State Auditor Refuses Governors Re-
quest For Settlement Of Bills.
Denver-State Auditor Ready Kene.
han refused Governor Ammons' re-
quest that he give certificates of in
debtedness to claimants for the
amount of s24,555 in claims filed with
the state auditor by the military board
for the purchase of 271 horses.
In a letter to the governor kenehan
states that the claims. which were
approved by the military board Jan.
10. 1914, show instances of horses
charged twice. This, he says, indi-
Gates that the board must have made
a careless examination on the claims.
He cannot he states, approve these
claims as they stand.
In the letter to the governor kene-
han recounts his trip to Trinidad to
check up the claims presented for the
horses, and charges that General
Chase and ether officers of the militia
prevented him from making proper
investigation.
The members of the military board
state that Kenehan sis making q
mountain cut of mole hill" and
that the only discrepancies in the
horse claims were due to clerical
errors.

CARING FOR YOUNG ALFALFA
Mower Should Be Run Over Foot-High
Crop About Four to Six Inches
from the Ground.

When the young alfalfa is about
foot high. run the mower over it and
clip off the heads, setting the mower
about four to six inches from the
ground. Leave the clippings on the
ground. Do this second time along
in late August or early September.
THE object of leaving the clippings on
the ground is to provide as much OF
a mulch as possible and prevent the
drying out OF the surface. After the
second clipping, let the crop grow up
to the time Of frost and by this time
there should be sufficient stand to
make a good catch for the snow. 1t
should be remembered that the bare
spots are those likely to kill out. but
fair snow covering is a reasonably
good protection.

$4,000 Fund For Fair Building.

Denver. = Governor Ammons and
the Panama-Pacific board of the
Chamber of Commerce met to discuss
plans for raising $4,000 for state
building at the Panama-Pacific eXposi-
tion next year. A plan under corsid-
Grafton is to have moving pictures
taken throughout the state to be
shown at the exposition during the
entire time it is open to the public.
A charge of S. per foot for making
and displaying these films during the
exposition will give $4,000 revenue
for 10000 feet of film.

Vote on Socialism.

Under the British trade union act,
1912, it was laid down that before any
union could contribute from its funds
to the support of a political party it
must take ballot Of its members.
Provision was also made safeguarding
the minority from being compelled to
pay towards the support of political
opinions from which they differ. Trade
unionists of the United Kingdom have
just balloted on the proposition of pay
ing Socialist members of parliament.
The vote as announced was: For. 46i.-

WANTED TO KNOW
The Truth About Grape-Nuts Food.

1t doesn't matter SO much what you
that counts. And correct knowledge
is most likely to come from personal
experience.
About a year ago." writes N. Y.
man, Il was bothered by Indigestion,
especially during the forenoon. l tried
several remedies without any perma-
nent improvement.
My breakfast usually consisted OF
oatmeal, steak or chops, bread, coffee
and some fruit.
Hearing SO much about Grape-Nuts,
l concluded to give 1t trial and find
out If all had heard Of it was true.
so / began with Grape-Nuts and
cream. soft boiled eggs, toast, cup of
Postum and some fruit. Before the
end of the first week was rid OF the
acfdity of the stomach and felt much
relieved.
by the end Of the second week all
traces of Indigestion had disappeared
and I was in first rate health once
more. Before beginning this course of
diet, never had any appetite for
lunch, but now can enjoy the meal

SUMMER TITLED FIELD.
LINE OF WORK THAT IS NOT GEN.
ERALLY UNDERSTOOD.
Soon as One Crop 10 Removed Work
Of Preparing for Next Should Be
lossenins Surface and De-
stroyino All Weeds.

Summer tilling Is one part of better
or scientific farming that applies to
sections OF the country where the rain
fall is light and untimely and where
irrigation Is not available. writes H.
w Campbell in Dry Farming. 1t Is a
line Of work that is far from being gem
orally understood or appreciated. for
the reason that many know nothing
about II, and many more, not under
standing the principles have made mis-
takes in attempting to carry out the
work.
1t is 30 easy for us to be content In
the thought that we are doing all
right. when we really are quite wrong.
Then. again. our mind is drawn to
other fields Of work that we conceive
to be more important, causing US to
relax our consideration of the summer
titled fields. during which time they
deteriorate. either through the loss Of
moisture by direct evaporation from
excessive heat following rain or
through the growth of weeds.
At no. time between the harvest Of
one crop and the seeding Of the next
crop should field be neglected. 1t
is not alone during. the growing OF n
crop that the field, needs close atten-
ton. II it Is possible the field should
never be allowed to lose all its mois-
ture. for there Is no time when the
available plant food may be increased
through natures own medium as rap
idly as when field has no crop grow
ing. providing soil conditions are right.
The difference In the yield of grain
from the fields handled Just right as
compared with other fields where
work Is not correctly done. or slight
errors occur. is SO marked that we
cannot but insist more and more that
before the high limit of progress can
be attained in the semi-arid belt there
must be closer attention to details.
Not infrequently slight error in sum
mer tilling will make a difference Of
10 to 20 bushels in the yield Of wheat.
Timeliness of work done is one of
the vital requisites. AS soon as one
crop is removed the work should be-
gin by loosening the surface and de-
stroying all weeds or volunteer growth
The disk harrow is the best and al
most the only tool that will accom-
plish this successfully. This imple-
ment should be used by tapping half,
thus double disking. cutting to a depth
of three inches. This will leave a
loose mulch Of about four and a half
inches, which stops the upward move
ment and evaporation Of the moisture
in the soil below. causing 1t to accu
mulate in the top of the firm soil Just
below the loosened soil or mulch. Fur
ther advantage Of this loosening Is
found in the more ready percolation
or soaking down of the later rains as
they come.
To get all moisture possible into the
soil below and retain it there is the
one great problem. And until this
point is fully appreciated. both as to
the extent that It can be done. and
what it really means to the future
crops when 1t Is done. we shall never
see the progress and successful de-
velopment of the semi-arid sections
that are possible.

AFnEE BOOK
That Teaches the People How to
Avoid Catching Gold.

The thirteenth edition of the "Ills Of
Life" is now ready for distribution. Be-
ginning on page three of this popular work
on medicine. is an article stating in plain
language how any one can avoid catching
cold.
The article was written by a doctor. 1t
was written by doctor eighty-four years
old, who is hale and hearty man. 1t is
his boast, founded upon fact that he does
not catch cold. He thinks he knows the
reason why. He explains it in detail in

EuQs In Incubator,

So far as possible. all OF the eggs
placed in the incubator, or at least in
one tray of the machine. should be of
the same age within day or two. as
this will insure more uniform devel-
opment Of the embryos. Eggs for
Latching should seldom be kept longer
than three weeks. The older the egg
when set the less likely 1t is to hatch
well. Too much handling of eggs prior
to incubating is liable to result in dis.
appointing matches.

Corn is more commonly fed to poul-

other grain: and, when properly bal

most valuable grains we have. Re

more easily and thoroughly digested
than other grains. For growing stock
or laying hens. from 80 to 25 per
