Will Plant Garden
on State Reserve
Warden Hadsell viii Embark in Farm
ing Operations on the Reserve. to
Raise Vegetables for Prison.

Warden Frank Hadsell of the state
prison at Rawlins was II visitor here
last week, coming over to inspect the
statc reserve property and more es-
pecially the irrigated section of the
meadow land with Il view to farming IL
tables for the o or more inmates of
the Institution under his charge. Ac-
companied by Senator w. w. Daley.
Representative ii. A. Hunter and a
number of other interested parties. Mr..
iladsell spent Saturday forenoon in go
ing over all parts of the property. and
it is thought likely that he will estab-
fish a convict camp on the property
some time next month where Il dozen or
more of his men will be stationed to
plant and care for the. tract to be cult
waited. This will probably comprise IL
to 20 acres the first year, which nav
be Increased next year if necessary.
In view of the fact that no state ap-
preparation will be available for i'm
provement work OF the states property
this summer, and that whatever work
is accomplished must necessarily be
done by the convicts, it is surmised that
Mr.. Hadsell will be the acting d
%intendent of the entire reserve for the
present year.. which would be a very
satisfactory arrangement so far as To-
cal people are concerned.
No announcements have beer made
as TO what is planned to be lone to the
reserve this season, but it is safe to
predict that the property will at least
be thoroughly cleaned up by Mr.. Had.
sells men and the %unsightly debris
which now litters the grounds removed
which would constitute Il vast improve
mcnt in itself.
According TO Senator Daley. Cover
nor X. ID. Carey and perhaps othe
members of the State Board of CHAR
ties and Reform will be here on a ton
of Inspection on April 9TH. and it /
likely that after this inspection som
announcement will be Forthcoming cor
corning the boards plans for the pres
ent year.

Asked to Plant
Hundred Acres
Sugar Company Said to Have Offered
10 Send a Man to Superintend Gull
ture bf Beets in Platte Valley.

1t is said that n Colorado sugar
company official has agreed that if Il
minimum of LOG acres will be planted
to sugar beets in the valley his year
his company will scnd n MAJ here to
arrange for the planting and culture
under the company's regulations. This
announcement was made by Archie
Anderson at the Cotton ranch on Tues
day afternoon, and he urged all ranch
ers present to grasp the opportunity
to demonstrate what the valley can do
in the raising of beets. He requested
that the acreage which each man would
devote to beet culture be reported at
once to either James Blackhal at En-
campment or Joseph NUM- at Saratoga.
This would indicate that the sugar
manufacturers are in earnest as to Civ
ing this valley a tryout. for they pay
but small attention 10 individual efforts
at beet raising with unreliable seed
and haphazard methods. In all com
munities where factories have been
built it has been the custom for the
companies to try out the soil with their
W seed and with the cultural work
and irrigation superintendent by one of
their own men.
1t is surmised that no trouble ut
all will be experienced in getting 100
acres guaranteed and it is likely that
a much larger acreage could be secured
II necessary.
Local irrigators who desire to be
among the pioneers In the sugar beet
industry of the valley should report at
once to Mr.. NUM- or Mr.. BlackhalI the
acreage of beets they are willing to
plant this year.

DEMURRER TO SUITanot.h1lJ
FILED BY MRS. V0TAW
Denies Letter Written to Justice
Stafford About DR.. Cole Was
Libelous, as Charged

Mrs Carolyn Votaw. sister OF Presi-
dent Harding. today filed in the Dis
trict Supreme Court a demurrer TO the
suit for $4,000 damages filed against
her last June by Or. G. r. Lee Cole
a Washington physician. DIR. Cole
charged libel, and claimed to have
been injured by the contents of let
ter written by Mrs. Notaw to Justice
Wendell Phillips Stafford while the
court was hearing his application to
reopen a divorce proceeding by the
doctor against his wife.
Counsel for the physician sought
contempt rule against Mrs. Votaw at
the time, which was refused by the
court, and then he called the matter to
the attention of the President before
fling suit for damages.
Through Attorney Wilton J. Lam
bert, Mrs. Votaw asks the dismissal of
the suit, claiming that no cause of
action is contained in the declaration:
that the words used are not libelous
per Sc and are not susceptible of a
iibeious meaning. She also points out
that no special damage has been
shown in the declaration of the ply
sician. Notice was served on Attorney

Postmaster Chance proposes to give

tenn in a new service which he will
give a tryout at four local postal
stations. beginning Monday.
system will be put in operation
whereby special delivery matter pre-
Sented at the central station. Penn

avenue station and L street station will
be delivered direct from the station to
points within its territory
AS at present handled special de-
livery letters mailed at these and
other stations are first forwarded to
the city post Office proper and from
there sent out by delivery boys.
New Plan Saves Time.
Under the new plan it. is hoped to
eliminate the loss of time resulting
heretofore in this mail having TO go
to the main Office for delivery..
Superintendents of the four stations
involved will, upon presentation of spe-
cial delivery pieces addressed for de-
livery within the territory of their sta
tions, call up the section at the main
office and ask that messengers stop at
the stations for the pieces. The mes
sengers will then deliver the pieces as
addressed.
Postmaster Chance was careful to
point tnat tnlS OOeS not mean tndL
a new messenger will call every time
a patron drops a special letter in the
box, but that messengers will stop by
on their regular way, giving a COM
parable service, however. The saving
to be effected by not sending such let
ters to the main office alone is expected
to make for tremendously speedier de-
livery.
Route Of Specials.
Specials" mailed at the central sta
ton will be delivered to points west of
the station, including Georgetown and
territory, and north and south of the
station. None will be delivered direct
to the suburbs from this station. Such
pieces will be sent to the main office as
heretofore.
Special delivery matter presented at
the Connecticut avenue station Will
lie delivered direct to the same terri
tory as outlined above. except that
letters for Georgetown will be sent
first to the main office.
Specials mailed at the Pennsyl-
yania avenue station Tin the Post
Office Department building) will go
direct to the same territory as above,
but no farther north than U street
Such letters and parcels mailed at
the U street station will be delivered
directly to points north, including
the Brightwood ard Cleveland Park
