Buildina Up a Mutton Flock.

From long observation and expert
ence | am satisfied that the process
we call grading is safe business in
the hands of any man, even the most
inexperienced. and is always attended
with success.
By grading l mean the use of well
bred rams upon common ewes and
saving the best female progeny for es-
tablshing of future fiocks and breed
ing these to ram of the same breed,
and thus continue building up flock
that for many purposes is as good as
a pure bred flock. A man with flock
of native ewes who wishes to produce
mutton can select good ram of any
Of the mutton breeds, Shropshires,
Southdowns, Hampshires or Oxfords.
and by using pure bred males for four
or five generations and saving the best
female progeny can build up flock
that for mutton purposes is as good
ms the pure bred animals and will
make just as good mutton.-Dr. F. B.
Mainford, Missouri Agricultural Col
lege.

QUEER VIEWS ON WATER

A great lnany farmers still cling
10 the idea that because they
were decreed a certain amount of
water by the district court they own
that water to do with it as they
please. This is an erroneous notion
and one absolutely at variance with
both the letter aud spirit of our irri
cation laws. This false conception
Of the law has caused Ii uch trouble
to the irrigation officers and no end
of disappointment and unrest to farm
ers who have been under its spell.
In fact the district courts never
decree an absolute ownership in water
us many people seem to believe, but
only conditional ownership. OF more
properly speaking right to the use
of certain amount of water under
ditions is that it shall not exceed a
certain amount of water to a certa in
acreage of land. and another is that
this amount shall only be supplied
after the needs of those having prior
rights have been supplied, There is
also an opinion, much more prevalent
than it should be, that though a
farmer should not need upon his fields
the portion of water allotted to him
from the stream he may nevertheless
take it through his ditch headgate,
lun it through his ditch into tn Q
stream below point from which
those having rights Immediately sub
sequent to his might divert it. 1t
is surprising to see to what extent
some men insist upon carrying their
amount of water through their bitches
without regard to whether or not they
can benefcially apply it to their land.
OF course this is an illegal and
wasteful use of water which water
commissioners should never permit,
and in the majority of cases the par
ties who would undertake such meth-
ods are actuated wholly by spite and
desire to harrass and injnre those
who are legally entitled to the water.
There is water enough for all IN West
ern Colorado if the farmers would
make little better use of the golden
rule and not allow personal animosi
ties to govern their actions in the use
of the water at their disposal

THE DECISION by the United
States supreme court in the famous
irrigation contest of Kansas against
Colorado was entirely in favor of Col
orado, and this should be source of
qualification to all the arid states and
especially to Colorado. 1t seems that
no one in this state ever believed that
Kansas ever had ghost of show to
win, but of course we all feel little
better to have the court decision to
that effect. The decision will great
ly encourage the farmers in the Ar
kansas valley while an adverse decis-
ion if put into effect would have
ruined that rich farming section.
While the doctrine of riparian rights
was neither affirmed or denied, the
court stated that Kansas must show
specific damage before she could
maintain her claim and this she had
failed to do The case was an expen
sive one for Colorado but it was we'll
worth all it cost to establish our
rights in this thorough manner.

Colorado Chdutduqua Ten Years on

The assembly which opens July 4,
1907, at Boulder. Colo, will be the
tenth one held on the grounds of this
association. From an uncertain ex.
pertinent at the beginning it has
grown to be one of the few really
great assemblies of the country and
the greatest in the West. This has
come about from settled policy of
giving to its patrons the very best
obtainable talent regardless Of cost,
and at all times minimizing the e1-
pense of attendance. This assembly
is closely patterned after the parent
Chautauqua of New York. Its ses-
sions are long enough to admit of a
strong educational feature, and the
summer school has come 10 be one of
its popular departments. In it thir
teen regularly organized schools are
maintained under the direction of
specialists. Besides the class room
work more popular form of educa
ton is offered in the lyceum. where
the most noted educator of the coun
tiy deliver courses of lectures. The
evenings are given up to social func-
tions and auditorium entertainments.
The tenth anniversary number of
the general| announcement of this as
sembly has just been issued. 1t is a
neat little volume of A pages, we'll
illustrated with typical Western
scenes, and presenting with fullness
the charm of life among the noun
tains of Colorado. 1t also gives de-
tailed account of the platform pro-
gram and the summer school courses.
Twenty thousand copies have been is
sued for free distribution
Three kinds of excursions are de-
scribed. Railway excursions, carriage
drives and mountain climbs. Some
very attractive trips are offered under
each head; among them being the ia
nous Georgetown Loop trip, the Wild
Flower excursion, through Platte
canon, SNOWFALL excursion, up Boulder
canon to the falls, to Arapahoe glacier
and Silver lake, up the new Flagstaff
road and many others.
AT this assembly the choice is
offered between tent and cottage life.
All about the grounds comfortable
little cottages have been erected and
many of them are for tent to visitors.
Among these cottages many tents are
pitched and furnished during the ses-
sion, thus making ideal camping con
ditions. The grounds are most beau
tlfully laid out and parked. and taken
all in all there is no site in America
more beautiful or better adapted for
building up an assembly of interna-
tional importance. The attendance
for 1907 promises to be larger than
during any previous session.

SMeenY of Shoulder.

If there is swelling of the shoulder,
battle it with hot water three times Il
day and after each bathing apply some
of a solution of half an ounce sugar Of
lead. two ounces Of laudanum, one
quart Of water. Continue for three or
four days Then rub in little of an
ointment of one part of cantharides
and six parts of vaseline or lard. If
there Is no swelling or heat, apply a
strong liniment, such as compound
soap liniment If the blister be found
necessary, apply the ointment as al
ready described once every two weeks
and give the animal complete rest. 1t
usually requires two or three months
to cure a case of sweeny.

Weekly Stock Letter

Denver Union Stock Yards. May
13. Receipts of cattle were limited
last week and prices made a substan-
tial advance. Later in the week the
supply was better but the advance
was well maintained and beef steers
are 10 to 15 cents higher with cows
10 to 25 cents up. New record prices
we're made almost every day. Steers
scld at 81. 80 to IS 40, highest prices
paid here this year, and cows brought
"a. 35 to "a. So the latter being 25 cents
higher than previous high prices up to
last week for carload lots Bulk of
good killing steers on sale brought
a. 75 to Is %, cows So 20 to 81 25,
bulls *3. 90 to 49, so, and veal calves
80 90 to 100, with tops on the latter
at 1925. The feeder and stocker de-
mand was also good but few here.
Prices closed firm to higher with bulk
of week S sales ranging from S4.00 to
*4.75. Quality of the feeder and
stocker offerings however was just
fair and fancy steers would have sold
considerably higher. Several bunches
of southern stockers arrived but they
we're billed through and only a small
amount OF trading done. Indications
point to liberal receipts of this class
of cattle and good trade this week.

reported. Todays receipts were
33, 600 head, bulk southerns going

1T is REALLY amusing to note
the spasms of virtue which have but
recently taken hold on Patterson s
twins-the Rocky News and the Den.
YER Times. This attack is especially
severe whenever Patterson happens to
think of Governor Buchtel or Mayor
Speer, and affords Old Perplexity what
he considers a splendid opportunity to
abuse the governor because he does
not choose to depose Speer, and in ad-
dition to his present arduous duties
also assume the role of mayor of
Greater Denver. The governor is
told that open gambling is carried on
in various places in Denver and that
he must stop it. He is told tnat a
prize fight is soon to be pulled off in
Denver unless he interferes and Pat
terson becomes furious because the
governor pays almost no attention at
all to him The Post believes that
Denver, with all its sin and crime,
is one of the ceanest and decentest
cities of its size in the whole country,
and while the governor no doubt
agrees with Mr.. Patterson claim that
there never was nor is there now any
sort of excuse or justification for gam
bling either in Denver or elsewhere in
Colorado. and while he doubtless feels
that no man with thimbleful of
brains, who believes in the best things
for any community, would stand up
and defend that british sport (7)
known as prize fighting, we imagine
the governor has taken learned legal
advice upon the subject and knows as
we'll as do his enemies the Limitations

HINTS FOR FARMERS
Treatment For Heaves.

Treatment For Heaves.
There is no real cure for confirmed
case of heaves, but much may be done
by careful feeding and watering and
the administration of proper tonics to
alleviate the distressing symptoms, as
follows: Feed so as not to overload the
stomach, always giving three feeds a
day. Water before feeding. Do not
put to work under an hour after feed
ing. Feed but little roughage and only
of the cleanest and best quality. Shell
ed oats are the very best feed. Mix
four ounces each of copperas and salt
peter and two ounces of nux vomica
nll well pulverized, and divide into
twenty-four powders, one to be given
every night in bran mash. After this
quantity has been given skip two or
three weeks and repeat. Giving half
nm ounce Of Fowler's solution of ar
Eenic every night when the animal is
at work in the spring will often enable
the animal to do good days work
when otherwise 1t could not do So
This might be continued for month
or six weeks without danger; then stop
for few weeks or as long ms the ami
NAL can do without it-Atlanta Consti-
