broken but laying well and apparent
ly desirable for grazing and dry
farming purposes. He Their returned
with the girls to the Pueblo land Of
hce, where a filing was made.
The girls returned to their home in
Nebraska. In due time they came
back to occupy the land. They testified
that when they went to make their
home on the land they found that the
tract upon which they had made their
filing was not the land they had been
shown. Their filing was on a part of
Section 20, Township 26, range SO
west. They testified that Tracy told
them the land ne showed them was in
this section, but that they found upon
examination the section was located
about three miles from the land they
were shown. The land actually filed
on was rough and billy and of wholly
different character from the land the
girls testified they had been shown.
Both Tracy and his wife, who ac-
companied the party on the locating
trip, testified that the land which was
shown to the girls was the same as
that on which the filing was made. The
jury was not much impressed with
this testimony, however, for Tracy
was found guilty on both counts after
only twenty minutes deliberation.
The case was prosecuted by Charles
B. Hughes of Pueblo, recently ap-
pointed district attorney, and A. b.
Wallis Of La Junta, assistant district
attorney. 1t was perhaps the most
successful prosecution of this kind
that has been conducted in the state.
The members of the state board of
immigration, who have number of
such cases under surveillance, feel that
the result obtained in this case will
go far toward putting an end to the
fraudulent practices of land locators,
which have done grave injury to the
state for many years.

some Tcparies and some Navies. A
part Of the increased acreage is ac-
counted for by special seed contracts
with eastern firms. These, of course,
do not reach the general market, as
they are . ,own ana old under special
contracts.
Bean prices range from "A to 7
cents at local points. Buyers in some
localities have attempted to purchase
as low as cents. The market, how
ever, is high enough to justify better
prices unless the quality of beans is
poor or unless the beans offered are
very poorly cleaned. Bright, good
quality, well cleaned beans should be
worth the higher prices indicated.
There is a growing demand for the
so-called Mexican bean. This bean is
known in the east as the Mexican Pin
to, and Colorado Pinto. A better under
standing Of the quality of this bean,
and the association Of the name with
the bean, would result in material
benefits to the Colorado bean indus

FRAUD CONVICTION


In connection with the campaign
being conducted by the Colorado
board Of immigration to protect
homesteaders from fraud and mis-
representation on the part Of unre-
liable land agents and land locators.
an important conviction has just been
obtained in the district court at La
Junta; the defendant being a land To-
Gator who was charged with obtain
ing money under false prctenses for
the location Of two young girls on a
piece of almost worthless land in
Otero county, southwest Of Rocky
Ford.
The man convicted is J. A.Tracy Of
Fort Morgan, and the girls who charg-
ed him with defrauding them are Min
ME A. and Title A. Thicde. sisters. of
North Platte, Nebraska Tracy was
charged with two counts with obtain
ing money under false pretcnse; one
count being based upon the testimony
Of each Of the girls. He was convicted
on both counts.
The testimony showed that Tracy
inserted advertisements in eastern
papers, stating that he had found a
tract of 800 acres Of good land over
looked by the locators, which he could
secure for parties applying to him
under payment Of $500. Persons
answering the advertisement would
usually, after a short correspondence,
meet him at Fort Morgan. Usually.
according to the testimony, he would
tell that the particular tract near
Fort Morgan, about which he had
written them, was not desirable, but
that he could furnish them a desirable
tract in some other locality, usually
far to the south of Fort Morgan.
The Thicde girls met him at Fort
Morgan after considerable correspon-
denee with him. He told them that
he could locate them on fine tract
of land in the southern part of the
country. He took them by automobile
to Denver and thence by way Of Pu-
eblo to Rocky Ford About fifteen
miles southwest of Rocky Ford he
showed them a nice tract of land, un-

EASTER LATE THIS YEAR.
Great Feast Day Falls Oh April %
Present Season.

This present year of 1916 con-
ness to the student of calendar con-
ditions, not the least Of these being
in connection with the movable
feast of Easter Sunday. Ash We'd
nesday and Easter Sunday were es-
tablished by the council of Nice, A.
d., 1925, the former always to occur
46 advance days of Easter Sunday
and the latter fixed by solar and lu-
mar calculations. Easter Day shall
occur, according to the Nicene laws,
annually on the first Sunday on or
after the first full moon on or after
the vernal equinox, which is always
March 81.
From this it will be seen that the
earliest date on which Easter may
fall is March 81 and the latest date
is April 25. This year Ash Wednes-
day will come March 8 and Easter
Sunday April 20. The next period
in which Ash Wednesday will come
as late as March is the year 21O6
A. ID.
The year of 1916 began on Satur-
day and will end on Sunday, a hap
pening that seldom occurs and one
that gives to the year SO Saturdays
This would occur regularly every 20
years except that the Compilers OF
the Gregorian calendar provided
that centuries not divisible evenly
by four shall not be leap years
Hence when such century occurs
as did 1900, there is lapse OF 40
years between leap years that begih
on Saturday and end on sunday
From this year on the % year per-
iod proceeds according to the estap-
lished rule.

Ginseng Brings Big Sum.

N. j. Loring, of Webster City, has
just sold 200 pounds of dried gin
seng root to an eastern firm for
5000, the product having brought
nearly $3.50 a pound. This root was
taken off an acre of ground. Mr..
Loring has been in the ginseng bust
ness for six years. He has ten beds,
planted to mature at different sea-
sons. When first planted the seed
must lie in the ground through two
winters before it sprouts and grows.
The plants must also be always un-
der artificial shades, which makes
the raising so expensive that few en-
gage in it. Mr.. Loring, however,
now has his beds along where he may
expect a harvest each year. Mr.. Lor-
ing is rural mail carrier out of
Webster City and raises ginseng as
a sideline. Falls Sentinel.

and the DEBORAH high school teams.
The DEBORAH boys have not been
defeated this season, and the kind of
basket ball they are playing puts
them in the front ranks of the con-

To End Catarrhal Deafness and
 Head Noises

Persons suffering from catarrhal deafness and head noises will be glad to know that this distressing affliction can usually be successfully treated at home by an internal medicine that in many instances has effected complete relief after other treatments have failed, Sufferers who could scarcely hear a watch tick tell how they have had their hearing restored to such an extent that the tick of watch was plainly audible seven or eight inches away from either ear. Therefore, if you know of someone who is troubled with head noises or catarrhal deafness cut out this formula and hand it to them and you will have been the means of saving some poor suf- ferer from perhaps total deafness. The prescription can be prepared at home and is made as follows:
 Secure from your druggist l oz. Par mint Double Strength), about 75 cents worth. Take this home and add to it IA pint of hot water and oZ. of granu- lated sugar; stir until dissolved Take one tablespoonful four times day Parmint is used in this way not only to reduce by tonic action the inflamma- tion and swelling in the Eustachian Tubes, and thus to equalize the air pres sure on the drum, hut to correct any ex- cess of secretions in the middle ear, and the results 1t gives are nearly always quick and effective
 Every person who has catarrh in any form should give this receipt a trial and free themselves from this destructive disease.
