MEETING OF SAN
JUAN PIONEERS
Alamosa Empire.

Alamosa Empire.
The Twenty first annual meeting
of the San Juan Pioneers association
closed last Friday evening in Alamosa
and it was determined to hold the next
meeting in Del Norte.
Dan Newcomb, during the sessions,
made a most happy suggestion which
will no doubt be accepted by the San
Juan basin division of the pioneers,
that there be two places of meeting
each year, that the members of the as
sociation on each side of the range
may find it less difficult to attend
meetings.
Several advices were received by
the secretary of the association at the
meeting here that members were
unable to make the long journey from
the San Juan. Had the meeting been
on the other side, similar advices
would have gone from here.
Al the suggestion of Mrs. f. T.
Elliott, Of Del Norte, each county
vice president will be requested to
organize an auxiliary association
which may hold meeting just prior
to each annual meeting of the asso-
citation. This cannot fail to induce a
larger attendance at annual meet
ings.
After twenty years the Pioneers as.
sociation is just beginning to realize
the desirability if not necessity, OF
perpetrating the ties of friendship
and fraternity formed during the
earliest days Of the settlement Of tn

Tacoma, Wash, Oct. 81, 1915
Dear Herald:
Am wondering if the enclosed clip
ping refers to the Durango Fred
Starr:
SEATTLE, Oct. 2O-Fred Starr,
who pleaded guilty to robbing the
Everett interurban train and North
Queen Anne street car several weeks
ago, today is waiting the arrival OF
u guard to take him to the state
penitentlary where he must serve an
indeterminate term of 20 to 60 years.
Judge Mitchell Gillian imposed SEN
tence of 10 to 80 years upon Starr for
each offense and ordered that the
sentence run cumulatively. After
Starr has served his minimum SEN
tence in the Washington prison he is
still liable TO be returned to Cal
ifornia to finish eight years of an
uneXpired l2-year sentence. Starr
broke his parole from the California
prison. 1t is possible also that the
state may bring action against Starr
On the habitual criminal act. in which
event he would be liable to life i'm
prisonment in Washington.

days ago, playful kitten wandered

No, that's neither lie nor a joke,
but the solid truth.

about gasoline being % cents a gal

It's only eleven and one-half cents

Although the allies are planning

The invasion is characterized as
being worse than tine steam roller that

A sem-official description of the
Serbian resistance is:
The Serbians are fighting madly,
women and children are participating.
Shipping and bush whacking are in
ccssant.
The Bulgarians captured Prot after
long and sanguinary fighting.
The Austro-Germans have captured
Batocina. Rurnik, Cumackj, Cumack
and Slackovina.
1t is reported that German muni-
tions are already on the way to Tur-
key, going overland across the north
ern part of Serbia to the nearest
bulgarian railway and thence to Con

1t is estimated that a million fresr
Turkish troops will take the field a.

A NEW HOME INDUSTRY.
+++a

The United States government has
recently established an Essential OH
Station at Orlando, Fla, under the
direction OF the Department of Agri-
culture. Its purpose is research
work regarding those trees, plants
and shrubs OF foreign nativity adap-
table to Florida's soil and climate;
those now native to that state which
are capable of yielding certain es-
sential oils that can be used in the
arts and industries; and also those
which produce citrus by-products
such as citric acids. Already the sue
cess of this new work seems assured.
Nearly $6,oGGt0o9 worth Of essential
oils and gums are imported into this
country annually. Professor Hood,
who IS in charge Of the station IN
Florida, believes that a large pro-
portion OF them. can be produced and
manufactured in that state. The.
present war difficulties have mater
tally 1essened the supply Of these pro-
ducts from Europe, and several In
dustries are suffering from this con-
dftion
Among the oils which are now be
ing successfully produced at the sta
ton are oil of rose Seranium. which
is usually imported from A1gfers;;
lemon grass. from which lemon ex-
tract is made, imported from India;
citronella, OF which million pounds:
are imported annually from India and
