foALIN FLIRfS WITH A
SCHOOL NA'AN

Reveille TOmlin went to Glenwood on
Tuesday afternoon returning on the
night train. The object of the trip
was business, but a pleasure trip re-
suited before train time at night. By
chance he met Mrs Tippet Westerman
County Superintendent of Schools, who
kindly invited him to 60 with the mem
bers of the. teachers institute to the
'Flooms' which is the source of water
supply for the city of Glenwood Springs
The object OF the trip was bacon fry
and marshmallow toast at the top of the
hil about two miles up the canon from
Glenwood. Although the invitation was
accepted it was not without some temer-
ity for he was only the fifth mere man
of the crowd of about seventy-fve
school teachers. The balance of the
seventy was made up of some very
beautiful young ladies, some who were
young but not SO beautiful, and still
others who were beautiful but not so
young, and strange to say, there were
none who were neither young nor beau
tiful. At any rate the trip was most
enjoyable one and the writer was amply
taken care of both as to his physical
being and his ravenous appetite which
had developed far beyond normal by
the time the party reached the top of
the hill. Those in the party from Rife
were Miss Charlott Miller, Miss Ella
Saylor, Miss Laura Sheba', Miss Clara
Selby, and Chester Cochran, now Of
Grand Valley. The writer had the
pleasure of meeting Mrs. Ridgway a
former acquaintance of Salida who is
now superintendent of schools in
Chaffee county.-Rife Reveille.

n.ver, August lo.-Gevernor Cal
son will probably eau an executive Sc
sien of the senate WITHIN the next ten
days to confirm several appointments
he has made. Since the legislature ad-
journed the governor has appointed q
bank commissioner, the warden OF the
reformatory, five division engineers,
and a number of other persons TO 20
ocrat holding the office has declined -
vacate Oh the ground that the appoint
ments have not been confirmed by the
senate.
The Democrats have found a section
in the seventh Colorado statutes, which
seems to justify their contentious that
certain appointments must be confirmed
Especially is this true in the ease OF
the five division engineers. A prom
inent attorney in the city has advised
the Democrats that they can hold the
Office until the senate has confirmed
their successors.
About the only way to get around
the situation is for the governor T.
call his senate in executive session and
have the members confirm his appoint
ments. There are only eighteen Repnb-
lieans and the governor needs all eight
cen to make the confirmation. He Is
accordingly getting assurances from the
eighteen that they will vote to coz
firm before going to the expense of the
session of the senate. Under the con
stitution the governor can call either
house or senate at his own discretion.

SUMMER CARE OF RAsPBERR1Es

During the fruiting season the soil
of the raspberry Plantation should
never be permitted to become dry. Lack
of abundant moisture results in small
and seedy berries, poor yield and quail
ity. Over 80 per cent Of the weight Of
the berries is water and when this ele-
ment of plant food is lacking the fruit
cannot develop to the normal size.
As soon as the fruiting season is
over, all the canes that have fruitei
should be cut out close to the ground
so as not TO leave any stumps sticking
out and thus interfere with subsequent
pruning and cultivation. All the old
canes should be burned so as not to
scatter disease to the young growing
canes. The plantation should then be
thoroughly cultivated and kept in grow
ing condition until about the first Of
September. About twelve of the young
canes should be left for the next years
fruiting. The balance should be re-
moved and burned. The removal #
superfluous shoots will permit the re-
manning canes to grow stronger. Fertil-
izers, especially barn yard fertilizers
should not be applied during the sum
mer mon this. The plantation should at
all times be kept free from weeds AMI
the soil kept mellow by cultivation.-E.

Remember the hogs need charcoal

are fit.

EXPERIMENT WITH HOG FEED
Obtained in Test Held at the
Wisconsin Station.

The relative value Of potatoes and
corn as feed for hogs, obtained in a
test at the Wisconsin station, is given
as follows:
Four hundred pounds cornmeal fed
alone produced 100 pounds gain; 262
pounds cornmeal with 7s6 pounds OF
potatoes, weighed before cooking, pro-
duced the same number of pounds
gain.
Professor Henry who conducted the
experiments, says: From this We
learn that 7S6 pounds of potatoes
when fed TO pigs after being cooked,
effected saving Of IFS pounds OF
cornmeal. 442 pounds OF potatoes TAX
ing the place of 100 pounds of corn
meal"
Professor Henry In his look Feeds
and Feeding" also says tnat the Cop
enhagen station found 400 pounds of
cooked potatoes equal TO 100 pounds
OF mixed grains for swine. Since
corn has somewhat higher feeding
value than the grains used in this test.
ii is fair TO say that As bushels GO
pounds each) OF potatoes after cook
ing. are equal to one bushel CSC

1t Is Not Number so Much as Quality
and Care Given That Combine to
Bring in Net Results.

A few sheep, a small herd of cows,
one or two good brood sows, a flock
Of Plymouth Rocks or Wyandotte
hens, and a few turkeys, on a small
farm, well cared for, will bring bet
ter net results than large flocks, big
herds and big droves. 1t is not the
number so much as the quality and
the care given that combine the net
results; some men think they must
have a big farm to make anything;
such men often make out of pocket.
There is economy in working as much
land and growing as many crops as
can be well taken care of, but there
is no economy in attempting more
than can be we'll done.
A veteran farmer used to say that
he planned his work in the winter
SO that he would have under cultiva-
ton just what could be thoroughly
worked with his regular help, and he
was usually able to get his work done
at the proper time, and was not
Obliged to slight his work. And he
generally managed to have as good
crops as any of his neighbors and
he did not work hard, either. If farm
ers would but take lesson from this.
break up less land and spend more
time in thoroughly fitting it for the
crop they would have time to cultivate
it more thoroughly and to harvest it
in proper condition and attain larger
crops from the small area than they
do from the larger
