India Mass
Pageant at
M. E. Church

The India Mass Movement pageant
at the First Methodist Episcopal
church Monday night was fairly well
attended considering the unfavorable
character of the weather and the
handicap of influenza now existing in
the community.
The pageant was directed by Rev.
Melville Osborne and Rev. Carl Her.
mann, both of whom are familiar with
conditions in India by reason of long
residence in that country, and an in
innate understanding of the native
people. They were assisted in the
staging of the pageant by Rev. Guy E.
Konkel, who took a prominent part in
the dialogue, and by company of
boys and girls, most of them high
school students.
The pageant was, in reality, sort
of religious play designed to show the
yearnings of the people of India for
the blessings of Christianity, and of
the necessity of Christian missionaries
to lead them from ignorance and su-
prostitution into the light of modern
civilization All of the participants
| in the pageant was dressed in the
!
the enactment of the program was one
of the utmost interest to all privileged
4 to witness it.
| The singing of the Raja Yisu Aya
song, which is said to be exerting a
great influence in the christianiZation
of India, by the company in the YER
nacular tongue of the people of India,
was very effective and the air was
hummed by the audience at the re
quest of the diretcor
! The scene depicted in the pageant
was grouped, in imagination, about
one of the native villages, which as
made an appeal through its native
magistrate, or mayor, to the mission
ary superintendent in that district for
Christian teachers to bring to its peo'
pie the gospel of Christ When the
magistrate finally learns that the
great Centenary campaign of the
Methodist Episcopal church in Amer
( lea for money for foreign evangelical
/ tion has been a success and that
funds will soon be available from II
to send missionaries to the village
for the conversion of its people,
the JOY of the magistrate knew nc
bounds
All in all, the India Mass Movement
pageant at the First Methodist Episco
pal church here Monday night was
one OF the strongest missionary pleas
ever presented in this community. Its
staging and INSTALLATION were excel
lent. Its purposes and benevolences
were helpful and inspiring.

SAM HOFFMAN-We ought TO have
more and better live stock in this
end OF the valley. Instead of raising
scrub stuff. l am of the opinion that
the farmer will make easier and more
money by going in for registered
breeds. Experience shows that IL
pays.
L. 4. WILLIAMS-When painters
and paperhangers go into so many
houses that are infected with disease
it is wonder that they do not sue
sumb to some of the various pesti-
lence but l myself have seldom heard
OF one that did. think the reason
is that they absorb so much turpen-
tine into their system that they are
made virtually immune.
RALPH M'KINLEY-We made
trip up over the old abandoned road
to Temple canon Sunday in an auto
mobile. 1t was a rough drive because
of the neglected state of the road.
However, think that with but COM
paratively small amount of work by
the convicts this road could be made
very good thoroughfare for tourists
at but a small cost. II certainly
would be big attraction, for we found
Temple canon and the Devils the
ater as weird and isolated as ever.

Ditching With
Dynamite Shown
at Pressy Farm

On Saturday afternoon Messrs. \. ;.
Greensfelder and Griff Owens, rep
resentatives of the Hercules Power
Company, made demonstration of
the methods employed in ditchins
with dynamite in wet and swamping
ground. This demonstration was
held on the farm of the Pressy Fruit
Company. north OF Canon City.
The work was done in a very wet
piece of ground, in which 1t had been
found that nothing could be accom-
plished by means OF hand shoveling,
or any other method, owing to the
water and sticky nature of the soil.
section of ditch about so feet
long was blasted out with one shot,
which consisted of ~ holes, each load
ed with about four cartridges OF dyna.
mite. BY means of blasting ma
chine and electric blasting caps.
which can be all connected in one cir
cult, all of these holes were ired sim
ultaneously and those present saw the
mud lifted high in the air as the
handle of the blasting machine was
pressed down.
When about $50 feet of ditch is
blasted a good channel will be pro
vided to drain this piece OF ground
and reclaim il for agricultural pur-
poses. The only labor required was
that OF punching holes and loading
with dynamite In soft ground such
as this. the holes are easily punched
with a pointed bar. In harder ground
soil augurs are often used.
Mr.. Gardiner. superintendent Of the
Pressey farm. in addition TO compiet-
ing the drainage of his farm by this
method. intends TO use dynamite In
setting out a large number of fruit
trees. II the hole in which the
young tree is planted, is first blasted
with a small amount of dynamite, the
roots are given a better chance to
get a good start. and the progress
made by the tree will be much better
than If planted in an unblasted hole.
Some of these trees on the Pressey
farm are to be set between trees In
an old orchard In this case the blast
ing of the holes for the new trees will
because the blasting. II properly done.
will loosen the soil sufficiently to per.
nit of great circulation for air and
water with beneficial results for the
trees.
Mr. Gardiner has also removed some
of the dead trees and stumps from his
place recently with dynamite.

was DR.. Pierce who afterward moved

mind to place some of his medicines
before tho public, and he put up
what he called bis "Favorite Pro

druggists in every state in the Union.

SELECTING BEST BEEF CALF
Animal Must Have Proper Conforma.
ton, Breed Type and Good Gen.
eraI Appearance.

If the beef calf selected for raising
is to develop into useful, profitable
Individual for breeding purposes, it
must be good calf as well as the
descendant Of good ancestors. Keep
In mind that you are either selecting
a calf for herd lull or for founda-
ton breeding COW. To be classed as
a good calf it must have the proper
form, which is sometimes spoken OF
as type" or CONFORMATION" If you
expect to select calf with these nee
essary requirements, you should be-
come familiar with them. Study pic
lures of famous animals; note their
form. A score card of the. breed you
are most interested in would be USE
full. Learn the different parts Of a
beef animal and the method Of exam
tnation in judging them.
In selecting the calf, first get an
idea of it's general appearance. This
you may do by looking at it from
distance Of from 10 to Is feet, OBJ
serving it's weight or growth accord
ing to age, conformation, quality, con-
dition, body, breed type, and general
disposition. Observe it closely, begin
ming at the head and neck, then fore
quarters, body, and headquarters, in
order named. II bull Is selected, 1t
should not have the appearance Of
heifer or a steer, but the strong, Wig
orous, masculine appearance Of bull
in every detail. If q heifer is selected,
she should have the feminine appear
ance of a good breeding COW rather
than the possible coarseness or rough
ness Of a steer.
Thus observing the calf without put
ing your hands on it, select one that
IS stylish and active. When viewed
from the front it should have short
face, large muzzle, wide forehead.
short neck, and wide, deep chest, in
dicating a strong, vigorous constitution.
When looked at from the side it's back
should be straight and level from top
of shoulders to the tail. 1t should
have deep body and smooth, long

WHY DRUGGISTS RECOMMEND
SWAMP-R00T

For many years druggists have watched
with much interest the remarkable record
maintained by DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root,
the great kidney, liver and bladder medi-
cine.
1t is a physician's prescription.
Swamp.Root is a strengthening medi'
cine. It helps the kidneys, liver and blad'
der do the work nature intended they
should do.
Swamp Root has stood the test of years,
It is sold by all druggists on its merit
and it should help you. No other kidney
medicine has 30 many friends.
Be sure to get Swamp-Root and start
treatment at once.

great preparation send ten cents to Dr.

New Life for
Sick i an
Eatonic Works Magic

II have taken only two boxes Of
Eatonic and feel like a new man. It
has done me more good than anything
else" writes G. o. Frappir.
Eatonic is the modern remedy for
acid stomach, bloating, food repeating
and indigestion. 1t quickly takes up
and carries out the acidity and gas
and enables the stomach to digest the
food naturally. That means not only
relief from pain and discomfort but
you get the full strength from the food
you eat. Big box only costs trifo

headquarters. When viewed from the
rear it should present wide, deep
appearance. While as much width as
possible is desired, it should not be
accompanied with roughness about the
shoulders and the hips or hooks. The
legs should be rather short, stout, and
set wide apart. A calf that stands
high from the ground, cut up in the
flank, and shallow in the heart girth,
has little chance Of developing into a
useful or profitable breeding animal.
After you have found calf with
good general appearance, have some
one hold it so that you can put your
hands on it. This is the best way to
determine what are called "condition"
and Equality" Condition means the
amount Of flesh and fat the, calf has.
Select a calf in good growing condi-
ton, but not excessively fat. The beef
calf for breeding purposes should have
great depth of natural flesh and be
free from roughness or cOarseness In
any way. BY running the open hand
along the back and sides with slight
pressure of the finger tips the amount
and quality of condition may be de-
termined. A calf in proper growing
condition, while not possessing the
depth of flesh of a mature animal.
should have a smooth, even covering
Of firm though not hard flesh along it's
back and sides and over the shoulders.
Quality may be determined by the
eye of the experienced Judge, but the
hand may also be used to advantage.
All the following indicate quality: A
thick coat of hair that feels soft and
silky and looks glossy; loose. pliable
skin that does not seem thick, rough,
or tightly stretched over the body;
and rather short legs that appear to
have strong, clean bones without
roughness or cOarseness.
A calf showing early maturity, as
indicated by the tendency to put on
an even covering of rather firm flesh
Is desirable
. Color is Of little importance as long
as the calf selected has the approved
color of the breed desired. There are,
however, popular shades and color
markings of the different breeds,
which you will learn from further
study of the breed selected.
