Intervention Sure

The killing by General villa OF
William s. Benton. a wealthy sub
tect of Great Britain. is almost sure
to bring about Intervention In Mex
leo and 1t Is hoped that some de-
gree of law and order may follow.
1t Is a shame to have to admit 1t.
but the fact remains that had al
American been killed the result
would have been just moral suasion
gently brought to bear and after
years of negotiation after the in
cident had been forgotten per-
haps some monetary damages paid.
Johnny Bull. however. is not quite
so careless of the lives of his sub
iects and the killing of an English
man is a crime wherever 1t may be
committed. The English govern
ment will pay enough respect to the
Monroe doctrine to give this coun-
try a reasonable time to show It's
hand and then If nothing has been
done, the British lion will be heard
from.

Monster SilO at Iaas Animas

The largest single silo contract
so far recorded In the state was
made in Las Animas recently be-
tween willard A. Wight of that
city and G. II. Hinman of the
Colorado Concrete Silo company OF
Fort Collins. Mr.. Wight will con-
struct four silos, two of them 60
feet high and 16 feet In diameter
and one forty feet high with a IL
foot water tank on top. This tank
will furnish water under heavy
pressure for the extensive feeding
yards as well as provide water for
fire protection. Mr.. Wight has
made a thorough study of silo con-
struction and became convinced
that no greater opportunity for
economy in the cost of production
exists than that furnished by the
silo, and the same study convinced
him that the concrete silo would
meet his needs better than other

Colorado Good Roads Association
has commenced an active member
ship campaign. This week the cam
paign will be conducted in Den
yer, while later on it will be car
ried into every county in the
state.
1t is planned to increase the mem
bership of the association to at
least 5000 in all parts of Colo
RADIO. This membership will be di-
vided into two classes, the first
known as the contributing member
ship, and the SECOND as subscribing
membership. In Denver the Motor
Club is actively interested not on
ly in the work of the state associa-
ton, but also in the mem bership
campaign now under way, and dur
ing the coming week every MEM
Der of the Denver Motor Club will

In the meantime a committee of
attorneys consisting of j. w. Kelly,
John w. Barnett and Halsted Rit-
ter are at work preparing the
soon as they have a draft of the bill
prepared it will be submitted to
the attorney general for approval,
and later methods to be adopted
in the campaign for good roads
throughout colorado will be con
sidered by the executive committee
of the Good Roads Association
and by a similar committee from
the County Commissioners Associa-
tion of the state. These two Or
ganizations have united to secure
the Passage of the proposed meas
ure.
During the week there has also
been sent to all county commission
ers, and to all members of the
Colorado Good Roads Association
copies of pamphlet which has
been issued containing the princi-
pal addresses delivered at a recent
convention at Colorado Springs.
The resolutions adopted at this
convention are also printed, and
space is given therein as to the
why and wherefore of the propos-
ed half mill levy. This pamphlet
will be distributed to all on request
at the headquarters of the Colo

Work of completing the organi-
cation of the association is also
progressing rapidly. and in more
than half the counties of the state
the chairman of the board of COM
mis3ioners has accepted the ap-
pointmeLt of vice president to rep
resent his county in the work to be
cerTied on tbio fall.
Other plans now being worked
out also call for an extensive pub

FARMERS wAsTEjMUCH EVERY
YEAR
Sugar Iseet Man Gives II Highly
Interesting and Profitable
Address

That the farmers In the Arkansas
valley have been wasting thousands
OF dollars worth of bi-products each
wear was proven to the members
of the Otero County Agricultural
association in an address made to
them by Mr.. Carr Of the Holly Sug-
ar company at the meeting of Sat
urday. and that the farmers are
awake to this fact was also PROV
en- by statements made by the speal
er.
As an illustration OF the awak
ening of the farmer to the faci
that his ground must be fertiliz
ed. Mr.. Carr stated that the Hol-
ly company had a hard time in CIV
Ing away the fertilizer from the
iced yards near the factory. but
that this spring the farmers were
crazy for it and were putting tons
OF it on their lands at cost OF
about 81 per ton, which was u good
investment. He argued that the
farmer would be much better off
II he would keep the stock him
self and get the fertilizer in that
way, and that he would be ahead
of the game IL all he got was the
fertilizer.
According to the speaker the BIZ
products are not taken care of as
they are in other parts of the
country. and he stated that even in
other parts OF Colorado the farmer
was using better judgments in the
CONSERVATION OF eyary ppo16cr.
The speaker claimed that as n
general thing the fertiliser that
was made on the farm was not pro-
perly cared for; that the beet tops
which, II dried and cared for are
worth SIS per ton for feed. are
allowed to mould in the field. be-
coming a menace to any kind of
stock.
1T is not the number of acres
that we have in crops" said the
speaker, but what we can produce
from an acre." and by illustration
Its was proven that the farmer VINO
was paying proper attention to
the fertilization of his ground and
the frequent rotation of his crop.
was the one that was winning and
who was making more off single
acre of ground than his neigbbor
was making off of any two acres.
The speaker touched at some
length on the rotation of crops and
claimed that beets should not be
grown for more than three or four
seasons on the same land without
rotation. He also claimed that the
farmer was winner who in break
ing up a field of alfalfa, pIowed it
under before making the third cut
ting as IL the field was to be
changed tn, alfalfa plowed under
at this time was worth more to
the land thai; the third cutting g.:
hay would be to the farmer for
feed
Mr.. Carr stated that altogether
too much water was used by the
average farmer. and that suffi-
cient amount Of water went to waste
in the valley to water all the nom
irrigated land. He advocated twice
the amount of fertilization now
used, twice the cultivation, and a
great deal less water.
The matter of the waste land on
almost every farm that could easily
be brought to high state of cul-
tivation was touched upon and the
farmer urged to put every inch of
this land to some purpose than the
growing of weeds.
