investment of $4,000 per year for
period of six years will yield sufficient
revenue to maintain family Of five
in comfort.
Needless to say, that apart from
its business aspect, as a sound invest
ment, there is great sentimental and
idealistic side to this work, as the
Jewish people must make the best Of
the great opportunity offered to them
to rebuild and re-equip the ancient
home of Israel. At the present time
when there are millions of homeless
Jews yearning to 60 to Palestine
many Jews seeing this opportunity
the work of providential guide.
It is due to all these considerations
that the American Zion Common
wealth has within comparatively
short time enlisted fore than forty
six hundred members, who subscrib-
ed to over four million dollars.
The Commonwealth has already
done some excellent work in Palestine.
1t founded the colony Of Balfouria,
which has proved fine success in
many respects chiefly by introducing
agricultural machinery into Palestine
which is bound to have a great benev-
client influence upon the future devel-
opment Of agriculture and garden
plantations in that country. It has
also acquired large stretches Of land
which will be put under development
Immediately. 1t maintains an office
in Palestine and two Of its directors
now proceeding to Palestine to pur-
chase land which is now available in
large quantities. Sir Herbert Samuels
the Jewish governor Of Palestine
under the British mandate, has repeat
edy urged the necessity and appealed
to American Jews to buy land, as
there is undoubtedly danger Of nom
Jews buying up the soil for specula-
ton ard for colonies.
Mr.. P M. Raskin, who is famous
English poet and writer and brilliant
speaker and who is known as a lead
ing figure in the Zionist movement
has done self-sacrificing and excellent
work on behalf Of the Commonwealth.
He will remain here for a few days
and It is hoped that some very good
work will be achieved here for the
great cause Of the rebuilding Of the
land Of Israel.

Well-Known Poet Visits Fort Worth.
The wel-known Jewish poet, Mr.. P.
M. Raskin, who is touring the south
in the interests of the American Zion
Commonwealth, is now in Fort Worth
and will address several meetings
here.
The problem Of building up Pales-
tine has many fascinating aspects.
But one Of the most interesting fac
tors in the rebuilding of the land of
ancoent Israel, is the American Zion
Commonwealth, corporation which
has mIde remarkable progress during
the last eighteen months. This cor
poration has for its object no smaller
task than the redeeming Of the en-
tire soil Of Palestine. One recalls in
this connection, that at the time of the
declaration Of independence of Greece,
a similar corporation which had
for its object the buying out of the
soil from the foreign population who
at that time inhabited the country,
met with similar success.
The Zion Commonwealth has three
main objects: /. To redeem the soil
from the Arab large landowners, who,
under the Turkish regime kept large
tracts Of land, exploiting to the ut
most native labor; 2. The enabling Of
Jew who otherwise would be unable
to acquire land in Palestine-to pur-
chase piece Of land or an estate in
Palestine and pay for II in small and
easy installments and under most ia
vorable conditions; and 3. To provide
immediate employment for Jewish
pioneers who now come from eastern
Europe.
The Zion Commonwealth is headed
by Judge Bernard A. Rosenblatt and
by the most prominent Jews and Zion
lists Of America, and Is affiliated with
the Zionist Organization Of America.
The safety Of the investment Is be-
yond doubt. II furthermore offers an
exceptional opportunity for helping
in the upbuilding Of the land without
any possibility Of loss or even Of risk
to the investor, as an investment In
land In Palestine must be regarded as
sound and profitable. II stands to rea-
son that land in country which is
bound to develop rapidly and whose
population is bound to increase ten
fold within the next few years, will be
greatly enhanced in value, so that a
member securing ten or twenty or fif-
ty acres Of land now through such a
responsible and trustworthy corpora
ton, will have by the time he paid out
for his land an estate Of far greater
value than his actual investment. II
must be taken into consideration
that during the six years that men,
Der Is paying for his land, the estate
Is meanwhile worked, cultivated

Boulder, Aug. 30.-After an interval
of five years Bienzi Dickens, of Long
mont and California, again is to face

LOSSES OF LAST YEAR
STOP LAMB FEEDING

Fort Collins, Aug. 29.-Lamb feed
ing in northern Colorado this winter
apparently will be undertaken only on
small scale by few feeders, and the
industry which last year brought the
feeders millions of dollars in loss may
almost die out through the attempt of
the feeders to prevent repetition of
their losses. The losses last year, the
present money stringency and the high
price of feeder lambs combine to cause
the situation which is facing tho feed
ers now. At this time OF the year in
normal times more than half, and some
years nearly all Of the lambs have
been bought and brought into this Sec
ton. AT present, this season, prac-
tically no lambs have been bought.

ALL RECORDS BROKEN
AT ROCKY FORD FAIR

Rocky Ford, Aug. 30.-All attend
ance records were broken at the Rocky
Ford fair today. The day is being
devoted to visiting exhibits and stock
judging. The agricultural exhibits far
surpass those of former years, both in
quality and number.
A new feature this year is display
ing as n district instead of individuals.
No article displayed was raised espe-
cially for exhibition, but has been Sc
lected from field crops. The corn ex-
hibits this year are unusually good,
many Of them surprising the product
of eastern states.
G. E. Smith, county agent at Trini-
dad, is in charge of the Judging of the
agricultural products.
Professor Bray of the State Agri-
cultural school of Fort Collins is
Judging the live stock. The stock ex-
hibits are the best shown here in the
past ten years, principally Herefords,
Shorthorns and Holsteins. The Ameri-
can Beet Sugar company is big ex-
hibitor in Herefords and Holsteins.

NEW AUTO FUEL WILL

Rome, Aug. 30.-Through the inven-
ton of gas generating mixture com

motors can be reduced one-half, &C.
cording to the claims of Engineer
Sesti, who after exhaustive experiments
under the auspices Of the Italian gov.

The use of the new gas generating

of special kind of carburetor, which
Signor Sesti has evolved.
The experiments have been in prog

NEW SCIENCES AID
IN DETECTING CRIME

Paris, Aug. 25.-Poroscopy and
graphometry are two new "sciences
intended to make the way of the trans
gressor harder than it is. Porossopy
is the science of measuring the pores
of the body. Graphometry is the sci
ence Of form and relative proportion
of letters in handwriting.
DR.. Edmond Iocard, head of the
Lyons police laboratory of Identified
ton, has elaborated these new meth
DDS of crime detection to a point where
the results have been accepted in the
Lyons courts and are said to have been
proved effective.
In poroscopy, Dr.. Locard holds the
number, form and position of body
pores remain the same throughout life.
The impression of the pores, in DR..
Locard s system is colored by chemical
vapors of very fine powders so they
may be photographed under micro
scope.
DR.. Locard tells of several successful
prosecutions supported by his new sci
ences. In one case burglar wore
gloves, but left an impression of a
small surface of his forearm. That

HEAVY RAINS HELP CROPS
IN DRY FARMING DISTRICTS

Canon City, Aug. 31.-While recent
rains have wrought damage to some
parts Of the western slope other Sec
tions are rejoicing in the greatest
crops ever known, notably in the dry
farming sections of Fremont and ad-
joining counties. In the Oak Creek
country, up among the Greenhorn
mountains, the potatoes literally are
bursting from the ground, while the
crops of grain and hay are growing as
never before. All over the grazing re-
gions of the county the grasses are
luxuriant and plentiful enough to sup
port many times the herds now graz
ing thereon. The heavy rains of the
past few days in the Beaver Park
country came just when needed to save
the crops of that section, which has
been without an irrigation system
since June 3.

TROUBLES OF HIS OWN

Hays, all over little poem by Dr.. G.
J. Jose, postmaster at Undertook,
Pike county, Illinois, who calls himself
a first class fourth class postmaster.
This is the poem he sent to Postmaster
General Hays:

Gould see my sweet and charming
ways,
And how polite and nice am
When some guy comes to mail ham.
How sweetly to those nuts l smile
When they are asking all the while,
For stuff they've bought of Sears
Roebuck,
To whom they sent one lonesome buck
They're looking for a bale of tripe
A kiddy-kar or meerschaum pipe;
And round the office they will stick
Till I get peeved and durn near sick
But yet, have to smile and say,
"Your package did not come today
And then they draw an ugly sigh
AS if to say, 81 think you lie.'
I spread them one elastic grin
And say, A" Twill soon be comm in
If Mister Hays would come and see
The way some folks are treating me.
I know full well that he would sob,
And he would let me keep my job.
He'd say, "Dear Doc, if you'll STAY
here
I'll boost your pay two beans PEI

DESTRUCTIVE BUTTER RULING

which would have been almost suicidal

BODY OF MAN FOUND
WRAPPED IN BURLAP

Pueblo, Aug. 3O.-The body of an
unidentified man, shot through the
head and the body, was discovered
wrapped in gunny sack near Vine
land early this morning. While no
real clue has been uncovered tonight,
police are of the opinion that the dead
man was tourist who gave his muir
derer q ride and lost his life and auto
mobile as result of his kindness.
This theory probably is given
strength through the similarity to the
murder of Elton C. Parks of Pueblo
and Will Hunter of Rye, who were
killed by the Bosko brothers about a
year ago.
Another theory held by the police is
that the man may have been killed by
the same person who shot Charles
Quicker Of Sedalia last Friday after
Quicker had given him ride.
The description of the dead man
tallies with that of ]. J. Knight
wealthy Dallas, Texas, oil man, who
disappeared from Phoenix, Ariz., a few
weeks ago, according to Geographic re
ports. Knight has not been seen since
he was noticed driving an automobile
across the desert west Of Phoenix.
One small clue was obtained wher

was found on the inside sleeve of tn,

is the mark of dry cleaner. This and
the fact that the man Is hat bore tn,
mark Of Pawnee, Okla, firm will LEAF

suit in identifying the murdered man
it is believed.
Persons living in the vicinity Of the
spot where the body was found declare
that they heard two shots about 1C
O'Clock last night. Shortly after this
an automobile was seen speeding from
the direction in which the shots were
heard. No money was in the pockets
but the mans watch had not been
taken.
