An Improvement association has
been organized and the meetings are
attended by practically all the ladies
of the community and is doing eX-
cellent work for the school in helping
to raise money for furnishings and
other things needed in the school but
greater than even these things is the
fine community spirit of the men,
bers. I attended a meeting of the
association on Tuesday at the school
house and the large number present
and the interest taken in the CON-
munity work was really inspiring and
delightful. Miss Ruth Chapman is
president and Mrs. j. L. Bowers is
the treasurer of the association.

Mr.. J. E. Summer very kindly Of
fered to take me on this trip and the
going was good. The roads are in
much better condition than expected
to find them. We drove in by jolly
street and made a pop call on Mr..
Koon. He says the attendance here
has kept up remarkably we'll. We
had dinner with Mrs, j. P. Settler at
Pomaria and there is no wonder why
so many travelling men make it con-
venient to takef dinner at this place.
The dinner. was 6Ae and the price
reasonable. In fact just about half
what you pay elsewhere at many ho-
tells for not near So good meal.

Will Be Ab.et,t Saturday


I will not be ir2 the office on Sat-
urday. 1 have arDfappointment with
the county superintendent Of educa-
tion of Laurens county to go over
with him the financial condition of
Jine schools so that. we may have an
understanding as ITO how the funds
are to be disbursed. It is the only
day that l can getnaway. l hope my
absence will not Inconvenience any
one having business with the office.
Next Tuesday I will : be at Little
Mountain to meat the trustees of
that school and the trustees of the
Red Knoll school.
The school money is getting low
but hope we will soon be able to get
our state aid and that will make cv-
erything move we'll. l notice the SEN
ate has increased the appropriation
for the schools from where il was
left by the house and / have no doubt
the house will agree % the increase
because this is one place where the
cut should not be made for if it
should be the legislature will not be
keeping faith with the schools.
Many districts in this county and
all over the state voted the special
tax on the promise Of the state that
if they did so the legislature would
provide a seven months term and if
the legislature should now fail to pro-
vide the money the districts would be
in bad fix financially. At any rate
the high school and the rural graded
school aid will be available as soon as
the legislature adjourns and also the
equalizing fund. And then since the
payment of taxes has been extended
many people who have not paid will
not do so until the nearer the time
when the extension expires. And yet
we have done we'll in this county.
We have been able to pay the teach
ers promptly in most of the schools,
in fact in all of them until just the
last month where they are depending
largely on the guarantee of the legis-
lature. E. H. A.

NELSON ADVISES BRANDING FOXES
 FOR PROTECTION
Organized Robbery Indicated by Complaints -Shoup
 Takes Up the Matter.

Branding and registration of foxes of checking depredations on their stock by thieves is recommended by Dr. E. w Nelson, chief of the Bio logical Survey, in a letter recently received from him by United States Attorney Shoup. Mir. Shoup said that he had taken the matter up with the Biological Survey as the re- suit of numerous complaints received by him from fox ranchers of their animals being stolen.
 Organized Thievery Exists
 "It seems apparent from the com plaints received at this office that organized robbery of the fox islands is being carried out at least fairly successfully" said MT. Shoup. We have done what we could but under the circumstances we are naturally unable to protect all the islands on which fox farming is conducted and to do so would require good sized fleet of patrol vessels which we do not possess,
 "As the Alaskan fox farmers do not carry out system of branding their animals even where we might think we have located stolen ami mals, such animals being without marks of identification, there is no means of verifying out suspicious. In fact, it is practically impossible to make case unless the thief should be caught in the very act of robbery"
 Marking System Explained
 In his letter to MT. Shoup Dr. Nel- son explained briefly the system which he believes will prove an aid in checking robbery of fox farms He recommends the marking of young foxes by tatooing the ear This meth cd. he said, is commonly used by the Canadian government inspectors on Prince Edward Island, whose duty it is to inspect foxes and pass them for registration. The tatooing is per formed by an instrument which is made by placing very fine needles in a design which forms the brand. The needles are dipped into ink and then pressed on the ear of the ami mals. Many firms, including sev eral on the Pacific CoaSt, manufac- ture the above instrument
 To Make It Legal
 Dr. Nelson has prepared an Al aska game bill for introduction in Congress within the near future and said that he would include marking and registration clauses in that measure. It is hoped, he said, to get Congress to act favorably on the measure at it's regular winter ses- sion.

Federal Judge A. B. Anderson, of Indianapolis, who ordered the issuance of an injunction directed at stopping efforts of the United Mine Workers of America from organizing the Williamson coal field in West Virginia. The Court decided that the miners efforts to unionize West Virginia were in furtherance of a conspiracy to shut off competition of the non union mined coal.

COLORADO RUBBER

Manufacture of rubber 10 again to
be attempted. this time by f. w.
Kirk who with his wife has arrived
at Buena Vista from California and
found suitable site for a mill. 1t is
stated that $4,000 is necessary and
that half of this sum is on hand. The
town is to furnish the land and the
water and will exempt the factory
from special taxes for a period of
years. 1t must be in operation by a
certain date. A number of other peo-
pie from California are to come.
There is more than the usual reason
to encourage the success of this en-
terprise, it being desirable to do some
thing to put a limit on the growth of
the rubber plant. There are many
acres of it in the foot hills here in
Pueblo county taking possession of
the land and running out the grass the
cattle need.
