WHO HAS RIGHT TO
NEGOTIATE LEASES
Colorado Decision Denies the
Right of Directors to En-
cumber Property.

The leasing system I'm mining has been
than one district, and II frequently is
pointed TO as the solution of difficulties
OF company lacking funds 10 do its
own work. But an Interesting question
has been raised in Colorado over the
right OF the directors TO let lease upon
the property without the express consent
OF the stockholders There has been u
decision rendered which holds that tho
directors have not the right TO negotiate
leases without such consent, for lease
constitutes an encumbrance upon the
property and only shareholders have the
right TO cucumber their property.
feet Utah and Nevada companies is not
definitely known. but the general prac-
tice has been for the board Of directors
10 negotiate these leases. IT Is an inter-
esting question, and while II may never
arise IN Utah. then again 1t may. IL ap-
pears that the directors OF Colorado
company leased the whole property for
a period of years and at terms which the
stockholders did not consider equitable.
They brought suit to cancel the lease
and they we're successful In their conten-
tion.
Leases In Utah ordinarily are confined
TO certain small blocks OF ground with a
graduated royalty, according TO the
grades of ore produced, usually contain
Ing a clause that the owning company
tions before the expiration OF the same,
AS q general rule there should be no
question but what the courts would cam
eel lease made by the directors should
the shareholders show that such q con-
tract WAS against their interests. Espe-
cialy II the articles Of incorporation do
not give the directors the right TO nego-
tate leases.

Keep Hoes Free From Worms.

II is a matter of general belief that
in very many cases hog cholera is not
hog cholera, says the Kansas Farmer.
In other words. when hogs die they are
generally said to be taken off with
cholera. when the facts are that it was
worms. and one of our Missouri read
ers states that in his neighborhood a
considerable number of pigs and shotes
were lost. but as the old hogs did not
sicken and die they made an ~investiga-
ton Inc found that it was not cholera,
as they had supposed. but that the
hogs were suffering from worms.
There can be no doubt that intestinal
worms are the source of very severe
losses. and, as they give rise to symp-
toms similar in some respects to those
of cholera. the hogs that die from
soress SSe very often thought to have
contracted the cholera. when a little
care on the part of the owner in ad-
miniStering worm remedies would
have saved them.

Care of Brood Mares.

Brood mares should. of course, be
well sheltered both in summer and
winter, but not to the exclusion Of
plenty of sunlight, fresh air and exer-
else. Handle them carefully and feed
intelligently. Give the mare a mini
mum of corr and a maximum of pro-
tein bearing feed. such as oats, bran
and alfalfa. When she is not work
ing let her have the run of a pasture
or lot. with an open shed to protect
her from heat or sudden storms.

THE RLEAT OF THE SHEEP.

Broad back and square Shout
ders r marks Of a good sire.
You can keep 100 sheep on fifty
acres Of good land.
Too little value Is generally
placed on first class males. A
noted breeder of sheep once re-
fused to sell his best ram for
$1,000 and when asked why re-
piled that he could not afford to
sell such al animal unless he
was ready to go out of the bust
ness Of breeding.
On high priced land the price
of wool should be a secondary
consideration. The lambs should
be depended on for the principal
profit.
Let the ewes have the run of
the cornfields after the grain is
taken out. They will get lots
of good feed there.
Sheep and other nervous ami
mails which are being fattened
for market should be kept as
quiet as possible or their feed
will not do them the most good.
The more you handle the live
stock in a gentle and confiding
way the better they will do.

Some Points to Remember When Sc
iecting Cows and Bulls.

Some Points to Remember When Sc
iectins Cows and Bulls.
In selecting dairy cattle the real test
must be the scales and the Babcock
tester. The COW is a machine to con
vert food into milk: thus she must have
a large middle and a strong conStitu-
ton to insure best results. She must
also have Il large udder, large milk
wells, large crooked milk veins and
good sized teats. Her head should be
lean and angular in appearance. with
the eyes standing out prominently. The
neck should be rather long and lean in
appearance, the shoulders pointed and
the backbone rather prominent. The
skin should be loose and soft to the
touch.
In selecting herd bulls either mature
animals which have already demon
strated their worth as sires or younger
animals from high testing dams and
sires only should be used. The best
and sureSt results will always follow
the use Of IA mature sire which has
sired heifers with good records.
A good dairy bull should be kept until
he is twelve or fifteen years old-in
fact. as long as he is a sure sire. Real
good sires are so rare that when we do
find one he should die only of old age.
All breeders of dairy cattle should Sc
cure yearly tests on each and every
cow in the herd. Shorter tests do not
really mean very much. 1t is the cow
that stays by her job that is really
valuable. w. ]. Kennedy, Iowa Elk

| wish to add a bit of my w ex-
p~erience, as it may help others who
are trying to solve the veXing Ques-
ton of the high cost of living, says
a correspondent of the American Ag-
riculturist.
The keeping of milk goats will cut
the high cost of living Of one very i'm
portant item. and that is milk. Milk to
be good and wholesome should be
free of tuberculosis. and that is an
ailment that the goat is not subject
to. The milk is equal to, and | con-
slider it better than. the best Of COW
milk.
The cost of keeping goats where
you have to buy all the feed is about 5
cents a day per head. Six months
of the year the cost is practically moth
ing if you have a lawn or some back
land where the grass grows, as that
will keep them very nicely. No grain
is necessary when they can have all
the grass they want. Goats should
not be tethered on the same spot two
days in succession. 1t is better to give
them about eight feet of rope or light
chain and shift them once a day.
A goat that will give two and a halt
quarts a day is considered a very
good one. Of course there are those
that give more, but they are fewer
than those that give less. The Toggen

CONDITION OF FLEECE
COUNTS IN SELLING

When packing, the fleeces Of ewes,
lambs, rams and wethers should be
packed separately. In small focks it
is hardly advisable to pack them in sep
arate bags, but they can be separated
in the bag by sheets Of stiff, strong pa
per so that they can be easily sorted at
the market.
A bag containing a certain kind of
wool should be marked so that its con
tents are known. Tags and wool from
dead sheep should be packed separate

are black or gray leeces either they
should be packed separately or their
location should be designated.
If the wool is not sold Immediately
after shearing it should be stored in
a clean, dry place. 1t should not be
left on the bare ground ever though
it is placed in bags. 1t is the better

The bags should be closely woven sc
they will effectively keep out dust and

that will not. shed particles of fiber
into the WOOL.
The closely woven jute bags com.
monty used are satisfactory in neither

kick each other. Better be a little too
