Laws have been passed which fix definite

Necessary to Feed Cows Carefully.

The producer must appreciate that
the feeding Of turnips garlic, ragweed
unsound silage, etc, win give rise to
undesirable favors in milk and he must
guard against this very carefully. sand

psrement of agriculture | remember
IN my experience in producing milk Of
having some complaints about the flaw

the cause found that the herd had been
fed some frost bitten alfalfa At an
other time larry favor in the milk
was traced to piece of tarred paper
that had blown into the yard, and ono
COW that delighted in chewing most
anything that she came across had
eaten some of this paper and tainted
The milk Of the whole herd Garlic Is
a great source of faint in many see
tons. and where cows are pastured it
is difficult to keep it out The best
way to get rid of the favor is To bring
the cows out Of the pasture few hours
before milking time. Where the soiling
system is practieed and the fields are
well cultivated garlic gives no trouble.
For several years the New Jersey az
ricultural college farm has been the
only farm that has supplied milk in
the city of New Brunswick Gin the

has not had the garlic odor. Simply
because the cows were not pastured but

ADMIRE FINE TEAM.

The splendid new fire team, re-
Gently purchased from Goulding &
Company of Denver, arrived in the
city last night and were being gen.
orally inspected today by city Off
cials and others.
The team is as fine a pair of
matched sorrels as one would desire
to see, and appeal at once to the low
ers of fine horse flesh. There is
hardly a degree of dissimilarity be-
tween the two animals, in size, gen.
eral appearance or weight.
1t will take a month or more to
get the animals in good shape and
trained to their duties. They are
about 1,400 pounds weight each. and
not so leggy as the old team, to use
horsey expression.
Fire Chief Perry Rogers is as
proud of the new team as boy with
a pair of new red top boots, and
shows them with an air of pride that
bodies well for their future care and
training.
The old team will be kept in COM
mission for some time yet.

the animals took bad cold and is

HOT SHOT
FOR SELIG

In red hot editorial regarding
the campaign of the reform element
and embodying an appeal to the citi-
zens to elect men to the county poll
teal conventions that will nominate
men ''whosc previous record leaves
no doubt as to where they stand on
law enforcement matters" The
Church News of this week hands Dis
tract Attorney Hugo SeIig and his
Mesa county deputy, John ii. Fry,
who Is a candidate for tile republican
nomination for district attorney,
some exceedingly warm packages.
The shots at MIR. Seiig are direct
while those for Mr.. Fry are indirect
and ''by inference"
In part the editorial reads:
Grand Junction has raised over
three thousand dollars in the last
few years for law enforcement, and
many of her citizens have labored
hard to secure evidence that would
make case in court, only to find
her money and effort nullified by a
recreapt district attorneys office.
Not only has this office made no eff
fort to secure evidence against Of
tenders whose violations of law were
common knowledge, but the office
has so bungled and thwarted the evil
dence that has been secured by the
Law Enforcement League that men
feel safe in continuing to defy the
law.
I'VE are sure If the people of this
judicial district express themselves at
the party primaries, a district attor-
ney of ability and conviction as to
his public duty will be nominated.
The political future of the man who
| would accept the office and do his
duty would be assured. whatever his
party. We hope such a candidate
will appear between now and the
primaries. We are glad Mr.. Selig is
too wise to try for denomination. No
man has right to aspire to the posi-
ton who has not demonstrated both
his ability and his purpose to uphold
the dignity of the laws he will be
called upon to enforce
