WHAT TO 90 If THE
BLACK STEM BLIGHT
HITS YOUR ALFALFA

The following, from letter by Coun-
ty Agriculturist II. H. Simpson. of
Boulder County, to the farmers of
his district. will be of interest 10 grow
ers OF alfalfa all over Colorado. Mr.
Simpson refers to black stem blight
and has been assisted in reaching his
conclusions on the subject by Prof
W. C. Sackeit. bacteriologist, OF the
Colorado Agricultural College:
Last year your attention WIS cali
ed 10 the presence OF black stem
blight and many farmers cut their
fields. which stopped the further de-
yelopment and allowed the plants to
start new shoots Immediately Those
who cut early report very good later
cuttings and some got three good
crops for the season following this
early clipping.
III your alfalfa appears to have a
touch OF frost or to he suffering from
too much or too little water. examine
IL carefully. for the chances are that II
is this disease. True frost damage
has more of a white to light straw
color. and is usually on top OF the
plant II is true that many OF our
fields have been injured by frost aud
some are getting dry. but blight Is
really doing the great damage. and
farmers should not deceive themselves
in believing 1t something else. The
sooner We face the situation as it Is,
the less will be the drain on your farm
income.
PROMPT ACTION MUST BE
TAKEN IN ORDER To PREVENT
DAMAGE TO THE ALFALFA AND
IN ORDER TO SECURE A GOOD
YIEI d THIS YEAR. Past expert.
enee has shown that the only safe
method is to 20 in at once and CIT the
alfalfa. This will result in the start
ing OF the next crop at once and IL
this is done promptly. We may still
get three cuttings. All growth In
the diseased stem stors and nothing
is gained by leaving a field stand.
Cutting at once may also prevent the
disease going into the crown. which
usually results in the death of the
plant within year Or two

THE ANNUAL CATTLE
ROUNDUP NOW ON

The annual spring cattle roundup
on the north side of the Arkansas
river, which will include in its sweep
portions OF Fremont. Teller, Chaffee
and Park counties. began at Three
Nile spring last Thursday morning
and will continue fer several weeks
The roundup started with about thirty
horsemen and the number will lie in
creased as the drive progresses to-
ward South Park, where it will end
about the first of July. Cowboys
from all parts of the Upper Arkansas
valley are taking part in the roundup
and the affair is one of hard work,
mixed with festivity.
The chuck wagon" or commissary
department is well stocked with
things TO eat and the men will have
no complaint to make on either the
quantity or quality of grub supplied
from it. About three hundred dollars
worth OF groceries will be required
on the trip.
The roundup is expected to reach
the Alf Rowe ranch on Currant creek
sometime on Tuesday and visitors
from Canon City who desire to wit
ness the work it is carrying on can
do so by motoring there at that time.
1t is believed that there will be more
cowboys in the aggregation at the
Rowe ranch than at any other rIace
on the. drive.

MACK'S PITCHERS
LACK REAL FORM
TWirIers From Whom He Ex-
peCted Much Slow in
Developing.
HAS ONLY THREE WHO
CAN WORK AT PRESENT
Gallia and Bush Slated to Work in
the Game This After
noon.
BY J. ED GRILLO.

Failure of his young pitchers to gain
proper condition this spring is given
as a reason for the poor showing the
Athletics have made to date. according
to Connie Mack.
Though the weather at Jacksonville,
Fla. was perfect all the time we were
down there none of my pitchers could
pitch Just what was the cause of this
I am at a loss to explain" remarked
the winner of more world series than
any one in the history of base ball,
this morning.
Il did not have single twirler who
could hold his own, and it is only
lately that three of them have round
ed into form. They are Myers, Nabors
and Croweil This trio is doing good
work now and Joe Bush. whom l will
pitch today, also is in form.
.'Bressler and Wyckoff were left
south after the team came home. but
while Bressler seems to have a lot of
stuff Wyckoff does not seem able to put
ANYTHING or the ball and l have left
them both home.
Mack said that he was not very much
IMPRESSED with either the Boston or
New York teams. but that he felt that
both would improve as the season went
on.
After two days of idleness morning
practice was resumed today. and sew
eral hours of strenuous work We're in
