fairly liberal ration Of grain and get
the pigs on the market as soon as pos
sible. Alfalfa or clover makes the best
pasture. Rape and peas are good for
temporary pastures. For permanent
pasture blue grass and white clover
are very good A mixture of clover
and rape sown with oats in the spring
makes the best kind Of fall pasture
when the other pastures are liable to
be scanty picking.
When corn is not worth over 80
cents bushel the cheapest gains will
be made by feeding corn alone or In
connection with skimmilk. provided
that plenty of green food is given. As
the price OF corn advances the use Of
supplementary feeds high In protein
becomes more profitable. with corn at
80 cents a bushel the use of one part
Of meat meal or tankage to nine parts
Of corn Will reduce the cost of gains
nearly dollar a hundred pounds. The
difference is even more marked when
corn is fed in dry lot.
There is usually little to be gained
in grinding corn for hogs, but 1t will
be an advantage to shell It and soak it
from one feed to the next. Expert
ments show that this reduces the cost
Of gains by about per cent.

KERSEY is ONLY SPOT IN
COUNTY TO GET THE RAIN
(From Wednesdays Daily

(From Wednesdays Daily
A rain, worth thousands of dol
lars, fell in Kersey and the country
adjacent last night. 1t was regular
downpour and saved the crops that
were burning up for lack of water
The farmers and business men are
holding a jubilee today. The rain
only fell for few hours but was
wet enough to make up for all the
dryness the land has been suffering.
Kersey is the Lords chosen spot
in Weld county, according to the re-
ports that come from the other parts
of the county. No rain was enjoyed
elsewhere and things look most dis
couraging. In some parts, even II
rain does come in the next three or
four days, it will do no good. East
of LaSalle the farmers are faring
we'll. They will save at least two
thirds of their wheat crop. The land
under Godfrey ditch is also doing
we'll.
The outlook for grain on the dry
farms in the Oklahoma district, four
miles south of Windsor, is SO dis
couraging that the farmers have
given up hope of getting crop and
are feeding what they have to the
stock Around Fort Lupton some Of
the wheat is going to seed.

SHORTAGE CAUSE OF
SUIT AGAINST BIJOU co.

Whether a ditch company can dis
regard priority right during dry
season when there is not enough
water in it's ditch to supply all stock
holders is the question which will be
determined by the suit instituted
this afternoon in the district court
by the Green City Irrigation district
asking for a temporary mandatory
injunction against the Bijou Ditch
company.
The plaintiff claims priority rights
emitting it to water. But water has
been refused to the plaintiff district,
the defendants maintaining that they
cannot supply all of the stockhold-
ers. Because of this determination
the plaintiff district asserts that the
water to which it is entitled and can
use is going to waste and the crops
on the 500 acres in the district are
burning up for water.
1t is also alleged in the suit that
the ditch company refuses to carry
to the district water stored in the
Riverside reservoir.
The Green City Irrigation com
pany has what is known as the Fred
erick Brothers priority right to
water in the Bijou ditch. owned by
the defendant company to the
amount of 1852 cubic feet of water
per second. The ditch has its head
gate in the South Platte river. The
South Platte like other streams in
the northern part of the state is be-
low it's ordinary flow because of the
lack of snow in the mountains.
In consequence the ditch of the
plaintiff has not enough water to
supply its stockholders who have
lateral bitches below the defendent.
The district petitions the court to
issue a temporary injunction COM
manding the ditch to deliver to the
districts lateral bitches the 1852
cubic feet per second of water to
which it is entitled under the Fred
erick Brothers priority right and to
carry the water owned by it in the
Riverside reservoir.
1t is set forth in the suit that in
previous years the South Platte has
had flood water in May and June
and this is the first time in the his
tory of the plaintiff district that it
has been confronted with water
shortage.
