There seems to be considerable de-
sire on the part of many of the citizens
of Dolores to see the town take steps
to get electric lights. and the writer
has been approached on the subject
several times lately. 1t seems to be
the general opinion that it will be
necessary to wait until next springs
election and then elect a board of trus.
tees favorable to lights before any
thing can be done. However, we be-
lieve that this is an unnecessary delay.
We believe that if pressure enough is
brought to bear upon the present
board that they will get together on
some kind of proposition to furnish
lights for the streets and residences of
Dolores. OF course the Town should
own its lighting system, and for ten or
twelve thousand dollars an adequate
system could be put in. The price Of
lights could be made very reasonable
and yet the revenue from the lights
would pay running expenses and inter-
est on bonds. It is disgrace that q
town as prosperous as Dolores is should
be without electric lights, when at
least three-fourths of our citizens
want them. Talk to the members Of
the board Of trustees regarding the
matter and let them know that you are
in earnest about wanting lights.

l took 1850 pounds of wheat to the
mill Saturday and brought home l,750
pounds of flour and bran. In answer
to my inquiry as to what became of
the other hundred pounds they showed
me q big pile Of dirt and chaff under
the fan. Then Mr.. Mowry explained
that four pounds is lost in grinding a
hundred pounds of wheat. In other
words, one hundred pounds of wheat
makes sixty-four pounds Of -four Of the
first grade or sixty-six pounds of the
second grade, and thirty pounds of
bran. The rest evaporates. am
writing all this because SO many are
unable to understand why there is q
loss of weight between what they
take to mill and what they bring home.

H. C. Hoover Food Commissioner,

SIR
We a committee appointed by the
wheat growers Of Montezuma county
Colorado, wish to present the wheat
situation as it exists here.
First under normal conditions we do
not raise enough wheat for home con-
sumption and are compelled to import
from Denver thirty per cent of the
-four we use. ...
Second our County Agriculturist
states that our present crop is ten per
cent below normal. ~
Third the freight from Dolores to
Kansas City. Mo-, is forty-five cents
per bushei which leaves US price of
one dollar and seventy-four cents per
bushel here.
Fourth the -four we receive from the
outside costs US the Denver price plus
the freight from Denver to Dolores or
Mancos or about twelve dollars per bar
rel at present. We therefore ask that
we be allowed the Kansas City price
for wheat here. Signed,
