BEAUTIFUL NATIONAL
FOREST PICTURES

Thru the courtesy Of the y. S. De
partment Of Agriculture. the coIonists
and neighbors enjoyed hugely two
beautiful films of the Santa Fe Nation
al Forest Reserve on the night Of Ju-
ly IS. The Juvenile Orchestra began
the performance with splendid music.
In addition 10 the forest films, pictures
were shown Of the method Of culIing
improbable hens from the flock, most
properly to be performed in the months
Of August and September. The dis
lance between the pubic bones IF q
good laying hen should be no less than
the width Of three good-sized fingers,
When only two fingers wide it indicates
an Improbable hen. SO far as egg pro-
duction is concerned. Another good
indication is good-sized vent which
Is soft and moist, while the vent Of al
poor layer is small. contracted and
dry.
Oh boy. these mountain pictures
made this writer just home-sick for the

years knocking around IN the Rockies

lines becomes almost overwhelming.

Thursday, July l3. One Of the
greatest obstacles to progress in any
forward mavement is the individual
who must either rule or ruin. He us
ually has a fixed idea just what mus.
be done and if it isn't done exactly as
he says-well. then ii must be killed.
Yes. we have had him (and her, too)
at the Colony. Usually they have
nothing to invest to back their idea:
they usually want to do it at other peo-
pies expense. and when others refuse
TO have the operation performed, why,
OF course, the Colony is no good; our
brand Of cooperation is at fault. /
don't say these people are not sincere
because most Of them are; but an in
sane man who is sincere can kill Won
just as dead as sane man can. Co
operation does not run on those lines.
When you come here be assured that
all your ideas will>not Be put into ef-
tect at once. There are other people
on the beach and other people here
with ideas. Also, eight years Of exper-
lence in complete cooperation has
taught Us some very fine lessons. So.
when you come to the Colony Be pa

times greed causes great trouble. At

the newspapers and expect them

culate misunderstanding literature
during a political campaign. The Ohio
law is mighty good law if it will
curb this form of nuisance. And since
it has been upheld by the highest tri-
bunal in the state we see no reason
why every other state in the union
should not hasten to adopt it imme-
diately.
