Proposed removal of the Navy
Post Graduate School from An

much agitated by Rear-Admiral

the result that business organiza-
tons and citizens generally have
launched an energetic campaign
to keep it here for all time. The
Chamber OF Commerce and the
Rotary Club of Annapolis, are
the moving spirits in the opposi-
ton. and some interesting devel-
opments are expected to follow,
according to report.

Not An American Lost

On the American side there was
not one death and only six had teen
wounded. Moreover, none of the yes
sells in the American squadron was
damaged teyond repair.
That vietory--one of the most de-
cisive in naval history-made Admiral
Dewey national hero, brought an
end to Spain domination in the Pa
cilic, and gave the American Navy
prestige it had not enjoyed since
the days of John Paul Jones.
Captain Gridley, commander Of the
Olympia, died shortly after the battle
OF Manila bay. on June 5, 1898. The
end came in the Japanese city of

'You may fire when you are ready,

1t was twenty-five years ago to-
Gay that Admiral George Dewey

words to Capt. Charles V. Gridley.
A moment later the flagship olym-

Within less than seven hours after
the firing of that first broadside. the

of defeat. As a result of the bonn
bardment from the American SQUAD

sunk, burned or beached. Their

THE NOME COAL SITUATION
 IS NOT ALARMING

Last fall the heavy rains soaked the coal pile at the Nome Lighter age plant so thoroughly that it be- came necessary to resackc most of the coal contemplated for winter consumption. Many tons were so treated and placed in the big com pany warehouse. but before resack- ing and removal was accomplished the cold weather stopped further work. As a result of this unfOrtun- ate circumstance the full tonnage of the large pile has not been ava',- able. The coal housed is now ex- hausted, but the outside pile stiJ contains in the nedghborhood of 100 tons. This coal cannot be made available for the reason that it is one solid mass and to handle it would be equivalent to reminins the coal. Manager Harry Gab-'el- son states that unless some unfore- seen circumstance arises the out side pile will not be touched until m.,ler weather in the spring.
 r'he Hammon Consolidated Gold Fields have approximately 2S1 e 300 tons of excellent coal still un, usrd from the large shipment prot to Nome by them last fall. It is reasonable to suppose that this pub lie spirited corporation will again come to the assistance of the com munity should an actual shortage of coal arise.

PICK THE LATE MOLTERS
FOR THE BREEDING Pen

Extension Service, Colorado Agricul.
tural College
During the mott, hens lose all IN.
dication Of production, including capa.
city, large moist vent, good laying con-
dition as indicated by some surplus
fat in the abdomen, and bright head
parts. Therefore, do not try and use
these indications during the mott.
Early molters are usually the poor
producers; late molters are usually the
best producers.
One way to pick out the best hens
for laying to use in the breeding pen
would be to mark the late molters
and breed only from them next spring.
Improvement cannot be made with
out selection. Now is the time to be-
gin increasing your next years egg
supply by picking out the hens that
have laid the latest in the season.
These will usually be the late molters.
Mark them and put them in breeding
flock next spring and breed only from
them.

WORK STARTED ON MONT
ROSE CREAMERY BUILDING

Nontrose Press
White d Okey, contractors, Thurs
day morning began the construction
of 4 new creamery for the Montrose
Creamery Co, Immediately behind
the Montrose Filling Station, which
is owned partly by the same persons
controlling the Montrose Creamery.
The new creamery building will be
so feet by so feet, and will run to the
alley. II will be one-story, and on the
north and west sides will be of the
best grade finished brick
The arrangement of the building is
similar in many respects to that of
the present creamery building. The
office will be in the center of the
front of the building, with the sales
room on the west side of the lavatories
and toilet on the east. Directly be-
hind the office and sales room will be
the cream rooms, and behind the toilet
and lavatories will be the boiler room.
which will be equipped with a new
boiler.
The new creamery will be equipped
with two pasteurizers, instead of one
as at present, and the entire interior
will be in white in order to make it
more attractive and more sanitary.
Other smaller items of machinery will
also be installed so that the new plant
will be one of the most modern in the
state. 1t is estimated that the entire
cost of the new plant will be approx
mately $4,000.
The construction of the new cream
cry building viii be of great con-
venience and value to the firm, as i.
Will permit the same force, If neccs-
sary, working in both the creamery
and the filling station. 1t will also
complete the improvement Of one of
the most prominent and hitherto not
the most attractive, corners of our city.

Musty jokes are sprung at the ex-
pense Of little old red hens and their
reasons for crossing the road still re-
main a mystery. Likewise there is
the ages-old question as to whether
she or the egg came first, but cold
statistics show that she and her sisters
in the United States contributed more
than billion dollars to the national
wealth this year, the biggest yield in
the history Of the egg industry and in
excess of the wheat crop. There is
much political agitation over wheat,
but the hen is not asking any special
legislation
