honeymoon which will be spent at the
Hines lodge on White river and for

about o'clock, accompanied by their
friends, Mr.. and Mrs. James R. Ma
son of New Castle. The novelty of
this sort of honeymoon was intensified
when it was found that both Mr.. and
horses. the BRIDES mount being deco
rated with wreaths of wild clematis
and flowers while to the saddle were

number of "Just married." placards
which served to proclaim a wedding
party if the blushes of the pretty bride
had failed in this respect. To still
further emphasize the occasion dozen
more of heir friends followed bride and

+. w. Popple of Grand Valley who is
in Glenwood for couple of days ex-
presses the sentiment of that section
in saying that the people Of Grand
Valley are glad to get the conventions
and will do all in their power to en-
tertain the delegates and visitors.
Thcre are more Republicans than Dem

hcans will give both gatherings equal

Republican sentiment, especially as
regards the national and state tickets,
il constantly becoming more pronoune-

is no doubt of Republican success while
the same holds true as regards the

and father of Arthur and Raymond
Havemeyer who are now at Grand Val

Mr.. Havemeyer, according to Mr.. Pop
pie. will be in Grand Valley in day
or two and will take up the matter of
enlarging the canal and cutting up the
company's big tract of 5000 acres into
20-aere pieces.
The Wilcox Canal Co. has had so
many applications for small tracts
that it has seemed imperative to con
slider the advisability of selling the
land in this way and when it is placed
ON the market it will be great thing
for Garfield county.

BALL TEAM AFTER CHAMPION
SHIP
rom Wednesday Daily Post,

From Wednesdays Daily Post.
Determined to do their best to bring
the state baseball championship back
to Glenwood and full of confidence in
their ability to do so the local team
will leave this evening for Denver
where on Saturday, Sunday and Mon
day they will line up against the fast
Luxus aggregation at Broadway park
in what will undoubtedly be the best
attended semi-professional series of the
year in Colorado.
At least twelve men, comprising the
pick of several players in this section
of the state will make the trip, and
the team will line up stronger than at
any time this season. In the box ar
lists especially it will be strong, as in
sandusky, Willett and Ballinger the To-
calls have the highest class trio oil
twirlers possessed by any team in the
state, and in each of the three games
it is cinch that with proper support
the score of their opponents will not
get far above the zero mark.
The players who will go from here
are Capt. Moorehead, Sandusky, Brusse
Bruggeman, Ballinger, Dow, Manley
Toepfer and Sievers; Siddons will be
picked up at Basalt, Goldsworthy will
go through from Grand Junction and
Willett is now in Denver. The boys
will work out Friday at the park in
order to get familiar with the grounds
Local interest in the games is great
and Friday is expected to see ar

There will be plenty of Glenwood mon

team in its ability to defeat the Luxu,
is shared by most of the fans. Otto
Barton will be in the gang with
horse shoe and rabbit 3 foot.
After the Denver series the team will
play several other teams on the othel
side of the range and will probably
wind up at Trinidad the following Sat
urday and Sunday where they will try
to clean up webster's aggregation oi

several games will be played at hom'

CHEAP FEEDING.
A Practical Kansas Farmer Tells How
He Does 1t.

A Practical Kansas Farmer Tells How
He Does 1t.
At one of the meetings during the
last farmers week at the Kansas
State Agricultural college DR.. j. T. Ak
tell made a talk of special interest in
regard to different ways of feeding
alfalfa.
Alfalfa. according to DR.. Axtell, con-
tains from eleven to sixteen and one
half parts protein and forty parts car
bohydrates, while corn ranges about
one-half that amount of protein and
one-third that amount of carbohy-
drates.
You will see there. he says, that it
requires considerably more corn to af-
protein that he would get from given
quantity of alfalfa meal. Now, we
have found that an animal (horse or
cow needs about two and one-half
pounds of protein and twelve and one
half pounds of carbohydrates per day.
Alfalfa is wasted feeding as hay,
and the meal is too rich as a single
feed, so we mix pound for pound of
alfalfa meal and ground corn. and in a
twenty-five pound feed we have the re-
quired amount of both protein and
carbohydrates.
When we were feeding alfalfa rs hay
we found that the average amount
eaten by each horse per day was from
sixty to eighty pounds. They are now
allowed fifteen pounds of alfalfa meal
per day and are doing as well on the
heavy hay feed.
For Cows and Swine.
A cow giving a good flow of milk
gets an average feed of about six OF
seven and one-half pounds of alfalfa
meal and one-half to three-fourths gal.
Ions of ground corn, while our driving
horses get a ration mixed with three
pounds of alfalfa meal and two pounds
of ground corn three times per day
with one feed day of about five
pounds of prairie hay.
Our ration for swine is mixed with q
bit more Of corn in the proportion than
in the ration for horse or COW. l don't
believe any of you have stock doing
better than mine, and l know Nou are
not feeding as cheaply as l am.

YOUNG LAMBS.
OF Fleeing Memory and Creatures %
Opportunity.

Of Fleeing Memory and Creatures .:
Opportunity.
Concerning the comfortable quar- era
that are so ne essary for tne wee
lambs Joseph Z. Wing has advised rs
follows in his book on sheep farming
in America:
There must be provided a small room
or pen in which the lambs can 81 an !!
the ewes cannot. This place must be
of very convenient access. SO that it Is
really easier for the lamb to go in than
to remain outside. This is because
lambs have fleeting memories and are
largely the creatures of opportunity.
They will consume much more feed
when it is right at their mouths than
If they have to go even a few rods to
seek it. This place. which we call a
creep" must be in a light part of the
barn, and if the sun can shine in all
the better. for lambs are attracted by
sunlight and greatly benefited by it.
This creep need not be very large.
If it is twelve feet square it will ac-
commodate fifty lambs very nicely as
they will not all be in it at one time.
1t should be separated from the ewes
part of the barn by fence of vertical
Stats spaced about seven inches apart,
the Stats with rounded edges. This
will permit the lambs to pass in and
restrain the ewes. After a time the
lambs will need some wider openings,
and then if small rollers are put up to
permit them to squeeze between all
the better
In the creep there must be some
fat bottomed troughs in which to foed
