aIIow Much for Dog Meat Pr

A little lad of the town found his dog a
mong the number poisoned by tho sheep own
ers tho other morning. As he drew the ani
NAL home through the town In his boys wag
on to givo him decent burial the boys Jccrod
him, asking: How much for dog neat7ctc.
He was NANCY. nneasiy. mongrei cur.
But he stuck To hin, close US oockle-bur.
For hc loved him.
He hadn't moral or market value
That equailed tho price OF Shropshire eve.
But ho loved him.
And when he found that his dog was dead
1t was what he did. not what he said,
That showed hc loved him,
He pulled him tcnderly Into his wagon
And trundiod him home. nor minded thcii
tgaggin',
For he loved him.
He buried him out OF the Marshai's sight
And nobody knew OF grief till night,
Or thought he loved him.
Tho there wasn't the usual soul in his play
That you might have seen on another day,
With the dog that loved him.
But when TO his bed he quietly crept,
He drew the clothes DER his head aud wcpt.
For he loved him.
1t isn't thnt things are good or great
Which always Axes tho estimate
II Is whether or not we love them,
And In age. Us In chIlchood. with things rcw
The market value has nothing to do;

Experlmcnt Station Work.

Philo X. Blinn. superintendent of the
Arkansas Valley Experiment Station,
has favored us with advance sheets OF n
portion Of his annual report. We make
tho following extracts from tho agricul-
tural division OF the report:
CEREALS.
Three adjacent plats were prepared for
a comparative test Of the cost OF produc-
tion OF barley, corn and wheat. The
land the previous year had grown crop
of corn and wheat, of which each plat
contained about equal areas and received
the same relative attention. The esti-
mate IN these accounts were based only
on the material used and the labor in
volved in producing each crop, reckoned
ut the market price and the going price
of labor, one man Sl.50 per day, and a
! man and team S2.25 per day. To avoid an
uninteresting tabulation of items tho fol-
lowing is an epitome Of tho notes:
Wheat-41S acres were sown to Ane-
thyst wheat April with n press drill at
the rate of 70 pounds to the acre. The
wheat came up well and made splendid
growth. The ground received four irri-
cations and the grain was harvested July
0 with yield of 33A bushels per acre.
L As CApoiioo VI Viz WY Wuo SSJ.SSy VI
at the rate of q ls cents per bushel.
Barley-The plat for the barley con-
tanned 5H acres. It was sown in tho
same manner and it received the same
cultivation and care as the wheat. The
growth was short, which made it difficult
to bind. When thresbed the barley gave
yield OF 40 bushels per acre. The ex-
pense was e3S.05, or at the rnte OF II
cents per bushel.
Corn-The plat of corn did not grow
under as favorable conditions as tho
wheat and barley. 1t was planted May
Is, the uneven condition OF the ground
made very irregular stand. 1t received
one cultivation and two irrigations. The
yield was 25 bushels per acre. The ex-
pense for the 4 u acres was S22.25 or u
cents per bushel. The following test OF
corn on alfalfa sod will make a more
correct comparison with the wheat and
barley for cost of production:
Corn on alfalfa SODA 4-acre plat wns
planted May l2 to corn. The alfalfa had
been plowed and cross plowed in tho
spring. The stand was excellent. It had
two civilizations and two irrigations and
when gathered amounted to 80 bushels
per acre. The expense on the plat was
5000, or 19la cents per bushel.

Every citizen. Of the lower Arkansas
valley should stand by Senator Swink
and Representative Crowley in the posi-
tion they have taken on State Canal No.
1 and the Twin Lakes reservoir. The
moro the sitnation is discussed the more
Objectionable does the state canal ap.
'pear. There is legal possibility Of il
being decreed priority back to June
1880. With such a possibility, it should
be opposed by al the power Of the val
10y, regardless Of the effect on the Twin
Lakes reservoir. II it does not date
back to 1880 tho state canal will be Of nc
value to Pueblo, or any other section
Hence the scheme has no merit what.
ev;er-from an Otero county standpoint
We believe that We voice the sentiment
OF this portion Of, the valley when we say
TINT il the construction Of the Twin
Lakes reservoir must go hand in hand
with State Canal No. !, then We don't
want the reservoir.
Rocky Ford enterprise., 1897-01-07
n time the seepage would furnish plenty

in time. the seepage would furnish plenty
of water.
Mr.. Nash said that Rocky Ford's oppo-
sition could not kill the canal scheme.
In 10 years it would be of more benefit
to Rocky Ford than Pueblo. The more
bitches we have the better the chance for
getting the reservoirs.
Mr.. Chamberlain Of Pueblo deplored
the narrow spirit exhibited. He ap-
proved OF the state canal. Let the whole
valley work together.
Senator Swink said his position was
well known as he had defended it through
three sessions Of the legislature. He had
given as much time and labor to the
question as any man md YVES as broad
and liberal in his views as any man in
the house. he had advocated and
worked for irrigation when he had not
dollar. Pueblo had all the money OF the
country when the irrigation system OF
the valley was started. The state would
not be justified in building canal No to
bring new land under cultivation at ex-
travagant cost when she hns large bodies
OF land under bitches, which can be irri-
| by the state canal. It is most unbusi-
nesslike proposition to build another ca
nal when water is short for those now op.
Grating. The land under the proposed
state canal Ii largely owned by capital
lists and most of it is very poorly located:
What should be done is the building OF
reservoirs and thus fully supplying the
lands now under ditch. We want Pue-
bio to prosper. 1t is our natural market
$4,000 is small amount, but he object
ed to keeping alive project which when
built would be to the detriment OF the
older canals. Mr.. Swink was loaded for
| big speech, but was cut short by the
limited time left.
Mr.. Greene said that the state canal
would act as an underground reservoir
MI. Swink.thought there would be a
very smal return Of water to the river.
| Mr.. Greene oontended that the seepage
was great proposition.
Mr.. Parish said that unless we compro-
missed Pueblo and Fremont counties
would be against us on the reservoir and
other Legislation. We must compromise
or be defeated. Let's give them $4,000
to keep the project alive and get the res
ervoir, then we can renew the fight later
Mr.. Swink said that he should look nj
the question fairly and work for the best
interests Of the valley and his constitu
ents.
g. NJ. Hall asked il Pueblo people
considered that they conced9l anything
in supporting the reservoir scheme?
Mr.. Lewis moved that it be the sense
of tho meeting that the senators and rep.
resentatives Of the valley should WORK
for both propositions.
The motion was adopted by feeble
vote.
| g. w. Fenlason said it was no compro-
mise for Pueblo to favor building the
Twin Lakes reservoir. Pueblo county
would be benefited as much rs Otero.
| 1t being necessary for the Pueblo del
egation to take the BLY, for homo an ad
journment was hastily effected. The
Pueblo delegation took dinner at tue
Swink hotel, the guests OF Senator
Swink.
