tenn they could never have secured
a place on the ticket for their candi-
date. but fortunately last year there
were no primary conventions in Col
orado Under a new law all nomina-
tons were made by petition, and no
other petition filed with the secretary
of state carried as many signatures
as that for the nomination of Mrs.
Robinson. Her election followed by
a vote in which party lines were dis
regarded.
Mrs. Robinson comes from New
England, and is a graduate of Wei

Ewing Robinson. an attorney OF Den

girls; she has retained her active in

and her home in Denver is looked up
on as something of cultural center.
She has a daughter now attending
a preparatory school. Mrs. Robin

campaign to a few public statements,
in which she epitomized her views,
incidentally declaring concerted
motherhood to be a prime need in
legislation.

The Georgia court of appeals has
taken a whack at the historic old
hollow stump in the clearing. The
old custom of carrying your empty
jug to the stump, leaving coin on
top of it and coming back the next
day to find it full of mountain dew
will have to be abandoned. The court
rules that it is sufficient evidence of
the violation of the liquor law to
show that a flask of whiskey is laid
down by one person and that soon
afterwards another person comes
along and takes the whiskey and puts
the coin in its place.

Great Coal Reserves.

When the total production of coal
in the United States, great as it is, is
compared with the known tonnage in
the ground it sinks into relative insig-
nifcance Thus, four recently de-
scribed coal fields in Colorado are esti-
mated by the United States Geological
Survey to contain more than IL billion
short tons of coal, or three-fourths of
the total amount of coal that has been
mined and lost through mining process
SEES in the United States since the be-
ginning of the industry. These are
known as the coal fields of the Grand
Mesa and the West Elk Mountains,
Colorado, and are discussed by Willis
T. Lee in Bulletin $40, just issued by
the United States Geological Survey.
These fields constitute parts of the
Uinta coal region, in the Rocky Noun
tain province, and lie partly in west
central Colorado and partly in eastern
Utah. The part of the Uinta region
described in the bulletin is divided into
four more or less distinct fields, called
Grand Mesa. Floresta, Mount Carbon
and Crested Butte.
The Investigations described in the
bulletin extended over period of three
years and were made for the purpose
of ascertaining the geological relations
of the coal-bearing rocks to other for,
nation, of classifying the land by
legal supervisors as coal land anC
non-coal land, and of determining the
value of the coal land by ascertaininl
the thickness of the coal beds. tn,
character and quality of the coal, it,
accessibility with reference to topo
graphic features, and its location will
reference to lines of transportation.
Because of the uncertainty in man,
places as to the number of coal bed
and the still greater uncertainty as t.
their variations in thickness, no clos
estimate can be made Of the auantit,
of coal in the fields. However, a com
putation based on moderate estimate
of thickness gives u, IT'S, pa, 900 shor
tons as the amount of recoverable Goa
in the Grand Mesa and West Ell
: Mountain fields.

According to entomoligists the present
cold snap. coming after so much mild
weather, for the time of year, will serve
the farmers a purpose in addition to
prolonging the maple sugar season. 1t
will kill great many of the tent cater
pillars which threatened to be as great
a nuisance as last season when in many
places, early in the year, roadside trees
were made unsightly with ugly masses
of the crawling worms" and were
stripped of their foliage.
The eggs of the moths, into which the
caterpillars turn, were deposited last
fall on twigs. With the first warm
weather this spring many of the eggs
Matched out but as the cold weather re-
tards the development of tender young
foliage which the tiny caterpillars must
have to subsist thousands of them have
died. Some idea of the extent to which
the pest would have thrived had not the
weather man found an opportunity to
preserve the balance of nature" may
be gained from the fact that an ento.
mologist counted 81 egg masses, each
containing hundreds of embroys, on {
single wild cherry tree along a RUTLAND
roadside.

Raising Chicks by Hundreds.

The farm poultry keeper who raises
500 or more chicks year finds brooder
house an almost indispensable adjunct
1t makes it possible to take care of the
chicks with the least labor, gives them
an abundance of air and plenty of room
for exercise in stormy weather when
they would be too closely confined in
small breeders.
The brooder house in use in Mis-
souri, poultry experiment station and
recommended by Director Qusenberry
to anyone who raises large numbers of
chickens Matched by incubator is 40 feet
long by ii feet wide on a concrete
foundation with rat-proof wood floor,
says Farm and Home.
A matched board partition through
the center provides two apartments,
each having its own heater in center of
room. If the heater gets too warm for
the chicks nearest to it they move back
to a comfortable temperature, which
they cannot do if kept in a small room.
Each apartment will house 1000 chickens
and should not be used for less than 500
as their own heat helps to regulate the
temperature of the room, and the cost
of building and running heating plant is
too large for small number
The baby chicks are placed in one
apartment and their yard is fenced
with Pinch wire netting so that they
cannot get far from their foster
mother. When they become large
enough to hustle around a little they
are placed in the other apartment anc
allowed to roam at will, but their water
supply and dry mash hopper are placed
near the entrance so that they do moi
get very far away There is plenty OF
shade in the immediate vicinity so thai
they do not have to stay in the house tC
get out of the sun.
The building complete with gooC
coat of paint cost 1925 and the sell
regulating oil heaters about $50 each
All window openings are covered with
fine wire netting TO keep out birds anC
rodents.

Registration of tuberculosis
Cases Inadequate.

Registration and reporting of living
cases of tuberculosis, in a manner SIM
liar to the reporting of other infectious
diseases, is now required by state law
or regulation of boards of health in 80
states and territories out of SO. Five
years ago only IA states had legislation
on this subject. The increase is looked
upon as a sign of marked progress in
the anti-tuberculosis movement by The
National Association for the Study and
Prevention of tuberculosis, which issues
bulletin on this subject today
Based on figures obtained from cases
of tuberculosis reported in Cleveland,
New York, and other cities where
thorough registration is employed, it is
estimated that for every death from
consumption in the United States, of
which there are on an average 200, 900
annually, there are constantly more than
five living cases, making at least l.
600, 900 in ALL Of this million cases,
it is estimated that the health author
/
| 100, 900 to 1900 or one in every eight
or ten, and that for the great majority
of cases recorded, no hospital, home, OF
dispensary care is provided. Prac-
tically nothing can be done to contro
the spread of tuberculosis in the unre'
ported cases.
OF the 33 states where reporting OF
cases is required, adequate or reason
ably complete records are kept in no
more than eight. Twenty states anC
territories have no laws or regulations
requiring the reporting of tuberculosis
and in most of these states consumption
is not classified officially by the healtl
authorities as a communicable, infec
tious disease. There states are, Ari
zona,, Alaska, Arkansas, Delaware
Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Illinois, Iowa
: Kentucky, Missouri, Montana, Nevada
New Mexico, North Carolina, Nortl
, Dakota, Ohio, Philippine Islands, Sout
Dakota and Wyoming. Special law
requiring reporting and registration o
tuberculosis have been passed in Colo
RADIO, Connecticut, District of Columbia
: Kansas, Maine, Maryland, Michigan
Mississippi, New Hampshire, New Jer
sey, New York, Rhode Island and Ver
l mont In twenty other states. tuber
7 culosis is included in the lists of infeC
7 tious diseases that must be reported b
t physicians.
: In concluding its bulletin, the Natior
7 al association says: Reporting @
= living cases of tuberculosis to the locs

Begin the campaign of death! Kill
'em, starve em, do anything to 'em to
get rid of 'em. 1t is getting near to
the day when the old time household
pest will be back again; when the
fly will begin to do its deadly work If
it is permitted. The American people
have been aroused to the truth that
the fly is menace and claims a heavy
death roll during the summer months,
more especially sending up the rate
of infant mortality. Children are
worth keeping alive; one way to keep
them alive is to ward off disease, and
one way to ward off disease is to elimi-
nate the fly.
Flies breed in unclean places; the
moral of which truth is, eliminate the
unclean breeding places. Don't wait
until you have to swat the fly; make
sure that there won't be any flies tC
swat. Keep the premises clean; don
permit filth to accumulate. Flies are a
true indication of filth somewhere il
the neighborhood. Wipe those places
out and save the lives of the children
