HIGH WATER PERIOD OVER

The high water crest on the Grand
river was reached last Saturday when
the guage near the power house regis
tered 1875 feet in depth. The Roaring
Fork guage showed depth of s.5 feet
Since then the water has been gradual
ly receding until at this writing (Fri.
day noon) the Grand river is at n
depth of 1O.6 feet, with all indications
that the peak has been passed.
The water has done great damage
this year, several bridges being washe |
away, besides considerable damage to
the county roads in places. The water
cut around one of the piers at the
Grand Valley bridge to such extcn.
that it was feared the structure would
go out, and it is still thought to be
unsafe, although traffic has not been
halted. At Glenwood the water ran
around the north pier of the state
bridge although no damage was done,
beyond putting out of commission both
vapor caves for several days.

From observation it is found that the
cost of digging poisonous areas amounts
to about one-fourth the annual loss to
cattle. Moreover, it is figured that
after digging an area is safe for at
least ten years. During the present
season it is intended to dig three poi
son areas on the Holy Cross and at
least three projects on the White River
forest. A few men have been on this
work on the White River forest since
Il e latter part of May and it is hoped
that sufficient money will be available
to keep full crew of men busy all
season.
Professor L. E. Orr of Cleveland
Heights High school is now in Glen

ready to work and help the food sup

FOR STATEWIDE
PROHIBITION

At the Methodist church last Sunday
morning Rev. A. J. Finch, superintend-
ent of the Colorado Anti-Saloon league,
preached an excellent sermon, taking
for his subject a new heaven and
new earth, and looking optimistically
into the future he prophesied great
things for the temperance cause in the
very near future. Those who have wit
messed the wonderful strides for de.
cency and sobriety which have come to
pass during the past few years are
forced to the conclusion that Mr..
In the evening Mr.. Finch spoke on
the bone-dry law which will be enacted
in Colorado by petition this fall. He
spoke of the greatly improved condi-
tions since the saloons were banished
from the state, told of the better
health, the absene of crime and the
greater prosperity which has come to
the state since the grogshops were
voted out. He severely criticised the
miserable makeshift law now in force
which had the sanction and support of
some so-called temperance people.
Mr.. Finch says the people are thor
oughly disgusted with the present law
which makes every man his own doctor
and the county clerk the community
bartender and that they will supplant
this farcial law with a bone-dry meas
ure in November.

This table will help you to make
good griddle cakes, mullins, cakes,
cookies, drop biscuits, and nut or raisln
bread without using any wheat flour.
You will not need any new recipes.
Just use the ones you have always
liked, but for each cup of flour use the
amount of substitute given in the
table.
Cautions
/. All measurements should be ac-
curate. A standard measuring cup is
equal to half pint.
2. The batter often looks too thick
or too thin, but you will find that #
you have measured as given in the
table the result will be good after
baking.
8. Bake all substitute mixtures
more slowly and longer.
4. Drop biscuits are better than
rolled biscuits, when substitutes are
used.
s. Pie crusts often do not roll out
well and have to be patted on to the
pan. They do not need chilling before
baking.

Owing to the high water last week
which threatened heavy destruction Of
property at Red Cliff, the committee
having in charge the preparations for

felt justified in wiring the executive
that the affair had been postponed.
However, as soon as the waters be-
gan to subside they again called up the
governor and said "Come, for all
things are now ready" The governor
boarded the first train leaving Denve,
after receiving the second invitation,
but he was not able to reach Red Cliff
until Saturday evening.

TO COMBAT POISONOUS PLANTS

The losses to the stockmen using the
western ranges through poisonous
plants amount to an immense sum of
money each year. Some of these losses
are avoidable and some can be mini.
mized. Tall larkspur is the one plant
in western Colorado which is RESPONSE
BILE for the greatest part of the loss,
the loss on the White River national
forest during the season of 1917 alone
being about 500 head. In accordance
with the policy of the forest service,
Colorado forests will this year carry All
increased number of stock, but one Of
the questions which must be taken up
in connection with effective food con-
servation is the elimination of loss Of
stock. With this in mind local forest
officers of the White River and Holy
Cross offices held meetings with a
number Of stock associations during
the past winter and arrangements were
made with several Of the associations
to start the work Of eliminating lark
spur.
This work was started by the White
River forest in 1917, but It was de-
sired to take it up on . large scale
during the coming season. stockmen
are beginning to realize the value Of
this work and arrangements were made
whereby the work would be under the
supervision of the forest service with
the stock, associations furnishing half
Of the money and the government fur
nishing the other half. -l
The method used in eradicating lark
spur is to dig it out with mattocks,
the cost being from t3 to $s per acre.

Italians Gain Ground at Many
Points and Retake
Much Territory
AUSTRIA war WEARY

To all outward appearances the Aus
trian offensive in the Italian theater
thus far has met with failure all along
the front from the Venetian Alps to
the Adriatic sea.
In the hill region additional ground
has been recaptured from the invaders,
while along the Piave river where in
tensive fighting is in progress, at some
points with fluctuating results, the
balance seems to sway in favor of the
Italians.
South and east of Asiago the French
and Italians have retaken Pennar, Ber.
tigo and Costalunga, past which the
Austrians had hoped to push their
front and gain the Astico river valley,
which leads to Vicensea on the plains
below.
Not alone were the positions re-
gained, but more than 200 prisoners
fell into the hands of the allied troops.
On their part over the entire noun.
tain region, the Austrians have re-
mained quiet except when compelled to
60 on the defensive and then their eff
forts to hold back their antagonists
have lacked the stamina usual in men
whose hearts are in their task. This
condition has prevailed since the first
onslaught of the enemy was summarily
stopped by the fire of the British,
French and italian forces forming the
barrier to the Venetian plains.
More heart is being thrown into the
work by the enemy along the Piave
from the Montello plateau southwark
to the region lying east of Venice.
Here he still seems, notwithstanding
his heavy losses and numerous repulses
on various sectors, bent on throwing
his armies across the stream further
westward with his forces that already
have forded it. Nevertheless, further
setbacks to the Austrians have fol
lowed those of past days on the Montel-
10, where the Italians are disputing the
right of way to the plains. Likewise,
near the famous Zenson loop, further
down the stream, the enemy's heavy
attacks have been held under the coun-
ter blows, and he has fallen back near
er the river for reinforcements hastily
brought up.
Still further south, between Fossalta
and San Doni Di Piave the Italians
have further pushed back the invaders
and unofficial reports assert that they
have recaptured the village of Capo
Sle, lying on the edge of the marsh
region some 20 miles east of the his
toric Venice.
1t is not outside the range of posi-
bility that large number of the Aus
trians are in fair way to be taken
prisoners by the Italians for large
number of the pontoon bridges which
they threw across the Piave over the
14h mile front between the Conege-
lianc railway bridge and the Zenson
loop have been carried away on the
swollen stream. At any rate the loss
of these bridges will necessarily i'm
pede the reinforcement of the Aus
trians on the west bank of the stream
and the replenishment of their supplie'.

AirpIane Pilot Fires Several
Shots at Peaceful
Farm Irrigator
REPORTED TO SHERIFF

Grand Junction, June 21.-Breasting
the air currents rs miles north Of De-
Beque and three miles off Roam creek
proper, an airplane sped along yester-
day morning at 1O:3O o'clock, firing
upon the farms below with rapid-fire
machine gnu.
Irrigating in his field, Lloyd Frank
lin barely missed death, two of the
leaden messengers kicking up the water
at his feet.
Dwellers in the section all vouch for
the authenticity of the account and
maintain that an airplane equipped
with machine gun did open up on the
country for thirty miles thereabouts.
But strange feature of the statements
is that no one saw the airplane. Every
one heard the motor as it plunged the
plane ahead in an easterly direction,
and everyone heard the fusillade Of
shots, and some saw them hit the earth.
That is all. The mysterious visit Of
the bombing airplane is unexplained
by any logic that can be advanced.
Where it came from, if it came and
where it was going if in truth it was
going are unknown facts. And who the
cold -blooded pilot was who turned
machine gun upon the peaceful farmers
as they worked their crops are matters
which have not come to light as yet.
One does not have to get over to
France to experience thrills. One may
have them here at home.
Lloyd franklin states that he was
irrigating in his field about 1O:3O
clock when he heard a strange pur-
ring noise as if machinery were rapid
ly revolving and the sound came ap-
parently from the air. He scanned the
heavens, but the blindin Il light of the
sun prevented him getting good
view. He saw no airplane. Suddenly
shots fell at his feet. Then came the
distant and muffled report of gun
being rapidly fired.
From the angle at which the shots
were fired, it is evident to Franklin
that they were fired from a plane and
that the plane was moving rapidly
e's.""lu' ., *,
Franklin is not the only one who
gives credence to the narrative. All
the dwellers in that section vouch for
the facts. Sheriff Jeff Watson has been
notified of the strange shooting, and
is investigating the matter.
1t is thought that some inventor of
an aerial gun or new plane or both
may have been giving his pet hobbie,
their morning workout in the section
25 miles north of DeBeque. If this So
luton will not fit the case, there is no
other that can be advanced This is
dry state and all the people who heard
the revolutions of the propeller of the
aircraft and the reports of the gun,
could not have been drinking the same
brand of wet goods.

DEATH OF MRS. KATIE BEILoDI

Mrs. Katie Bellodi died at the Ken

wood in order to be with her family
during her last days.
Mrs. Bellodi was AZ years of age and
is survived by husband and seven
children, the youngest being seven
years of age. The Bellodis have re-
