usual strong vote and still retains
the lead. The vote for Company

materially lessened the lead for
merly held by the Fire Depart

two previous weeks combined.
Miss Lottie Edwards has support
ers enough to keep her in the
same class with the leaders.
The Odd Fellows and the Ala

week S35 votes, and the other
63l votes. There was not much
activity among the contestants

HUDSON COUNTRY is
HIT BY A BIG FIRE.

Hudson, Colo, March 2s.-A prairie
fire several miles in width is sweeping
toward the town from the northeast to-
night, the wind is blowing gale and
the temperature is falling, and there is
every indication of storm before
morning.
The town itself is well protected from
prairie fires by irrigation bitches on the
north and east and there is nothing to
be feared by the town, but much con-
cern is felt for several ranches some
two or three miles to the north, as they
are not well protected. Owing to there
being no telephones in this district,
Hudson residents are unable to learn
what damage is being done. The fire
has been raging far to the north for
several days, but the wind has been
blowing from the south and it was
hoped that the adjacent country north
Of here would escape damage.

The campaign being conducted by the
Colorado Agricultural college in an ef-
fort to get milo generally grown a.
feed crop on the plains of the state has
called forth a great deal of inquiry con-
cerning this crop.
Milo belongs to the family Of plants
called sorghums. The sorghums are di-
vided into two large groups--the sweet
or saccharin sorghums, and the non
saccharin sorghums. These differ chiefly
in sugar content, and yield Of seed.
The sap OF the saccharin sorghums il
sweet, and the non-saccharn sor1hums
have no sugar in the sap. Milo belongs
to the non-ssccharin group of sorghums.
1t resembles kaffir very much in ap-
pearance and habits Of growth, which
ID quite natural. considering it in q close
relative of kafiir. 1t is frequently called
milo maize, but this name is incorrect,
- it is not maize.
MILO grows erect, with thick, short
jointed stalks, attaining an average
height Of from 4 to feet. The grain
II borne in heads at the top Of the
stalks. These heads reach consider
able size and are relatively short and
compact. Where the stand il thin the
heads get very large and turn down.
ward by their own weight. With thicker
stands the heads are smaller and stand

CHANCES IN CABBAGE SEED
RAISING UNAPPRECIATEp

Raising cabbage seed for the
market is one of the important.
though little known Industries of
this vicinity said a well known
farmer living near Greeley. Seed
brought from the east has always
proved unsatisfactory. and there was
not much cabbage grown on the
river bottoms until F. w. Scott made
his discovery several years ago.
After a long series OF expert
meuts and failures he secured a
cross between the Flat Dutch and
the Winningstadt varieties This
strein is practically the only one
grown any more in this part of the
state 1t is suited to the climate, the
soil and the altitude. Greeley is
about the only place where the seed
is raised
Every gardener and cabbage
grower makes business of raising
some seed cabbage. This is primar-
ily for his own needs. but most of
the growers set out enough so that
they sell a small quantity. There is
handsome profit per acre from
seed cabbage.
1T is hard to say just how much
Seeu Is grown year, But ! think
that last year there was not less
than 800 pounds and it is very pos
sible that the amount was as high as
300 pounds. There will be even
more grown the coming season
Gardeners in the Gipson district.
The Delta and along the river gener-
ally are busy setting out seed cab
bage this week. Special care is re-
CURED in the preparation and the
raising of these plants, as well as in
, the harvesting.
