track will al
low the spectators to witness the
races from startto finish and to have
an unobstructed view of all the sports
that transpire.
There seems to be however, u great
diversity of opinion in regard TO. the
using of the grounds for such pur-
poses. The board, it is contended by
many has no right to allow the site
to be used for other than school pur-
poses.
According to the understanding
with the board, the association is to
maintain the park and grand stand
and are to have the use of them only
the two days each year for their cele-
bration. This however is only fem
porary agreement, us the board has
not thepowerto make it a permanent
contract, and should the scheme
prove detriment to the school, it
oan be annulled.
The main argument in, favor of
the move is that it will at once af-
ford to the Normal School q good
athletic park and the use of the
grand stands during tic seasons for
field meets and outdoor sports,
which will he of no additional ex-
pensc to the school.
The celebration this year prom
ses to be unusally good and an eX-
tensive program is arranged, COLI
sisting of horse races, quadrilles on
horse back, foot races, buclsing con-
tests, novlety races, relay races, po-
tato races, display of stock, baby
show, fish fry and many other in
teresting events, ending with Il grand
hall in the evening.
