Star Attraction at Stock Show

Eight perfectly matched gray
horses weighing nearly 1000
pounds each, will be one of the big
attractions at the coming Interna-
tional Western Live Stock Show
which will be held in Denver,
January goth to 25th. These are
the famous Armour horses, which
were sent abroad last summer, and
which the king of England de-
clared were the finest horses he
had ever seen. The Armour hors-
es will be shown in Denver in
bitches of six, in fours and in
pairs. They will be in charge of
VIM. Wales, who took them to
Europe and who drove them be-
fore the crowned heads on the
other side of the water.

The breeding-cattle division will
include the grand champion Red
Polled COW of last year; also the
grand champion Aberdeen Angus

Winter Control Of Insect Pests.

yome years ago the department
of agriculture, at Washington, gave
list of about fifty insects which
are injurious to farm crops. This
was not complete roster of such
pests, of course, for had it been
complete, the list would have in
cluded hundreds of names. Only
those which had been specially in
furious during the year were men
toned. The chronological de-
partment of the Colorado Agricul-
tural college has made careful
examination of this small group of
the worst forms, which shows that
no effective method of destruction
has been found for half of them,
except such measures as are used
in general farm practice.
The first thing of Importance
on the farm is clean culture. Very
few injurious insects live entirely
upon the crop that they infest,
but find food in other plants simi-
lar in nature. The potato beetle,
for example, finds its native food
plant in the bull nettle and often
lives upon other plants of similar
nature. Other insects breed upon
conAon weeds and are thus always
more or less abundant and ready
to infest the crop when it is plant
ed. Thus the sugar beet web

lege will have on exhibition at
the Western Live Stock Show, in
Denver, seven fat steers, including
the blue-gre heifer, "Jane Grubb"
which was the winner at the In
ternational Show in Chicago. 1t
will also have eighteen entries in
sheep classes, including the new
importation of Ryeland sheep, the
first sheep of this breed to be i'm
ported into America and this will
be the first opportunity for the
stockmen of the west to see this
very high class breed of sheep.
The college exhibit will also in
clude 23 breeding and fat hogs of
the various breeds. The hogs
shown by the college will include
a pen of Large Black" hogs, a
new importation and the first of
this breed to be imported into
America. 1t is hoped that this
new type will prove exceedingly
popular and valuable to our Colo
RADIO conditions.

Domestic Science.

The reason wash day is SO
dreaded by the housewife and, in
many instances, by all the men,
bers of the household, is because
the work is not rightly managed
and proper preparations made for
that day.
The careful housekeeper has
found that her work on wash day
is made much easier if the clothes
to be washed can be soaked over
night, as this loosens the dirt and
makes them much easier to wash.
A small amount of borax dissolved
in the water in which the clothes
are soaked is great help in soft
ening and removing the dirt and
in whitening the clothes. Borax
costs more than sal-soda, but it
does not injure the fabric as do the
stronger alkalies, SO in the end it
is the cheaper.
The thoughtful woman has also
found out that it is far more eco
nomical to mend clothes before
they are washed, for often the
rents are made worse in washing
and often garments are made use
less by neglect. All stains that
will 'set'' in washing should be re-
moved before the clothes are put
to soak. The stain should be ex-
amined and removed by the pro-
cess most effective for the kind.
1t is best to make all possible
preparations, such as cutting the
soap into pieces ready to make the
soap solution for the boiler before
wash day arrives. Preparations
for the meals of wash day should
also be made in advance.

The Underhow.

A great deal has been said about
the ''underflow" and the term is
so subject to misconception that 1
dislike to use it. 1t is used to
convey the idea of great and
progressive movement of water,
perhaps from the mountains, ex-
tending across great extent of
country. One would suppose that
there is an extensive underground
stream flowing at the pace of a
river. These conceptions are all
wrong. There may be movement
of water, but it is no different from
the underground movement occurr-
ing everywhere, and to a greater
extent in the east, for there in the
more humid climate there is more
water in excess of evaporation to
contribute to the ground water. If
lie great slowness of the move
ment of this underground water is
realized, then the term is not SO
Objectionable. Water will flow
through all soils, but slower as the
soil is fine. In moderate clay
the speed may be but few inches
per day; in sand it is not apt to
exceed ten feet day, or consider
ably less than mile year The
sand of the Arkansas and the
Platte valleys rarely furnishes
velocity much greater than this.
If the surface of the underground
water is traced, it will be found
to be of much the same contour
as the surface-low where the
ground descends, and higher on
the hills. This is because the
ground water is nearly all of local
origin. The ground water slopes
as the surface does. Even in the
sandy streams which seem to lose
their water it is found that the
level of the ground water is higher
than the water of the stream, un-
less at floods In the case of
hundreds of miles of levels run
across and in the vicinity of the
Arkansas river, in connection with
t4e defense of the Kansas Colorado
suit, this was invariably found to
be the case and SO in other streams.
This is an underfow in the sense
that there may be flow under
ground, and that it goes down hill.
But that there is general under
ground movement over large areas
and from great distances is a mis-
take. The people in eastern Col
orado and in Kansas often delude
themselves with the notion that
their good water comes from the
mountains. Usually the source
is near by A stretch of sand hills
is one of the best of gathering
areas because practically all the
water which falls on them soaks
in and reaches the ground water
and loses little by evaporation.
Because underground water moves
slowly the amount of water is Of
ten overestimated,

AGRICULTURAL DEPARTMENT
Directed by the $. .. Agricultural College

worm lives upon many common
weeds, especially lambs quarters,
and sometimes becomes so num-
erous that it migrates into adjoin-
ing crops.
All insects live through the win
ter in some stage of their exist
ence, and knowledge of their con-
dition in this stage is a great help
in farm practice. Adult insects
must hibernate somewhere. and
the place most commonly selected
is secluded place where changes
of temperature will not be too
rapid or frequent. Rubbish of all
kinds form good hiding places.
Clumps of grass or weeds, hedges
and other places are tenanted by a
host which is sure to be hungry
when the warm weather comes.
Many insects live over in the re-
mains of last years crops. Con
sequently all litter left in the
fields should be collected and de-
stroyed Meadows and grass
land should be turned over, ditch
banks cleaned, and rubbish along
the fences cleaned out and des-
troyed.
Many insects live over winter in
other stages. Most grasshoppers
go through as eggs in pods just
below the surface of the ground.
The lady Beetles winter as grubs
in the sod; the corn-ear worm lives
as a pupa in an earthern cell an
inch or two below the surface.
For the destruction of such in
sects, fall and winter blowing is
one of the best remedies. 1t breaks
the pods of the grasshoppers' eggs
and exposes them to the weather,
or birds or, perhaps, buries them
SO deeply that the young will new
er reach the surface, even if the
eggs hatch. 1t breaSs up the cells
of the corn-ea worm and exposes
the grubs. and in addition has a
good mechanical effect upon the
soil and helps put it in such form
that the crops can get the most
nourishment from it.
In the general warfare with in
sect pests preventative measures
must always play an important
part, and careful study of insect
tests will be a beneficial part of
the farmers business. Oftentimes
such means are the only ones that
can be employed. and it is useless
to call in the specialist after the
crop is found to be severely in
jured. $. ARTHUR JOHNSON.
