MORE HOGS Is LIVE STOCK NEED

Fort Collins, Jan. i.-"Colorad&
must raise more hogs. This is neces-
sary not only for the welfare of the
live stock industry of the state in the
pork division, but it is necessary for
the welfare of the live stock market
at Denver" This was the statement
made by Prof. George E. Morton, head
of the department of animal husband
ry at the agricultural college, before
the farmers attending the seventh an
nual session of the Colorado Farmers
congress here this morning.
Colorado at present is producing only
so per cent of the hogs that are going
into the market at Denver. Professor
Morton declared that the idea that hog
raising is essentially an industry ADAPT
ed to the corn belt is a fallacy. He
looks for the development of the hog
raising industry in Colorado to come
throught thea boys' sand girls clubs
which are now being fostered and en-
couraged by the extension department
at the college in cooperation with the
government. !~ 'nittl nii

WILSON MAY APPOINT
TAFT AS SUPREME JUDGE

Washington, Jan. 5.-Former Prssi-
dent Taft was frequently mentioned by
both Republicans and Democrats today
as possible selection of President Will
son for the supreme court to fill the
Lamar. While president, Taft promoted
Justice White to be chief justice and
appointed Justices Lamar and Lurton,
all Democrats. The only other name
mentioned today was that of Secretary
of the Interior Lane. Many believe he
will be named. He comes from Cali
fornia, however, which state already
has one member the court, Justice

LOOKING FOR BIGGER GAME

Representative Griffin of New York
relates an encounter with two of bis
colleagues in the lobby of a Washing
ton hotel not long ago.
"At the time of my arrival" COM
menced the representative, "they had
entered into an animated discussion as
to whether a man could eat a quail
each day for twenty-five consecutive
DAYS. One declared the feat to be I'M
possible; the other maintained it diff
cult, but entirely possible.
"The two, having nothing better to
do, started out to find a man who
would give them practical demonstra'
tion Of the matter. They walked down
few blocks and finally met an inIi.
vidual to whom the subject might be
broaehed. He was a ragged, hungry
tramp, standing disconsolately on the
corner and keeping wary eye on the
crossing officer.
"Will you, to settle this thing" tho
weary one was asked, undertake to
eat a quail every day for month";
"'The tramp's eyes frightened per-
ceptibly, an anticipatory smile broad
ened his mouth, while his tongue began
unconsciously to moisten his lips.

One of the most important merchan.
tile changes to take place in Glen
wood early in the year was the trans
fer of the Glenwood Pharmacy by l..
II. Taft to E. J. Howard and Carlton
l.. Hubbard who will in the future
conduct the business under the firm
name of Howard & Hubbard.
This is one of the best business pro-
perties in Glenwood, located on the
most desirable corner in the city and
the establishment has always enjoyed
an excellent trade which the new firm
believe can be increased by careful
attention to business.
The young men comprising the new
firm are both popular in Glenwood aud
surrounding country and are taking
over this well established business with
determination to devote their best
energies toward supplying the needs
of their customers and the public gen.
orally.
Mr.. Howard who will have direct
managerial charge Of the new business
came to Glenwood about three years
ago and entered the employ Of c. d.
Barnes as prescription clerk and gefe'
raj salesman. Last spring he began his
employment with Mr.. Taft in similar
capacity and by his pleasing aud
courteous manner and careful attention
to business has added much to the
popularity of the establishment in
which he now becomes part owner.
Mr.. Hubbard's popularity is attested
by the splendid vote given him for
county clerk and recorder at the last
county election. He will continue in
his official position until the end of his
present term and then expects to de-
vote his attention to his merchantile
interests.
Mr.. Taft bought this property II
Fred c. Ewing four years ago and has
enjoyed a splendid trade from the firss
He is not yet decided as to his future
plans but will probably seek new
location on the coast.

SPLENDID LITTLE RANCH

Here is something just right in the
way Of small farm, very close to Silt.
OF the 81 acres one-half is in cultiva-
tion, 10 acres in alfalfa, six or sevsh
acres of spud or grain land and 1000
fruit trees. Good 5-room house, barn,
milk house and cistern, with water
piped into the house; good water right;
2 horses, wagon, sleigh, plow, harrow
and 3 number Of small implements. This
property cost the owner nearly $4,000,
but he is not farmer and has asked
me to sell it for $500, and it is q
great bargain at that. $1,000 can stand
in a mortgage If buyer desires.

GRATEFUL TO THEIR FRIENDS

That prisoners are sometimes mighty
human folks and that they appreciate
kindness as well as do other people was
emphasized during the recent holiday
season when 1. E. Pratt and his little
grandson, Frank Pratt sought to in
ject little sunshine into the convict
road camp up the river, Mr.. Pratt ar
ranging for little stocking filled with
candy to be placed Christmas morning
at the place Of each Of the 54 men
who are working for Garfield county
on the public roads. .
AS the men entered the mess tent
and found the bag of candy by the side
of each plate their eyes were lighted
and a smile overspread otherwise sober
faces, nut when they learned that little
Frank Pratt had impersonated Old
Santa Claus they held a council, passed
a vote of thanks and sent splendid
letter of appreciation to Frank and an
other to his grand-dad, and the Post
will allow the letters to speak for
themselves as they voice the sentiment
Of the men, who, while now wrestling
with the scamy side of life, prove tina.
they were once boys and know some
thing of the real heart thrills of the
Christmas season. Here are the two
letters:
Master Frank Pratt,
Glenwood Springs, Colo.
Dear Frank
About fifty mighty blue fellows
rolled out Of bed yesterday morning ex-
pecting, of course, to have been entire
ly forsaken by Santa Claus, only to
find upon assembling at the breakfast
table that the good old fellow had in
fact visited our camp, leaving evidence
of it beside each of our plates. The
little card attached to each filled stock
ing explained through whose influence
this was caused, though we could have
guessed the good little angel. The
days proper spirit was thus created
and was given material later to COIL
tinue it.
Collectively and Individually we
thank you, Frank, and wish you ill the
best to be had all the long life ahead
of you. We would all like to be listed
on your friendship book and in the
event of being called upon to act the
part, do you think a single one would
be found wanting2 The response would
be unanimous.
Again we thank you and ask you to
accept the affection of each man Of

Dear Mr.. Pratt

Dear Mr.. Pratt
To adequately express our gratitude
for the pleasant Christmas enjoyed by
us all and made possible through your
thoughtful generosity, would require an
artist and We have none in camp. If
you could have glanced into the assem-
bly, tent at almost any minute yester-
day and viewed the eare-free, merry
countenances, you would have been
fully repaid. An otherwise unhappy,
depressing day was changed into one
hilarious, happy holiday, to be always
remembered, with those who caused it,
by us all. -a 81
1t may be entirely foreign to the
proprieties and tactless to say it, yet
it occurs to us that it is acts such as
this which will tend to direct to .he
straight and narrow and to life's
possibilities minds overburdened with
self-pity and the imaginary heavy cross
to be carried for all future time be-
cause of our immediate surroundings.
We have forgotten for day, thereby
demonstrating that perpetual forgetful-
ness is as possible as it is desirable.
May that peace which passeth all un-
derstanding surround and enfold the
house of Pratt and all in it is the earn
est and cordial wish of every man Of
Garfield County Road Camp.

urements as well as the elements Of
mechanical drawing.

Ten O'Clock found the three gentle
men-so classified by Hobbs-out Of
the Schweizerhof and arranging for
accommodations at the Regina Hotel
Jungfraublick.
He was somewhat puzzled by the
strange submissiveness of his compan-
ions. Deep down in his mind lurked
the disquieting suspicion that they
were conniving to get the better of the
lovely temptress by some sly and Sc
cret bit of strategy. What had be-
come of their anxiety, their eagerness
to drag him off to Graustark by the
first train?
Enlightenment came Unexpectedly
and with shock to his composure.
Two people emerged from the door
and. passing by without so much as
glance in his direction, made their
way to the mounting block. Robins
heart went down to his boots. Bede-
Liza, a graceful figure in smart riding !
habit, was laughing blithely over a |
soft spoken remark that her compan-
ion had made as they were crossing
the porch. And that companion was
no other than the tall. good looking
fellow who had met her at Cherbourg!
The prince, stunned and incredulous,
watched them mount their horses and
canter away. followed by groom who
seemed to have sprung up from no
where.
