Old Partners Meet

F. G. Anderson. recently of Adams,
Tenn. has engaged in partnership
with w. A. Browning, also a former
Adams, Tenn. resident and business
man, and they have taken over the
entire store of F. j. Winter.
Several weeks ago Mr.. Browning
bought half interest in the business
with Mr.. Winter and during the past
week Mr.. Anderson closed a deal for
Mr.. Winters interest, and the new
firm will be known as Browning &
Anderson.
Mr.. Browning and Mr.. Anderson
are former business partners, having
been in the mercantile business to-
gether in Tennessee fbr seven years
until a few months ago when they
sold out and Mr.. Browning came to
Colorado. Mr.. Anderson went to
Kentucky to look for a location but
so pleased was Mr.. Browning with
Colorado that he was prompted to
say good word for this state, and
more escepially for Ordway and Crow
ley county, and the remittance into
partnership came about.
These men are each experienced
business men in the general mercan-
tile business and during the time Mr.
Browning has been here he has made
a lot of strong friends. His partner.
Mr.. Anderson, is also a most con-
genial man and 1t will not be long
until they are among the well known
business concerns of this district.
Mr.. Anderson's family, a wife and

Telephone Rates

The mountain states Telephone Co.
is asking for raise in rates. We do
not know what 1t costs to operate
phone lines and furnish service to
the people. but inasmuch as rates in
everything else have raised during the
past year or two the telephone COM
panys certainly has the right to make
plea for an increase and, II on
proper showing, they are entitled to
are courting raises in anything, but
no matter what the commodity we
prefer the raise with good service
rather than old rates in high-price
times with resultant poor service.
There was a time when people
started advocating government own
ership when any concern such as a
railroad or phone company asked any
increase in rates. But under govern
ment management at present the rail-
roads are giving the poorest service
ever In the history of the country,
and yet the director general of rail-
roads for the government is calling
on Congress for millions of dollars.
at the same time we are paying more
for railway tickets. more for freight
and more for every bit of service we
get from the roads under govern
ment direction and getting less in
service.
If the phone rates are deemed high
enough and the telephone company
cannot operate under these rates we
might turn 1t entirely over to the
government. buy the service at the
present rates and pay the losses in
taxation-which we are surely doing
with the railway business under Uncle
Samuel's direction.

USED BY OLD GREEK SURGEON
instruments Employed TWO Thousand
Years Ago Much Like Those
of Modern Day.

American surgeons realize now how
much a rubbish heap may teach a
man. A complete set of surgical in
struments was found recently by men
digging in scrap pile in Colopon, an
ancient Greek city. In spite of the
fact that they We're used 1000 years
ago there is not much difference be-
tween them and the implements that
are poked into the anatomy of a mod
ern man. In the set are small knives
with handles of decorated bronze, a
metal which the Greeks thought was
especially healing. There are also
several pairs of forceps, one of them
used to extract the heads of arrows
and lances from wounded warriors.
Another instrument is for drilling
holes in the bones of the skull, an
other for cauterizing the flesh. Be
sides these are vessels for cupping
and bleeding, a small covered bronze
box for delicate instruments, a slab
of stone for mixing certain drugs, and
a pair of scales which still balance
perfectly In addition to these there
is the handsome purple glass beaker,
probably the drinking cup of the un-
known surgeon who made use of all
these Instruments.

Packing House By-Products.

The by-products in the packing

classes-the edible and the inedible.
The inedible constitute the external
covering Chair, horns. hoofs and hides),
some of the offal, and the bones From
these are prepared a great variety of
substances, some of which have de-
veloped into enormous industries in
themselves, such as leather, soap, glue
and fertilizer. The last mentioned rep
resents the ultimate utilization of
packing house waste. For example,
in the manufacture of buttons, combs.
knife handles and spatulas from the
horns and hoofs of cattle and sheep
and the hoofs of hogs the waste re-
sultins from the preparation of these
articles was at one time thrown away,
but it has been found that by treating
such material with sulphuric acid the
nitrogen which it contains becomes
available as a fertilizer.
