this afternoon confirms the report
current here yesterday that Fremont
county had been awarded most of the
major prizes in the horticultural sec
tion at the cooirado state fair.
While a detailed list OF the pre-
miums won by Canon City and Fre-
mont county on fruit exhibits is not
yet available, ii is certain that a
great number OF blue ribbons have
been given them.
The Fremont county display was
awarded the first prize for the best
exhibit made by any county in the
state and the first place by any
county in the district. The Fremont
county display was unusually large
and comprehensive and attracted ex.
ceptional attention from visitors by
reason of its excellence. The honors
awarded TO II by the judges were well
deserved and received general en-
dorsement and appreciation. The
premiums given to Canon City people
IN individual exhibits were very nu-
merous.

who was granted a divorce in the
county court last week from Mrs.
Ada Cutting. last night. 1t is STAGED,
eloped to Kansas with Miss Leda
Combs. daughter of Charles Combs
CT this city. Combs declared today
that he does not know to what city
the couple had gone nor what are
their plans.
Cutting and his wife. Mrs. Ada
Cutting, opened a joint millinery
store and optical office. Within a few
weeks he startled the police by no
tifying them that he had been held
up by burglars who had entered his
shop. He declared he had locked
them in, but investigation revealed
no trace OF them.
Shortly afterwards his wife left
town and a few weeks ago he filed
suit for divorce on the grounds Of
desertion. His wife fled a cross
complaint, alleging that he had sent
her out OF the state ostensibly for
her health. but really that he might
devote attention to another woman.
Later Mrs. Cutting withdrew the com
plant and Cutting got his decree.
Miss Leda Combs is only IS yearse
old. She was employed in Cuttings
millinery shop.

WAR is DEPICTING NUMBER
OF HORSES IN U. S.

An effect of the present war in
Europe that is being given little or
no thought is the depicting of the
stock of farm horses. according to
H r. Haden. buyer, who is in Pu-
eblo. The supply of horses is d.
Ininishing rapidly. The prices in this
country are mounting accordingly,
horse dealers here declare
Unless the war stops very soon
the farmer will find it next to i'm
possible to buy. .the proper kind of
work horses" said Haden Blinded
by the high prices paid by the war
ring nations many farmers have sold
their best stock and now they will
soon find themselves unable to re-
plenish their supply.
1T is difficult to find out just what
prices are being paid by the purchas-
ers for European armies, because the
work is being carried on with such
secrecy According to the dealer
quoted the present prices in the
country are said to be from sl25 to
s1S5 a head for the same class of
animals that could be bought from
ss5 to SIPS when the heavy buying
began year ago.
In eleven months ending May 81
the latest date for which official gov
ernment reports have been made, ex-
ports for horses and mules were 3o2,-
l2s head. valued at sixty-seven mil
lion dollars, compared with exports
OF only 26.o7s head in the correspond
ing period in the preceding year The
shipments have continued large dur
ing the last three months.
The supply of good work horses
is being reduced as never before
the dealer said. land when domestic
trade, principally in the southern
states. begins the full effect of the
normous foreign sales will be felt.
Domestic trade in horses has been
smaller in the past year than for a
long time, owing to the low price of
cotton and the discouragement in the
south over the marketing of the crop
The south has been selling instead
of buying. which has made it easier
FOR contractors to get horses for the
foreign governments. A revived de-
mand from the south is expected
sooa.''
There are still some things in
which the horse surpasses the auto
mobile for usefulness and efficiency,
so good many men who thought
themselves astute business men when
they sold Old Dobbin at fat profit
this fall may be scratching their
heads next spring.-Pueblo Chieftain.

WAR UPON PAIN

Pain is a visitor to every
home and usually it comes quite.
unexpectedly. But you are pre-
pared for every emergency if
you keep a small bottle Of Sloan s
Liniment handy. 1t is the great
est pain killer ever discovered.
Simply Laid Oh the skin-no rub
bling requi edit drives the pal
away. It is really wonderful.
Mervin II. Soister, Berkeley,
CAL, writes: "Last Saturday,
after tramping around the Pan
anna Exposition with wet Feet
1 came home with my neck so
stiff that I couldn't turn. I ap-
piled Sloanis Liniment freely,
and went to bed. To my sur
prise, next morning the stiffness
had almost disappeared, four
