ASK FOR A QUARTER
OUNCE OF FREEZONE
Any Corn Will Dry Up And Lift Out
Says A Cincinnati

Authority
Let folks step on your feet here
after; wear shoes size smaller il
you like, for eorns will never again
send electric sparks Of pain through
you according 10 this authority.
He says that a few drops Of a
drug called freezone. applied direct
ly upon a tender, aching corn, in
stantly relieves soreness and soon
the entire corn, root and all. lifts
cut without pain.
This drug is sticky but dries at
once and is said to simply shrivel
up the corn without inf1aming or
even irritating the surrounding tis-
sue.
1t is claimed that a quarter OF an
ounce obtained at any drug store
will cost very little but is sufficient
to remove every hard or soft corn or
callus from ones feet. Cut this out

Colorado Year Book

The Colorado Year Book for 1920.
issued by the STATE Immigration De
partment, is now being distributed.
The volume this year contains 24s
pages. or 20 pages more than the 1919
edition. 1t contains 81 pages OF sta
tistieal information on various sub
jects, and is the most complete com
pendium OF information upon the re-
sources and development Of Colorado
ever issued by any state department.
The principal Improvement over the
1919 Year Book is to be found in the
handling of agricultural statistics by
counties, all of which is made possible
by the law providing for the collection
of agricultural statistics by county as
SCISSORS. This law went into effect in
1919, and some Of the data collected
by assessors for that year were in
eluded in the 1919 volume. This year,
however, it has been possible to pub
lish completed reports on the acreage
of all important crops as turned In by
county assessors for 1919, as well as
the production by counties for most
of the principal crops and table
showing the production of all crops
grown in the state. Partial reports
of assessors on acreage for 1920 also
are published, complete reports from
all counties having not been received
at the time the book went to press
The volume also contains a post
office directory for the state, a di-
rectory Of commercial clubs, a list of
officers of incorporated cities and
towns, a table showing the railroad
distances of importan places in the
state from Denver and the location
and altitude OF the principal mountain
peaks, mountain passes, lakes and res
ervoirs. The descriptive matter relat-
ing to the several counties in the state,
which was published in the two pre-
vious editions Of this volume, has been
revised and brought down to date.

TO THE PEOPLE OF LAMAR AND
VICINITY.

The people of this community have
responded in such manner to our
former notice as to lead us to hope
that the dairy industry may be de-
veloped here to such an extent as to
justify the permanent operation Of our
plant. II the renewed interest and
activity which now seems to exist, con-
tinues, satisfactory results to us and
to the community should be accom-
plished. We are accepting the present
situation as an indication of better
conditions in the future. We want a
plant in Colorado and will continue to
operate our plant at Lamar SO long
as we have reasonable assurance OF
production In the reasonably near fu-
ture sufficient to justify it. Whether
that prospect continues or fails. de-
pends primarily ON the community.
We are anxious, however, to rend-

CARNIVAL STOPPED
POole's Shows and Eagles Fail to Get
a Square Deal

The question of whether carnival
shows are n good or bad thing for
u town is an open one and every citi-
zen has a right to his opinion, and
the majority whether for or against
them has right to enforce its views.
But the decision should be public and
every citizen should be treated on an
exact equality. This is only fair play
and is the only policy under which any
sort of government can be long main
tanned.
The Workman shows were here
few weeks ago and showed under the
auspices Of the American Legion and
had q splendid weeks run which net
ted the local post of the Legion a good
sum. The local Eagles then advertis-
ed the Poole Shows for last week and
we're stopped and interfeHed with In
such q way that they only had two
real nights run. and the Eagles lost
money on the proposition. This is 9
plain statement Of the facts and it is
only justice to add that the boys Of
the American Legion were In no wsys
to blame.
The Eagles are all citizens Of Lamar
or the surrounding territory. most Of
them taxpayers here. and are attempt
ing to raise funds to build home
that will be credit to our city. They
are entitled to the same treatment As
all other citizens. II nobody is to be
allowed to run q carnival there is no
kick coming. II. however. anybody Is
allowed to run one the Eagles have an
equal right with all others and this
they certainly did not get last week as
there had been several carniyals here
this season.
The Poole Shows have one OF the
cleanest carnival outfits that ever
came to the city and the Eagles per
sonally guaranteed that no rough stun
should be pulled on the grounds. The
management liked the town in spite OF
the deal they got and signed q coz
tract for e return engagement next
year.

HELVETlA TO REMAIN
Revival Of Interest in the Dairy Indus
! Try III County Decides Company.

The card of te Helvetia Mix Con-
densing Co. in another column speaks
for itself. The revived interest in the
dairy industry due to the recent agi-
tation and to the changing of condi-
lions generally back to a normal basis
has decided the company that the in
dustry can be placed on q profitable
basis here, and they will continue to
operate the condensery. There should
be no let up, however, in the cam
paign to secure the largest possible
development of the industry and en-
couragement to those who are organ
izing to improve the breed Of dairy
animals in this section as there is still
long stretch ahead between an en-
couraging improvement and a real
substantial business basis. The efforts
of neighboring towns to increase their
milk product should be assisted by our
city as the local plant will be able to
take care of far more than this sec
ton will produce for years to come.
The establishing of a milk station at
Holly promises to add many hundred
cows to the already heavy production
there and will be Of material assist
ance in maintaining the condensery AS
well as highly profitable to the farm
ers of that section. The Helvetia conf
pany is doing its part, paying the
highest price in the state for milk. and
increasing its field force go as to be
in position to furnish advice and help
to all farmers who are starting in the
business.

GOT THE MEN
Two Kansas Men Try Forgery Game
Here But Land in Jail.

Two Kansas homesteaders living
of Elkhart came to Lamar about two
weeks ago anl bought several bills of
goods and paid for same in checks
of liberal size on the Stonington bank
signed by Jim Smith, which one OF
them claimed was his name. 1t was
found few days later that they were
forgeries and that the pair had play
ed the same game on C. f. Wheeler
of Villas. One of the checks was for
$3.50 and had been given to C. Z.
Adams in exchange for fine rug and
several dollars in cash.
AS soon as it was discovered that
the check was forgery, Bob Adams
and John A. Simpson started south to
find the men, and as they had nothing
to go by but the name Jim Smith it
required several days good hard work
to finally locate the one giving that
name. He proved to be Herman Nit
chell living south of Elkhart and was
brought to Jail here After some
sweating he decided it best to make
n clean breast of it and told the whole
story. Sheriff Downing and J. A.
Simpson and C. P. Adams then took
Mitchell back and he located the other
man, Frank Timmins. down near the
Oklahoma line and they got the rug
and several pieces of furniture obtain
ed from the Wheeler store at Villas.
They brought both men TO Lamar and
they are now in jail.

latter being IN industry in which our
farmers except few gardeners re
fuse to indulge.
The long lead which Prowers coun-
ty has in alfalfa means steady runs
the year round for its dozen alfalfa
meal mills. which is twice as many as
the rest Of the valley combined has.
The big acreage Of wheat raised is not
yet sufficient by a wide margin for
the big flour mill located here and
which has u capacity greater than all
the other mills Of the valley combined.
A little time spent over these fig
ures by an observing investor will show
the tremendous room for development
of a greater and larger growth in both
population and Industries than any
other agricultural county in the state.
These statistics show that irrigated
farm lands can be purchased cheaper
in Prow-rs county than in any other
regular irrigated section of the state
or of the west for that matter.
The conclusion anyone who studies
these figures must reach is that with
in few years ProweIs county must
OF necessity be the most populous
county of the lower Arkansas valley
and Lamar as its capital city will be
a city of fifteen to twenty thousand
people.
