justification for homicide in this
section of the state, for the many
and heavy rains of the past few
weeks have s0oiled crops for many
Arvada vicinity farmers.
Stacked wheat and punched hay
have been hit the worst, the great
moisture rotting large quantities be-
fore they are sufficiently dry to be
cared for.
Saturday the Arvada section was
visited by rain nearly approach

for some time has been either ra>ov

Of the struttin' turkey cock
And the eiacISin' of the guineas and

And the ROSTERS hallyiooyer rs he

With the risin' sun TO greet him from

As ne leaves the house, bare-headed
And goes out 10 feed the stock

They's something kindo' harty like
about the atmosphere
When the heat Of summers over and
the coolin' fall is here
OF course We miss the flowers and
the blossoms on the trees
And the humble of the hummin' birds
and buzzin' of the bees.
But the airs so appetizin' and the
landscape through the haze
or crisp and sunny mornin' of the

When the frost is on the punkin and

The husky, rusty russell of the tassels
Of the corn,
And the raspin' of the tangled leaves,
as golden as the morn;
The stubble in the furries-knda'
lonesome-like, but still
A-preachiu' sermons to US of the
barns they growed to fill:
The strawstack in the medder, and
the reaper in the shed:
The hosses in their stalls below-the
clover overhead;
o, il sets my heart a-clickin' like the
tickin' Of clock
When the frost is on the punkin and
the folders in the shock.
When your apples all is gathered, and
the ones feller keeps
Is poured around the cellar floor in
red and yeller heaps;
And the cider-makin's over and the
women folks is thru
With their mince and apple butter,
and their souse and sausage, too;
don't know how to tell it-but If
such thing could be,
As the angels wantin' boardin' and
they'd call around on me
I'd want to 'commodate email the

A large calf, left motheriess and
a burro, whose colt had died, came
together, and while the calf filled the
vacancy left by the demise of the
colt, the maternal instinct of the little
burro caused her to accept the calf

has worked out successfully and for

CAST IRON PIPE IS
MOVING TO PAC|F|C
Shipments Through Mobile
!, Continue At Ever In
Creasing Rate

There is no end to the movement
of cast iron pipe and fittings to the
Pacific coast via Mobile, judging by
the tonnage which has moved that
way during the past two years, and
more and the tonnage moved this
year; the latest steamer loading at
Mobile Saturday with a cargo of $500
tons of cast iron pipe, pipe fittings,
pig iron and steel products.
The Lukenbach company is one of
the new lines which opened up regu-
lar routes between Mobile and Pacific
coast, following the heavy pipe move
ments from Birmingham that were
later followed by heavy movement Of
canned goods and other California
products to Mobile in return cargoes.
Other metal export movements out
Of Mobile Saturday were;
For Matanzas, Cuba, $4,000 pounds
Of galvanized barbed wire. $500 tons
OF fence staples, $500 pounds or nails
and 5000 pounds of woven wire fenc-
ing. For Buenos Ayres, Is cases of
mining machinery, $4,000 pounds OF
steel tanks and 2S6.000 pounds of GAL
vanized wire. For Puerto Barrios,
1900 pounds Of relaying steel rails.
) The wire mill products came from
Alabama mills and the pipe from a
half dozen shops in Birmingham and
other Alabama pipe making centers.
These exports followed three days
after a movement of 5000 tons of
rails for Otaru, Japan.

$4,000. The cable costs. which fol-
low will be $4,000, according to the
