HOW THE GARBAGE QUESTION
OF PUEBLO IS HANDLED

There are few Pueblo housewives
who realize that the city of Pueblo
kindly makes arrangements for the
disposal of their household garbage,
free of charge.
Yet every day. usually before tho
average household has stirred to ac-
tivity, a long steel covered tank-like
wagon draws up to Mrs. Pueblo House
wife's back door and takes away sarb-
age that is supposed to have been left
in a neatly covered tin receptacle near
the alley.
In order to simplify the removal of
the garbage, and food waste matters,
DR. w. r. Buck, city physician and
head of the Pueblo health department
has divided the city OF Pueblo into
twelve districts.
Each Of these districts arc allotted
TO farmers about Pueblo who desire
tho garbage for hog feed. They havo
agreed to haul the garbage free of
charge If the city will agree to permit
them to remove it without charge.
Then came the matter of the busi-
ness districts. where food waste from
the restaurants was many times great
cr than food wastes from the residen-
tial districts. So, the district between
Union depot and Eighth street and a
nuo and Main street, was termed the
open district with a permit that any.
or all. hoE-raisers, who desired to
haul away the garbage might do so.
All Of this leads to no small amount

Bernice Fare Will
Remain in Pueblo

Bernice Fare, the 1s-year-old girl
who sheltered Mrs. Irene Griggs in
recent mystery affair, will remain in
Pueblo. She has been made ward of
the Sunshine Rescue Mission, and for
the present will remain in the employ
of Mrs C. \. DeNio; later, Bob Nor
man, superintendent of the Mission,
plans to send her to business college
and otherwise prepare her to care for
herself in we'll paying position. Nor
man has full confidence in the girls
character and ability, and holds high
hopes for her. An aunt in Denver has
demanded that the girl be returned to
her but Norman declares that this re-
guest will be denied.
Norman learned that the girl was
over Is years of age, and hence could
not be made a ward of the juvenile
court and has applied to Judge Frank
G. Mirick. of the Pueblo juvenile court,
to have Miss Fare made a ward of
the mission. The judge declares that
the girls aunt in Denver or other rel
atives except her mother, cannot re-
move her from Normans protection
The mother, it is understood is now in
the Oklahoma oil fields, and has not
had charge of her daughter for some
time.
The girl states that she ran away
from a cheap rooming house in Denver
because she did not like the surround
ings of her life there. She formerly
worked at a confectionery in that city.

And that is true. The state board
of capitol managers, by reason OF it's
efficient and good work. is the most
powerful political organization in Colo
RADIO Its members work for nothing.
Very few of the new men know this
and they think 1t will give them noto-
riety to try to abolish the board. 1t
usually gives them oblivion.

OF bartering among the hog growers
and the restaurant men. Some restaur-
ants recognize a means of beneficial
revenue from their garbage supplies
and have asked good prices from the
hog-men for the privilege of hauling
away the waste matter.
Wednesday morning a number of the
hog g-growers who have agreed to haul
garbage from the city limits were
called to the health offices for a con-
ference when it was planned that bet
ter arrangements must be made for the
removal of garbage during the summer
months. Some sort of arrangements
will also be made within the open dis
trict so that all hog raisers will be
given a chance to obtain large supplies
of hog food.
