The coming to the field of the diff

to the producers. They feel that
Healdton crude has never sold at a
fair price and they are of the opinion
that the price will reach as high as
$l5O a barrel during the spring
months The price being paid now is
90 cents and very little Of it is selling

"AZOTURIA IN HORSES"

As | have had quite a number OF
calls recently to treat cases of azo.
turia l think perhaps an article or
this subject will not be out of place
and may possibly be the means OF
preventing some of this trouble as
we'll as saving few good horses.
This is rather peculiar disease in
that it only affects healthy horses
that are in the pink of condition IT
also attacks them very suddenly and
always following a few days of idle
ness on rich feed. Azoturia never af-
fects horse that is worked every
day or that is thin in flesh. Mules
also sometimes have azoturia but not
so often as horses.
Azoturia is caused by too many
nutriments being stored up in the
liver and then being liberated into
the blood by too violent exercise, and
this in turn affecting the large mus
cles of the hips or shoulders.
When horse has been idle few
days, he is usually in high spirits
and If allowed to, will start out too
last. The first symptoms of azoturia
YOU will notice will be when the ami
NAL goes a mile or two feeling fine
and anxious to go then he will pers-
pre- freely, begin to slow up and get
stlll and if forced to keep going, will
keep getting worse until he finally
lalls and is unable 60 get up When
horse gets in this condition, you
should send for a veterinarian at
once.
Ihls disease is easily prevented so
mere is really no necessity for your
nurses TO get it. Do not feed your
HOrses heavy on grain or other rich
iced when they get little or no exer-
cse' Also, when your horses have
Oeen idle for day or two especially
IN cold weather, you should start
Aem on the road or in their work
very slow and if on the road, they
SHOULD be made to walk the first half
'llle or so. Also should you notice
any symptoms of the disease you
must stop the horse right there.
O'ahket him, and keep him Just as
Fu'et as possible. If kept quiet for
=" hour or two, the horse will usual
leel about as well as ever, unless
'Ae disease has developed to an ad-
'anced stage before stopping the
horse
with Just little reasonable care
4"u Use of your horses, you will new
De troubled with this condition
s"U I may also prevent your 10 sirg
good horse occasionally.

TAYLOR HOME FROM TRIP
TO BATTLE ZONE
Congressman Says Ships and Tanks
Must be Provided by America.

Denver, Dec. 3.-Congressman Ed
ward r. Taylor of Colorado, arrived
in Denver today fresh from his trip
to European battlefelds. Congress-
man Taylor brought back with him
an empty shell from a French gun
one of the first twelve shots fired by
the American forces in the war. Co
ordination and transportation are the
insure victory the Congressman said.
There must be coordination
among the allies he declared. "The
war must be carried on under one
co-ordinated head And besides we
must have transportation. 1t would
be criminal to send a great army to
Europe without supplies. We can't
expect England to feed our troops
We must have supply ships; and
more supply ships, so that the food
for our men can go forward as rap
idly as our fighters.
America must furnish hundreds
of tanks to fight the German pill box
es. The only implement that has
been found that will destroy Ger
man pill box is a tank.
America must play leading part
in this great offensive that is to come
on the western front. Belgium held
the line three weeks; France held it
more than a year; Great Britain is
holding it now. But they all are
waiting for us. It is up to the Uni
ted States to win the war"

MEXICAN BOYS IN THE TOLLS

The citizens of this section, espec-
tally the Mexicans, were considerably
aroused Sunday night and Monday
morning of this week, when the news
was circulated that two young girls
Louisa Silva, daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. John Silva, and Tona Montoya,
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Juan Mon
toya, had been kidnapped. Later in
the day Monday, both were found,
having spent the night in the Cath
olic church.
1t seems that these girls, who are
under sixteen years of age, have
sweethearts in the persons of Guadu-
lupe Martinez and Elias Trujillo,
young fellows 10 years old, of Monte
Vista. They had pursuaded the girls
to go to Monte Vista with them and
from that point to Alamosa, where
they would be married. In occord-
ance with these plans they aboarded
Sunday nights train, but the girls
were taken off the train just below
town by Clemente Soles, uncle of the
Silva girl. Later during the night
we understand, the quartet got away
in an auto but were caught Monday
morning excitement ran rather high.
and Juan Montoya threatened the
life Of one of the enticers, but was
prevented from doing any harm by
friends and officers.
The young men concerned were
arrested during the day under the
charge, made by Montoya, of kid
mapping girls under 16 years of age.
At the preliminary hearing before
Justice Newlin, Monday evening.
they were found guilty and bound
over to the term of the district court
set for December IT. Bonds were
fixed for $1,000. Neither of the ac-
cused has been able TO give bail and
it is probable that they will stay in
the county jail until trial comes up.
