ED. LIE FEvRE

Gunnison county lost one Of its
most progressive young ranchmen in
the death Sunday morning at the Rio
Grande hospital in Salida of E. L.
LeFevre.
Ed. was taken q week ago Monday
70 the hospital, m operation foI
strangulated hernia being necessary
For four days he seemed TO improve
but at the time of the operation per
itonitis had set in and the case wa
too far gone for even his rugged CON
stitution to recover. II IL another
death chargable to the dread influenza,
since Mr.. LeFevre was taken sick on
March 3 with that disease.
Funeral services were held at Ouxay
Tuesday, this being the family home,
and the body WAS accompanied from
Salida by the wife, his mother, Mn
II. C. LeFevre and sister Ruth whc
had been called to his bedside ere he
passed away. He was laid to rest IN
Cedar Hill cemetery beside his father
Another sister, Louise, and brother
VIM. LeFevre, live at Ouray. while his
younger brother, Cassell, is in France
Mr.. LeFevre was born at Little
Rock, Arkansas, June %, 1885, max
inR him 80 years Of age. The family
came to Ouray in 1892. In 1911 he
moved to Gunnison county and mar
ried Miss Katie Belle Davis on Nov,
2, 1913 Their home has since been
On the Joe Mckee ranch near Castle
Ton, where he was very successful.
Ed. LeFevre Wns Q Vigorous, athlet-
Sc young man efsRreat promise. Al
ways active in Cattlemen,s Day sports,
open hearted and yet keen in business,
6e bid fair to take leading place in
county affairs. Great sympathy is ex-
tended to the sorrowing wife and to
tie relatives at Ouray.

TRYING DIFFERENT KINDS OF
ROAD SURFAClNG MATERIAL

A decided improvement for the Rain
Bow Route thru Montrose county will
be the gravelling of the % miles of
road between Montrose and Delta.
If there was any piece Of road in
Western Colorado that needed fixing
il was this stretch of dobe dust where
the chuck holes were unually foot
deep in rapid succession, and then
blown level with fine white dust.
Speaking of surfacing roads, Com
missioner Geo. Miller and Road Supt
Wiley are trying out the peculiar de-
post Of white. chalky looking material
found cn top of the sandstone at the
quarry north Of town. It acts and
feels like soapstone dust, and when
wet down seems to pack as hard as
a pavement. II is tried in a number
Of places and if successful, would be
the ideal surfacing for our city streets
With the county grader, loading
five tons and hauling trailer or SO II
could be economically handled, and a
force of county men is now engaged
in getting out pile of this material
to surface the road to the river.
Shale is another material which is
being tried out by the state highway
commission in places, but whether any
of these are superior to good river
gravel is a matter Of experiment tc
determine.
A gravel sorting machine o.
screeing machine would probably pay
this county, for it would elevate the
gravel for convenient loading, sort il
into the different sizes, and separate
the boulders that now and then must
be handraked after surfacing.

AUTO LICENSE RUSH
EXPECTED ON NOW

Since the roads are about to clear
a rush to secure the 1919 licenses is
expected at the county clerks office
C. C. McWilliams declares only 2f
have SO far planked down the license
fee and as there were 1926 in the coun-
ty last year, with new car owners To
hear from, it is evident the State
Automobile Inspector will have job
unless things happen.
This inspector may be along any
day and anyone who runs . car with
out a license takes q big chance, fol
there is quite fine attached II hauled
into court.

MAY BE COLDS REAL RIVAL
Moiybdenitc, Used for Hardening Car
non Rinlns, Now Being Mined IN
Colorado Mountains.


With the melting of the snow
from the high peaks along the main
range in Summit county, between
Climax and Kokofno, Colo, min
ing boom, which promises to rival
the excitement which prevailed in
Leadville and other Colorado camps
ia early days, will start probably A.
900 or 5000 miners into the bills in
search of molybdenite, the metal used
in the hardening of cannon rifiing.
Preparations are now being made
for the rush into the hills as quickly
as the Is feet of snow which now
covers the molybdenite fields is melt
cd. The excitement in the district
followed the news that the Ameri-
can Metals company, which installed
4 plant at Climax at cost OF $780,
600, has recently shipped two cars
of the ore from the district, which
brought in the neighborhood of
$16O,0O0.
The high peaks III Summit coun-
ty are said to be literally covered
with molvbdenite, which is bringing
between -$1.5O and So pound, ac-
cording to well-infor1ned mining
men. Reports indicate that when
the weather permits there will be
between 10 and 100 cabins built On
the mountain peaks and the men
who are going into the hills are pre-
pairing to remain there until the
first SHOWS Of winter drive them out.
Deposits Of f1iolybdenite, which
vary from 30 to 100 feet in width,
sre said to have been discovered, and
when the prospectors get into the
hills it is believed that greater de-
posits Of the ore will be found.

HATS We. HoHEhzoLLERN.

2 at is difficult to see what the
shape of mans hat has to
do with freight cars" says Will
liam G. Shepherd in Every
body's. "And yet under the con-
servation department Of the war
industries board, hat makers are be-
ing encouraged to pack as many
hats as possible in one box, instead
of following the old custom of put
ting three hats in a box. The saw
ing in space that was made by one
firm alone in this way in six months,
was $40 freight cars, enough to load
two of the ten-minute ships. If the
time comes when American men are
asked to wear peaked derbies of the
Mother Goose type, SO that they can
be packed one inside another, ten or
twenty in box, they will do it glad
ly, realizing how they are helping
the speeding freight trains to an
swer the call of the hungry ten-min-
ute ships"

CITIZENSHIP GRANTED
ALIENS WHO SERVED

Any alien who has served in the
military or naval service of the Unit
ed States during the present war has
the privilege of becoming a citizen
without his having made a prelim-
mary declaration of intention, and
without proof of the usually requir-
ed five year residence within the
United States, providing he files a
petition for naturalization,
A discharged soldier who did not
have the opportunity to file while in
the service, should apply within six

The home service committees Of the
American Red Cross are prepared to
help any such man in making his ap-
plication to the nearest naturaliza-
ton bureau.
To the majority of men in the nor

COOPERATION NECESSARY.

Great Falls, February 2.-"The re-
cent Co-operators' Congress held in
Great Falls" said H. P. Griffin, as
sistant to the federal director in
charge of farm labor of the U. S. en-
ployment service, drought out the
crying need for cooperation between
tn farmers of Montana. This co-opera-
ton applies to the labor question as
we'll as to marketing, purchasing and
legislative affairs. It is not many
years since the farmrs Of Kansas ac-
tually kidnapped farm laborers on
the trains or took them from their
neighbors with the never-failing in
ducement of higher pay. In Montana
there are cases innumerable where
farmers have been injured by moi
working together for their mutual
benefit. There may be a pressing neee
for farm labor the coming year. Thi:
service will do it's best to alleviate
this need, to supply the farmers witt
all the help they desire at the tim!
they want it; but for it to be sue
cessful there must be c~o-operatlo1
among the farmers, not only with thu
service but with each other"
