iron there is IN a human being. We
read often that such and such a person
needs iron; what does it mean "A
we'll known medical authority says
that there is enough iron in a man
weighing $50 pounds to make four
10penny nails. This same authority
has this to say of other constituents
of such d man: HE contains the
constituents of 1900 eggs: there is
enough gas in him to make 3,649 cubic
feet; his fat would make rs candles
and a good-sized cake of soap. His
phosphate content would make 1904
boxes of matches; there is enough
hydrogen in him to fill balloon to
carry him TO the clouds. The other
constituents of this man would equal
six teaspoonfuls of salt, a bowl OF
sugar and 10 gallons of water"

MORE USE FOR CORN
IS NEEDED INVENTION

A substantial development OF new
uses for corn would give tho farmers
an independent cash market for their
grain and would tend to make price
manipulation at tho primary markets
moro difficult.
A banker farmer writes;
In view of the big corn crop, past
and prospective, 1t seems to me we
should make an effort to find outlets
for tho crop other than marketing and
feeding. Whilo there are many uses
Tor corn, few people know of them.
One way would he to encourage tho
use of corn bread. hominy. etc. Corn

ing grown. The length OF the proposed
ditch would be seventeen miles. The
Lake Meredith reservoir site, as 1t
stands at present with no further de-
velopement, will store $4,000 acre feet
OF water. The construction Of thirty
foot dam running for some distance
cast and west, would make possible
the storage of ono half million acre
feet of water.
Many inquiries arc being received
daily from those who desire to secure
land at u reasonable figure, which can
be developed. 1t Is proposed at present
to store enough flood water to irrigate
$4,000 acres north OF La Junta and Las
Animas. The state land board has been
consulted. and has agreed to sell 10000
ures.
Representatives of the various local
tiles interested expect to visit Pueblo,
and endeavor to work In conjunction
with those who are making flood pre-
vcntion plans for the Upper Valley.
Investigation during the past ten
years, proves that an average of 220,-
900 acre feet OF water goes to waste
annually. exclusive of the 1921 food.
This could all be saved II n ditch large
enough to handle the water when II
came would be built. The project
would interfere in no way with any of
the plans. Pueblo is making to prevent
floods. and that city would be benc-
fitted by the increase in agricultural
output, as well as the cities below.

INDUSTRY OF POULTRY
MAKES GOOD EARNINGS

A local expedition of Canon City peo-
pie one day last week explored . num-
Der of well outfitted poultry yards
and made observations and derived ex-
perience. The Record afterward re-
marked: - u
The raising Of poultry in the Canon
City district is the coming. thing. Re-
cent surveys made thru the means OF
the poultry tour have proven that
poultry can be raised easily. econom-
ically and at good profit in this
locality. Some of the best money made
in this district the past year was
earned by poultry raisers. One of the
pioneers. and one who was among tho
very first to demonstrate the success
OF raising poultry both for consumption
and egg production. is at the present
time shipping out n case OF eggs day
from his ranch, and eggs are selling
at mighty good price ut present.
The Fremont County Poultry asso-
citation and its members have done
much to foster an interest in the rails
ing of poultry. The members. many of
them. have proven the possibilities OF
the industry and tho results obtained
thru the organization snow conclusive
ly what organized effort can do.
