A gricultural Society
Met on 18th. inst.

Ah0 DCH Lii NOuAoy AZ lSul-
ture Society met on the 18th OF
September, 1912. They re-a firm
ed their resolutions in paying but
fifty cents per hundred for picking
cotton. The committees from the
different districts of the county
report everything working we'll in
their districts except in the Ash
ton District where two parties
we're giving more than Fifty cents
per hundred, and one in the Fltz.
gerald District. After some dis
cussion in regard to those giving
more than Fifty cents per hundred
1t was decided upon by those pres
ent that the members of the socie-
ty who are neighoors to those
parties to prevail with them to
Join the organization and quit |
paving more than Fifty cents for
cotton picking, as the stringeLcy
of the times and 1the scarcity of
the cotton will not justify them in
paying more. We cannot under
stand why anyone should want to
raise the price when experience
and common sense will teach
everyone that they can get more
cotton picked for Fifty cents than
they can for more. We understand
the argument is that they have to
pay more in order to get hands.
this argument is fake. as every
one knows that as the price is
raised that 1t will make no more
cotton pickers, but will cause those
that do pick to pick fewer days in
the week and less cotton as they
only want SO much to live on, and
if they can make that in two days
by picking four hundred pounds
of cotton they will loaf the rest OF
the week.
Now my fellow farmers let US
come together and use some com
mon sense ard save what we havt
toiled for for'nine months and not
give it 70 an idIesome aid worth
less class Of people to be thl wn
away.
1t has often been said that the
farmers did not have sense enough
to stick together and do business,
now NV friends just prove that
this is untrue by uniting rs one
man and doing business on busi-
ness principals, not only in gather
ing the cotton crop but in al Of
our business transactions.
After very instructive and
business talk by President Martin
the meeting adjourned until the
FIRST Saturday in October at Ten
O'Clock n.
Every member Of the ssociety
and every farmer in Ben Hill and
adjoining counties are cordially
invited to meet with Us in our
next meeting, and we especially in
vite our friends from Irwin County
to meet with US on that day.

Many a woman endures with noble

hopeless of relief because she doesn t

WITH THE POULTRY

The farmer who desires to have a
supply of winter eggs must raise every
year enough pullets TO replace a por-
tion of his old stock, and these pulIcts
should be Matched so as to lay at the
opening Of winter say November
Tie best time to hatch must be ac-
curately gagged and must depend upon
the breed. Pullets of the smaller
breeds viii lay at five months old, and
should not be hatched before May or
June, lest they begin laying too soon,
and stop again at the approach of win
ter. But pullets of the slow maturing
breeds must be hatched from six to
eight months before they are required
to lay.
1t is essential to success that per-
son select the breed of fowls best suited
to his requirements There is no breed
that can be recommended as the
best without knowledge of what is
to be expected or required of them.
There are general purposes fowls that
possess both market and egg laying
qualities there are others that are most
prolific egg producers, but lacking IN
market qualities as some of the smaller
breeds, and there are stiN others that
possess all the qualities of A No.
market fowl, but lacking in egg pro-
duction. First make up your mind
what you are going to require of your
fowls, and then select the breed that
will most satisfactorily meet these re
quirements.
The hens to lay well in cold weathe
must have plenty of exercise. If they
are to be confined, give them deep
litter of straw to scratch in, and place
the grain feed in this straw so they
will scratch. Inactive hens will not
lay. 1t is a good plan on the farm to
allow the chickens the run of all the
barn and stables during the day. They
will do no damage at This time an
will secure a lot of feed that would
otherwise go to waste. In securing 4
they will be compelled to exercise,
which will promote laying. Also the
barn is a dry, warm place for fowls
in winter, and dryness and warmth are
great factors in their health and pro
ductiveness. They can easily be shut
out of the barn at night.

SHERMAN CALLS US

Readers of newspapers who occasion
ally find a Typographical or srammat-
icaI error in their favorite paper have
but very faint conception of how
badly the editor is mort fled when he
discovers that same error, usually but
a short time after the last paper has
been run through the press. But the
editor knows that mistakes are inevita-
with the knowledge that the other fel-
lows all make them and he keeps still
and hides behind the hope that but
few of his readers will discover the
blunder.
But usually some proofreading cdi-
tor, in. scanning hi, exchanges, finds
his trained eye resting right on that
error while the critical editor takes h,>
trusty faber and proceeds to ''bawl
out, - his hlundering neighbor.
That's Just what happened to as last
week when Editor Sherman of tha
Pa isade Tribune having noticed that
in our last issue in 1911 we allowed
the intelligent compositor' to drop
the letter GA from the worl
"launched.'
But Sherman was so complimentary In
the balance of his article that we
gladly forgive his little jolly at our
expense at the close of his article
which is as follows:

could have desired financially, but h.

he felt his duty lay and has advocated

the financial returns came his way Or

SCHOOL NOTES

The basketball season opened with
crash last week and viii probably con
tinue until the early part of March.
The game of Friday, the fifth, was a
crash, but when the source has been
considered, the catastrophe is imme.
diately seen to lose the greater par.
of its effect, and our showing against
the team was better than that Of
Grand Junction and other teams of the
western slope.
All of the Glenwood fellows looked
very small as they lined up beside the
Boulder boys and a great many who
saw them were in doubht as to whether
they would even make a score. THIS
doubt, however, was soon dispelled
when the two teams got into action
the Boulder team having hard time
at first to keep the ball away from
their own territory. One of the mo
surprising features of the game was
the fact that eight fouls were called
against the University during tine
game, whereas, only two were called
against the home team. This shows
certain amount of roughDplaying Oh
the part of the visitors, and consid-
cradle amount of open, clean playing
ON the part of the local boys, of which
Glenwood is justly proud.
y dance was givea the boys immc-
diately after the game. Punch was
served and the dancing kept up until
an exceptionally late hour, everyone
apparently having splendid time. Mr.
Girdler and Mr.. Stoddard were both
there. Mr. Girdler left, however, b..
fore the entertainment was over be
cause no one would ask him to dance.
The money taken in at the game fell
little short of the required amount,
but on the whole the financial standing
of the association is better than it has
been for several years past. If mum
Der of the students who have not paid
their dues for several months would
surprise the association by paying u.
there would be dollar or two in the
treasury.
The sewing room which was some
time ago moved into the old second
grade room has been equipped with
electric lights and the floor has been
covered with linoleum which makes
it much more pleasant for the girls to
sew in. 1t has also been noticed that
Mr.. Stoddari takes crowd of boys
down there every day since it has been
fixed PIP. They say it is a history
class, but it looks suspicious.
The mid-year examinations were held
on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday II
this week. All the students are sleep-
, ing peacefully tonight

THAT GREAT FIRE in New York
this week emphasizes the folly of calling
course some buildings are much less
liable to take fire than are others, but
at the same time the destruction of the
building and the great Baltimore con

buildings proves that we have not yet
attained the knowledge of constructing

THE DIRECT LEGISLATION league


has a wonderful scheme scheme that
must have been the result of the burn
ing of much midnight oil to say noih-
ing of sundry, divers and numerous
libations to bring forth. Any paper n
the state which cspouses the cause OF
this scintillatng galaxy of self sacri-
fcing and self appointed patriots, will
have its name inscribed in letters Of
solid gold upon the leagues roll of
honor. 1t gives us cXcruclating pain to
even think that the name of the Steam
boat Pilot viii not appear upon the
list. Every newspape. man. like every
other man, has an ideal. Possibly the
Pilot hitehed its wagon to star or
tried to grab the unattainable, but It's
highest ambition has been to have its
name in this list-in fact. to have it
right between the Arapahoe Republican
and the Fort Morgan Herald. Think OF
the honor of it, and the glory of it!
But that is not all. There is more that
we have missed. Just think of our
hobnobbing with our old friends Leo
Vincent, Johnnie Gabriel, George
Creel, Claude Street, George Hosmer,
Lydia Pinkham and the rest of the
unselfish patriots who are working dav
arol night and at meal times to fix NJ
a lot of laws for the people of Colo
rado to pass! This is the blow that
almost killed father! Steamboat Pilot.
