Western Stock Show at Denver,
which opens on January 20, will be
full-fiedged Dairy Show. The rap
id development of the dairy in
dustry thru the Rocky Mountain
states has made this feature of the
annual show an absolute neces-
sity. The coming exhibition will
be held under the auspices of the
Colorado State Dairymen's Associ-
alton, and will contain dairy cat
tie OF all the principal breeds from
practically all of the Rocky Noun
tain states. A full classification
hasbeen provided, with more than
$1,000 in premiums The show will
have the support of the principal

expected that it will be of w0nS
dsrful value in the dairy industry

CURIOUS TOBACCO LORE.
Pipe Smoking Was Once Regarded as
an Art In England.

Pipe Smoking Was Once Regarded as
an Art In England.
Every one knows that tobacco was
one Of the gifts of the new world to
the old and that Sir Walter Raleigh
made smoking fashionable in England
in the days Of Queen Elizabeth. For
the next fifty years the smoking Of
pipes not only became general among
all classes, but a thing of highest fash
ion, held in light of an art In those
days it was not said that man smoked
tobacco, but that he drank" or
sucked" tobacco, and the smoker was
called q "tobacconist.''
A curious feature of tobacco manners
among fashionable smokers of the EliZ-
abethan period was the practice of
passing the pipe from one to another,
after the fashion of a loving cup. In a
play of 1914 one London gallant says
to another who is smoking, please
you to import your smoker" Every
willingly, SIR says the smoker. No. 2
takes Whit or so and courteOusly
says, "In good faith, pipe Of excel
lent vapor.'
The rich young swell carried about
with him an elaborate tobacco appa-
ratus, often of gold or silver. 1t includ-
ed a tobacco box, tongs with which to
lift a live coal to light his pipe, ladle
'fOr the cold shuttle into the 'nostrill,
q printing iron and as large collection
of pipes as his means could afford and
his pockets could find room for. Some
times the tobacco box was Of ivory and
occasionally looking glass was set III
the lid, SO that when the beau opened
it to take out tobacco he could also
have view of his delectable person.
