LAMB FEEDING EXPERIMENTS

The Colorado Experiment Station
has Just sold two cars of lambs that
were used in it's feeding experiments
the past winter These lambs
brought the top of the market at
Chicago, sci ing for $3.50 per cwt.
The wool from them sold at 21k
cents a pound.
These lambs were fattened in four
separate lots. For a number of
years the College has been testing
the advantage of self-feeders for al
falfa hay. and also trying out cut
hay. against whole hay. The past
winters work should give enough
data, with what previous work has
been done. fairly to settle these
questions.
In addition to these tests, trial
of California feed barley, in com
parison with corn, was made. A bull
letin giving the results will be pub
lished as soon as possible.

PREPARATION OF SOD FOR MILO

Mic may be planted on sod land
and successful crops may be grown
if it is properly prepared for plant
ing. On sod. a seed bed should be
made by breaking the land, and If
there is considerable amount of
grass roots SO that the sod is rather
stiff. the best preparation is obtained
by rolling the sod down until it is
perfectly flat, when it may be har-
rowed to produce soil mulch at the
surface. The milo may then be
planted with disk drill, stopping
up the drill holes which are not de-
sired. If the sod is very, thin, that
is, If there is not much turf in the
sod. 1t can best be prepared by thor
oughly disking and narrowing until
a seed bed is formed
Both of these methods, under pro-
per conditions, promise success, as
both have been successfully practiced
in different localities and under diff
ferent soil conditions.

"HIeH COST OF LIVING"

Those city folks are "Pikers.''
There is no doubt of that,
Just listen to them holler
When the farmer comes to bat;
Through al those years
They've held us up
To ridicule and scorn,
Which caused the boys
To move to town
Instead of raising corn
When corn went soaring skyward
Cheap piggies had to go,
Then the ten" hog came back
To score a solar plexus blow
Now If they want our beef and pork
And mutton. which is nice,
We really see no reason why
They should not pay the price,

COOPERATION IN
LIVE STOCK WORK

Various communities in Colorado
have for several years been success
full in cooperative effort for the
growing and marketing of various
kinds of melons and fruits. Exam
pies are the cantaloupe growers and
the fruit growers associations
The live stock men have also been
organized. The local stockmens' as
sociations, through a state organiza
zion, are able to command many

however, can be carried further. and
another class of benefits secured.
Such benefits are represented by the
community system of work. Nine

Slaughtered comparatively and eggs
are handled by cooperative egg
export society. Waukesha county.
Wisconsin, is breeding both Per-
cheron horses and Berkshire swine
on the community plan.
In using the community plan. the
farmers organize in counties or other
small units for the production of a
certain breed or kind of live stock
If Percheron horses are selected, the
organization will buy one or more
stations and will contract in behalf
of several Of the farmers for a large
number of pure blood mares. thereby
getting much, more favorable prices
than a single farmer could secure
The organization will provide for
the rotation of the stations through
the district that all may secure the
services of good stallion, and yet
not be forced to practice in-breeding.

the study of breeding problems and
aids in the dissemination of knowl-

The islands of Jersey and Guern-
sey. in the English Channel. have
worldwide reputation for the excel
lence of these two breeds of cattle.
Certain districts in New York are
widely known for Holstein cattle.
Certain districts in Wisconsin spe-

ECHOES

It is evident that eighteenth century
French portraits gave brisk vogue
to the wearing Of black velvet neck
lets. From time to time they have been
welcomed back into fashion, rs Is

pretty little velvet bow of the past,
or a fancy brooch OF olden days. the
latest ones fasten with Jet clasps Of
great beauty, and have In front q
middle let ornament from which
hangs a let pendant. Altogether they
are becoming and are far more COM
