HANNA Man WAS
HOLD.UP victim
PARTY ROBBED OF CAR BY HIGHWAY
BANDITS. one shot and SLIGHT.
LY WOUNDED IN THE ARM

The sheriff's office was notified
Tuesday night that a Finnish carpen-
ter, who had been employed in the
mines at Hanna, but whose name
could not be distinguished over the
telephone, with his wife and broth
er-in-law, had been held up between
Hanna and Walcott and that the man
had been slightly wounded by one of
the highwaymcn.
Yesterday the car in which the
party vas riding when the hold-up
occurred was found in the hills back
Of Hanna with a bent axle which had
caused it to be abandoned by the
bandits. No further details are
available except that the alarm was
passed along the line and two men,
suspected of being the criminals,
were arrested in Laramie and are
being held there pending the arrival
of the Hanna parties who are certain
that they can identify the man who
fired the shot.
As far as Fan be learned the hold
up men took nothing from their vic
tim but his car. probably leaving as
SOC as the shot was fired fearing de-
lection. The shot inflicted only a
flesh wound, which is not at all dan
gcrous. One of the bandits signaled
the car to stop and jumping on the
running board presented a gun at
the same time calling for 4 confed-
crate who was concealed in the
brush by the road. They compelled
the occupants to get out and then
drove away.

pear that the amount that the city
OF Rawlins will be required to raise
by. additional taxes is ~$14,765.OO.
This will be a tax increase Of 4.43
mills on the dollar or SAB per year
on each 100000 valuation.
This Case I. represents the very
greatest maximum increase in taxes.
AS will be noted 1t Is based upon the
assumption that there will be no in
crease in the water consumption or
increase in population. It can be
said without hesitancy that the wa
ter consumption will be so increased
and the city will grow so rapidly
that the total revenues derived from
the sale OF the water will within a
very few years more than equal the
yearly cost.
Case II. The bonds are to run 30
years. but may be paid in Is years
II the city should elect to do so. The
city will each year set aside an
amount OF money. or a sinking fund
at 4 per cent which will in 80 years
amount to $500, 100000. The bonds
will bear interest at the rate Of 5h
per cent. All earnings secured from
the sale of water to the people of
Rawlins will be credited to the new
system. Also all invisible but easily
recognized savings such as savings in
soap consumption. savings in clothes
due to h use of soft water. savings
duc to the fact the Cherokee water
will no longer be used, and savings
due to decrease in insurance rates

A Sincere Greeting

Mr.. MOndell was received with a
burst Of sincere greeting as he
stepped forward when the chairman
had concluded and in a most incisiye
burst OF eloquence proceeded to un-
mask the pretensions of his opponent
for the office of United States SEN
ator, whose questionable endorse
men by elements unfriendIy to our
system OF government had en-
barassed the safe, sane and conserv-
alive elements of Mr.. Hendricks
party and had caused these people to
desert the regular Democratic ban
ner in great numbers.
The speaker referred to the dis
credited and repudiated League OF
Nations and suggested the POSSIBLE
tiles that might have followed our
acceptance of that one-man docu-
ment and suggested to the mothers
and fathers in the audience that
thousands of their boys would at
this moment be crossing the Atlantic
to protect somebody's rights" II we
had been led into participating in
this woodrow Wilson fallacy.
Sam Gompers came in for a share
of attention also. This labor leader
who has always been an ardent DEM
ocrat is now busily engaged in zen
dorsing'' candidates for office, but
by some strange fatality seems to
pick only members Of his own party
for his approval, regardless of the
record Of that particular candidate
on the legislative questions supposed
TO be near Mr.. Gompers' heart. Mr..
Mondell repeated at this juncture his
offer Of a reward of $1,000 for evil
dence of any vote of his that was
really unfriendly to labor. He said
that he had been a laboring man
himself and that he was heart and
soul for the man who toiled. whether
on the farm, the shops, or elsewhere.
Other extracts from Mr.. Mondeil's
address follow:

$1.249,380.O0

OF this total Of federal funds
amounting to $1,249, $4,000 the
state is called upon to make a CO.
operative contribution only in the
case OF the Federal Highway appro-
priation, and through a recent pro-
vision in the Highway Act the state
contributes but 80 cents to the ma
tional contribution Of 81 cents of
every dollar spent. Even this per-
centage is reduced by the amount of
the states allotment that is used on
the Indian Reservation, where the
state Is not required to make any
contribution. No state contribution
ia required to secure the expenditure
Of the $626,3O2 allotment for forest
roads and highways. The total
amount, therefore. that the state can
be called upon to expend. in order
to secure this sum Of $1,249 $4,000
of federal funds, is less than $780,

Before setting out the plants, the

the crowns should be covered TO a

The part of the asparagus used as a
vegetable is the young shoot that is
thrown up during the early spring.
The shoots are removed when about
four or five inches in length by cutting
slightly below the surface of the
ground, but a should be taken that
the knife is not thrust at an angle or
the crowns will be injured. If so de-

and Is more satisfactory for home use.
Too heavy mulching has a tendency to
retard the growth of the shoots by
keeping the ground cold until late in
the spring.
No shoots should be removed the
first year the plants r set In the
permanent bed, and the period Of cut
ting should be short the second year.
After the second year the plants be-

fertilizing and care the bed will last
indefinitely. During the cutting sea-
son all the shoots should be removed,
as the roots will cease to throw up
shoots as soon as one is allowed to ma

COWS DURING COLD WEATHER
Few Pounds of Corn Chop Will Help
to Provide Body Heat and Keep
Up Milk Flow.

During cold weather, dairy cows
should be fed a little more grain than
during milder weather. A few pounds
Of corn chop each day during the cold
est days will help to provide more
body heat and enable the cow to keep
up her milk flow even In the coolest
weather. 1t Is Of course necessary that
the COW have shelter and not be ex-
posed to the cold winds. On real
cold days a blanket will assist In keep
ing the cow comfortable.
