HERE S TO E1GHTY-Two.

Mrs. Ada B. Pratt celebrated her
eighty second birthday last Sunday,
and dinner was given in her honor by
Mr.. and Mrs. l.. R. Pratt at their home
at Cobblehurst. The following poem,
written by her daughter, Mrs. j. C.,
Brown, was read and was greatly en-
joyed by Mrs. Pratt as well as every
one present:
There is dear lady just in her prime,
Born in the year of thirty nine;
Lively and gay as one can be
Before reaching the age of eighty
three.
This fair young lady of eighty-two
Says, to keep young, you mustn't get
blue.
So she looks for laugh and joke
with friend,
And viii give as good as any you send
Her vision of this world is bright and
grand;
She doesn't look with .brooding eyes,
but takes the stand
This world is beautiful, and happiness
to be had
By being cheerful, casting out all that
is sad.
Here's wishing her health for years to
come;
That she may live to be hundred and
then some,
And each succeeding year he free of
care,
Surrounded by friends and happiness
everywhere.

4 NEW KUmUk u
DENVER CUTOFF

COLORADO SPRINGS, Jan. ls.-Ef-
forts of Denver men to have IS 'milcs
of railroad constructed between Lake
George and South Platte, 50 us to il
Vert Colorado Springs to Denver, will
be resisted in Colorado Springs, it is
said. The proposed change will cut
off this city from the traffic between
Denver and Salt Lake City and will
mean that Colorado Springs and Pueblo
viii be passed up literally, by the tray
cling public.
The proposed route is to be over a
stretch of road to be known as the
Lake George cut off. The new link, to
link the Colorado & Southern railroad
at South Platte with the Colorado Mid
land at Lake George, will follow the
Platte river most of the way. Those
who advocate the idea point out that
such a move will mean the saving of
approximately 100 miles of the Colorado
Midland tracks, which will be junked
within the next few months, and would
bring towns on the western slope 116
miles and four hours nearer to Denver
While it is said in that city that
the plan is being pushed by prominent
business men on the western slope, it
is believed by Colorado Springs capt
talists that the idea is really the
scheme of Denver interests to enable
that city to have more direct line
to western points. Such route would
accomplish the purpose OF the Moirat
tunnels, # it could be carried out, but
business men are rather doubtful of
the success of such an undertaking.
Proponents of the scheme point out
That the route proposed would be over
a grade averaging two-thirds of one
per cent, which they say is better
route than the old Colorado Midland
route from Colorado Springs to points
On the western slope. About % years
ago the route picked out for the Lake
George eutof was surveyed and some
grading was done near South Platte,
but that was as far as the work pro
crossed.
With the cutoff in operation, the
route west would be over the Colorado
and Southern from Denver to South
Platte, thence by cutoff to Lake George,
thence by Colorado Midland to Wild
Horse, and Denver and Rio Grand
to points west.
Such route would leave Colorado
Springs by the wayside, and for this
reason business men of tine city will
fight all forts to carry out the plan.

Commissioner T. ]. Ehrhart declared
that the recent rejection Of the high.
way budget for 1921 by Governor
Shoup was based on misunderstand-
ing Of the situation.
Answering the first objection made
by Governor Shoup, Mr.. Ehrhart stat
ed that $780, 900 must be met from the
bond issue, of which only 100000 il
available in 1921, leaving 100000 to
be met in 1929.
In order to secure this amount for
expenditure in 1922, according to Mr..
Ehrhart, project agreements must be
entered into with the federal govern
ment in 1921.
Concerning the second objection of
Governor Shoup, that not sufficient
funds had been set aside for roads, Mr.
Ehrhart stated that larger amount
had been set apart than in any previ-
GUS year-or $4,000 plus $1s6, 5000
to be contributed by the counties, or
100000, or about 25 per cent, of the
receipts to the state road funds.
A resolution was adopted asking the
government to continue road building.
President George Harrington of Pu
eblo appointed legislative committee
con insisting of William Cohe, Sterling;
V. II. johnson, Cheyenne Wells; w. T.

Mount Streetcr, the boom town of the
northwestern part of the state, is now
only a memory The promoting com
pany has gone to the wall, and although
tho coal that made the venture posi-
bic is there still, it is in such remote
location and SO far from a railroad
that the overhead expense made its
mining impracticable. The mine IS
aid to produce some of the best e'a'
in the United States, and biologists say
that the vein, when entirely opened,
will be the largest in the world, sixty
seven feet of solid coal. The last IN
stitution of the once prosperous little
mining town to go under was the bank
as the ranchmen in that section had
considerable deposited in it, which kept
it going. When the management failed
new set of directors was elected, ana
it is possible that the town Will be re

continued. The city will prove a very
prosperous place if the trans -continen'
tai railroad is built through that see

to be eQualled anywhere in the state

ExeslI.nee Need Fear No Rival.

Multitudes Of employees constantly
live In terror of some one who, they
fear, is after their place. They are
suspicious Of office politics, suspicious
that somebody working close behind
them is trying to crowd them out.
What Is the resultf This fear and sus-
picIon ihterferes with their advance
ment to the place above them. In
stead Of looking back and thinking Of
the men after their place they should,
instead look about to the man above
them, and be prepared for an advance
when there Is vacancy. Perfect
yourself In your line Of work and you
need never have any fear Of others

GRAIN FEEDS FOB POULTRY.

OF all grain feeds usually supplied to
farm poultry, corn has been and still
is the most popular. This probably iY
due to its abundance and relative cheap
ness, and because it is the most relished
OF all the grains. Corn is heating and
fattening, and when fed to fowls as tho
only feed fat rather than eggs is the
usual result. 1t should be balanced
with meat, bone, bran, and such feeds
as are rich in heterogeneous matter, in
which corn is deficient. When corn is
fed to laying hens that have oppor-
tunity to take plenty of exercise and
to obtain insects and green feed, more
satisfactory results are likely to be OBJ
tanned. 1t may be fed more freely dur
ing the winter than during the summer.
say poultry specialists of the United
States Department of Agriculture.
Wheat is generally regarded as the
safest grain to be fed alone. 1t is not
quite so fattening as corn, but is too
fatening when fed alone. Wheat can
be supplemented by the same feeds rs
advised to use with corn to increase the
proportion of protein. Wheat contains
a little more protein than corn, about
the same amount of carbohydrates, out
less fat, and on the whole is considered
not so valuable for fattening, but Il
little better for growth. Good grades
of wheat are relatively too high IN
price to be used freely in feeds at the
present time. Wheat screenings OF a
good grade can frequently be purchased
and fed to advantage. of course, there
is always the danger of introducing
weed seed on the farm. Burnt
wheatn seldom can be fed advantage
ously, the difference in price between
this and good wheat being usually too
slight to warrant its use.
Oats, while not so good as corn or
wheat, are necessary for variety. They
contain more indigestible fbre than the
other grains. Hulled oats are relished
by poultry and are excellent for prodpi'
ing eggs, but are usually too expen-
siye. When they can be obtained at
reasonable price in comparison with
other grains they may be fed quite
freely.
Barley does not seem to be relished
by hens, but may be used to give vafi-
ETY. to the grain ration. 1t has Little
more protein than corn and little less
than oats.
Backwheat is quite will liked by
fowls, but is not widely fed. 1t may be
used to vary the ration, but is usually
too high in price to be economical
Buclwheat middlings are rich in PRO
TEN and make good mixture VITA
cornmeal.
Rye is not fed largely, and does not
seem to he much relished by poultry
1t is supposed to cause bowel trouble
when fed freely.

COUNTIES UPPOSE
''oNE-MAN" HIGHWAY

0EN EN-, Jan. 1o.-Empnat1c Q198p-
leoval of the "one-man" state high
way commission bill, introduced in the
general assembly, was voiced by the
Colorado State Association of County
Commissioners at their thirteenth an
nual meeting at the Albany hotel yes
terday, only three Of the 1854 delegates
present voting against the resolution.
The resolution was introduced by
Charles ]. Moynihan of Montrose, i'm
mediately following the welcoming ad-
dress by Governor Shoup. 1t read as
follows:
Whereas, there has been introduced
in the house and senate of the Colorado
legislature bill which has for its pur-
pose the adjustment of the present
state highway commission and substi-
tuting in lieu thereof one-man COM
mission to have charge of the highway
and public road policy of tho state of
Colorado, and, whereas, said law if en-
acted, would destroy the representative
feature of the present law, and, where
as, the dominant influence which
prompted the Voters and taxpayers of
Colorado to recent highway legislation
authorizing extensive bond issues was
the fact that the different highway dis
tricts of the state had representatives
on the state highway commission to
60, hut tn
tricts of funds resulting from said bond
issues, and, whereas, the fundamental
theory of the road. legislation of Colo
RADIO has been to develop the entire
state, be it
Resolved, That we protest against
the passage of said proposed law and
request and urge the representatives
and senators from the different legisla-
tive and senatorial districts of Colora-
do to disapprove the same ,
Robert H Higgins, president of the
Colorado Good Roads Association, who
sought to secure the defeat of the reso-
luton, demanded roll call by coun-
ti.s. Only three votes were recorded
against the resolution.
Representative p. B. Godsman an
nounced that he would introduce in the
assembly today bin amend the pres
ent highway law in three important
particulars One amendment provides
that the county of Denver be separated
from District No. l, which includes the
fifteen counties in the northeast part
of the safe, and that Denver county be
made a separate additional district.
The second amendment gives power
to the majority of the commission to
act, and destroys the present unit sys-
TEN, and gives additional power to the
executive officer of the commission.
Another amendment provides that
the governor name the commissioners
from the six proposed districts from a
list submitted by the highway commits

MENNQN|TES To
FORSAKE CANADA
FOR OLD MEXICO
Advance Party of 1000
Will Leave for Southern
Republic in the Near Fu-
ture: Others to Follow.

Saskatoon, Sask., Nov. 29.-Ihe
much beralded exodus OF old col
ony church Mennonites from west
ern Canada to northern Mexico IS
to become a reality, for arrange
ments have been completed where
by an advance party of 1000 vii
leave the Hague district in the
near future to do pioneer work
on their new holdings. There are
about 80 different sects OF Men
nonites and this is distinct move
mcnt from that proposed by one
section of Mennonites who hav-
purchased land in South America.
An official statement, signed by
Bishop Wall. of the Hague dis
trict, declares: "Our only objection
(to staying in Canada) lies in the
fact that the concession granted
and ratified by the federal govern
ment giving us entire right to con-
duct our schools without molesta-
ton or restriction has now been
repudiated" The original charter
granted by the government was
signed in 1873.
The transfer OF property from
the Mennonites to a Winnipeg land
company is near completion and
under the terms Of the agree
ment all land must be vacated by
December /, 1922. The holdings
of tho Mennonites in the Hague
district comprise $1,000 acres.
This deal is also entirely indie
pendent OF the Mennonite colonies
Of Swift Current and Manitoba, al
though these people have ALREADY
contracted for the purchase OF
land in northern Mexico. When
the trek of old colony church sect
has been completed a total of H.
900 of these people will have left
Canada for Mexico. Another H.
600 will be affected by the move
to South America, but, 1T was
pointed out, they are not members
of the old colony church.
1t is estimated that the old col
ony church members leaving the
west will take with them a total
Of some $14,000,000 in cash, OF
about $4,000 net cash per family
on the average.
