sLoss ADDS CLASSY
CATTLE TO HERD

Monday morning s. P. Sloss and
sons shipped through Glenwood to EN-
ma for their breeding pastures in the
Frying Pan country two carloads of
classy Hereford heifers and about a
dozen young bulls, their purchase at
johnson Bros sale of pedigreed Here
fords at Denver last week.
That Price Sloss knows COW stuff
when he sees it, and that he made no
mistake in the selection of this classy
stuff is admitted by his friends who
have been congratulating him on this
splendid addition to the Sloss herds.
These animals were all grown on the
johnson Bros. ranch near Gypsum, and
are among the choice of that famous
herd. They have had the best of care,
are not handicapped by being brought
INTO foreign climate, but on the other
hand they are thoroughly acclimated
and native to this section, and they
will go right on growing into mammoth
beef animals for which the johnson
cattle are noted.
The Sloss ranch is admirably adapted
to the breeding of the very best, and
the owners feel justly proud of the
new acquisition to their already noted
herd.

MoFFAT FARMERS
DEMAND CO. AGENT

Although the county commissioners
last month decided not to renew the
contract with o. l.. Davis, county agri-
cultural agent, and announced that
farmers must go it alone, all people
are not satisfied with the decision.
Yesterday good sized delegation called
on the commissioners and asked that
the matter be reconsidered, giving what
they considered some splendid reasons
why Moffat county should not take the
backward step. There were commit
tees from the Commercial club, the
Lions club, the Farm bureau and the
Federal Farm Loan association on the
one side and R. Fl. Green on the other.
The climax of the discussion came
when Mr.. Green inferred that J. J.
Toole knew nothing of farming, conse-
quently should not be asking for a
county agent. The banker recounted
some of his efforts in the farming and
stock raising line, proving that he not
only was interested in the success of
agriculture, but had taken an active
part in practically every branch of it..
The commissioners have not as yet
announced any change of heart regard
ing employment of the county agent
Craig Empire.

BOARD PREVENTS
RAILROAD JUNklNG

Denver, Feb. ia decision laid
down by the State Public Utilities
commission Saturday, it is believed,
will prevent the junking of part of
the Cripple Creek Short Line railroad
that is necessary for the operation of
many mines in the vicinity Of Cripple
Creek.
A controversy Of years standing was
settled by the decision Saturday. Under
the ruling, no railroad lying wholly
within the state can abandon service
and take up its track without first
obtaining permission of the commis-
zion.
The decision was rendered after a
hearing Mt Colorado Springs when the
civic bodies of Cripple Creek protested
against the junking by W. d. Corley,
who purchased the road recently and
obtained permission from Federal Judge
Robert E. Lewis to tear it up.
The important mines that would have
been forced to suspend operations if
the junking had proceeded were the
Portland, Rose Nichol, Dante, Gold
Sovereign, Dexter and Ajax.
Corley contended that the road was
not operating when he purchased it
and that as result it was not neces-
sary that he start it up again. The
commission ruled that this made no
difference and that in taking over the
road Corley had assumed responsibility
for the public service which was borne
by its former owners.

Speaking yesterday of Mr.. Station IS
service to the school, Superintendent

In the death of Mr.. Frank Station
the school and community has lost one
whose influence for good on the young
life was marked. Mr.. Station was a
man who loved children and one to
whom the children went with their
troubles as often as to teacher. In
him they found a friend in the time
of grievance and mishaps. Mr.. Station
was not only an efficient janitor but
a Christian gentleman whose presence
was wholesome to the Glenwood schools
that he served for six years.
Teachers and pupils will miss his
genial smile and hearty greeting, but
they will not forget the man who was
always accommodating and 30 full of
good cheer.

Fighting White Plague by
Pushing wilee|barrow
Across Continent
is BOUND WITH CHAINS

Attached to his wheelbarrow con-
stantly since September 12, 1922, when
he left Washington, D. c., shattered in
health, weighing 1913 pounds, and given
up by physicians to die within six
weeks of tuberculosis, contracted while
serving in the world war, is the ex-
perience Of A. L. vuillmon, who nst
Friday walked into Glenwood on his
homeward journey, pushing his wheel
barrow before him.
In addition, to being shackled to a
wheelbarrow, vuillmot is shackled by
a lot Of laws and rules which he must
observe, and special guard hired by
other parties to a $4,000 wager ac-
companies him to see that none of the
rules are broken.
The handouts never leave vuill'
mott IS wrists and the chains never
leave the barrow, and thus this primj-
tive vehicle is his constant companion,
day and night. He wheels it into the
restaurant and it stands by his table
while he eats and it rests by the side
of his bed while he sleeps. He shaves,
eats, sleeps, bathes and dresses in the
harness.
According to the terms of his wager
with nine eastern hospitals and numer-
Gus physicians with whom he is gamb-
ling with death, Vuillmot is to drive
the barrow up Pennsylvania avenue in
the city Of Washington on or before
June /, 1923, or lose the money, and
he is confident that he will win.
He walked over the Sierra Nevada
mountains, but he had to wear snow
shoes, and for part of the distance
over the range he had to fit his bar
row with skis, it being impossible to
push it through the snow on the wheel.
At Glenwood he encountered another
difficulty in crossing the Continental
divide, but when he became certain
that it was impossible to negotiate
Tennessee pass with his rig he wired
to Washington for permission to ride
the covered cars across the range, and
his request was granted, and he left
Glenwood Monday morning in the bag
gage car on train No. 2.
"People often ask me-" said vuill-
mot, chow I am able to change my
clothes or take a bath. I have dem
onstrated that within a few minutes
in my handicapped condition I can get
into full dress suit, put on stiff
front shirt and overcoat and, in fact,
do everything that a man thus handi-
capped can do"
In proof of the above statement
vuillmot gave an exhibition Of chang
ing his shirt in the lobby of the Denver
hotel where he stopped while in Glen
wood, and also in the Globe theater.

Violations Of Building orain-
ance to Receive More At.
tentien Hereafter
GASOLINE REGULATION

When is building fronting on a
public street unsafe and in conflict
with the city building ordinance? This
was the question which the city coun-
ell had up for consideration at re-
cessed meeting last Monday evening,
the particular building in question be-
ing the frame structure on the corner
of Ninth and Colorado avenue and
owned by William Dougan.
Complaint has been made quite fire.
quently to the marshal as well as to
the mayor and aldermen concerning
the undesirability and the lack of safe
ty of this building, many Of the com
plainants pronouncing it menace to
the welfare of the community, danger
Gus as a, fire hazard and also from a
sanitary viewpoint.
At the regular council meeting a
week ago last Monday evening, Will
liam Crissman again brought the mat
ter to the attention of the board, alleg-
ing that the building was open and
subject to entry by children, and that
there was danger of it becoming rem
devious for tramps, thus very mate
rally increasing the fire hazard.
Mr.. Dougan was invited TO appear
before the board last Monday evening
to state his reasons why the council
should not pronounce the building un-
safe and declare it nuisance under
the ord nance. Mr.. Dougan presented
no argument further than to pronounce
the building safe, saying 1t had stood
there 80 years and nothing terrible had
happened, and apparently concluding
that for that reason the structure
might stand for another 30 years.
Admitting that the building leaked,
Mr. Dougan said that matter could
be easily remedied, but aside from
that he did not plan any improvements
on the building.
After listening to Mr.. Dougan 8
statements, the board passed by unani-
nous vote resolution declaring the
building a nuisance, and in violation of
the 1922 building ordinance.
A special committee then reported
on the investigation they had made in
regard to the use of gasoline in the
CITY, to the effect that several people
were found to be keeping more gaso-
line on their premises than is permis-
sable under the ordinance. A motion
prevailed that these people all be noti-
fled that they would be required to
comply strictly with the ordinance in
the future.
@. L. Hubbard, as secretary of the
chamber of commerce, appeared before
the board to solicit financial aid in the
payment Of claim Of $1,000 out
standing against the business organi1a-
ton for Advertising literature pur-
chased last summer, great deal of
which is unused and will be available
for advertising the coming year. In
view of the difficulty which Mr.. Hub
bard has encountered in his attempt
to collect subscriptions from the bust
ness men, the council aided the cause
by drawing n warrant Of 5000 on the
advertising fund.
