road track which was used 80 much
last year while the regular road
was rough.
The shale rock OF Wagon Wheel
Gap, naturally crushed, is very suit
able for surfacing roads. Although
a shale rock. It is unusually hard.
In Mineral county three or four
miles Of the road from Wagon
Wheel Gap toward Creede has been
surfaced and this has proved very
satisfactory. After much investi-
cation It was decided that the Gap
shale rock was the best and the
cheapest to use on the Monte Vista
Alamosa road.
There has been some discussion OF
surfacing the first four miles OF the
gun barrel road south OF Monte
Vista. However work on the Monte
Vista-Alamosa road will be started
before surfacins on the gun barrel
will be begun. II 1t is decided to
surface that road.
Much road work near here will be
done next year. by the state high

directly of tremendous benefit
to all hog growers, the assoc
iation has had a stabilizing in
fluence on the general bust
ness conditions Of the COM
munity to an immeasurable
degree.
During the past ten years
the hog raising industry has
become firmly established in
this district. Improve d
methods of handling and feed
ing together with sanitation
and measures for disease pre-
vention of the most improved
and effective type, have made
the industry safe and profit
able. The pea-fed bacon hog
Of the San Luis valley has a
preferred market and there is
no danger OF over supply.
The farmers of this valley
should raise more hogs. With
the pure artesian water, pro-
life alfalfa and pea fields,
hog raising here is at once the
surest and the best paying of
all agricultural enterprises.
The local hog growers as

proposed plan was decided
upon after exhaustive discus

is claimed to work to the ad-

be fair and equitable to all.

spring. The state has closed a deal
with the d & X. G. Western rail.
road whereby the state has leased
the quarry OF the famous Wagon
Wheel Gap shale rock which will be
used in surfacing the road.
Grading will begin as soon as the
frost is out of the ground. Alamosa
county will grade the part of the
highway in Alamosa county while
Rio Grande county will grade the
rest of the road. II is expected tha,
by the time the grading has been
finished the snow will be melted a,

The road will be widened to
twenty-four feet. Eighteen fee,
will be surfaced. giving three fee,
dirt shoulders on each side. Rock
to the depth OF eight inches will be
placed on the road and rolled.
Arrangements have been made
with the railway for the installation
OF spur near the quarry. As the
rock Ia fifty feet above the railroad

In conversation with the
Journal man, Mr.. KavaleL
said: "The San Luis valley has
the best agricultural resources,
the best climate, the best peo-
pie and the best banks of any
place I have visited-and that
includes some four hundred
towns In Colorado, Nebraska,
South Dakota, Wyoming and
contiguous Western States.
Last year the farmers here
had all their eggs in one
basket and were involved in q
potato crop that was univer-
sally grown and of a tremend-
Gus yield everywhere, which
accounts for their failure to
market their stuff at favorable
prices. But this valley has the
distinetioa Of nsver having .

The problem: You have a living room in small, city apartment which is cursed with many faults. The walls are so high in proportion to the rest of the room that the place looks like a cell. and the paper, which had been chosen by an minimizing landlord, is a blank, unpleasant color. Perhaps it has perpendicular stripes on it that add to the apparent height of the wall. Then, too, there is a floor of mustard -colored parquet, which must be hidden somehow. The radiator is cleaning forth in binding gold di- rectly under the window and more gold is seen in the electric fixtures, which appear in the form of Roman torches protruding from the wall and a small wash-basin suspended rom the ceiling by barbaric chains.
 The solution: First, you must get rid of everything that is ugly and replace it with something tasteful and attractive. If possible. take out the electric fixtures and put in simple wrought-iron ones, which are more artistic.
 If this is impossible. darken the gold with brown and black paint in the crevices and make shades of matching golden-brown silk. For. the centre-bow make shirred cover of silk to completely hide the china, and attach long old gold tassel to the middle of the bottom.
 To modify the uncomfortable height of the walls lower the picture-rail and use a large patterned paper of pleasing conventional appearance. For the key of the entire color scheme of the room the wall paper must serve as that takes up most space, so you cannot be too careful in choosing just the right thing. l suggest for color scheme tan paper with a design in yellow and orange and dark blue. Think in terms of these colors and their combinations in everything you do in the room.
 Next to the walls the floor covers the greatest space and should be given the next consideration. The rug which must be used in the liv- ing room may he too large or may be
 threadbare and worn in spots wher'

picked a lot of candy and cookies from the Christmas tree bush and the Raggedys filled their pockets and Peter Pelican filled his large bill. Then they walked through the deep, deep woods until they came to Crookelookie's pine tree home.
 As the three friends walked up the and around the pine tree until it came to the Magician's home at the top, they could hear lot of noise above them.
 "Crookelookie's brother, Humpy- lumpy, must be trying to change Crookelookie from a monkey back Into his own self" Raggedy Ann said.
 But as they came closer to the door at the top of the pine tree, the noise grew louder and louder until they chattering. They must be quarrel ingl" Peter Pelican said.
 And, indeed, that was just what was going on inside Crookelookie's house. For, when the Raggedys and Peter Pelican opened the door and peeked inside there sat Crookelookie, still a monkey, and up above him on the table was Polly parrot.
 The Polly parrot was Humpylumpy and he would screech at Crookelookie and Crookelookie would squeal at the parrot.
 Dear me suz!" Raggedy Ann said

it has been walked on a lot, so the best thing to do is to cut it up. Make 1t into number of small rugs cut to fit the spaces where needed. This is fine time to give the carpet a thorough cleaning and then bind the edges with wide blue braid.
 Since you have enough variety of pattern in the walls and on the floor, treat the other decorations with flat, pure colors. Hide the radiator by placing a board lined with tin on the top and flounce of orange linen edged with dark blue in front of the pipes. Paint the board yellow and arrange some Towering plants on it to give the window a cheerful look. Curtains, slip covers for old leather chairs and cushions made of orange, must all have blue trimmings to look Harmonious. Dressmakers' braid in dark blue will do the trick nicely and will never wear out
 The furniture is another serious problem, as the pieces most likely do not match, having been picked up here and there at odd times. These may be brought into harmony by cov- ering their various coIors of stain or varnish by yellow paint. Paint every thing yellow except any very good pieces of mahogany, which will sup ply the dark notes necessary to re- lieve so much brightness. Mix the paint yourself, pure yellow and white and the least amount of red and gray to tone it to warm, mellow shade that is not startling or extreme. The woodwork in the room can be painted the same color, but if you are going to do this yourself do it before you have the walls papered. The floor can be greatly improved if you stain it the tone of the dark mahogany and then wax it.
 You will not need any pictures on the walls of the room, as there is suf- ficient interest in the paper, but dark-framed mirrors placed over cabinets or tables will help create the illusion of more space than there really is. You can get cheap bathroom mirrors even, and paint them dark blue or mahogany color.

as she closed the door on the two angry creatures, "Humpylumpy, in- stead of changing Crookelookie from a monkey into a man again, must have gotten all the magic mixed and changed himself into Polly parrot! It won't be right for us to go away and leave them, so we must go inside and read in Crookelookie's magic book just how to change them back into their regular shapes!"
