BATTLES ON
THE GRIDIRON
Are Now the Order of the Day
in School Circles
FOOTBALL SEASON OPENS
HERE TOMORROW
When 1t is Expected that Our Boys
VIII Take Better Showing than
at Las Animas

An agency which can induce
students to observe proper habits
of eating, sleeping, abstinence
from tobacco and liquor, and at
the same time keep him up in his
class work. is much to be desired
by everyone who has at least the
educational interests of our youth,
and as educators and other au-
thorities claim that this is accomp-
lished thru the medium of foot
ball training, then it is surely our
duty to give this athletic attraction
our ardent support.
For this reason The Enterprise
will be pleased to give publicity
to all battles on the gridiron in
which our high school boys are
mixed, even tho the result may be
as disastrous as was the game at
Las Animas last Saturday when
our football squad WAS beaten by
a score of 20 to l.
Something like this result was
to be expected, as the Las Ami
mas team had already played three
games this season while this was
the first game that our boys had
taken part in for two years.
Instead of discouraging the
local squad it has got the lads on
their mettle and they promise
different showing in the game on
local field tomorrow afternoon
when they will have as their op-
ponents the La Junta team.
The schedule for the rest of the
season is as follows:
October "a Las Animas at Rocky
Ford.
October 3l-Rocky Ford at La Junta.
November ROCKY Ford at Trini-
dad.
November l4-La Junta at Rocky
Ford.
November 2l-To be filled.
Thanksgiving Day-Rocky Ford VS..
Alumni.

School Notes

Three rented rooms are now in use for
school purposes and yet there are several
over crowded rooms in the district.
Miss Elsie E. Reed entered upon her
duties as teacher Of the first and second
grades in the Goblin Block on Monday.
The first number in the Lyeeum course
will be gwen by Mr.. Arthur Rachel in the
Methodist church on next Tuesday even
ing, Oct 20. Persons who have heard
Mr.. Rachel many times speak in tine high
est terms of his work. and express the
desire to hear him again. He has never
appeared in Rocky Ford. and. we trust.
he will be greeted by large audience on
the evening mentioned. Prof. Paul r.
Voelker of the University of Wisconsin
says one of Mr.. Kachel's selections. 81
have never heard monologue that i'm
pressed me more deeply. 1t was given

The spirit of work in our schools was
never better. and the feeling is general
that the outcome must be highly salts

earnestly requested to support the work
by frequent visits and suggestions.

KILLING FROST
Brings Long Continued Cantaloupe
Season to Close

This section of the Arkansas Valley
was visited by a killing frost on Tues
day night, putting an effectual stop to
the shipping of cantaloupes from Rocky
Ford for this season.
In many ways this has been phe-
nominal season for the cantaloupe in
dustry, but the only record we're brag-
ging about is its longevity, the first
ripe cantaloupes being picked on July
% and the last on Oct. 10. making a
season of 80 days duration.
Altho carlot shipments ceased about
ten days ago express shipments con-
tinued until Tuesday, the later melons
being of excellent quality and bringing
the best prices of the season.
To C. B. Boyd goes the honor of
making the last as well as the first
shipment this season, as he on Monday
picked and shipped out 20 crates one
half the consignment for that day-and
on Tuesday expressed to customers in
New Mexico the last cantaloupes that
were shipped.

INSTRUCTIONS TO VOTERS
Don't Fail to Register Next Tuesday
as This VIII Be Your Only
Chance Until Nov. 2

In response to numerous requests for
information as to registration dates.
ETC., The Enterprise would call the at
tention of its readers to the fact that
Tuesday next is registration day in
Otero county and it would be well for
them to call at the place of registration
in their precinct and see to it that their
names are properly written within the
voters list.
In case you are married woman,
dear reader, and are registered under
your husbands name, as MRS. John
Doe," you are advised to have this
changed to your own given name as
"Mary Doe" to avoid trouble and per-
haps disfranchisement.
The registration places excepting in
Precinct 19) are the same as the polling
places at the recent primary, the four
within the city being as follows: No. 10
at 304 South Main street; No. 20 at the
Rockford hotel, Railroad avenue; No.
81 at Ell Captain hotel; No. % at the
Ebbert Seed Co.'S store.
Don't forget that Tuesday next is
registration day, and should it pass your
only chance to qualify for vote will
be on the day before election.

TO PREVENT HOG CAOLERA
State Veterinarian Gives Hog Owners
Some Good Advice

At well-attended meeting of hog
owners in the Otero County Agricultur-
al clubroom last Saturday afternoon
DIR. w. w. Yard, state veterinarian,
made the following suggestions for
protection against hog cholera:
"Put a sign on your farm gate, DO
Not Enter If You Have Sick Hogs.
Keep all dogs away from your premises
Keep your hogs away from irrigating
bitches and public roads. Isolate your
sick hogs and send for veterinary. Do
not visit your neighbor if he has sick
hogs. Keep all agents away from your
hog pens; they may carry the disease
for miles on their shoes or wagon tires.
Once a week clean and disinfect with II
solution of cresol compound. four ounces
to the gallon of water used as spray,

MOVING PICTURE SHOW
And Democratic Vaudeville Team
Amuses Theatre Crowd

Attracted by the dulcet strains of
the Kid band and the added attraction
of free moving picture show, some
800 people were gathered into the
Grand opera house on Monday evening.
After the show pardonable curios-
ity to see and hear the much-vaunted
leader of Colorado Democracy Tom
Patterson the crowd to re-
main for time, but they speedily had
their curiosity satisfied and long before
the Democratic candidate for governor
had finished his peroration the audience
had dwindled to one-third its former
size and it still contained many who
could never be induced to vote for Tom
Patterson or any of his ilk.
Patterson in times past has been able
to sway his audiences with his oratory,
but he has sadly fallen off and either
because Of the subject matter of his
discourse or that his hearers knew they
were listening to buncomb he received
the frozen mitt from his audience and
the only ripple of applause accorded
and introduced my friend, Roady
Kenehan," that arch hypocrite who af-
ter six years of feeding at the public
crib would like another term.
Tom Patterson's address was in the
main a defense of the United Mine
Workers and its leaders in the coal
strike, with which subject his hearers
were too familiar to place any credence
in his statements that the mine oper-
ators alone were to blame for the acts
of lawlessness and bloodshed last
spring.
His stand upon the liquor question
was in marked contrast with that of
of his Republican opponent. for Tom
frankly stated that in his opinion pro-
hibition could not be enforced even if
the statewide prohibitory amendment
carried, but he said, '1f elected COVER
nor and the state goes dry, so far as in
my power l will enforce the law"
Roady Kenehan's talk was resur-
rection of ancient history, mixed with
Bill Nye story of 1887 vintage, and a
| self-laudatory account of his acts as
watchdog of the state treasury that
proved nauseating to even those of his
audience accustomed to such odorifer'
Gus efrusions.

BUSINESS CHANGES
Western Hardware Company Sells
Out-Another Kansas Man In the
Peoples Home Bank


On Saturday of last week deal was
perfected that brought a change of
ownership of the Western Hardware
company of this city. Messrs. Nichols
months have successfully conducted
the furniture and hardware store on
South Main street formerly owned by
John l.. Bass, on the date mentioned
disposed of the business to John
Spring of Colorado Springs.
The new proprietor is reported to be
an experienced hardware man and will
undoubtedly command good business
when he becomes acquainted. Under
the new management the store was
opened for business on Wednesday,
tho an inventory of the big stock is
still going on.
1t will be matter of interest to
readers of The Enterprise to learn that
A. S. Kitch of Larned, Kan, arrived
on Friday last to make his future home
in Rocky Ford. In company with W..
L. Schafer, the present cashier, Mr..
Kitch has purchased the holdings of
A. H. Bushey in the Peoples Home
bank. and these gentlemen now own
controlling interest in this institution.
Mr.. Kitch's arrival will make no ap-
parent change in the management of
the bank, as Messrs. Bushey and c. C..
| Coffman will retain their official posi-

Reporting upon the departure of
Messrs Kitch and Schafer the Larned
Tiller and Toiler had the following to
say:
"Pawnee county will lose two Of its
foremost citizens and Rocky Ford Colo. +,
will be the gamer through the purchase
by W. L. Shafer and A. S. Kitoh of Larn-
ed of the Peoples Home bank Of Rocky
Ford. There are no two men in Pawnee
county whose departure would cause
more general and genuine regret. Both
are thoroughly equipped business men,
with long record Of success behind them
"Mr. Schafer conducted bank at Lon
don Mills, ILL.,. for many years. He came
to Kansas to take charge OF the Rozel
State bank, and conducted it for about
ten years. making remarkable success
of the institution. The bank, during his
administration. built up a surplus equal
to its capital and paid excellent dividends.
"Mr. Kiteh was reared in Pawnee
county. his home being at the Kitch ranch
in the northwest part of the county. and
has been in the cattle business for fifteen
years. He has had some expsrisnee in
the banking business. too. having had
charge Of bank for something like year
and he has been an active director in f.
nancial institutions for many years. He
has made his home in Larned for about
ten years.
Both of f'these men have been success
ful in this community and they stand very
nigh both socially and financially. They
are the sort of men who stand out in
every community as representative men
| in whom the community as a whole
has complete confidence. and the Tilier
and Toiler j,ins in condolences to Pawnee
county and congratulations to Rocky

One of the Boston daily news
papers reports that the Baptist
and Methodist Churches of
Granville, Mass, are working
out a plan of federation. The
general proposition is that the
two churches unite for all pur-
poses of work and worship under
one pastor, retaining their sepa-
rate Identities as organizations,
electing their necessary officials,
and retaining control of their
property. Allowance is made
for membership in the fedora
ed Church of other than Metho-
dists and Baptists, new members
making their own choice as to
the mode of baptism. Elk.
And thus the good work of
unity and fraternity grows.
Where sectarian jealousy and
envy comes in at the door chris
tlanity and brotherly love goes
out the window.

Try It
1t Pays
Remedy for Cold in Heau.


An old remedy for a cold, in the
head particularly, and an all over
cold in general, is that Of drinking
much water. Drink at least two quarts
of water daily. Drink it slowly, and
see that the glasses are at least a
half hour apart. Water should not be
taken with the meals. 1t should be
taken half an hour after or before.
A glass Of water upon rising should
be an inyariable rule. This clears
the stomach of any mucus that has col
lected overnight. Hot water the first
thing in the morning is better than
cold. Another glass of water (colG,
but never iced water) should be taken
just before retiring, Iced drinks are
always a shock to the stomach.
