ARM BURNED.

Last Sunday about 4::3O p. m.
w. B. Perkins, machinist, was
badly burned on the arm and
hand at the Santa Fe round house,
and while the wounds are not
serious. it will be several weeks
before he will have full use of
the injured members.
The accident happened while
Perkins and his helper, w. ].
Geary, were putting the "shims"
under the locomotive tires, the
former holding a torch in one
hand, and in some unaccountable
manner a quantity of gasoline
dropped on his sleeve, the torch
igniting it, and quicker than a
flash Perkins clothes were envel-
oped in flames.
Night watchman. j. O. Barger,
appeared on the scene, and to-
gether with Geary. tore the
burning garments from the vic
tim and sent in a hurry call for
a physician. who bandaged the
wounds and sent him to the La
Junta hospital.

"oBSERVER"
Gives Out His Impressions of
This Section.

Editor Holly Chieftan:
When an observant man, whose
avocation requires his continuous
passage from one locality to an
other, states as one did in this
Office very recently that he finds
all along his route extending
many scores of miles both west,
north and south of Holly, the
most favorable conditions pre-
vailing, then it is time for the
residents to sit up and listen.
Not only listen but stop the
cry of hard times" that avail
nothing.
The above peripatetic observer
says that it seemed to him that
the rich, fertile soil all down the
Arkansas valley from Pueblo to
this point was not only yawning,
but silently shrieking for oppor-
tunity of production.
Each town passed through was
in such excellent financial shape
that he wished he. could have re-
manned longer in each.
All of which teaches that op-
portunity is vast and is all about
US. That the door of prosperity
is plainly marked "Push!" Your
financial success is all up to you,
farmer reader!

On Tuesday last u. S. Postal

gate the feasibility of daily

what he saw several years ago,
when he was first assigned to
this district by Uncle Sam, and
became enthused over the coun-
try's rapid development.
Upon the party's return on
Wednesday night, the Inspector
declared that the straight route
to Stonington and Wentworth
was just as much entitled to q
daily mail service from Holly as
at any other points in the West,
and stated to q Chieftain report

to make this recommendation to

INCREASED ACTIVITIES
IN AMERICA
DURING WINTER
Says Henry Clews, Noted New
York Financier.


According to Henry Clews,
whose word is looked upon with
much value among the Eastern
magnates, there will be increas-
ed activity in business circles,
with not a disturbing factor in
sight, during the winter. He
says:
lowing to the numerous cross currents
in trade it is almost impossible to pre-
dict what the ultimate effect of the war
will be on this country. The world at
large cannot benefit from wholesale de.
struction. Nevertheless, the United
States, unhampered by arrangements and
interruptions falling upon other nations,
will be free to continue the natural de-
velopment of its resources and to aid re-
construction abroad, which will inevitably
make large demands upon American man.
ufacturers.
Undoubtedly the early future of this
country promises period of prosperity
resulting from renewed internal develop
ment as we'll as from LARGER share in the
worlds trade. AS an offset, however,
we must take into consideration that
Europe's buying power will be temporar.
lily impaired, that the cost of production in
Europe will be placed at the lowest limit
and that we shall not secure these foreign
markets without struggle in which we
may be temporarily handicapped by in.
Aation and high prices in the United
States resulting from present abnormal
conditions and the great expansion of
credit. All indications point to increas-
ed domestic activity during the winter
months.
"Our harvest as a whole is the largest
and best on record. This means contin-
ued prosperity on large scale in the az.
ricultural districts. The wheat crop is
estimated at l,OO2. OPS, 900 bushels, o
1000, 900 bushels above the record crop
Of 1912. Corn is figured ct 3,026, ,0O0, 900
bushels, or only 90, ,0OO, 900 bushels below
the record. Oats are expected to reach
1,5l7 ,000, 900 bushels, or 89I, ,OO0, 900
above last year. These three crops show
an increase of about 20 per cent over the
average of the last four years upon an
expansion for the year of about per
cent in acreage. Prices are lower, but
the farmers are sure of satisfactory rer
suits, and the masses will secure cheaper
foods, while the railroads must benefit un.
usually in the carrying of crops and in the
stimulus to general business they afford.
This big harvest is the best thing that has
happened to the railroads in a long period,
and may be of more value to them than
the small concessions granted by the in.
terstate commerce commission.
THE activity of the steel trade, the
largest industry in the country, and the
prospects Of its continuance for months to
come are already matters of common
knowledge. The railroad situation con-
tinues to improve. Traffic is growing.
Decreases in earnings are becoming less
and less conspicuous. Important econo-
mics have been put into effect and num-
Der of roads are already feeling the bene-
fit of advanced rates."

Inspector E. A. Abney, who
started early on Wednesday via
auto and he also has the warmest
words of commendation for this
proposed route.
Your town, by reason of it's
location to the northern country,
should have a mail route at least
to Towner, as the present mail
facilities are ont Of date and con-
sumo three times as much time
as they should in a country as
prosperous as this. Even a tri-
weekly service would be far
ahead of the present one, which
takes a letter thirty-six hours to
travel a distance of forty miles in
q roundabout way, reaching the
Missouri Pacific railway by way
of Pueblo. \

calamity. she is able to present to the
world this greatest OF all the expositions.
And the best Of 1t is, this has been ac-
complished without aid from outside the

ment money either being sought for or
rendered, and the promoters Of this vast
enterprise claim it will be, and now is, en-
tirely self-supporting, and may even pay
interest on the money invested.
Many eastern people are coming, but
wish there might be more, for it is too
bad for any person who can do SO to miss
this exposition. l sometimes wonder il
the people back home realize just what
privilege is before them. Why, just to
visit California at this season OF the year,
is an education in itself, and to have the
added attraction Of the best OF this and
many foreign nations displayed at this

almost, not to avail oneself Of the
