Mrs. Sophia c. cheIIew Loses Suit

Colorado Springs.-The case of Mrs
Sophia Gertrude Chellew, who several
years ago started suit for half OF th9
es cate of Winfield Scott Stratton, late
multimill onaire mining KING, was
thrown out of court by County Judge
w. p. Kinney at the CONCLUSION oil
several days of evidence. He declared
his decision that the claimant was not
the widow of Strattol, according to
the testimony given by witnesses.
His specific f.. .lings were:
That from Dec. 81, 1873. to Jan. 2,
1874, Stratton was in or near Colo
rado SpriI gs. and not in Texas. where
Mrs. Chellew claims he was.
That A. N. Poor, first husband oil
Mrs. Chellew. died in 1875. and that
therefore the claimant was Mrs. Poor
at the time she claims to have mar
ried Stratton:
That the claimant was not married
to Stratton Jan 1, 1874, in Texas, as
set torth in her complaint.
Judge Kinney's decision ends the
suit as far as his court concerned
unless an appeal is taken. which is
not expected.

WESTERN CANADA
Accompanying Industries Also
Prove Highly Profitable.

The cheese industry throughout
western Canada today is in highly
fiourishing condition and is bound in
very short time to become much
more important. The war has created
its use abroad has given it lot OF
useful advertising. The article known
as Canadian cheese is now sought not
only by the soldier in the trenches,
but by the ordinary civilian consumer,
Who. having used it, is quick to ap-
preciate its value. This means that
after the war there will be demand
created for it that would not other
wise have been. Up to the present
the war needs have limited the local
supply, but with the increased effort
that is now being put forth it is hoped
that this will be met. AS matter or
course the prices are high, and the
farmers who contribute to the cheese
factories are making money.
The cheese season is now fully open
and there is every prospect of an ex-
cellent year because the high price
which obtained last year will undoubt-
edly be maintained this season. West
ern Canada has all the natural re-
sources for the making of cheese. the
feed and the cool nights. two things
become one OF the finest cheese coun-
tries of the continent
The lower foothills of Alberta. used
only at the present time as ranges or
for no purpose. will in time produce
cheese in great quantities, and doubt
less will soon equal the famous up
lands OF Denmark.
The cool nights mean the better
keeping of milk and cream and
cheese. and that is a great thing for
the industry. especially when COM
bined with possibilities of cattle feed
such as exist on the long slopes from
the Rockies eastward.
The hog market, which may be
classed as an adjunct of farming. is
an exceedingly good one. and the low
cost at which the feed can be pro-
duced, coupled with the high prices
realized. make this industry very prof
table.
One OF the first thoughts that occur
to the mind OF the average prospective
settler is the likelihood of suitable
markets. In this connection the fol-
