Fork, yesterday lost five head Of blood

neighborhood- wide warning was
sent out to all ranchers and stockmeu
to get their stock out of the hills until
the grass has grown to sufficient height
to permit grazing.
Death tamas grows more quickly
than grass and is one of the first weeds
to appear in the spring. 1t has a bulb
and is much in the shape of an onion,
When the ground is soft the entire

Six more bodies were brought from

hundred and twenty men lost their
lives in an explosion in the mine Fri
day, April 27. The bodies recovered

May have all been identified save
one. Among the bodies recovered was
that of George F. Brown, coal miner,
who was found on his knees with his
coat over his head, indicating that he
may have lived for, some little time
after the explosion and had thrown his
coat over his face to keep out the dead
ly fumes Of the afterdamp. The rescue
crews have reported several instances
Of this kind. A slavish coal miner was
found sitting erect with his back
against the side of the working pla'e
in the most peaceful attitude possible,
as II he had quietly sat down and
waited for death or had been sitting
down when he was overtaken by death.

HOW TO PRONOUNCE
NAMES OF ENJOYS

, Following is list of the names of
the French ENJOYS to the United States
and key to pronunciation Of ths
names:
Viviani: vee-vee-ahnee, accent on
final syllable.
Joffre: zhuffr, one syllable; the sound
of the must be merged to prevent its
sounding as second syllable.
DeChambrun: de shombroon.
Hovelacque: ho.ve-lok, accent en-
last syllable.
Simon: seemo, syllables equal.
Raquin: ra-kan, syllables eqsats
first as in cat.
Remond: re-mohn, syllables equal
as in last syllable of better.
Fabry: -fa-bree, accents equal.
Tossan: to-san, short o.
Chocheprat: sho-sha prah, two first
syllables sounded almost as one.

rapidly as possible. If this corn is
soaked for several hours and boiled IN
milk with little piece of butter with
pepper and salt added, it is quite equal
if not superior to canned corn.
Parsnips may be left in the ground
all winter and used in the early spring
before growth commences; they will
be found more tender and delicious at
this time on account of the freezing
they passed through.
All of the vegetables and herbs
mentioned are of the easiest culture,
requiring only medium quality soils to
produce fair crops; they should be
kept free from weeds, and constantly
cultivated, any special fertilization or
cultivation will be well repaid, how
ever, by heavier yields and more ten
der products.
Weeds in fence corners and out Of
the way places should be treated by
spraying with sulphate of iron, Atlas
A or Eureka weed killer. This should
be made community proposition as
concerted action is needed to insure re-
suits. Close attention to the above
outline will result in vastly increased
food supply during this coming winter,
besides furnishing the table with n
number of delightful dishes which have
only too often been absent in the
American household.-Dr. Ernest W. D.

SAVE YOUR BOTTLES

The home canning specialists of the
United States department of agricul-
ture urge every housekeeper to save
bottles-especially wide-necked ones
for putting up fruits, preserves, jellies,
jams, and fruit juices. Saving of bot
ties is highly important, they say, as
there threatens to be serious short
age of regular jars and preserving cans
this season.
The fruit products named, if sealed
with corks and paraffin, can be kept
perfectly in these makeshift contain
ers. Jellies, jams, and preserves can
be kept even in ordinary drinking
glasses, by the use of paper and par
affin. Fruit juices should be packed in
ordinary small-necked bottles.
Vegetables, soups, and meats, on the
other hand, to keep must be sealed by
the usual fruit jar or tin can packing
methods. Reserve regular containers
for foods that cannot be packed in bot.
ties.
A serious shortage of preserv-
ing jars and cans is threatened.
Glass bottles especially wide
necked ones-are useful for put
ting up fruits, iellies, and pre-
serves.
Put up fruit juices in ordinary
bottles.
Reserve regular preserving jars
and cans for canning vegetables,
soups, and meats.-United States
Department of Agriculture.
The specialists are also urging all
members of canning clubs and others
not only to can products, but to dry
and evaporate all such products as ap.
Piles, pumpkin, and squash. They ad-
wise strongly that if containers are
scarce locally, those in stock should be
used to preserve perishable products
which have the highest nutritive value.
Nothing should be packed in jars or
cans which can be conserved effective
ly in other ways.
| Candy containers or other glass jars
with screw tops of glass shoppers, and
in fact any receptacle of glass, crock
cry, or porcelain, can be sealed with
cork or paper and paraffin.
Large tin canisters or tin cans with
removable covers, provided the body
Of the container is air and water tight,
will be found useful in canning certain
fruit products. Such containers :an
be sterilized and their covers hermet-
ically sealed in place with solder or
wax.

AVOID FARRow1Na IN FALL

Articles are being published every
where urging an increase of meat pro
duction. This is justified because of a
decrease of total numbers of livestock
during the past five years, accompanied
by a considerable increase in consum-
ing population. Much of the advice
given concerning the holding and
breeding of livestock is good, but oc-
casionally someone is over enthusiastic
and urges methods that are impractical.
One such piece of advice advocates
immediate breeding of sows for fall
litters. This is probably good advice
for sections having fall pastures. 1t is
not good advice for Colorado. Sows
bred now would farrow in September.
and by the time the pigs would be old
enough to make use of pasture, there
would be no further growth Of alfalfa.
This means that pigs would have 70
be raised during the winter on grain.
It is a well established fact that fall
litters in this state make much slower
growth than spring litters, and every
pound Of grain costs more. The grain
fed to such pigs furnishes more human
food than pork produced from the
grain. The best thing to do in Colo
RADIO is to run your dry sows and fall
gifts through the summer, breeding
them for late winter litters to be far.
