When sheep can be wintered on
two pounds a day and kept thrifty
with practically all loses elimi-
mated, it is strange that any mod
ern sheepman would think of try
ing to winter them on the range
and take chances of losing the en-
tire flock. Two pounds of good
alfalfa daily for four months with
alfalfa at So a ton means an ex-
pense of only 80 cents head to
winter sheep. This will keep
them in good order and make a
good wool clip. With wool and
mutton at present prices it GER
tainly pays to invest a little alfalfa
to keep the sheep going.-Field &

Tough Beefstake.

A remark was inadvertently
overheard the other day in one of
Ft. Collins prominent hotels,
which was in substance that, while
this meat inspection might be all
right, the beef stake was as tough
As ever. Meat inspection guaran-
Tees that every animal shall be
healthy and the meat fit for food;
it does not guarantee that all ami
mails killed shall furnish juicy
meat.
The question is often asked,
why we have much better meat
in the east than in the west?" The
difference is easily explained: In
the east the range conditions do
not exist; the animals are fed and
kept growing every day from their
birth. In Colorado range condi-
tions largely prevail. 1t is either
a feast or famine; animals thrive
on the rich, nutritious grasses of
the western ranges during the
summer, and in the winter, in most
cases, are allowed to shrink. An
animal that has once become poor
will never make good, juicy beef
steak afterwards, no matter how
fat he may be at the time OF the
killing. This is the secret of ten
der meat and the reason why we
do not get good meat in this west
ern country where the live stock
business is one of the cardinal in
dustries.
VThis complaint about tough
beef steak is as old as civilization in
the west. 1t is bound to continue

more or less until farmers learn
that there is more money in baby
beef, and in keeping the calves
growing every day from the time
they are born until they are year
and half old and then selling
them for the market. In this way
the producer profits by the growth
of the early life of the animal. The
profit in feeding an animal grad
ually increases until the steer is a
year and a half old. In fact there
is very little, if any money, in the
small additional growth of the ami
NAL after this age. The matter of
tough beef is ny to the producer

Colorado Corn For
National Corn Exposition.

4Nok4OAA04 wa - ASA fVSASAOsss
October 9TH to 10Th will be held
the first national corn exposition
at Coliseum hall, Chicago.
Here will be exhibited corn
from all the corn states. There
are classes for special varieties
for farmer boys under 16, farmers
daughters, for the farmer and any
lady who wants to compete. These
classes are open to anyone in the
state. Prizes run from So to S15
on an exhibit of ten ears of corn.
There are also prizes for each of
the corn states but the exposition
managers evidently thought Colo
RADIO grew no corn and therefore.
made no special class for our state.
The writer is confident some
corn from our state can be entered
in the open classes and win prem
ium. We must act at once, how
ever.
Ten ears constitute sample,
and these should be selected with
the following points in mind: U mi
form shape. size and appearance.
of ears; freedom from insect injury.
straight rows of kernels of uniform
size and shape; well filled tips and
butts: sound, well matured corn.
Observe the following sugges-
tions in shipping: Wrap each
ear carefully in newspaper; use
several layers for each ear. Must
reach the corn judge in the best
possible condition, showing no in
Jury whatever. Pack the ears
tightly in Slated crate box, not
tight box, as air must circulate
through to prevent gathering OF
dampness. Seek to have the box
strong, yet light, making express
as low as possible. Ship by pre-
paid express to National Corn Ex-
position, Coliseum building, Chic
ago, Illinois,
The entries should reach Chic
ago very soon. Be sure to send
15 ears in each sample, SO that on
reaching Chicago l0representative
ears can possibly be found that
come through without injury in
transit.
Name your variety; send youi
name and address and let the
writer know if you have sent SAM
Piles, SO he can follow them up.
We want to let the world know
that Colorado is growing some
good sound corn at an altitude of
one mile and over.
Eastern and southern Colorado
has some good quality corn. Ask
for special express rates for corn
shipments which have been Sc
cured by the exposition officials.
Do not let Colorado be without
representation in this, the greatest
corn show ever held.

WILL CLOSE MANY SALOONS.
Additional Returns Show Sweeping
 Victory for Prohiibtionists.

Chicago, III. = Additional returns from the Is counties which held elections under the new local option law show that the victory of the anti saloon forces was more sweeping than first reports indicated.
 Of 65 precincts in the counties of Calhoun, Cass, Menard, Morgan and Scott in Central Illinois, 58 voted on the saloon proposition. Fifty-two be- came anti-saloon territory, only six precincts in five counties giving ma jorities for saloons.
 Seventy-one saloons in 5S precincts in Central Illinois will have to close their doors within 30 days There are now in this section approximately 101 saloons and the territory converted" by the prohibition advocates is esti- mated at 80 per cent of the total ter ritory in which the proposition was submitted to vote. This includes rural as well as urban precincts.
 In IS counties under precinct or ganization there are 339 saloons, 22O of which will be wiped out.

WHEN MONEY WAS SCARCE.
Practically Unobtainable During Period
 of Mssouri's History.

However scarce money maybe at times at the present." said an old Mis- sourian, "the oldest inhabitants will recall when it was almost unobtain- able and other commodities had to be used as media of exchange. The wolf's scalp was worth dollar be- cause it was state bounty upon the death of a wolf, and venison hams and deer skins also had purchasing value. Skins of the fur bearers were likewise abundant and valuable When the first sheriff of Audrain county, in 1887, went to Jefferson City to deliver the county revenue, he met an old friend on the way who, needing money, wanted to borrow the actual coin part of the county's revenue. The good-hearted sheriff lent it to him and went on to the capital and delivered only the scalps. By the time of the next settlement the loan was repaid and the sheriff made his next settle ment complete. No note or other ob- ligation than the mere word was given. Herald

Mexico,s Indian Women.

The beauty of Indian women is one of the charms of Mexico. In the cap- ital, where the Indian has degen- erated through poverty and menial service it is less to be remarked than in the smaller towns and in the coun- try. But the beautiful faces one takes in memory away from Mexico are those of Indian women. Fine eyes are universal, and, what one hardly ex- poets, the features, according to Cau- casian standards = broad brows, straight noses, well-formed mouths and chins full but not gross or heavy. The expression is very generally intel ligent, and often one is struck, both in Indian men and women, with the mo- bility and refinement of the coun- tenance. One frequently sees types among the peons that seem to belong to some highly civilized ancient caste -an Egyptian priest of royal blood, a Roman centurian, an Aztec emperor. The women are gently lovely where they are beautiful, and the men at their best in carriage, in manners and in countenance are strikingly like the very advanced product of civilization. Mexico.
