DIN AND not

(By NJ Long, the OraC L. of Clarcmore)
It's awful hot and getting hotter.
Streams dIking up Tor want Of
water,
And yet, we know the Lord has said:
Give us this day our daily bread"
We try to act quite reconciled
Although We see our crop is spilled:
The Chinch bugs yet are nice and
sleek,
And can easily walk across the
creek.
1t seems that something has gone
wrong,
The drouth is holding out so long,
We meet each day with awful dread.
Some guy whipped by his wife
It's said.
In our home. we've had no fuss.
Yet things have got in quite a
muss.
Hog cholera took the turkey crop.
The hoks died off for want of Stop.
md yet the awful drouth remains
Dry farming sure takes lots Of
pains
I've read the books, I've tried the
plan
But it takes some water to make a
man.

The agreement entered into by a

Interesting memories Of the origin and
development Of this phase of the turf
Although racing was well established
i'm England late in the eighteenth CEN
tury il was not until some years later
th-t the upst,r made his appearance.
SO FAR as turf history can bc relied
on. Daniel Dawson was the originator
of tipping He first came into promi
o. u.uCc in and about the course at
Newmarket during 1907. Although
absolutely illitcrate he was a shrcWd
Judge Of race horses ability and
soon became known as "a remarkable
forecastcr of winners. His fame
spread rapidly and his tops were In
great demand by those who desired
10 wager on the results of the various
races. He proiited exceedingly at his
novel vocation until he fell in with
several educated and clever rOgucs.
His new companions hit upon the
plan of using DNwsons fame as a
means of executing sensational bet
ting coupes. lie was influenced to
name probable winners of big stakes
D week or mere In advance Of the
races. thus causing heavy play on the
fayoritc. while other entries were neg
leCted. Then Dawson was furnished
with poison by which he eliminated
ia. public choice, leaving the field
clear for cleanup 10y his hackers.
The scheme was exposed when Lord
Foley lost three Of his best racers at
Newmarket in 1871. Dawson and "a
confederate named Bishop were ar
rested and the latter turned kings ev-
Id.ncr. Dawson was convicted Of this
and similar charges under an act
(which made it capital offcnsc to ma
feiouslv destroy horses and cattle.
Dawson was hnnged at the top Of
Cambridge castle IN the autumn of
1872 before more than 10000 specta-

FARMERS CONGRESS

The fourth annual session of the
Farmers Congress of Colorado
which met at Fort Collins, January,
1917, 1913, was in many respects the
most satisfactory meeting of this body
which has been held. While the rep
resentation was not as complete as
could be wished, the discussions we're
particularly frank and helpful. AS
result of this discussion, the Congress
appointed q Legislative Committee, OF

legislation as is believed to be of ad-
vantage to the farmers of Colorado.

stantly spreading. The Government
with the assistance of State authori-
,e:s undertook first to control the dis
ease and later to stamp it out. This
work has been SO successful that most
OF the infected territory has been freed
of the disease and relt ased rom quar-
antine. The territory still remaining
in quarantine consists of the Stat, 8
OF Texas and New Mexico and parts
OF California, Nevada, Utah, Colora-
do, Arizona and Kentucky. The work
OF eradication is being continued in
these areas.
