Loco investigation.

lhe investigation into effects OF the
loco weed on cattle and horses by the
Department OF Agriculture and the
State Experiment Station has thus far
been without results, says the Denver
Record. .Stockman. The post mortem
performed last week by Dr. Glover OF
the experiment station and DIR. Lamb.
state veterinarian. and DR.. March, in
charge OF the government experiment
at E=s0. developed nothing startling.
Speaking OF the investigations at Hugo
the Record-Stockman quotes the
Range as follows:
While it is true that little Is be-
ing accomplished at the loco expert
ment station here at present. We can
see no reason for disbursement in
the mere fact that the stock are not
taking readily to the eating OF the
loco weed at this season OF the year.
when green grass is so abundant. II
is a well known fact among local
stockmen that during the months OF
June. July and August. when green
grass is the most abundant. they have
the least trouble over their stock eat.
ing loco and that stock not used TO
eating the weed are not apt to touch
II during these months. 1t Is Ia the
fall ol the year. when the grass is
cured and the loco remains green.
that stock acquire taste for the weed
and L continued feeding on the weed
throughout the fall and winter is wha,
causes the disastrous effect. The ex.
pertinent was not commenced here un,
Ill after green grass had started. so
there is yet no just reason for criti.
cism at this time. The experiment ID
to be continued for at least a year
at the end of which time successful
results will. no doubt. have beer &C
ccnp!ished. In the meantime out
s.Ters should not be too hasty In thelI
criticisms. but should wait until the
experiment has run its full course"

NJ, Selection OF heads;

cred advisable to allow grain intended

be a good plan TO leave tho gram on

surrounding grain Is harvested. thus
allowing it TO become fully matuTei'

Colorado Starch.

The shipment from Greeley of the
first carload OF Colorado starch ever
sent out of the state was a notable
event in more ways than one.
1t was the initial shipment in what
may in course of time become a large
east-bound traffic. II demonstrated
that 1t is practicable to use as raw ma,
terial the product of an established
Colorado industry. thus giving new EN-.
ployment to labor and opening up new
markets. 1t showed also that the DO.
tato growers of the Greeley district
will not be wholly dependent upon the
sale of their product in more or less
remote markets. The starch factory
supplies market at their doors for
part of their crop, -lore especially for
the otherwise unstable part.
II is stated that the shipment con.
sisted of 10000 pounds of starch, and
was the product Of 100000 pounds of
potatoes. This is equivalent to saying
that the potatoes yielded twenty per
cent. in starch. which seems to be
about the yield of Indian corn. From
this the conclusion seems iuStified that
potato starch from Greeley can com.
pete with corn starch made in other
parts of the country SO far, at least.
as the western market is concerned,
Whether 1t will pay to ship it all the
way to the cotton factories of New
England may be an open question; BIZ,
in any event there is big market for
it. and it is possible that the industry
will grow in few years to large pro
portions.
No better illustration could be given
Of the practicability Of developing new
industries in this state based on the
product Of other Industries already 90
