PINTO BEAN DAY NAMED
ONE POUND WORTH 1875 EGGS IN
FOOD VALUE.
Governor eunter. in Proclamation,
Urges Substitution Of Product fer
All Meat on Tuesdays.

Western Newspaper Union News Service
Denver.-The increased consump-
ton of Colorado pinto beans as sub
stitute for meat on meatless days is
urged upon the people of the state in
a proclamation issued by Governor
julius C. Gunter. The following is the
proclamation:
Inasmuch as the United States food
administration. OF necessity, has desig-
mated Tuesday of each week as meat
less day: and.
Whereas. the Colorado pinto bean
is the best and most available sub
stitute for meat of all kinds and
should be used by Colorado people,
because
1. A pound of Colorado pinto
beans is the equivalent OF 1.63 pounds
Of sirloin steak. 2.01 pounds of round
steak. or 1876 eggs.
~. Careful analyses by government
and state authorities show the food
value OF Colorado pinto beans to be
equal to and even superior to navy
beans.
3. The Colorado pinto bean has
crop under dry farming conditions.
A. Colorado raised In 1917, In re-
Spouse to the plea for increased food
production, five times the quantity
produced in 1916 and there are now
in the hands of the growers 10000, 900
pounds seeking a market at a price
much less than tiat at which navy
beans are sold.
s. The use OF this excellent article
OF food by all Colorado will relieve the
necessity of importing other foods and
therefore release for government use
rolling stock needed for other pur-
poses.
6. The greater use OF Colorado
pinto beans will raise the price to the
grower; will reduce the price of east
ern grown beans to the consumer and
will. at the same time. encourage the
greater production of this staple
article of food In response to war de-
mands.
Z. Coloradoans should encourage
the use of pinto beans as home pro
duct because the crop is capable of
greatly increased production in this
state.
g.. The growth OF this crop will put
the ground In excellent condition for
the planting OF wheat rye and furnish
valuable by-products for live stock.
8. Pinto beans are easily stored
and handled. are non-perishable and
do not depreciate with age.
Now, therefore, all Colorado fam.
lilies. hotels. restaurants. boarding
houses and dining cars are asked in
aid of the general war campaign to
use Colorado pinto beans as substi-
tute for meat on Tuesday of each
week.

letter to the envelope and decided he
would go over It again that night.
In the quiet of his home he argued
the matter out. In the letter 1t was
stated that Smith 4 Brown courted
the most rigid investigation and sug-
gested that prospective clients inquire
OF Gum & Bradburn, a commercial
agency. as to their standing. Mr..
Jones decided such would be n rea-
sonable test, and accordingly wrote a
letter to Gum & Bradburn. asking for
complete information regarding the
firm of brokers. The reply wns very
favorable. Smith & Brown are re-
sponsible and have ample capital. We
recommend them without quallflca-
tion." said the report.
Mr.. Jones sent 500 to become a
member of the syndicate.
The days that followed were full of
anxiety for him. How was the venture
progressing? When would he receive
the letter apprising him of the out
come?
The news came in an unexpected
manner. II was in the metropolitan
newspaper he received weekly. He
read:
ANOTHER MARKET swINDLE
Smith 4 Brown, 'brokerr- collect thou
sands from wouid-be spectators and DO
camp
The thing he feared had happened
to him. He was swindledi
A week or so later letter came to
him from the Society for Protection of
Investors. 1t stated that If he had had
any unfortunate dealings with the I'M
scrupulous investment houses they. a
society formed purely for protective
purposes. would look into his case and
see what could be done. But Mr.. Jones
had become wary through his expert
ence with Gum K Bradburn. deciding
that he would stick to business and
not mix in with high finance. In this
he was very wise. for the Society for
Protection of Investors was In reality
backed by the owners of the defunct
Smith & Brown. Its purpose was to
direct Mr. Jones to their newest ven
ture And the Gum & Bradburn COM
merclal agency was also backed by the
renowned Jim Smith and his nefarlous
apparent.
Such. In brief. is the composite ex-
perience of thousands who trust them
selves to the doubtful mercies of firms
in the same category of Smith &
Brown. Their appeal is subtle and
often blinds the shrewdest.
How can you discriminate between
the legitimate and illegitimate invest
ment banker7 First, beware of the
financial house that offers stock that
will on a specified date sell for a
higher price. or where extravagant div
idends are guaranteed. or where stock
Is sold way below par and a large
commission paid to agents. These are
generally the earmarks of the offerings
of an INSCRIPTIONS house and should
be Stunned. Second, inquire at your
local bank as to the standing of the
firm with which you propose dealing.
