Do You Read Labels?

DomeSt1c Sc1enco teachers and
food authorities are urging the
housewife to carefully read the
labels on all food articles.
The laws Of most States compe1
food manuf aeturers to print the
ingredients Of their products
on the label, and this enables
consumers to dist inguish health
ful foods from those which may be
deleterious.
High-grade baking powders are
made Of pure cream Of tartar,
derived from grapes. Royal BaK.
ing Powder is type Of the highest
grade. It is healthful beyond q
doubt and the safest and best
to use.
The low-srade baking powders
are made from alum, mineral
acid salt, or phosphate Of lime.
Consumers can learn the char.
acter Of the baking powder by
referring to the label, which
must state whether the cont ents
include cream Of tartar, alum or
phosphate.

DIES FROM INJURIES IN
FAILING FROM AUTO

Craig Courier: -.
Little Steve Webb is dead His
earthly suffering was ended yester-
day afternoon when the Master Hand
summoned him. Less than two weeks
ago this little boy. the 4-year old son
of Mr.. and Mrs. Fred Webb of Craig,
was playing around in childish inno-
cence Those bright eyes and his win
ming ways made him the pride Of his
parents and Of the community. A
week ago last Saturday some boys
let several children get on the rear
platform of the one-cylinder auto and
enjoy a ride around town. Little
Steve fell of but didn't seem to be
hurt much then. A few days later,
however, he became much worse.
then he seemed to improve until We'd
nesday morning, when he began to
sink and died that afternoon. The
playful child talk and the patter of
those feet are heard no more and the
young parents are heartbroken over
fhe~l loss Of their only child. The sim
cere sympathy of the entire commu-
nifty is extended to them. A private
funeral will be. held at the house at
2 o'clock Saturday afternoon.

JESSE INQUIRY HORNED
BY A WILD STEER

Last Friday Jesse Mccurry. well
known rider of the range in these
parts, while rounding up young
steers with three other cowboys about
twenty-five miles west of Canon City,
got into close quarters with one vi
cious steer and during the battle
which followed was badly gored in
the leg. No bones were broken but
the flesh was torn from the bone and
the muscles were badly lacerated.
McCurry's companion came to his
rescue but too late to avoid injury.
The men were miles from medical aid
and it was three days before the
wound could be given the attention
of doctor. No serious results are
expected but Jesse is suffering a
great deal of pain at present.

SLIDES BLOCK TRAFFIC
IN THE PANAMA CANAL
Waterway Probably Will Be Closed
Until November /, Accord
ing to Report.

The Panama canal probably will not
be again opened to traffic before NO
vember 1, according to cable advices to
the War Department.
Earth slides from the east bank OF
Gold hill, which began September 20.
have continued steadily. despite enorts
to keep the canal open with dredges.
The blocking Of the channel, the nrst
very serious interruption of traffic since
the opening of the canal more than a
year ago. will result in hundreds OF
vessels being held UP.
War Department officials said today
they could give no definite assurance
that the canal could be opened NO
that, basing an estimate upon the man
ner in which the earth was moving
and tho amount Of earth and rock al.
ready deposited, it was believed that
another month should serve to clear
the channel.
