STATE srocKMEN TO MEET
Big Convention Called to be Held in
Denver, March 2-3.

The Eleventh Annual Convention
of the Colorado Stockgrowers Asso-
citation is called to meet at the AL
bany hotel, in Denver, on March 2
and 8. 1t has heretofore been the
custom of this association to hold
its annual convention during stock
show weekk, but the show has grown
so large that it leaves no time for
any thing else. The railroads have
made a rate of one fare for the round
trip from all territory beyond $50 mil
es from Denver and elsewhere fare
and third. Sam Dutton of the AL
bany has assumed the job of enter
tanning the delegates while they are
in Denver, and this fact would bring
in a crowd.
The state stockgrowers association
has grown to be the largest agricul-
tural organization in the state, and
has great influence all over thestate
1t represents some 1000 stockmen
and farmers, and it's annual conven
tions are business meetings where
the live stock situation in the state
is considered, and the actions of the
conventions have a far reaching in
fluence over the industry Local as
sociations that are members of the
state organization are permitted to
5 end as MANY delegates as they
please, but each delegation is entitled
to a certain vote guaged by the num-
Der of members they represent and
the number of stock owned.
A number of important bills are
pending before the state legislature,
and a large att .endence is expected
at the coming convention because

these COWS are going out into the
country and making butter.
Under present conditions there is
nothing to prevent a man making a
business of buying up reactors and
bringing them here, running them on
the range or making butter from
them as he chooses.
The bill provides that
First All veterinarians making tu-
berculin tests shall report the same
to the state veterinary surgeon on
blanks provided by him for the pur-
pose.
Second The state veterinary sur
geon shall cause the owner to brand
all reacting cattle with a vertical bar
between the eyes.
Third. The sale of milk or milk
products from such branded cattle
shall be prohibited
Fourth The sale of meat or meat
products from such branded cattle
shall be prohibited except when slau-
ghtered and passed for consumption
under federal or municipal meat in
spects.
Fifth Provides penalties for vio-
lation.
Sixth Declares urgency.
The bill is introduced by Mr. Mann
in the house and by Senator Cary
in the Senate it is No. 292 in both
houses. 1t was drawn up by DR.. c.
S. Lamb Soate Veterinary Surgeon;
and he is very anxious to see it go
through during his term of office.
AS far as l can see, the only ex-
pense to which the state will be put
viii be the printing of the blanks;
and it seems to me very well worthy
of support.
Those who wish o help good
cause along can do SO by writing and
urging it's passage to Senator John

of the legislature with whoi
they are personally acquainted.
1t will be noticed that the cattle
can go on the market and take their
chances, though the U. S. will not all

some opposition from the dairymen,
and a so per centa compensation for
those totally condemned would be
a good amendment.

CAT TIE
TUBERCULOSIS
HOUSE BILL 2e2

AThis is a measure that deserves tia
Support especially of all stockmen as
we'll as of all those who are interest
ed in the battle against tuberculosis
The bill provides for the disposal OF
cattle reacting to the tuberculin test.
and before discussing its provisions it
may be well to describe the present
situation in regard to cattle tubercu-
losis.
The question as to whether the
tuberculosis of caattle can be CON
veyed to the human being has during
the past nine years been the subject
of an immense amount OF experiment
and clinical observation, and the evil
9nce shows conclusively that at
least half of the tuberclous children
contract the dis ease from COWS milk
while the older people are more apt
to take it from a human source.
So much may be regarded as prov
ed: There is also strong tendency
to believe that human tuberculosis
would run itself out in two or three
generations if the disease was not
freshened from time to time from the
COW whose germs are more virulent.
When we think that IL out of every
hundred americans die of tuberculosis
this makes the question very impor-
tant.
The COW. who is probably the orig
inal source of the disease, has learnt
to tolerate it comparatively well, so
that the course is much slower in
comparison to the length of life than
II, the human being and cattle-ean
ce in very good condition in spite of
an advanced state of tuberculosis.
For instance a few years ago the
champion fat steer at the Inter-na-
tional was wholly condemned on the
killing beds as unfit for human food
The tuberculin test is very delicate
and will give a reaction in cattle that
have only been infected a few weeks
while their general health is perfect.
Ofcattlt that react to the tubercu-
lin test, only about 2 per cent have
disease of the udder, and it is prob
able that only those per cent pass
tubercle bacilli actually out with the
milk. Still in bout so per cent you
can show tubercle bacilli in the milk
as. taken under ordinary methods.
These two facts look self contradic-
tory, and it took a great dea ! of pa
tient work before they were recon

CITIZEN TALKS
ABOUT 0OUD ROADS

There are so many reasons why
good roads should be built that one
writer at one time can't put them
all forth, but there are a few prin-
cipal reasons that need consldera-
tion.
First, when every nation, state,
county or town owes its present and
future generations to make some-
thing of material nature that Will
go down in history-a landmark to
show that high type of civilization
existed, What could the people of
Randolph county do that would be
greater than to build at least one
stretch of road that would be doing
service unto the fourth and fifth
generation. In this connection
this prose poem is we'll worth
printing:
When Caesar took an eastward
ride and grabbed the Gauls for
Rome, what was the first thing that
he did to make them feel at home
Did he increase the peoples loads
and liberty forbid? No, he dug in
and built good roads that's what
old Caesar did.
Did Caesar put the iron heel
upon the foemen's breast, or did he
try to make them feel the Roman
rule was best? What did he do to
make them glad, he'd come their
midst amid? He built good roads
instead of bad-that's what old
Caesar did.
He built good roads from hill to
hill, good roads from vale to vale;
He told the folks to buy at home,
built roads their hills amid, until
all roads led up to Rome that's
what old Caesar did.
If any town would make the
town the center of the map, where
folks will come and settle down and
live in plenty's lap, if any town its
own abodes of poverty would rid,
let it get out and build good roads
just like old Caesar did.
1t is true that the most enduring
of Caesars Inducements are his
good roads, also the most enduring
OF Napoleon's adventures are the
good roads he gave to France.
