Complain, '.as heen made that some
Moscow persons are guilty of cruelty
to animals by keeping rabbits penned
up and failing to feed them, provide
shelter and otherwise care for them.
AS Moscow has no humane society or
society for the prevention of cruelty
to animals, the complaint will be
made, it is said, to the county or city
officials. 1t is hoped that the COM
plants are unfounded. Certainly none
of Moscow's estimable citizens would
permit dumb animals to suffer for
want of food and shelter.

Moscow churches are to be COM
mended on the excellent work they
are doing for the students of the uni
versity. Every church is putting
forth special efforts TO induce the
young people to attend the services
and to make them feel at home. This
is a splendid influence which will be
by the students and their
parents.

WEALTH FROM WASTE
Products of Value Recovered
From Discarded Material.
War Experience in England Proves
That Refuse Can Be Turned
to Profit.

London.-The question of recovering
matter previously thrown away is one
that at last is receiving the attention
its Importance deserves, says S. How
ard Whitney, A. L. A. A.
He is the authority for the report
that during the war an organized sys-
tenn of waste prevention in all mill
tary camps enabled the ministry of
munitions to obtain large quantities of
gylcerin for the making of munitions,
which not only increased directly and
materially our supply of the sinews of
war, but enabled the officers in charge
of messing to provide better and
larger quantities of food for the men.
extra pay for cooks and better facili-
ties for canteens and sports.
Large quantities in the aggregate of
marrow and other bones, drippings,
rabbit skins and so on, which were
previously either thrown away or not
put to the best advantage, were sold
IN the national interest to recognized
government contractors at good prices,
Thereby INCREASING Tie dluOuul VI
money for general messing purposes.
A large revenue was derived in
Mesopotamia by a system of organized
collection and treatment of camp
waste for the prime purpose of re-
covering the valuable fats and
gIycerin. Nearly every kind of indus
trial waste can be treated success
fully from commercial point of view.
There are large profits to be made
by the recovery, for instance, from old
tinware and cuttings. These can be
and proftably treated by
first removing every trace of grease
(Which is in itself no small source of
revenue) and all the solder recovered.
At present solder is commanding a
high price. The steel base of every
tin plate is coated with valuable tin.
This tin can be removed and run into
ngots and is then quite ready for sale
to the original factories to be coated. !
The remaining scrap can be COM |
pressed into bales and dispatched to |

The Way the Contest Started.
The contest which has aroused such
widespread interest started in the fol-
lowing manner. Colonel King STAN
ley famous old Indian scout recently
toured the country on a wager in his
old Maxwell, which he called the
Desert Rat" Starting from Los
Angeles he proceeded to New York
City by way of Texas and Florida and
returned to California after passing
through Michigan, Montana, Oregon
and intervening states. The old Col
onel has great history, dating back
and was welcomed all along his trip,
including receptions by six state ex-
ecutives.
He had discovered and commented
on all kinds of interesting subjects.
But it was not until he reached Butte,
Montana, after having covered some
$4,000 miles that the old plainsman
even as much as recognized pretty
girl. Then in the great smelter town
he had his picture taken with comedy
western lass who he openly declared |
"the most beautiful girl in twenty
thousand miles,
This statement Immediately aroused |
the pride of every Maxwell dealer in
the United States and protests and
photographs poured into the Detroit
factory. Learning of the indignation
he Colonel refused to back down an
nch but on the other hand posted a
heck for $3.50 to show his determine
Ion At his suggestion a national
ontest was started and a committee
# four prominent New York experts
viii decide the burning question. The
colonel will pay 500 to any picture
eclared more beautiful than his Mon
ana queen and $50 to the Maxwell
ealer who submits the winning pic
ure
The contest is open to all but closes
at midnight November 18th.
here are no regulations except that
Maxwell dealer or employee must
end in the picture. Any kind of
photograph will be accepted by the

ORDER TO CONSERVE fuel

Washington, Dec. 4.-Dr.
Harry A. Garfield, United
States fuel administrator, to-
day authorized the following
statement: 1t is necessary
that coal shall be used only for
essential purposes. Public util-
tiles consuming coal should
discontinue to furnish power,
heat and light to non-essential
industries and should only con-
sumo sufficient coal to produce
enough light, power and heat
to meet the actual urgent
needs of the people. Adver-
tising signs and displays Of va
rious kinds necessitating the
use Of coal should be curtailed
and no coal should be distrib-
uted for such purposes. Pur-
suant to this policy, l have re-
quested the railroad admins
tration in this distribution Of
coal now or hereafter in its
possession to limit distribution
to these essential and urgent
uses. AS far as practicable un-
til the conditions warrant a
change in the distribution of
coal will be limited to the first
five classes of the priority list.
Retail dealers who distribute
coal for household require
ments, heating hotels, build
ings, hospitals, ETC., where it is
absolutely required and then
only in such limited quantities
that the supply may be distrib-
uted widely and prevent suffer
ing. The state and other local
authorities can materially aid
in inspecting and supervising
such distribution by retail deal
ers and the U. S. government
will be glad to leave the super
vision and control of such dis
tribution by dealers entirely to
any state, county or municipal
ity which may make provision
therefor. The distribution to
retail dealers must necessarily
be administered by the Rail.

ance of the orders already

A BIG SURPRISE

As was reported some time ago the
athletes returning to Monte Vista
from the army and navy have got =
little on edge for exercise and organ
lied Basket Ball club. Most Of the
members were good players and
thought IL wouldn't be good policy
to give up their regular pleasures To
train for basket ball as they could
undoubtedly clean up on anything In
the country with very little practice.
Exercise was what they wanted. not
work, and they could win the South
ern Colorado championship anyway
since they had thebest material in
the state. However, they wers due
for a surprise and big one.
Thanksgiving day Manassa wanted
the team to give them = game at
Manassa. II was decided that a
number OF the boys would 20 down
and play them. II didn't make much
difference who went. THE game
was ours" Thanksgiving afternoon
nine OF the boys got together and
left for Manassa. Very few OF them
wanted to go as Il was Just q trip for
nothing: Mansssa couldn't show
them anything interesting. Well. to
make It short. Manassa cleaned up
on Monte Vista good and proper
The score was 7S to IA In Manassa' 4
favor and II could have been more
for them II they hadn't practiced q
little team work before shooting for
for the basket They had the
game and needed the practice
Instead OF shooting when they
could. they passed the ball around
between them learning to make their
passes snappy.
Manassa has n fine team; as good
as is to be found in this part OF the
state. II Monte Vista Is to get the
championship they have to get busy
The basket ball players are deter.
mined to win the honor. but they are
going to have the support of the
Monte Vista people.
