SIGN UP THE CONTRACTS.

1t seems strange, now that money
has been raised for the erection oil
the new canning factory, that means
so much to Greeley, that the con-
tracts for,growing peas should lag so
The business men have raised what
money was necessary to secure the
factory and farmers concede the
protitableness and deSirability Of peas
as crop, yet the project lags because
those who are to keep the factory 60
ing will not take the time to call
and pledge the necessary acreage.
Let the growers do their part, and
do it promptly.

Lamb Feeders Uncertain as 10
Chance for Profit

Lamb feeding business IN "elo
county for this season is sun very
much unsettled. owing to the pre-
vailing high prices for lambs ana
ewes, Considerable money was los!
in the business last season, we'll
posted parties claiming that thefe
was not cent made, taken as a
whole. While feeders Of lambs came
out nicely. owing to top prices re-
ceiyed, those who fed ewes lost SO
heavily as to wipe out the average
profit entirely. 1t is poss1oe that
not more than two-thirds OF the
feeders of last year have bought their
stock yet. Should prices drop OH
this month the number of head on
feed will increase materially, while
on the contrary should they advance
MANY feeders will not venture or
will feed cattle instead. In the VI
cinity of the Greeley sugar factory
80, 900 head were fed last year; SO
far not a head has been purchased
for this winters feed. The same
condition prevails at the WINDSOR
and Eaton factories. Money for
carving feeders is higher this year,
being eight per cent. This also has
a tendency to make feeders cautious.
A number of feeders will make
tests of mangel wurtzel beets for
sheep feeding this winter. This
crop yields from thirty to forty tons
per acre and the sheep will be turned
into the fields for six weeks, the first
month with a ration of one pound OF
hay per head per day and the last two
weeks with all the grain they will
eat added. The beets do not have
10 be pulled, the sheep digging them
out of the ground. At Berthoud,
where they have been testing this
method of fattening for the past two
seasons, they make wonderful claims
,or it. claiming in some cases a
in cost Of 25 to 30 per
,ent. Well authenticated instances
ire given where lambs increased in
weight 25 pounds in thirty DAYS. III
his plan stands the test this winter
t will revolutionize the lamb feed

Miss Lilies love of dashing ad-
venture and fondness for equestrian
ism are heaven-born The time her
girl companions spe 1t in social
duties she devoted 10 the saddle.
Her courage and skill with horses
were the marvel of Philadelphia
when she went to Oklahoma to visit
a college chum few months ago.
On the vast sweeps Of prairie, among
the adopts OF equestrlanism, she
made no less a sensation. The
native ranch girl was not her equal
tn handling horses. No equine
spirit was too wild or purpose too
savage for her to quench and rule.
Her happiest hours we're spent in
the saddle and it was on twenty
mile dash across country that she en-
countered Pawnee Bill, galloping
over the broad acres Of his ranch
near Pawnee. The acquaintance
which resulted ended in Miss Lille
becoming member of the big
amusement organization which
spends the summer under canvas.
Her parents, at first aghast, sue
cumbed to her entreaties and gave
reluctant consent.
Let any normally healthy woman
who can stay astride an ordinary
mount screw up her courage she

Supreme Court OF Pennsylvania has held
that the separation of the races was pro-

safety In travelling, and that consequently,
so long as equally good accommodations
were provided for the two races. the rail-

act in separating them.

foremost educators recently observed that
the day was when a negro with an I'M
