Ben Franklin Used
Gypsum, as Fertilizer

Gypsum. or calcium sulphate, Is used
both as an agricultural fertilizer and
in the manufacture of portland ce'
ment. More than $4,000 tons of un.
calcined gypsum are used annually
by the cement Industry, small pOr-
tion Of the material being added TO
the clinker from which finished ce'
ment is ground. Gypeum Is added TO
regulate the setting time of the ce-
ment. for without the gypsum the ce-
ment would harden so quickly that
workmen would not have time to
place II properly. AS fertilizer.
gypsum was first used In this country
by Benjamin Franklin on his farm
near Philadelphia. The fertllizlng
elements Of the material were discov-
cred by accident by workmen near
Paris. France, when It was noticed
that the grass near where they shook
their gypsum covered clothes grew
better than elsewhere.

Let's Improve Our Town.

A town can never be built on
discord and jealousy. When you
go into town that is growing and
where business is good in every
line you never hear one business
man speak an i'll word against his
competitor. If you 60 into a
store and ask for an article OF
merchandise that that store does
not carry or that it is out of you
are given card bearing the name
of merchant or firm down the
street that probably has in stock
just what you want. You are told
what straig forward, merchan,
the proprietor of this store is and
you 20 out feeling as though you
were going to a store of an olo
acquaintance.
If you will investigate a little
farther you will find that the
merchants of this wide-awake town
get together probably as often as
once week to smoke each others
cigars and talk shop. They fix
their prices so that they can meet
their expenses and have fair pro-
fit and yet keep the prices within
the reach Of the buying public
This is not only true of the mer-
chants. but the bankers, hotel and
restaurant proprietors, and all kinds
Of tradesmen have their meetings
also. They plan to make their
town attractive as we'll as their
stores, banks and shops so that the
people of the surrounding country
may BE induced to come there and
trade.E And you will also find that
at least once month and probably
oftener all the business men of the
town meet together for the purpose
of forming plans for boosting the
town.
There is no secret or penalty
connected with this treatment, and
there is no town so dead that it
will not quickly respond to the
treatment. If this treatment were
applied to Dolores every piece OF
property in the town would be in
creased in value so per cent.

San Juan Cattlemcn Trail Herds to
Railroad.

The regular annual spring shipments
of steers from San Juan county are
now trailing to the railroad at Dolores.
Among the cattlemen of the southern
part of the county who sent out herds
were Perkins Bros, Freeman and u.
A. Nelson. Eugene Powell, Wayne H.
Redd, Nelson Bros. and kumen Jones
and son. There were 500 of these,
driven out in two lunches, they being
bought by Cliff johnson, of Dolores,
Colo.
The Indian Creek Cattle Pool are also
trailing herd of l,200 head to the
same place. they having been con-
tracted for by IRWIN Brumley of that
place.
Adams Brothers are also gathering
large herd which will probably leave
for the mountains before this is on the
press. Part of them will go to Thomp-
sons for shipment and part to the
mountains of Colorado.
The prices obtained for steers from
the lower country were. $500 for
yearlings; s37 90 for two-year-olds, and
S4s 90 for three-yea olds. The Indian
creek cattle brought S29 90 for year

Practical Methods for Preservation
of Eggs,

The consumer of eggs can, to a
large extent overcome high prices and
scarcity of winter eggs by storing
few dozen during the season of high
production and low prices. Also, it is
to the advantage of the average pro-
ducer to store low-priced summer eggs
for his winter use and dispose of winter
eggs at good prices.
The two methods of preserving eggs
described in this circular are the water
glass and the lime-water method.
Both methods are very reliable and
will keep eggs in good condition for
several months.
Suitable containers for water-glass
and lime-water solutions are earthen
ware. glass or wooden jars, tubs or
barrels. These should be thoroughly
cleaned and sterilized before using. A
five-galon container will hold about
fifteen dozen eggs.
Only clean, fresh eggs, free from
cracks, should be used for preserving.
Eggs with soiled shells should never
be washed or used for storing purposes.
lnfertile eggs are preferable whenever
they can be secured. Their keeping
qualities under ordinary conditions are
much superior to those of fertile eggs.
Preserving eggs with water glass or
sodium silicate: water glass can be
purchased from any drug store. 1t is
colorless liquid. The proportions to
use are: one quart of water glass to
nine or ten quarts of water that has
been previously boiled and cooled to
destroy impurities. One quart of
water glass will furnish enough solution
to cover about twenty dozen eggs.
The eggs can be placed either in the
container and the water glass solution
poured over them, or the water glass
can be placed in the container and the
eggs put in a few at time. This
latter method is probably the better,
providing one does not put too much
solution in the container, which would
cause it to rise and overflow. 1t en-

man johnson Of South Dakota, who
is a, strong bonus advocate.
In South Dakota, accordingly.
Johnson today has his full fair
share of regular political support
in addition to whatever popularity
he may have among the unorganized
voters.
Admiration is expressed here in
many quarters for his dogged per-
severance in the Presidential fight
and it is expected that the outcome
Of today's combat in South Dakota
will determine whether or not in
the Republican national convention
at Cleveland he will be a formidable
figure.
For Washington, however. the
struggle between Coolidge and john
son is today in some ways over
Swallowed by the remarkable cir
cumstances of the struggle between
Meade and the field on the Demo
cratic side Of the political scene.
Effect of Oil Scandals.
Washington begins to think that
it may have overestimate'l the
effect Of the oil scandals and of
the Daugherty scandals on the
country.
These scandals are said to impli-
cate Coolidge because Coolidge has
refused To take a broom and to
execute general housekeeping
in Washington; but the Coolidge
Presidential movement so far has
gone straight along for the Presi-
dency among the Republican
primary voters and convention dele
gates in State after State without
hitch, or a stumble.
The only even partial stumble
was in North Dakota where Cool

gates by a majority, won them
only by a plurality in three.

Johnson and La Toilette. The pn-
litical practical point remains that
in the convention it is Coolidge
that will have those delegates.

Iington on the eve of the balloting
as to the tenor of the South Dakota
mind. and served to heighten the
interest which political leaders gen.
orally feel in the outcome there
today.
The Coolidge managers have tele.
graphed the White House that
everything is shipshape. and they
expect a continuance of the Presi-
dents victorious march toward nomi-
Ination at Cleveland ten weeks hence,
through the acquisition of South
Dakota's thirteen delegates.
On the other hand. the johnson
managers on the ground have told
their friends in Washington that
in South Dakota today the Presi'
dent Is due to experience his first
setback, and suffer his initial defeat
in the pre-convention campaign.
Contest to be Close.
Neutral and old.blooded political
observers consider the contest to be
very closely drawn. with the out.
come depending in the final analysis
on the weather, the elevnth-hour
activity of rival lieutenants, and the
hundred and one other factors that
swing a tight race on the day of its
running.
Both Coolidge and Johnson camps
place an Importance on the out
come Of today's, balloting that far
transcends the number Of delegates
involved.
Coolidge, for instance, already has
225 delegates in his pocket, con
tributed from the States that al
ready have acted, and the ,acquisi
ton Of thirteen more is not in Itself
considered particularly vital.
Effect of a Defeat.
What the Coolidge managers are
anxious to avoid II possible is the
experience of defeat in the first
clear contest the President has ha6
with a serious rival.
They were none too pleased with
the North Dakota result. where
johnson and La Toilette cut each
others threats to allow a Coolidge
victory by a narrow margin.
They realize, too, that one week

the Democratic national convention.
In Missouri in the recent electlng
similarly of delegates to a State con-
ventaion to choose delegates to the
Democratic national convention the
McAdoO forces became clearly the
leading forces in the situation and
they became so in an overwhelming
degree.
The delegates to the Democratic
national convention from these two
States of Georgia and Missouri will
number sixty-four.
In North Dakota, which has ten
delegates, there was no opposition
to McAdoo. Those ten delegates
are with McAdoo for keeps.
Mistaken i'm Washington.
The net result accordingly is that
McAdoo to date is so far ahead Of
any other Democratic aspirant for
that he must be said to be" first and
tered and nowhere.
In South Dakota today it is OBJ
served that the opposition to him
in the Democratic Presidential pri-
mary has no candidate for the
Presidency and Is fighting him with
delegation which wishes to go to
the Democratic national convention
"uninstructed."
Washington long ago decided that
the country would destroy all can
didates In any way accused of as
ISOLATION with Oil or with other
persons implicated in oil.
Washington today notes that the
country does not entirely seem to
be living up to its expectations
Of it.
