The farmer is enabled to market
his crop In a concentrated form as
milk. cream and butter
There is scarcity of sweet milk
and cream in Denver today.
The United States government
has man who. in conjunction with
the State Agricultural college at
Fort Collins, gives his time to help
ing farmers build up herds, select
and breed stock and improve prem
ises by giving suggestions, blue
,rints of houses If wanted, plans
and assistance in making silos, etc.
His name is Paul " Maris.
"A farmer should keep some hogs
because they fatten on skinned
milk and alfalfa and bring good re-
turns.
Corn makes the best silage but
Kafir corn and milo also are valua-
BILE in this method of preserving
green food until 1t is wanted.
There are few dry lands which
will not produce Kafir corn, milo,
sorghum and Spanish peanuts and
some real corn. am convinced
that more than one farmer who has
become discouraged with dry farm
Ing In certain sections, could have
succeeded If he had raised rough
age and fed 1t to COWS instead of
trying grains"

that the loss OF a $500 diamond pin
in tho ARRAY and the loss of busi-

only possible thing that can prevent
the election of democratic presi-

themselves. The opportunity is
here. and from all parts OF the coun-

We are ready now for anything
which they may bring up" said l..
r. Rhodes today. "Our investiga-
ton has been thorough and we have
found that the Platte valley is get
ting all the water it can take care
Of.
Eve do not care what they do
with the water which they get down
there. 1t is seepage and percolat-
ing water and We have no control
over it, but it has been conclusiyely
demonstrated that they are not suf-
fering from the fact that We are
storing water up here. They get the
benefit of the seepage and as far
as We are concerned they can use it
for storage, direct irrigation or for
any other purpose. but they cannot
infringe on our rights.
I'VE will, of course, do nothing
as long as they do not file the $10,-
900 bond required by the court. We
are storing water and that is all we
want. The case must eventually be
decided by the supreme court, but
as long as they do not post the bond,
we will wait. AS soon as We learn
that the bond has been filed, We will
ask for an immediate hearing be-
fore the supreme court and we have
all the facts and figures to support
our side of the controversy.
THE talk that they are not get
ting enough water is nonsense. as
the result of our Investigations
show that they have more than
enough to supply all their needs. l
am OF the opinion that this district
will not be stopped from storing
water for one day" Fort Collins

The wife of a prominent Unitarian
clergyman is still wondering what her
cook meant. She was a new cook, and
there vas every reason to believe she
was a good cook. At any rate, she
had unquestionably served in good
families, and she brought the best Of
references. Nevertheless, her new
mistress did not hesitate to give her
a few instructions.
"One thing | want yoY to remem.
Der, Nellie" said she, is the way we
like u oatmeal. Don't leave it wa.
terry. But we don't like 1t hard and
dry, either"

cook, confidently. "Ill get it right,

He lighted his pipe with exaspera-

"You are not going to kill Strang
tomorrow" he added, throwing away
the match and placing both hands on
Neil's shoulders. His eyes were
laughing with the JOY that shone in
them. Neil, l am ashamed of you!

Marion. put her in a bag if necessary
and carry her to my ship. Isn't that
better and safer and just as sure as

The excitement had gone out of
Neil's face. The flush slowly faded
from his cheeks and in his eyes there
cleaned something besides the ma
levolence of a few moments before. AS
Nathaniel stepped back from him half
laughing and putting clouds of smoke
from his pipe Marion's brother thrust
his hands into his pockets with an ex.
clamation that forcefully expressed
his appreciation of Captain Plum's
scheme.

"Gathered for the Heathen."

The Church Family Newspaper tells
the following story:
"a missionary came down to take
the Sunday services at the church of
Giggleswick-in-Craven. On behalf Of
the foreign heather a collection was
taken up. One Of the wardens offered
the box to a certain member of the
congregation who did not believe in
foreign missions.
I'm a stage whisper. heard alike by
congregation and parson, this man said
in blank vernacular, TAX it away, lad;
I'm not going to give owt.'
AT that period the collecting boxes
were taken direct into the vestry.
Down came the preacher from the
pulpit, went into the vestry, brought
out one of the boxes, and marched
straight towards the gentleman. He
offered the box to the hereto with
the naive remark: TAX what thou
wantest, lad; it has been gathered for
the heathen!'"

Is such that at times the thought Of
it freezes the blood in my veins. It
Is SO great that Strang did not hest
tate to throw me into Jail on the pre-
text that l had threatened his life.
Marion implored him to spare me the
disgrace Of a public whipping and he
replied by reading to her the COM
mandments of the kingdom. That was
last night-when you saw her through
the window. Strang Is madly infatu-
ated with her beauty and yet he dares
to go any length without fear of losing
her. She has become his slave. She
