HE was not incapable of an ora

KEEP AT WORK
ON STATE ROAD
CONvicTS WILL CONTINUE CON
STRucTlON OF LINE SOUTH
OF TRINIDAD.
TRANSFER OF FUNDS
PORTION OF PRISON FUND WILL
BE USED TO SUPPORT
LAsoRERs.

Denver-With the view of permit
ting what they consider humanita
rian work to proceed with as little
hindrance as possible. Acting Governor
Harper and Attorney-General Dickson
have evolved plan by which the nine
ty convicts who have been employed
on the state road now under construc'
ton from the New Mexico line to Trim.
idad, will continue work for some time
probably until the meeting of the next
Legislature.
For the purpose of beginning the
construction of the Colorado portion
of the national highway, which is to
run from the Yellowstone park through
Wyoming. Colorado and New Mexico
TO Galveston, the last Legislature ap-
propriated $4,000. Convicts were to
be employed in the actual work, the
money to be used for the expenses of
securing grading outfits and maintain
ing the convict camp, with the neces-
sary guards.
1t required $1,000 of the money TO
initiate the work. With the remainder
the convicts have constructed three
miles of the road, through very
rough portion of the line. They are
yet twelve miles from Trinidad.
So successful has been the employ
ment of convict labor that the Trini-
dad citizens. together with the author
tiles Of the different counties through
which the road is to run, last week pc
titioned Acting Governor Harper to
issue emergency warrants to the
amount of $1,000, which would allow
the road to be completed to Trinidad
and keep the convicts at work.
The governor and the attorney-gen.
eral took the matter under considera.
tion. They reached a decision Mon.
day that there was no authority by
which they could issue the warrants,
as an emergency did not exist within
the meaning of the law. AS they were
desirous Of taking some action from Il
humanitarian standpoint, It was de-
cided that by transfer of funds from
the regular maintenance appropria-
ton Of the prison to the road fund.
the work could be continued for some
months.
Under the Llan adopted for the con-
struction Of the road. every item Of
expense has been met out OF the ap-
preparation OF $4,000. The conclusion
has been reached that the prisoners
are no less the legitimate objects Of
prison expense In the road camp than
they would be II confined In their cells
at Canon City. That is. that they
should be maintained out Of the main.
tenance fund OF the prison. and not
out OF the road appropriation.
The road fund will now be REIN.
bursed from the prison fund to the
extent OF more than $4,000. and from
now ON the prisoners will be kept by
Warden Cleghorn the same as though
they were under his direct supervision.
This will give enough money to meet
the other expenses Of constructing the
road for some time.
When the next Legislature meets.
efforts will be made To secure another
and larger appropriation for the
work.

The Man in the House.

The hour was midnight in the home of
the Ramscatters. The family consisted
of Mr.. and Mrs. Ramscatter and their
young son, George, almost at the age of
maturity. All had retired. when sudden
ly q loud yell penetrated the air.

The alarm awakened mother and ia

1t was Georges voice. Ramscatter
proceeded cautiously across the hall to
his sons room with revolver in one
hand. He was followed by his wife.
George, are you injured?" shouted
the father.
There's a man in the house" came
the reply.
Ramscatter prepared to fire as he
threw open the door.
II don't see any man." he exclaimed
as he flashed on the electric lights.
Hes right here" answered the son.

Poultry Pickinra

The heating of the brooder plays a
very important part in the growth of
the young chicks.
There is nothing that fits into the
regular farm crops and live stock bet
ter than well managed flock Of poul-
try.
The cost Of securing well bred poul-
try is so comparatively small that there
is no excuse for keeping a lot Of mon
grel hens.
DO not expect to find smooth sailing
with the incubators and brooders at
first 1t requires patience and vigilance
In learning to manage them.
There is nothing more disgusting
than to see lot OF old, scaly legged
ROSTERS running with a flock of hens.
Sell them off and keep good, healthy
males.
One of the most conservative ponl-
trymen says that If all farmers would
keep pure bred poultry the business
would be doubled In few years and
that we would still be getting good
prices for our produce.

sheep as a Civilixer.

A speaker at farmers meeting
eulogized the little animal with the
golden hoof in the following interest.
ing strain
sheep are always the advance
guard to attack new and undeveloped
territory. The first sheep and the first
negro slaves that placed foot ON what
is now the United States of America,
were landed from the same fleet at St
Augustine Sept. 5, 1865, $50 years ago
From that day TO this the sheep has
been the most universal live agent of
the settlers In subduing the country

The age of sheep is very easily
shown by an examination OF the teeth
A lamb has the first pair of permanent
front teeth when about 10 months old;
the second pair appears at about IS
months; the third pair at % months
and the fourth at about 33 to 40
months. When the whole Of the per-
manent front teeth have appeared the
sheep is in its fourth year. The Meri-
no natures its teeth later than the
other breeds; the Cotswold and South
downs and other highly improved NUT
ton sheep are some months ahead of
a Merino. but at years every sheep
has its full mouth of teeth. Later
the age is known by the appearance
of the teeth, which gradually lose their
sharp edges and become worn down
smooth. A healthy sheep win keep It's
teeth good until 10 or u years old,
If the pasture is not unusually bare
and the soil sandy, so as to wear the
teeth excessively,

Food for Young Calves.

Withhold solid foods until the calf
will take them dry, which is usually at
about three weeks of age. AS the calf
grows older encourage big eating in
order to secure good storage capacity.
and with sound and nutritious foods
stimulate both digestion and ability to
digest.
By rich cream we have commonly
come to understand TO mean milk rich
in butter fat. 1t is admitted that milk
richest in butter fat is also richer in
casein; and, while an excess of butter
fat is not likely to disarrange the stom-
ach of the calf, an excess of casein will.
Therefore, allowing the milk to cream,
and removing this to reduce the rich
ness of the milk to the needs of the calf,
is an aggravation rather than modifi-
cation, for by the skimming process the
of casein has been increased,
while the effort that should have been
made should have modified the casein.
This can be accomplished by simply
adding water to the whole milk, main
tanning blood temperature.

Salt as Mangel Fertilizer.

The value of salt US a manure for
mangels has often been demonstrated
and the demonstration was repeated at
Woburn last season. About fifteen tons
Of farmyard manure were applied to
four plots, and this appeared to be suffi-
cieat to produce nearly as much as
could be grown on the soil of the field.
One plot had also top-dressing Of one
hundredweight of nitrate of soda, which
very slightly increased the yield. Where
one hundredweight Of salt was added
there was a further increase; but where
the quantity of the nitrate was doubled,
without salt, the yield was reduced
