Colorado Alfalfa.

We produced more alfalfa hay, the
choicest of feeds, than any other
state in the Union. 1t is absolutely
the best basic food that grows in the
United States today, especially for
dairy purposes. You say you cannot
pasture your cows on it in the sum-
mer time. You cannot on straight
alfalfa, but you can on alfalfa COM
bined with other grasses. We have
been pasturing-but l must not say
"we," but they" have been pastur-
ing all their cows at the Agricultural
College for the past five years on this
of bloat. You need never fear bloat;
they have had them on it when it was
rainy and dry, and under all condi-
tions, and have never had such a
case when it is mixed with other
things. You can have a most excel
lent pasture during the summer
months when you combine them.
We have to pay big prices for our
concentrated feeds. We do not pay
any more than they do in northern
Germany and in the western section
of Holland, where the dairy business
is carried on extensively. If you go
into the provinces of northern Ger
many, you will find they feed no
grain in the home of the Holstein
COW, where she has been developed,
and from whence she is imported in
to this country. l saw in that coun-
try the COW that has been the cham
pion prize winner at their leading
stock shows-thc COW that has won
the dairy tests. She was giving ITO
pounds of milk day without any
grain or concentrated food of any
kind. 1t seems an enormous amount
to be made from grass alone OF
course, they have splendid grasses.
but not more splendid than we can
produce under irrigation conditions.
Their land is high-priced. That land
was worth in our money about S3Io
an acre. and they were raising dairy
cows on it and making money. DR..
Van Altman, the man who owns this
cow, is making himself rich keeping
Holstein cows and pasturing them;
doing this and making milk and dairy
products of that land that is worth
$50 an acre, and he does it on
green foods almost entirely and not
on concentrated foods. I think you
milk men feed altogether too much
concentrated food. When you learn
to make use of more of the green
foods in greater variety and in bet
ter proportion. you will be able to
keep many more cows in this state at
a much greater profit. -

Artesian Water in the West,

The most valuable and wonderful
artesian district in the world is in
Eastern South Dakota, where many
thousands Of square miles arc under
laid by thick sheet of vater-bearing
sandstoncs. The water is under such
head that flows are available in all
but the very highest lands. At many
localities the pressures are from 100
to 200 pounds to the square inch.
and some OF these high-prcssure wells
furnish power for running large mills.
Over thousand deep wells have
been sunk in the portion of the State
lying east OF the Missouri River.
most of which are from 500 to 1000
volume. The aggregate flow from
these wells is estimated to be about
ten million gallons a day, and it is
largely employed in irrigation, al
though part of it runs to waste. 1t is
believed by some persons that owing
to this great draft on the waters the
available supply is diminishing. but
as yet there is no valid evidence that
this is the case, excepting locally.
where there are numerous wells close
together. Individual wells often di-
minish in efficiency, owing to leak
age. clogging and other causes. but
ordinarily wells in the same vicinity
show the same pressure and flow as
were found in the older ones. 1t is
probable. however. that If this large
flow is allowed to continue the avail
able volume of artesian supply will
be greatly diminished eventually.
The sorrce of the water is in the
Black Hills and Rocky Mountains.
where the water-bearing sandstone
rises to the surface and absorbs much
of the local rainfall and portions OF
some of the streams-N. II. Darton

MINERS UNION HEAD PAYS VISIT ID
 PHOENIX
CHARLES MoYHR, PRESIDENT or WESTERN FEDERATION, IS
 IN TERRITORY.
WILL VISIT q G|qsEiLATER ON
SAYS FEDERATION IS IN GOOD CONDITION AND BOLDLY
 ORGANIZED.

Mixing business with pleasure, sec ing the farms of the Salt river valley while be is in Arizona to look after l the interests of the union miners, Charles Mover, president of the West ern Federation of Miners, and big man in the labor affairs of the west, is spending several days in Phoenix, being a guest at the Ford hotel with Mrs. Mover, says the Phoenix Demo crat.
 Though Mover arrived in Phoenix Thursday, his presence at the Ford ho- tel was rot discovered until late yester- day afternoon, not even Proprietor Haffner knowing who ne was entertain ing until the matter was called to his attention.
 Mover was so prominently in the limelight in connection with the trial of Haywood, Pettibone and himself in Idaho in connection with the death of Governor Steunenberg, that if left to his own inclinations he would escape all further publicity.
 Next week Mover will begin tour of the mining camps of Arizona, go- ing to Jerome, Mccabc, Bisbec, Globe, Tombstone and several other places. It is probable that he will visit Court land and Salome,' two of the younger ,camps, and may establish branches of the federation there.
 Judging from the reports that have been received recently. said Mover, 'I expect to find all these camps in a flourishing condition as far as the union workers arc concerned.
 .'We have been making good pro- greas in Arizona during the past few years, ard the indications are that 1909 will be the banner year for union min CTS in Arizona.
 q have been told that most of the copper mines arc planning to eurtail their production in Arizona, but l hard ly believe this. Of course, any lessen- ing of the production would mean falling off of the number of miners employed.
 'sDuring our Idaho trouble. prcdic- tions were made on every hand that the Western Federation of Miners was on-its deathbed, and that a few short years would sec it pass out of existence. With those who predicted this, the wish was father to the thought. We are now in more fiourishing condition and on more substantial basis than we have ever been.
 ssThe outcome of the Boise trials was T vindicaton for the federation. Once accused of crime, it was an easy mat ter for people to lay every crime that was being or had been committed at our doors, and l am sorry to say that some people believed all the groundless charges that were made against us
 "An organization as large as ours naturally has bitter enemies. While

 in the calendar, it developed that they they were accusing us of every crime had themselves employed means even worse than those they dared to charge against us.
 Mover remarked that his visit to Arizona at this time has no other sig. niicanee than the visit of the head of such an organization naturally would have. He is here for tho purpose of getting in touch with the local branch es of the federation.
 Mover said that he was spending much of the time driving about the valley. He marveled at its richness, and said that to Dc in the least appre- ciated one must spend some time in the valley and see the resources first hand,

take Frcd's petting and chocolate
creams instead of carrying out her Sc
rious intention. The dear boy always
remembered her taste for chocolate
creams, but she must remember he
wasn't dear boy any more.
He was an autoCrat who had aSSum
ed authority over her beyond his right,
had dictated as to her conduct and
made himself so diSagreeable that she
was determined to put up with it no
longer
She had been merely amusing her
self with that new, Spanish looking
young man, who had a delightful ac-
cent and a gratifying admiration for
Miss Polly. 1t was great fun to en-
gross him entirely and render him OBJ
livious to the charms Of the other
girls.
She had meant nothing more at all,
but now, since 1t was to be all off
with Ired-Mr Roderique was very
neutrality-suspicious. she would eventual
ly consent to reign in the ancestral
halls he had described so glowingly.
Polly was swiftly pursuing her way,
mindful that there was need of haste
If she would reach her destination be-
fore it was "scary" dark, when a cou-
pie of the girls appeared around a
corner and hailed her.
She shook her head and passed on, a
little veXed, for she was obliged to
make a long detOur to avoid their com
pany and her own inclination to tell
things.
Nobody should know of the rupture
with Fred until she could exhibit the
Roderique diamonds in her engage
ment ring Then If Elsie Wilson, who
admired Fred openly, could capture
him let her. Anybody was welcome
to Fred Nevertheless she felt a
twinge of jealousy and sneered at her
self for It,

ing toward her with news" on their
eager faces. She coolly detected from
her course again, obviously avoiding
them.
"Such time as I'm having running
away" she unused whimsically. Hero
ines usually have adventures and diff
ticulties in escaping, but they run
away at night. I'd be scared to death!

early, whistling Pretty Polly Oliver
