Plum Sweets Are
Delightful Dishes

Our g~randmothers never failed
to have some plum conserve on their
preserve shelves and this old-time
sweet surely was delicious.
Nowadays most housekeepers
have fresh fruits or almost all va
rieties at their command during the
entire year. But fresh fruits out
OF season are expensive and increase
the food bill more or less needlessly.
Fresh fruit certainly but more tor
variety and change and apples tor
daily food with canned fruits and
sweets for desserts.
And speaking or preserves, II

sweet of warm biscuits and pre-
erv but insist on a regular des
sert, why make quantities of extra
sweet canned tLnxs? But If the
family does like warm biscuits and
preserves it saves many q dessert

Try this plum conserve with
warm homemade rolls instead OF

T.. A. HADSELL TO TEST OUT
SIBERIAN ALFALFA SEED

Can alfalfa, suitable to the dry
climate of the Steppes of Russia, be
raised successfully in the non
irrigable sections of Wyoming? The
alfalfa growers of Carbon county
will nave an answer before next
fall.
Mr.. Frank A. Hadsell has Just
purchased a limited supply of Cos
sack Alfalfa seed and will this
spring make the experiment on land
remote from irrigated sections. He
is willing, however. to share some
of the seed with other growers of
alfalfa and will distribute sixty
pounds in lots of not more than five
pounds to each person. All those
desiring some of the seed may pur-
chase same from Mr.. Hadsell by
merely paying what the seed s
him when laid down in Rawlins.
The Siberian alfalfa has been
proven n success on the dry sec
lions in the vicinity of Pierre, South
Dakota, and it is hoped that the
experiments to be made here this
summer will show it possible to
grow alfalfa on non-irrigable land.

RAWLINS IN WIRE TO HASKELL

I'VE would be pleased 20 have
you consider the line from Rawlins
to Craig, Colorado, via Bags is
the message sen to Ex-Governor C.
N. Haskell by the Bags Commercial
Club.
That Baggs. the center OF the
rich Snake River farming section,
has come out actively in support OF
the North and South Railroad is
good news to the local boosters OF
the proposed project and indicates
clearly that the entire country. from
the new roads intersection of the
Northwestern and Burlington tracks
at about the 10th Guide Meridian
to the proposed terminal in Routt
County, Colorado, is united in the
movement to bring the Haskell rail-
road through southern Wyoming and
into northwestern Colorado.
The text of the recent telegram
to the Oklahoma financeer reads as
follows:
"In preparing your railroad plans
we would be pleased to have you
consider the extension of the line
from Rawlins to Craig, Colorado
via Bags. Such a line can be built
on a one half of one per cent grade
and from Rawlins to Bags would
traverse a large Ignite coal field
At Craig you you'd tap the worlds
largest deposits Of the finest blum
nous coal. Both Baggs and Craig
are situated in the heart of large
irrigated tracts and are ideal loca,
tions for sugar factories. The non
irrigated lands adjacent to these
towns now produce excellent grair
crops. Large livestock shipment.
would originate along such a line
and this together with coal and agri
cultural products would be a revenue
producer from the start. II trans
portation facilities were availabl'
additional thousands OF acres o
land could easily be irrigated. 4

operate with you.
