The records of the secretary of
states office show that there are ap-
proNimately $1,000 of the 1917 auto
mobile tags in use in Colorado today
as against approximately 10000 this
! time Il year ago. This increase is
due not only to the purchase of an in
creased number of machines. but also
TO the fact that the secretary of state
has employed additional and expert
automobile license inspectors who have
been covering the state for the past
three months on the trail of auto
mobile license "slackoTs."

A. o. Brooke declares that in a re-
cent trip from Denver to Gunnison
he passed cars by the hundred.
and almost thousands. Between Dem
yer and Colorado Springs he was new
er out of sight of an on-coming auto.
As he passed one point driver had
an accident and backed into the ditch.
Within five minutes twenty cars had
gathered and they literally picked that
man up and put him on the road. "Ill
bet says Brooke, that there is five
times as much travel by car as by
railway train" When do you expect
that ratio to hold over here on the
Rainbow Route? was the question.
Whenever the roads get good enough
and the fish get big enough" he re-
piled.

GROW FIGS IN FLOWER POTS
Fruit Will Ripen II Given the Same
Treatment That Is Accorded the
Rubber Plant.

The fig is one of the oldest fruits
Known, and since 1t has become known
that figs can be grown in pots and
fruited in the conservatory or In the
open ground, where there Is three
months warm summer weather, there
has been a great demand for the
quick-bearing varieties by people anx-
iOus to grow fresh figs. These vari-
eties begin to fruit by the time the
young shoots are 6 inches long and
form fig at every leaf. Unlike ap-
pies, peaches and other fruits of the
kind, the fig is more like the raspberry
or blackberry in the respect that the
fruit does not ripen all at one time.
Figs continue to develop and ripen
fruit until checked by cold weather.
For pot culture the fig requires about
the same treatment as a rubber plant,
and If supplied with plenty OF water
the fruit will ripen. Vigorous plants
will hav4 fruit In all stages of devel-
opment, c-cm the smallest green fruit
