JoINTURE IS UNJUST TO NEW
 MEXICO

Jointure, to my mind is an ont rageous injustice to both New Mexico and Arizona. While it is true that our population does not compare with either New York or Pennsylvania it is likewise true that scarcely any state on it's admission had the population Of New Mexico. and should we go on in definitely striving to catch up to either Of these states, New Mexico and Ari- zona would no doubt be territories for more than a hundred years to come I thank God that nowhere in our grand country is true. loyal Americanisnn more pronounced than in the middle west and west The Beveridge com mittee that visited New Mexico and Arizona some years ago published a report against our people that should go down in history as one of the most diabOlical attempts to besmirch a sec tion of peaceable. loyal Americans that was ever successfully planned and car ried out. To add to this. and in con tinuatiOn of the islander already heaped upon us by the report of said com mittee, officials of high standing in Washington joined in the "merry dance" Busy heads got together: jointure for Oklahoma and Indian ter ritOry was used as a subterfuge: a cum ming wolf suggested jointure for New Mexico and Arizona; our disquahfca- tions separately were forgotten on the preteXt that two rotten eggs would make a good Omelet, but, above all. they figured that this plan was a good one to get rid of them forever. Such actions. whether sectional or political, are a disgrace.
 My objections to jointure are based on what I believe to be right. I make no objections to Arizona believing that Arizona's objections should be identical with New Mexico's. Both are good territories and both would make good states separately. Should we endorse

I hope your people will stand for their best interests and vote for single statehood and demand that as a right which has been conceded to them again and again by both political parties. they are entitled to single statehood by virtue of population. wealth, etc.
 I hope you will take an active part in the coming election, for I know many of your people are looking to your lead in the fight for your rights.

 As you know. I am not holding any political office. but even if I were. I maintain that my rights as an Ameri- can. even though not a citizen in the true sense of the word. would justify my candidly expressing myself on a subject of so vital importance to my people as whole. no matter to what political faith they belong.
 Politically. as you know, I am a re- publican, sectionaIly am a westerner. but above all am an American. State hood for New Mexico is not a political issue; sectionally il would be folly to entertain such a thought (aIthough the New Englanders are not quite so lib- crab. but as an American I feel that I am certainly entitled to lmy day in

In every change from the old to

are opposed to accepting the new. /
viii call this class croakers. We
meet this class nearly every day Of
our lives. We find them in our
Churches. We find them in our
political parties. We find them
everywhere. We found them when
we commenced to raise alfalfa. Il
would not have alfalfa on my ranch"
they told us. If you feed 1t 10 your
horses it Will Kill them, it will ruin
their kidneys, etc If YOU feed it TO
your cattle it will give them the
bIoat and Kill them. Such and
similar expressions came from the
croakers. 1t was something new
and the croakers must have their say.
Well we raised our alfalfa and fed 1t
very gingerly and very carefully at
FIRST but seeing no very bad results
we fed our catt e and horses all they
could eat, and they ate it with
avidity.
Now what was the final result!
Why, we could work our horses at
the hardest work every day without
grain. (Which we could not do with
timothy), and they were in thriving
condition. Our cows increased the
flow of milk amazingly, The other
cattle became sleek and fat Our
hens ate the leaves and laid more
eggs. Our swine lived through the
winter with no other feed but alfalfa
With such results is it any wonder

Denver Union Stock Yards, April

light here last week and the market
quiet. Receipts were also light at
eastern markets but there was no
Improvement in market conditions
as the demand vas very limited
Eastern markets are all reported lDc
to 2Oc lower than a week ago. Best
here sold at S475 and bulk Of the
good ones at SI25 and up. Feeder
and stocker trade again dull as sup
ply was light Denan J, however,
was also limited on account Of a light
demand at all eastern markets
Prices closed weak to a dime lower
here as well as at other points, some
markets reporting even more decline.
Most Of the weeks trading vas done
at $3.50 to S425.
Indications are that the demand
for beef cattle will be good here
this week on account OF the San

meat IS being shipped from here to

Alfalfa Experiments
Continuod from First Pase.


these plants lived through this
treatment for five or six wears.
From these experiments the pub
lie verdict was, alfalfa is failure in
Gunnison county. In 1896 or ! we
were IN a position to experiment ON
a larger scale than we had been able
TO do before.
We sowed alfalfa with grain but
did not succeed IN getting good
stand. Next we sowed ON stubble
ground and were entirely successful.
We sowed eight pounds 10 the acre.
And from tins IN the succeeding
two years we cut about three tons
per acre from the two cuttings.
From this experience We concluded
that we had not seeded heavy enough.
The next year we stocked down
about A. acres in all, sowing about
10 pounds per acre nearly all on
stubble ground and we had an ideal
stand The next year the two cut
tlngs produced about four tons per
acre. Our method Of sowing was
by broadcasting and using a com
mon harrow going over the ground
twice. Then irrigatlng thoroughly.
After which we watched the field
closely and when there were signs
of dryness we gave it the second
irrigation. This last sowing was
made in June after The 18th and in
the fall we cut one ton per acre
| think the best time for seeding
here to be about May 10th aud il
conditions are favorable we may be
able to get a fair cutting the last of
September am satisfied that
alfalfa NAV be seeded as late as
August lst with success. Later
than that | would not advise for fear
the young plants would not stand
our rigorous winters.
Now, we wish to call your at
tention to some Of the rawbacks
which we must expect at this alti-
tude. In open winters when there
is little or no snow which occurs
sometimes many Of the plants are
winter killed. When such condi-
tions occur it is best TO reseed about
May 10th and at the second cutting
we can get astonishing results from
the restock. One ideal condition for
preserving alfalfa during the winter
months Is the mulching of snow
which seldom fails in Gunnison
county. One winter | remember
we had a February thaw, which cut
the snow in a few patches in our
meadow, In those patches the
alfalfa was all killed. Such condi
tions are exceptional. We seldom
have February thaws in this county.
Where we made our experiments
was on high mesa land, very thin
soil as a rule and rather difficult TO
prepare on account OF the boulders.
a part Of this soil WAS sandy loan
and part adobe. The adobe was
deeper soil, both kinds produced
satisfact ry results.
We have produced alfalfa on land
that for other crops we considered
valueless Ia boulder heap, by pick
ing off the surface boulders, sowing
the seed and narrowing thoroughly
and irrigating frequently until the
plants are rooted deeply. This
boulder ground requires at all times
more frequent irrigation to pro-
duce crop. Our rule for irrigat-
