DAIRY AS FOUNDATION
One Never-FaiIing Money-Making

Dairy is the one never.failing Money
making resource in dry land farming
Tor the family with little capital. The
native wild grass is a dependable dairy
feed Kafr and sorghum, when given
good treatment, never fail to produce
feed crops. These sure feed crops
make good silage and for ten dollars
outlay and his labor the dry land farm
er can built pit silo. Buyers OF
cream pay cash at the time OF each
purchase. The dry land farmer with
herd OF good dairy cows receives a
cash income every week through the
Year. whether the season is wet or dry.
The new settler In dry land coun.
try who takes a herd OF milking cows
with him can go out the first morning
he is In his new home and milk the
cows while his wife is getting break.
last. He can separate the cream and
begin a steady cash income with the
first day In his new home. The regu-
lar weekly return from the sale of
cream enables the new settler to pay
cash for his household supplies and he
need not have store bills. The skim
milk fed to hens and pigs adds to the
profits.
The countless losses and failures In
dry land farming in the Southwest
have come from attempts to make a
living from exclusive grain iarming
and no stock. A careful dry land
farmer in eastern Colorado raised six
profitable crops OF grain In IS years.
The 1914 grain crop is heavy through
out the Panhandle, The last generally
good grain crop In that district was
In 1908. The man who depends entire
" upon raising grain finds the wait
between crops too long II is particu.
larly hard when the new settler comes
at the beginning OF a period OF dry
years. Where the main income is fur.
nlshed by the dairy cows, the dry land
farmer lives comfortably every year
lie sows grain only In those seasons
when there is ample moisture and the
money that the grain brings is a sur
plus that can be used for investment

fcient capital and is not Obliged to
have weekly or monthly income, beef
cattle. horses and mules are money
makers. Beef cattle can be finished
to top the market on silage made from
kafir or sorghum fed with kaflr or
milo grain and cottonseed meal The
gains are more rapid than the usual
gains made In the corn belt
When you think OF dry land farm
ing think OF dairying. When you move
to dry land farm take ten to twenty
good dairy cows with you. Make your
main crops feed crops for the dairy
cows. Store the surplus in cheap pit
silos. Take good care OF the cows and
OF the cream. You will prosper.

Must Have HeaIthfuI sleep.

Edison, the inventor. has been
quoted as saying that little sleep is
necessary, and that the time will come
when mankind will not sleep at all,
and therefore not waste a fourth or

to death. At the moment, of course,
Mr.. Edison was breaking into the role
OF the professional humorist. All OF

Wonderful Feat of Telephony.

When an individual or corpora
tion accomplishes a wonderful feat,
the idea naturally arises, how was it
accomplished? The other day the
Bell Telephone System accomplished
the feat of transmitting distinctly the
human voice from coast to coast. Con-
versations were carried on between
President Wilson of the United Sta
tes and President Vail of the COM
pany, President Moore of the Panama
Pacific Exposition and many others
between the Atlantic and Pacific
cities. Perhaps every person read
ing the story of those conversations
will wonder how it was done No bet
ter description nor any better story
of how this remarkable achievement
was accomplished has ever been writ
ten or told than was told by U. n.
Bethel, senior vice-president of the
company, when he reviewed briefly
the history of the telephone system
in the world to those who were gath
cred in the New York office to hear
and enjoy the transcontinental conver-
sations. Among other things, he said
This afternoon we shall formally
open the first trans-continental tele-
phone line, spanning distance of 3,
400 miles. This line forms a highway
of speech between the Atlantic and
Pacific coasts; a telephone network
unequaled in its comprehensivenes
now covers our vast country from
sea to sea, connecting cities, towns,
villages and firms into what is known
as the Bell Telephone system. When
we remember that the telephone itself
was invented no longer ago than 1875,
we can not but marvel at the position
attained by this wonderful instrument

On the witness stand, Earl French
explained that he and Helen Cooke
had come to Gunnison from Denver
They came the latter part of June.
He had known her for about three
months in Denver. He first said she
came here because she wanted to live
with his mother. Later in his testi-
mony he explained that she was in
clined to go with other men and for
that reason he wanted her here with
him. He admitted that he was en-
gagged to marry the girl, and that they
had planned to be married before
Christmas and go to Denver, but dur
ing the latter part of December the
girl became i'll and they delayed their
marriage.
Young French said that he was un-
aware of the girls condition and did
not realize that she was SO sick.
Both he and his mother said that they
did not believe that doctors SER
vices were needed. In fact they con-
tend that Helen refused to have a
doctor come to see her.-News-Cham

DENVER GIRL DIES IN
GUNNISON UNDER CLOUD

A story which rankles with shame
Gunnison this week. 1t is the story
of the death of a young girl, nineteen
years old, of an autopsy and a cor
oners inquest, and a verdict of jury
finding that death resulted from an
unlawful act. Thete is no mother nor
father here to mourn the death of the
girl, but a young man, her fiance and
constant companion since coming to
Gunnison, is here and was called as a
witness in the coroners inquest.
Helen Cooke died in Gunnison,
Tuesday morning at 1875. General
peritonitis was the immediate cause
of DEATH She died in the home of
Howard Johnson in east Gunnison. In
this home she had beenNVisiting since
last June, and in this home she had
constant association with Earl French,
Johnson. So far as is known she has
a brother and step-mother living in
Denver, and sister in Indiana. She
was little known here.
The body was shipped to Denver
Thursday evening.
On Saturday morning, January 16,
Mrs. Johnson consulted DR.. N. j..
Hyatt, and said that the girl had been
complaining. The doctor prescribed
medicine at that time. The doctor
says that on Sunday evening he went
to the Johnson home and found the
girl was in a dying state. He went
to see her again on Monday. In his
evidence before the coroners jury the
doctor said he was cerrain that moth
ing could be done for her, and that
he thought blood poisoning was the
cause of her condition. Mrs johnson

form, and that this had been the i'm

The other witnesses examined at

Mrs. Johnson disclaimed any knowl-

said she knew that the girl had not
been well. At different times she
had obtained medicine for her, and
consulted the doctor. She cared for
her, as she explained, as if she had
been her own daughter, and said that
she was visiting the family. She
knew that the girl and her son were
engaged, but said that she knew very
little about their relations. Mrs. John
