the Grand Junction team, 1t is inter-
esting to note that on Saturday the
Trinidad team defeated the Colora-

last week, by score of s to 2. The

the Zebs entered the game immedi-

WILL FIGHT
HIS ENEMIES

At the earnest solicitation of his
friends, who have the utmost conf
dence In his moral integrity and his
ability, President Barton o. Ayles-
worth today issued the first and only
authentic statement he has made in
reference to the attacks on his char
acter
The statement follows:
Fort Collins. Colo. June IL.
Awaiting the action of a commit
tee appointed by the state board of
agriculture, to investigate the insin-
uations and reflections derogatory to
my private life and character, l have
refrained from making any state
mont. But in justice to my friends
who have so kindly expressed their
confidence and loyalty and to the
public generally, l feel that it is due
them to say that there is absolutely
no truth whatever in any statement
or insinuation as to my moral con-
duct, and ] have insisted that the in
vestigation shall not only cover these
matters but the source and cause of
the efforts to assassinate my charac-
ter and more than all else infiict up
on the institution over which ! have
the honor to preside, immeasurable
injury.
"B. o. AYLESWORTH."
The Courier is informed also,
trough reliable sources, that a let
ter has been received here from E.
| r. Nichols. president of the Kansas
State Agricultural College, stating, in
effect, that the dictatorship of the
Kansas experiment station has not
been offered to Dean Carlyle. and
that Mr.. Nichols does not think it
likely that the Fort Collins man will
be elected to the position. The board
of regents of the Kansas institution
will meet next Monday.-Fort Col

CALF FEEDING. .
Furnished by the Minnesota Farmer.
Institutes. &.

- At birth the calf has meconium in
the stomach and intestines, therefore
the first food should be laxative in
order to remove this before it is alb
lsorbed. Nature has provided the
food suited to this purpose in the
form of colostrum milk (the first
milk the COW gives). It seems best
to leave the calf with it's mother for
about two days, thus giving him a
good start in life, and thereafter he
should be fed as outlined in the fol-.
lowing table, a.
The change to skim milk should be
very gradual, taking two to three
weeks, so as to give the calf's stom-
ach time to ad ust itself to the new
feed.
The calf should be offered some
ground grain just as soon as he gets
thru drinking his milk. To teach
him to eat the grain should be put in
his mouth when he tries to suck your
hand A mixture of ground grain
and bran with milk makes good ra-
tion. Oil meal or flax seed meal is
not necessary when feeding skim
milk Oats contain large quantity
of fiber which is too harsh for the
young calf to digest.
He should be taught to eat hay and
grain up clean. This is done by not
giving him more than he can eat.
Ca simple way). Feed should always
be clean and fresh. He likes to pick
up wisps of hay and eat them, so
give him nice fine hay, early cut sec
ond crop is rest, it is more palatable
and economical. Scours in calves are
caused mostly by violent change in
temperature, quantity and quality of
milk, and by infection. Therefore
the temperature of milk fed should
be as near SO degreesF. as possible;
this is very Important; and milk
should be sweet and fed from clean
pals. When this is done scours do
not often occur.
If scour occurs milk should be de-
creased one half and water added to
make the original amount. This
done until securing ceases. A tea
spoonful of solution of formalin
Il part formalin to 400 parts water
to every pound of milk fed may be
added. Carl Gaumnitz.
