ALFALFA AND BROOD MARES
Hay Has Great Field Of Usefulness In
Feeding All Classes of Live
Stock-Graln Needed.

Alfalfa hay has very great field or
usefulness in feeding all classes Of
live stock under western conditions.
1t cannot be safely fed to brood mares,
however, in unlimited quantities.
From some sections Of the irrigat-
ed belt have come reports Of a large
percentage of colts born dead or weak
and deformed. In some cases an over
used and defective stallion is undoubt-
edly responsible. In many cases, how
ever when colts are lost in the man
ner before mentioned. the farmers are
feeding alfalfa hay and alfalfa alone
to their mares 1t should not be SO
fed. For best results with the brood
mare some grain should be fed in ad-
dition to the hay In case 1t is desfr-
ed to feed a large amount of hay as
compared with the grain, the hay ra-
ton will be improved and made safer
by combining wild hay, timothy, or
even oat or wheat straw with the al
falfa. In no event should a brood
mare weighing 1900 to 1900 pounds
be fed more than Is or l6 pounds Of
allalla daily,
A sole ration of alfalfa hay contains
a much larger proportion of nitrogen
than the in-foal mare needs or can
use. The surplus must be eliminated
as a waste and this condition lays an
extra burden on the digestive tract
and on the organs of elimination.
Especially heavy is the labor placed
on the kidneys.
There are probably many cases
where large quantities of alfalfa ha.,
been fed to brood mares without ap-
parent injurious effects. There is un-
questionable danger of abortion and
weak and defective colts from such
practice. The farmer and horse
breeder will be wise to play safe and
substitute grain or other hays in place
of a portion of the alfalfa.

served by the Ladies.
The girls and boys of Clear
Creek Valley Grange are making
progress on their plays which
they intend giving Friday, April

act play entitled "Lucy's Lover"
the boys play is one of the best
newspaper plays ever staged, en-
titled The Editor in Chief. -

IRRIGATION NEW IN SPAIN
Government Starts Work on Plans
Calling for Expenditure Of $780,.
0oo-Ten Branches to Canal.

During the four months from June
to September practically no rain falls
in the province Of Andalusia, Spain
As n result n large area of fertile soil
which should be highly productive is
almost idle, the frequency of droughts
and the small annual rainfall discour
aging agriculture.
To remedy this condition the gov
ernment has started work on irriga.
tion plans calling for the expenditure
of sS15G,O00 Work has already
been begun on long irrigation canal
whicr will ultimately have ten
branches, the aggregate length of the
main artery and branches being 153
miles The main canal viii have n
length OF SO miles and will be com
pleted in six years.
The project has been brought to
the attention OF American firms inter.
ested in this work. with the Idea that
they may secure concessions on con.
ditions similar TO those under which
irrigation has been provided for arid
sections in the United States. 1t is
suggested that responsible syndicate
could acquire rights for the installa-
ton OF electric power plants for in
dustrial purposes. to utilize the tre-
mendous power of the water gates.

NO ELECTION
WILL Be HELD

There will be no spring election
in Arvada this year. At the mass
meeting held to nominate town
officers it was voted to let the
election go by default as there
was only one change to be made
in the old board, provided the
board would meet, accept H.
Reno's resignation and swear in
Geo. 2. Campbell in his place.
This was. done Friday night at a
special meeting of the board.
The only difference this will
make is the entire board will go
out and a new set of officers will
be elected.

y In last weeks Sun appeared a
lengthy article endeavoring to
show that the Republican con-
ventions were open and without
dictation. Now, as long as the
Sun editor has been mixed up in
politics and connected with the
Golden gang" he ought to know
better and does, too, even if he
will not admit it. If there are
no bosses" in the Republican
party in Jefferson county, how
could a prominent candidate Of

specified number of Republican
votes to Democrat at the poles

When this question is answered
satisfactorily we will ask another

THE POSTAL FRANK ABUSE.

In the recent political cam zpaign in Mas SachusrtiS. 10000 pieces of mail daily were deliver ed through tn" Boston poslonicr alone under the postal franks of Congressman Mckinley or Srna- tor Dixon. representing inc Taft and Roosevelt forces. and tons of inc matter were sent through Oui postoffices in Inc SIair. Of course this matter was campaign liIrra- lure for the two contestants for The Republican, nOniIlal ion for inc presidency. The mails were being used for purely private po- 'iitical purposes and the people paid the bills.
 Several years ago congress siOnal commiS sion. after careful investigation, reported that the franking privilege of congress- -men was costing Inc pOstOnicc department at least SiO,OOO, ,OOO, Ur more than thc amount of the postal deficit at that time. This commission also reported that
 ne-cent letter postage would be possible if the franking abuses were eliminated.
 This abuse has continued for many years. IL will continue un- ail the people become aroused to The point of refusing to pay inc postage bills of candidates for :Uffice.
