PRIZE FOR BEST FLOWER
GARDEN WON BY MRS. BOYLEs

The Gunnison Ro;arians last spring
offered prize Of $1,000 to the person
raising the best flower garden in the
town of Gunnison, and prize of $40.
TO the second best. A committee was
appointed which consisted of Mr..
Rutland, Mrs. Lawrence, and Mrs.
Steele. On careful inspection Of the
many beautiful flower gardens that
Gunnison people offered before Jack
Frost nipped them, it was decided that
the first prize was deserved by Mrs.
+. c. Boyles, and the second prize ny
Elmer Ames of west town. There
were many others who had gardens
that were worthy of mention such as
Mrs. Zugelder, and Mrs. Comstock,
along with number of others.
II is great pleasure to see the
wonderful improvement being made
in growing flowers in our city. A few
years ago, the familiar pconies, pan
sizes and sweet peas, were about the
only things attempted. Now most
beautiful results are obtained with
dahlias, gladiolias, cosmos, etc. while
even roses, African marigolds and
species that no one believed could be
successfully raised here Mt all, are
found doing nicely.
1t is hoped that another season some
firm will try holding a real flower
show such as they put on in Delta and
Grand Junction.

AUNT POLLY"
Delta independent

Delta independents
Twenty years is twenty years. In
these days of incompetent labor, a
man or woman who serves the public
continuously and graciously for twenty
years Is a marvel.
Such a servant is Miss Mary DAVIS,
Aunt Polly of the Coop Telephone
company, who has held down the
switch board at Paonia twenty years
on October 9th, and as a recognition
of her faithfulness, the company on
that day presented her with twenty
dollar gold piece.
Il serve" seems to be her motto, and
never favor asked of Aunt Polly. but
she grants it. Nothing is too much
trouble, and her voice is as sweet and
cheerful as ever voice could be.
We have never seen Aunt Polly. bu,
We have had countless accommodate
lions at her hands. And we know that
when we see her we shall know her a,
once by that sweet, kindly voice.
Good luck TO you, Aunt Polly. and
let us add twenty golden wishes fol-
your continued health and happiness
and remind you that we treasure in
our hearts twenty golden memories OF
kindly acts performed by you for US

PLANT BULBS NOW FOR
NEXT SPRINGS BLOOMING

Z. NJ Lowry. Instructor in Landscape
Gardening and Horticulture, Coiora-
do Agricultural College
As Is quite generally known, bulbs
are divided into two seasonal groups:
Those planted in the fall for spring
blooming, and those planted in the
spring for fall blooming.
October is the month for planting
those intended for spring flowers. The
soil should be of sandy loan COM
position, and rich in fertility. II it
is not loose porous soil, some sand
and rotted manure lido not use the
fresh) should be added. Spade deep
and work into good shape. Have the
bed in well drained location where
water will not stand.
Those bulbs that can be planted
now consist Of the following: Tulips,
Jonquils, NaTcissi. Croouses, Snow
drops, lrises, Bleeding Hearts, Peonies,
Scillas, Fritillarias, TritelIias and sew
eral of the lilies, such rs the auratum,
candidum and longiflorum.
The bulbs are generally placed in
the soil deep enough SO that The top
Of each will be below the surface OF
the ground about three or four times
its thickness. If the bulbs of a kind
and size are planted the same depth.
the flowers win appear at the same
time
After the ground freezes up for the
winter a light mulch of stable bedding
partially decayed straw, or other SINH
lar materials should be added. II put
on too early, the mice may harbor
underneath and destroy the bulbs
This mulch may be removed when the
groundground thaws out in the spring
or in case of decayed manure or com
post, il may be worked into the soil.

TOO MUCH PRowLING BY
DURANGO YOUTHS

Durango Democrat
Unless the boys and girls still in
their teens quit so much of their late
night prowling, Juvenile Judge Brad
ford will have full docket. He has
had half dozen or more Of these baby
flappers before him recently and let
them of with a lecture. But the
lecture period promises to be short
lived, not only for the bobbed-hair
girls but for the cake-eaters in the boy
class who should be wearing knee

SMALL TOWN HUMOR
AND PHILOSOPHY
BY BUCK CAMPBELL

Men rarely succeed who do
not try.
The man who says he owes
everything to his wife never
settles up.
Ii is lots easier TO diagnose
the case than It is to prescribe
the proper remedy.
No one has poisoned tongue
unless his heart Is affected
with the same disease.
When | see II woman out
with her husband and II poodle
dog I feel very sorry for the
dog.
The man who knows he liz
wrong generally makes the
ioudest noise trying to make
others believe he IL right.
The fellow who can make
play out Of his work never gets
tired or discouraged. He is go
ing to make II success of life.

A CALENDAR ROMANCE

Jack Canuck:-
Our hero was the common sort,
when all is said and done;
He worked his head off daily and
was out to get the MON.
The reason for his diligence was
commonplace, It's true
He tried to swell his salary so it
would suffice for TUE.
And maybe that's the reason why
one day he lost his head,
And falling on his knees, he cried,
Oh, maiden, wilt thou WE'D.
He may have thought this sudden,
but is seemed not so to her;
She lisped quick acceptance. and
said forcibly, "Yeth THUR.
But when they went to keeping
house he feared that h would die
For, oh, that modern maiden could
neither bake nor FRI.
She could not run bungalow, or
even run fiat,
So on many sad occasions in q res
taurant they SAT.
But he forgave her everything-as
man has always done,
When she presented him one day
Bouncing baby SUN.

The word gypsy is a contraction of
Egyptian. When the nomads appear
ed in the British isles, many centu-
ries ago, their leaders called them
selves "earls" folk Only about 700,-
900 in number, the Balkan States and
South Russia have most of them, but
there are many in Egypt and among
the Moors on the coasts of North
Africa.V
Who arc they? To that question
historians, anthropologists and just
plain, curious people have tried to
find an answer without success. Many
believe that they are descendants of
the lost ten tribes of Israel: still
others think they are the children of
Ham condemned to perpetual wan
behring's. They have been considered
Spaniards, Assyrians and Egyptians,
though they are different in body and
mind from all of these.
The opinion generally held is that
they are Hindus. They have the dark
complexion, the same thin lips,
straight and proportionate nose. bril-
liant eyes and white teeth of the
Hindus. Their language, such of 1t
that is not gypsy adaptation Of the
language of the people they live
among. shows similarity to Hindu
dialects. Besides. their habits and
customs link them with the fortune
telling mystical habits of India

Will Punish Two
Boys; Followers
Given Warning

The breaks that have been made in
the past in the knights of Pythias

city for sometime but few days ago
Deputy Marshall George Simpson dis
covered that some small boys living
in the neighborhood of the hall were
causing the trouble and by judicious
questioning Deputy Simpson found
that two boys were largely RESPONSE
BILE for the petty thefts.
Yesterday afternoon these two boys
and several others more or less I'M
plicated here hailed before Judge
Atchley and they admitted their mis-
demeanors. After about an hour of
questioning Judge Atchfey continued
the case until o'clock this afternoon
when he will rended his decision. He
allowed all but two of the boys to go
with warning but those two await
some sort Of punishment. The Judge
is considering sending the boys to
reform school as it was discovered In
the course of the hearing that they
have been stealing on more than one
occasion.

When a woman becomes great or
