DR. Bulette
Through his good practice and
the Springfield Herald DIR. Bulette
is known in Baca county as if he
were an old time residenter, and
his coming is watched for with
anxious interest by those who
are needing the services OF a
specialist along the lines that the
doctor specialize5 on.
AS DR.. Bulette has come to be
known in this county so he has
become known over the entire

Ben C. Spencer
Is a rising young real estate
dealer of Two Buttes who is US
ing the medium of the He raid t,
ask the public for a share of its
business.
Mr.. Spencer was long known
as the attendant at the Butte
creek dam, and from that
branched out into the real estate
business. He is thoroughly post
ed on Baca county affairs and
Baca county lands, can give the
best there is in The county in
land values, and is wholly relia-
ole.
Land in Bacn county has been
at very low ebb, on account of
the general depression in land
values generally, and here par
ticularly on account of the great
amount OF public land that has
been available; but this public
land now gone, the next influx
of settlers will be buyers, and
to those we can heartily CON-
mend Ben C.. Spencer Of Two

No Place For Americans
The following from the Ne "
York World is exactly in line
with the sentiments of the Spring.
field Herald
Under existing conditions,
common sense alone should deter
Americans from visiting Europe
except on important business.
There never Wss better time
for tourists and sight-seekers to
stay at home. No doubt Ambas-
ador Page has already had more
than enough experience to sat-
isfy him with Americans who
have sought to make national
questions of their petty personal
grievances. The safe course, as
he suggests, is to keep away
from England and Europe.

Mr.. u. r. Wise =

A child learns that money has value
long before 1t knows what money is.
When a boy reaches the stage of de-
string things that he knows his par
ents cannot provide for him, his nat
ural instinct is to earn enough money
of his own to get them. He will set
to work in many ways to do this. The
manual training schools help him.
This, then, is the time to begin his
SERIOUS instruction on how to save
money, and If this beneficial under
standing can be drilled into his mind
TO degree that will fully make him
understand its Importance, he will be
helped greatly throughout all his life.
Nothing that boys and girls can learn
at the very outstart exceeds in value
the practice Of thrift. Money is not
nearly 30 hard to get in the United
States as in the countries Of Europe,
nor is thrift understood here as 1t is
there. II the wage workers of the old
world had the money-earning chances
that exist on this side their accumu-
lations would total much more than
they are now, ample as they seem to
be toward furnishing enormous capi.
tai for carrying on the wars in which
their governments are engaged,
