FEEDING PIGEONS IN WINTER
Failure to Provide Proper Kind and
Quantity Of Grain in Winter
Causes Falling Off.

Neglect in feeding the right kind
and amount of grain TO pigeons in cold
weather is often the cause Of the
marked falling off in the production
of squads in winter. More time and
effort is required to feed and manage
pigeons at this time of the year, but
the owner is well paid for the extra
work.

DEATH LIST IS
PLACED At ESQ
Two More Reservoirs Break
at Pueblo City
SITUATION VERY SERIOUS
Food And Drinking Water Are Both
Scarce, But Sanitation Presents
Most Serious Prob

Pueblo, Col.-Three times during the
past 4S hours the water of the
Arkansas River, breaking from their
course, have inundated the greater
part of this city, with the resultant
loss of probably not less than 250 lives
and property damage estimated at $f0.
0OO, 900. To the first food of Friday
night and Saturday morning this loss
of life and damaged property is for
the most part due. The second and
third floods of Sunday morning and
afternoon, due to the breaking of the
Skagway and Shafer dams, found lit
tie of value not already ruined by the
waters and were looked upon with con.
Germ only because they hindered rescue
and reconstruction work.
A downpour of rain, amounting al.
most to a cloudburst, again was falling
at 9 o'clock. Whether or not the rain
followed the course of the Arkansas
River above Pueblo could not be
learned because of the darkness. If
it did, undoubtedly another rapid rise
in the river is probable.
The Shafer dam, which is 10 miles
due north of Florence, went out at
1:3O o'clock Sunday morning. The
Skagway dam, which is six miles
further up Beaver Creek. went out at
10 o'clock. 1t was the loosing OF the
waters held by the Skagway dam
which caused the Shafer dam to break.
Shafer dam held the waters of Lake
Macneill, which was built by Colorado
Springs capitalists to furnish irriga-
ton water for Beaver Park.
Shagway dam furnished power fo1
the Arkansas Valley Light and Power
Company. This power is used by
Pueblo, Concrete, Portland and Pen
rose.
The destruction of the Lake Mac,
neill dam ruins at S1,000,O0O invest,
ment.
The going out of these two dams
sent tremendous volume of water
rushing down the Arkansas valley to,
ward Pueblo.
Fifteen houses on Beaver Creek, be-
low the Shafer dam, were destroyed
when the waters of Lake Macneill
were loosened, but all the inhabitants
there had been warned and had
reached high ground No loss of life
has been reported in this section from
the breaking of the dam. but there
has been great property damage.
First estimates of the dead, based
upon reports from excited eyewit'
nesses who told of seeing hundreds OF
bodies swept through the streets OF
the city, are considered greatly exag
gerated. While no official count OF
the fatalities has been attempted, it is
stated that the death list will probably
not exceed $50, if that high.
One hundred bodies have been re
covered. but it is feared that Wien
the mud and debris which fills the
streets and buildings in the flooded
area are cleared away more bodies
will be found.
Relief work is progressing under
the direction of Red Cross officials and
Governor Shoup.

BREAD PRICES DROP TENTH
Farmers Are Receiving For Their
Wheat Only Slightly More
Than In Pre-War
DAYS,

Washington.-Return of the scent

tary of Agriculture Wallace announced.
Production costs are approaching
the pre-war rates The question of the
cheaper loaf soon will be directly up
to bakers and grocers, Wallace
warned.
"The average value of the wheat
needed to make 1-poand loaf of
bread now is 7-10 cents" said Wal
lace. "The average retail price of a
1-pound loaf throughout the country
is 10 $40 cents.
Farmers are receiving for their
wheat only slightly more than in pre-.
war days, when bread customarily sold
for 5 cents a loaf. Flour prices are
largely Debated
'The big difficulties in the way of
the Scent loaf now are high freight
rates and high wages. When these
factors are reduced and the labor, cost
of transportation, milling and baking
Debated, there will be no justification
for failure Of the scent loafato reap.

Bread prices at retail have been re-
duced just 10 per cent. throughout the
country in the last six months, accord.
ing to the price data Of the Labor De-
partment. In the same period the cost
Of barrel of -four at the mill has been
reduced from 1920 to So barrel OF
about 13 per cent.
Retail and wholesale bakers thus
are getting practically all their bread
| making materials at prices far below
those Of six months ago. In many cities
master bakers already have Debated
the wages of their employees.
According to the computations of
Secretary Wallace the average retail
bread price throughout the United
States in July, 1920, was II $40 cents
per pound. In the same month the
average cost of wheat needed for one
pound of bread was but 9-1O cents,
