Mountain Ash is
Most Beautiful Tree

In our rambles about town we
saw in the yards of Geo. X. Kim
ball and w. E. Renshaw beauti-
full specie of a tree-on which
we had never seen before. We
wondered what it could be, but
never thought to inquire when
with either of the two gentlemen.
Today, however, Mr.. Kimball
brought several branches to the
Siftings- News office and satisfied
our curiosity. The tree is a noun
tain ash, and in the spring BIOS
SONS out and later is filed with
clusters of red berries. It makes
the most beautiful tree, in our
estimation, grown.
Arborculturists say that the life
of the tree is only fifteen years at
the longest, but Mr. Kimball says
he has had his at least twenty-five
years, which proves that even
arborculturists nevet get too old
to learn.

Mining Needs a Min
ing Man for Senator

Mine workers as we'll as mine
owners will be benefited by the
election of William E. Renshaw
Every ballot that is cast for him
is cast for the mining interest of
this community. Legislation must
be brought about that will stimu-
late mining, and the way to do
that is to elect mining men. Rem
shaw's interest is to the. interest
OF every person in the community.
It IS useless to say how badl we
need lt-Dau euUugu rs Jne best
term that can be applied. If MIR.
Renshaw is elected he will work
to the interest of mining because
that is his business, and he under
stands it. 1t will absolutely take
legislation to revive mining, and
it is up to the people to see that
mining men are elected. Mr.. Rem
shaw, the Republican candidate
for state senator from this district,
knows mining as few men in the
state know it. From experience
he knows the problem of the in
dustry and of men working in the
mines. 1t remains to be seen if
the voters are interested in the
revival OF mining to the extent
that they will vote to their own
interests.

Vote for the Bonds

Grave danger exists that Colo
RADIO will lose its share of the
money set aside by congress for
the construction of good roads
thruout the United States. The
moneys derived from the one mill
levy, from license fees and from
the state gasoline tax are not suffi-
cient to maintain and repair ex-
isting roads and at the same time
meet dollar for dollar the SC. called
federal aid appropriations. If the
people of the state do not come to
the rescue of the state highway
department, Colorado will be COM
PEELED to notify the federal gov
ernment next year that a large
portion of the money set aside for
Colorado cannot be used.
The federal aid appropriation
for Colorado will exceed 81 100000
for the year 1921 and in 1922 it
will be still larger. The only rem
edy at hand, to secure this money
for the state, is the S5.000,000
bond issue authorized by the
twenty-second general assembly
and to be submitted to the people
at the election in November. If
this bond issue carries, the money
will be sufficient to enable the
state government to take full adj
vantage Of congress liberality.

TEACHERS need
HIGHER SALARY
Are Unable to Live on Only
IS per cent More Than They
Received Three Years Ago; C.
E. Greene Is Captain of the
Movement In This District

Those interested in public edu-
cation will recall that the Colorado
Education association last year
appointed committee on teachers
salaries, with Superintendent Chas
=. Greene of Idaho Springs as
chairman. This committee made
a thorough study of the salaries
being paid in this state. and the
report was published and sent to
all teachers and boards of educa
ton. The work of this committee
was reviewed by commission on
teachers salaries appointed by the
governor, who studied the question
from the standpoint Of the busi-
ness man. AS result of their
study certain recommendations
were made regarding legislation.
T b ese recommendations were
adopted as planks of both political
parties in Colorado.
The legislative committee of the
Colorado Education association
has drafted bills meeting the above
recommendations which will be
presented to the legislature when
it meets in 1921. Since these bills
have already been adopted by both
political parties of the state, they
will be presented to the candidates
nominated ia the primaries for
their approval. All teachers of
the state and others interested in
education are to join in this move
ment, which has been SO strongly
endorsed by all newspapers and
magazines-the teachers salary
movement.
The state of Colorado has been
divided into sections to carry on
this work and captains have been
appointed to direct the work in
each. Idaho Springs is in the
Jefferson Gilpin-C Clear Greek coun-
ties district The captain of this
district is Superintendent Chas.
E. Greene Of Idaho Springs. He
will be assisted by committees
appointed in the various counties
represented.
The legislation to be presented
will follow the sentiment indicated
below:
/. Making the minimum salary
for teachers 500 month.
2. Making the county, by a tax
not to exceed five mills, pay each
school district 500 month for
each teacher employed (not to
exceed one teacher for every forty |
pupils on the school census) If
any district wants to or must pay
more than 500 month, or wants
more than one teacher for forty |
pupils on the census, that district
must pay the rest by local taxation.
8. Teachers who are normal
school graduates will receive a
minimum salary of $1,000 a year,
with an increase of $120 year for
four years. Teachers with an A.
B. degree will receive $500 year
more.
4. The law now provides that

SELECT SEED CORN BEFORE
 GATHERING

That the movement to improve the cannot be over estimated, is the opin- ion of H K. Thatcher, District Farm Demonstration Agent for north cen tral Arkansas. Good seed that will show high percentage of germina- tion and produce strong vigorous plants that are also high yielders, us- ually means a good profit to the sower whereas, poor seed results in a loss.
 Now is the time for corn growers to begin thinking about seed corn for next years planting, declares. MT. Thatcher. To be sure it is yet too ear ly to gather this corn for any purpose but if seed corn is to be properly se- lected it should be gathered from the stalk in the field.
 In selecting corn for seed many things must be considered besides the actual kernals on the cob. First, the whole general section of the field from which the seed corn is to be gathered must be strong and vigorous indicating a good yield. Second, the stalk should be carefully examined, using care to Select stalk that is strong and we'll braced with roots. The stalk should have short joints and therefore plenty of leaves. The leaves themselves should be long and broad and the tassel should show no deform- ity. Third, the surrounding stalks should be carefully noted, for no bar ren stalks should be in the vicinity of the ear to be selected for seed. Fourth the size of the ear and it's position on the stalk should be noted carefully. Good corn growers prefer to select medium sized ear that hangs tip down when ripe about four feet from the ground.
 All these points can and should be noted in a general way at this time of the year. Going through the corn field at this time of the season and tying little string on the ear that shows promise of being a good selec- tion for seed is a good practice.
