on the program and some Of
our citizens have suggested
that we should run the big
show on the principle of the
three-ringed circus in order
to get the program through

arrangements have been wise
and complete to the end that
the whole works will be pull
ed off within the three allott-
ed days, hence the almost
continuous popping Of thrills
by the racing, bucking. bull
dogsing, roping and fancy

nue. will present . brilliantly
lighted riotous carnival Of
humanity. Open air dancing
platforms aplenty with the
best Of music will amuse those
who love to tangls themselves
up In the mases Of the seduc-
tive jass. The big events out
at the grounds each afternoon
are % numerous that space
forbids their mention; suffies
to say that they cover every
thing II the way Of racing.

Hotel and Laundry Are
Sunday

Sunday afternoon barn In the
rear OF the Valley hotel was burned
to the ground. the rear end OF the
roof of the laundry was badly dam
aged. and the roof of three rooms
in the back part OF the hotel were
also considerably damaged.
The fire alarm was sounded at
about 3:45. when the barn was dis
covered in flames and the roof al
ready ablaze. On account of some
delay In getting the apparatus ready
for work, the fire department did
not arrive at the fire for fifteen or
twenty minutes after the alarm was
sounded. soon after reaching the
place they had the fire under con-
troll. preventing Its spread to the
numerous frame buildings In that
vicinity.
A crowd gathered to watch tn,
fire, and a number OF willing work
ers assisted in moving the furni-
ture and bedding from the threaten
ed rooms In the Valley hotel. which

Jones and wife, and their son. J.

Of the fire Is not known, one theory
being that children were playing in

Without any ballyhooing of

any similar celebration in the

Head Lettuce Harvest
Begins This Week

The harvest of the San Luis val
ley's first big crop OF head lettuce
has started, and reports indicate
some wonderfully good stands Of
lettuce in the fields in this locality,
proving beyond question that the
production of head lettuce here can
be made success. The z. j. Fort
Produce Co. began the harvest OF
the early crop in their contracted
fields in the Del Norte vicinity the
first of this week, and 1t is expected
that the latter part OF the week the
harvest in the Monte Vista district
will be started.
This time last year the growing
OF head lettuce In the San Luis VAL
Icy was being advocated as promis-
ing . profitable investment with
quick returns for the rancher. Many
went into the growing of lettuce
this spring. for there 10 known to
be sure market for the product
grown in the higher attitudes. which
l. much more desirable for its crisp
nses. than that grown In lower alti-
tudes.
It Is yet too early to estimate the
run OF the crop. but 1t is believed
that the first crop will not be quite
up to standard on account OF the
unusually hot. dry weather the val
ley has had this month. when the
lettuce should he heading and ma
turing. The effect OF the heat l.
either TO burn the heads or to force
the Plant to premature seeding.
Som. fields have started to head
beautifully. with prospects Of .
stand OF more than 4 car to the acre,
but In some cases the heat has
burned the plant and prevented per.
fected maturing Of the heads. This
Is true only OF the earlier crop. and
II Is believed that with more moder.
ate weather the later yield will
bring MP the average and make the
crop . complete success. The later
yield will be coming on from the
time the first crop 10 harvested un-
I'll October l. In all probability.
which will give two months. all OF

WASHINGTON, July 13.-The
American Federation Of Labor has
now definitely entered the railroad
shipments strike with the avowed
purpose Of tying up the transporta-
ton systems Of the country.
A. F. Berries, secretary-treasurer
Of the A. F. of L. metal trades depart
ment, says: Since the Big Four
brotherhoods have already refused re-
pair work formerly done by the shop
men it is expected repair work on
locomotives will be at a standstil1.
Nine out of ten locomotives need some
kind Of repair work after every trip
and $4,000 out of the 20, 900 locomo-
tives in operation in the country need
general repair work every month. At
this rate it will not he long before
transportation is tied up throughout
the country"
The American Locomotive Works is
specifically affected by an order stop
ping work on locomotives from strike
affected roads.
Support for the railroads in this,
Berries said, includes the cooperation
of the boilermakers, electric workers.
pipe filters, plumbers, machinists,
blacksIniths, moulders, pattern MAX
ers, sheet metal workers, copper
smiths, painters, carpenters and help
ers.

BUSINESS OPTIMISTIC
Speaker Says Period of Depression
VIII Be Short,

General optimism prevails in bust
ness circles, W. F. Bushong Of the
public relations department of Swift
& Co., Chicago, said at the weekly
luncheon of the Lions Club at the
Hotel Lincoln. Mr.. Bushong also as
serted that general confidence in bust
ness was returning and that the pur-
chasing power Of the dollar was in
creasing daily.
Economic history is full of illustra-
tfons emphasizing that imitation ac-
companies a war and that def1ation
with it's resulting depression is bound
to succeed It. The present depression
will be however, short lived" he said.
THE present period has made all
business men students Of the forces
that influence their markets. 1t takes
a crisis to make enterprisers recognize
the fundamentals upon which a bust
ness community conducts its affairs"
