the hay from this valley was in bad.
| went to Seattle and had long talk
with Ben Shields, the president of the
Spokane grain company, who had
made yearly excursions to the hay
fields of California, wiseing up on
hay making. [ talked with Mr.. Cot
ter of Puyallup, who buys two thou
sand tons or more of hay yearly for
the famous fruit growers association
of that section. I also travelled among
the farmers of part of the dairying
section of the state, getting their eX-
perience and observation as feeders.
My conclusion of the whole matter
was this: The alfalfa in this country
was being cut too mature, cured too
rapidly and often baled too green.

My Experience and Observations
With Growing Alfalfa Hay

A few years ago [ came to the
Yakima Valley and took up the life of
farmer. That meant the raising of
fruit, potatoes and hay.
AS dairyman on the Coast l had
used some alfalfa as feed. Most of
the hay we bought had coarse stems
and in order to get the benefit of the
greater part of it, it was neessarcy to
give the COWS liberal feed, let them
eat what they would, then gather up
the remainder and run it through a
hay cutter, put it in a tight tank
with bran or middlings and cook it

of alfalfa farming, so naturally turn
ed to my neighbors, that l might pro-
fit by their experience. l also read
the government bulletins The in
formation which | obtained would
apply all right to some sections but
not to this valley, with it's hot sum-
mer sun and rich soil. The custom
was to let the alfalfa bloom out quite
freely, then NOW it down, rake and
shock it, often getting it in the stack
the third or fourth day. Naturally I
followed the same lines But found
out in feeding that my horses would

scour quite badly and run down in
flesh during the hard work of the
summer, even though l grained them
well. When fed to the cow she did
not respond as she ought to and the
milk generally had a strong taste.
This put me to studying and observ-
ing to find out where the trouble was.

letting it stand in the windrow for
a day and then shocking it and let

several days to week, before stack

with live steam. By SO doing we
could use most of it as feed. How
aver, it made a good deal of extra
work, besides it was very easy to put
a COW off her feed with it, owing to
its soggy nature. Once and a while
we got hold of some hay that was
tender and well cured; this the COWS
would eat clean and the results were
always most gratifying.

Republican County Central Committee

Republican County Central Committee
A. L. Stubs. chairman of the Republi-
can County Central Committee requests
the La Junta Tribune to announce that
there will be meeting of the committee
in his office in the Simonton block. Satur-
day, March I'd. for the purpose of fixing
the date of the county convention and
arranging for the primaries to elect dele
gates to the state convention to be held in
Colorado Springs on March 9th. The
state convention will elect twelve dele
egates to the republican national conven-
ton to be held in Chicago on June 18th.
DR.. Stubs says that the question Of
holding presidential primaries. which can
be arranged for at the same time dele
gates are elected to the county conven-
ton, will be Considered and final action
be determined upon. Quite a number
of counties have already arranged
for presidential primaries. among item
being Larimer. Boulder and Ell Paso,
where the progressive sentiment Is deeid-
eddy in the ascendant.
The Tribune is of the opinion that Otero
county will be found lined up in the pro-
gressive column. No reasonable or valid
objection can be advanced in opposition
to presidential primary.
The republicans Of Otero county GER
tainly have just as much right to select
candidates to be voted for as they have to
vote for candidates themselves. and no
other republican has any right to deny
them this privilege if they have a desire
to exercise 1t. The back room method Of
nominating delegates and candidates has
been relegated to the political scrap heap
where it is hoped that it will be buried SO
deep that we will never hear of it again,

longs to the whole people and giving it to
the individual.

Land and the water to be used upon it
on the other hand are not the products
of any mans labor. They are the free gift
of Mother Nature to all her children. and to
make them the special gain and privilege
of the individual is to rob the multitude
of their birthright. That President Taft
has advised Congress that the proper
thing to do is to lease the coal fields Of
Alaska. charging probably reasonable
royalty per ton on whatever quantity Of
coal is taken out. thereby giving equal
opportunity to all the capital that wishes
to go into coal mining in that country to
do so is the notable event Of his admins
tration. How fast we are travelling in
these days. when the same president who
defended Ballinger and dismissed Pnchot
adopts the latter's program. The Wash
ington press correspondents reported last
week marked advance in Taft Presi-
dental Boom stock. There surely should
be. The man who gets new light on a
subject and has the courage to acknow-
lege it, does not always increase in po-
litical popularity. but he must greatly
increase his own self-respect.
