DRY FARMING o. X.
IN COLORADO

DehSer, may. TO- .-1Dusiuess men VI
Colorado can already see the glow of
prosperity for the dry farmer looming
on the horizon and they are backing
their anticipations with their money,
feeling tina, the investment is secure,
according to c. Reno Root, genera.
manager of the Barteldes Seed COM
pany, today.
1.-The reports that have been given
nationwide publicity .e TO the desti-
tuition among the farmers of Colorado
are hugely exaggerated" said Mr..
Root. There is plenty of money com
ing from the dry land districts of the
state for the purchase of seed for
spring planting. As proof of this,
there have been only two applications
made to our company this spring for
credit, and these were by mail.
Every man who has come in person
to purchase seed has said nothing about
money. When they get what they
want they draw draft for the amount
and ask no further particulars.
ION the other hand, in many in
stances the people of these dry farm
ing districts have seed to sell l re-
ceiyed a telephone call from Fleming
today stating that carload Of cora
would be loaded out to us from there
tomorrow. At Payton the people have
all of the varieties needed in the way
of seed. They are advertising cane,
alfalfa, and seed oats for sale and de-
clare they have an abundance of seed
to dispose of.
81 have received communication
from Ha1tun, in Phillips county, which
reports that they have seed to sell by
the carload This and other similar
reports have come from the heart Of
the districts where the farmers have
been reported destitute.
"There may be certain families in
these districts who are suffering hard
ships. That is the case in almost any
community. l believe that there would
be no cause for any povertystrieken
people in the dry lands of the state if
the people would apply themselvea.
The banks are rallying to the support
of those who need money and have no
fear that their money is not being safe
loaned
Men of finance are not hopeless be-
cause there have been few years
drought in Colorado, but are going
ahead with all confidence in what this
years crop will bring about.
"There are certain factions who are
always fighting the dry farmer. The
irrigation men and the stockmen are
anxious to deliver an effective blow
to the dry farming industry. 1t is t.
their benefit to rout the dry farmer if
they can.
"There is more seed being sold for
the dry farming districts this year than
ever before. which indicates that the
farmers are not discouraged with the
prospects. There is scarcity of vari
ETY. in the seed houses of the state just
now and the demand is such that it
cannot be supplied"
Mr.. Root is member of the board
of governors of the International Dry
Farming congress, which meets at
Lethridge, Alberta, next October, and
he plans to make tour of the Cana
dian provinces and border states this
spring to familiarize himself with
farming conditions.

A FINDER OF PEOPLE

Emergencies are constant
ly arising which make it nee
essary to communicate with
persons whose exact loca-
tons are not known. In
view Of this fact Bell opera
tors everywhere give the
most scrupulous care to To-
eating people and bringing
them together in emergencies
when probably no other
means of communication
would be available.
Bell operators are trained
to follow any reasonable clue.
They have complete infor-
nation concerning residents
in every district, and can often
find parties wanted by street
addresses. occupation. busi-
ness or other indications in
the absence of names. Their
facilities for locating tram
sients are good. Messengers
are on duty at railway sta
tions. and are frequently y able
to intercept travellers by des-
cription. and bring them to
a telephone. /.
Night service is particu-
larly thorough and sympa-
thetic. for it is recognized
that calls then. when the
community is asleep, are
likely to be of the utmost
urgency.
Toll charges in emergency
messages are no higher than
ordinary rate. and in most
cases the results cannot be
weighed on a money basis.

The Wellsville Optic News says a
young man went to work for a stingy
Galloway county farmer. At o'clock
in the morning the farmer called him
to begin the days labor. In a few
minutes he came down stairs with his
grip. "You amt going to take that
grip to work, be your Nav" said
the young man, 'but l IN going to find
a place to stay all night"

WHAT ELECTRICITY WILL
DO FOR THE FARMER

For many years the cities and larger
towns of this country have been cleo
triied, meaning that they have enjoyed
an abundance of electric energy for
light and power. AS a result nearly
every wheel that turns in the city,
from the largest factory to the street
railway and the tiny motors used
about various stores and small facto-
ries, are run by electric power. Now
these electric lines, emulating the troll
ley and the telephone, are stealing out
into the country and the farmers are
adopting electric power to take the
place of hired men and horses.
To ascertain the economic values of
electricity as applied to farm work, a
corps of engineers from the General
Electric Company recently visited a
number of the most important farms
which have been electrified and made
some exhaustive tests. Some of the
most important tests were made at the
farm of William Stroop, five miles
from Dayton, Ohio. The Stroop farm
comprises l7s acres, devoted to stock
farming and the raising of grain and
fodder. Three electric motors are used,
two of which are small and devoted to
pumping, and the large 10 horse power
motor being mounted on truck and
used to drive all kinds of farm ma
chinery. Other tests We're made on
farm at Chazy, New York, where
number of electric motors are used.
A digest of some of the engineering
data collected follows:
Forty bushels of corn and cob were
power motor at total cost of 4 cents
a bushel, including labor at 15 cents
an hour and interest and depreciation
on the investment. The actual power
cost was less than cents a bushel,
electrical energy being purchased at
5 cents kilowatt-hour.
A six roll shredder and husker pro
duced nearly two tons an hour at
total cost of $s.25 ton, of which only
81 cents was the actual cost for ruE-
ming the 10 horse power motor, the
rest being for labor, depreciation, etc.
A 90 horse power motor threshed
145 bushels of barley in one hour at
a cost of 0.006 cents a -bushel for elec-
trical energy consumed.
ENnrtv.opa half h,raha1c Of
shelled corn were ground in one hour
for total cost of OO24S cents bush
el, of which O.0l36 cents was for
power.
Three washers full of soiled clothing
We're washed in 81 minutes for Az
cents, including labor, etc.
A portable vacuum cleaner cleaned
100 So. it. of floor surface for 2 cents
The horse groomer cleaned seven
horses in an hour at total cost of 3
cents per horse, including help, etc.
The cream separator handled 1900
pounds of milk an hour at a total cost
of OOPS cents per hundred; the actual
cost for current to operate the ~ horse
power motor being but O.00l9 cents
per 100 pound.
Nearly a hundred pounds of butter
were churned, washed and worked in 80
minutes at cost of but 0.244 cents,
including labor, etc.
Seven hundred and fifty pounds af
sausage were ground in one hour at
cost of 10 cents a hundred for labor
and power, etc. The cost of energy
consumed to grind 10 lb. was but
0.022 cents.
