Grinding Of Hay
Is Now Resumed
Thousands of Tons Still In
Stack to Be Delivered
Market Good

Since the snow has gone off and the
weather moderated, alfalfa hay has
been put In 1T condition to grind and
the Colorado Alfalfa Milling company
is running It's plant two ten-hour
shifts a day. The hay was too damp
to grind since the heavy snow the first
part OF December but II is believed
that conditions will be such that the
mill can be run continually until the
hay is all cared for. The work was
resumed early last week.
J. A. Mast, superintendent OF the
company, states that there are ap-
proximately 5000 tons yet to grind
and that it will be necessary to keep
the mill going as lively as possible to
get the product on the market. On
account of the delay there we're many
orders that could not be filled and
others were necessarily held. The
roads have been too bad for the farm
ers to haul with any Satisfaction until
the past few days and even in some
places where irrigation bitches over
flowed they are In bad condition.
However, they are getting In such
condition now that the farmers can
keep the mill supplied. The capacity
is 100 tons every ten hours.
The Auckland Agricultural company
has been running Its plant enough
during the past several weeks to keep
supply OF feed on hand for the large
herd Of sheep that the company is
feeding and will start within few
days to grinding the large tonnage
that IL has on the ranch. Besides
their own hay crop OF several thous-
and tons they have quite large
amount they have purchased from
others. This will keep that mill run
ming for several weeks.

and ability for which he had not given
Thorne credit, and which was totally
unexpected. although what he had
learned of his previous career might
have given him some warning. the
tables had been turned upon him by a
man whom he confidently fancied he
had entrapped beyond possibility OF
escape.
His amazement held him speechless
for a moment. but his natural re-
sourcefulness came back to him with
his returning presence OF mind. He
knew the futility OF an attempt to
struggle with his captors, he therefore
decided to try 10 reason with them.
