FARMER ARGUES FOR
CALVES IN AUTUMN
Every Condition Is Better for Dali
ryman Tde7-You11 A1iTa:s
Get Better Start.

Here IRE some arguments that u
thoughtful farmer puts up for having
the cows fresllen in the fall instead of
spring:
''Thc fall calf usually gets q better
start in the world than the one that
arrives In the spring. The farmer
will have more time to take care of
the calves in winter than summer
the fall pastures IRE coming On, fur
nishing tile COW an abundance CT good
green stuff that produces q large milk
flow. The fall pastures are more nour-
ishing than the spring grasses, owing
to the fact that they do not contain so
much water. There are no flies or
heat to bother either the COW or calf,
and If dropped early enough the calf
will get good start and learn to eat
well before col;, weather sets in.
t milk products nre much easier
taken care Of in winter than summer
and milk and butter prices are ut
their best Mt this time"

II creeps IRE provided where the

in their rapid growth. 1t is surpris-
ing how early they will learn to like

old they will always be around at
feeding time. A place 10 by Is feet
will be room enough for 80 to As
lambs. In this is placed trough IA
to Is inches wide and 2 to inches
deep in which they are fed twice
day. 1t is worth while to be punctual
In the feeding. No stale grain should
be left in these troughs. Clean them
out. A satisfactory ration will :,e

cornmeal, one part bran und one part
oilmeal. Lambs like oats, too. Some
sheepmen prefer to fit up the en-
frances to the creeps with two rollers
heldrin place by springs. This is
good way to take care Of lambs of diff
fcrent sizes and the rollers prevent
tearing the wool.

The gradual but steady decline in
the carrying capacity of native pas
lures presents q serious problem for
the livestock industry. The aver
age carrying capacity of the 3Oo.' co.
600 acres Of public lands outsid. Of
the national forests, which are prac~,-
cnlly all used for grazing purposes, IS
today estimated Mt 25 per cent le,s
than what 1t once was. The private y
owned pastures show the same de-
cline. On the other hand, the carrying
capacity Of much Of the unfenced
grazing lands within the national for
ests has been increased in recent
years by the nd :ption OF what is
known rs deferrec grazing.
This system is explained in IN arti-
Gle in the new Yearbook Of the de-
partment of agriculture. Improve
ment and Management of Native Pas
lures in the West" This article gives
as the causes of pasture deterioration
overstocking ind premature grazing.
1t has been the general belief that II
stock came Off the range In satisfac-
tory condition the range was not over
stocked. In the majority Of cnses,
however. this is not true. Animals
which nre allowed to Craze the green
feed Of the choice forage plants near
ly MS fast MS 1t grows may for the
time being get enough to eat, but to
rob the plants continuously of this
forage robs them also of their labora-
tory for manufacturing plant food, and
they nre gradually starved out Of ex-
fstence. In the course of five years or
so. the better forage plants are gradu-
nlly reduced and their places taken by
less desirable grasses and weeds. The
condition of the stock, therefore, is not
in itself n safe way to Judge whether
q range is ovcrstocked or not.
Premature grazing is injurious not
only because the vegetation, when soft,
is badly damaged by trampling, but be-
cause the plants are not allowed to
mature their seed. In practice, some
early in the year. When deferred graz.
Ing Is adopted, however. n part OF the
range Is set aside and the seed al-
lowed to mature before the plants are
grazed.
Deferred grazing was first practiced
by the forest service of the United
States department of agriculture in
studies ON the depleted ranges of an
area In northwestern Oregon. An area
with One-fourth the carrying capacity
required for band of sheep for IN
entire season was protected against
grazing until the important plants on
1t had matured seed. After which it
was heavily graZed. This caused the
sheep to aid in planting the seed by
trampling 1t into the ground. The fol-
lowing year the same area was again
protected until after seed maturity and

DIsARMiN0 THE BODY,

We may point out that alcohol, as
far as the digestive organs are con-
cerned, not only interferes with their
normal digestive functions, but also
destroys their natural powers of pro-
tecting the body from disease. A per-
son who is suffering from alcoholic
dissipation. mild or severe, is less able
to destroy the microbes Of disease
w-ich may be taken in with the food
and is. therefore, far more susceptible
to typhoid fever, cholera, and similar
diseases. The vital resistance to both

We cannot secure them by afiiliating

Another labor paper expresses itself
in much the same strain. 1t says in
part:
Many tradeunion journals and
dozens of the best.known labor lead.
ers in America have come out openly
for prohibition. According to the
Plumbers Journal, the liquor interests
are finding out that a lot of men who
drink whisky won't vote for it. The
locomotive engineers, 10000 strong,
have gone on record for the abolition
of the liquor traffic"
Mr.. e. J. Keenan,, president of an Or
ganization of dry labor union men IL
Ohio, says that with the exception OF
the brewery workers and bartenders
every labor union In Cincinnati is
lined up for prohibition. The follow
ing pledge is used by Mr.. Keenan,:

will not develop and grow as it should
until the influence Of the liquor traffic

was then only moderately grazed. This
gave the Seeding plants from the first
years seed crop n chance to develop
course on each quarter of the range
In turn the entire area was reseeded
naturally without depriving the stock
Of the forage on any part of the rai,
In any year. The results obtained
under this plan were compared with
similar ranges graZed throughout the
season each year and with fenced
areas that were not grazed ut oil.
1t was found that deferred grazing
resulted In n much greater reproduc-
ton from seed than either Of the other
methods and that the production of
good forage species was particularly
great. With lands totally protected
against grazing the seeds germinate en-
the surface of the ground, but, not
being planted deeply. the root systems
of the resulting plants are unable to
reach the moist lower soil and the
plants die from drought later in the
season.
The principles Of deferred grazing
are being applied to national forest
ranges US rapidly rs possible. and the
results in practice bear cut those &C.
cured eXperimentally. In the Year
book article already mentioned. n pos
ture of COO acres Is taken for the pur-
pose of illustrating the practical ap-
plicution of deferred grazing. This Is
divided by cross fences into three COM
partments of approximately 200 acres

distribution of water and shade. De-
ginning In 1916, No. should be grazed
first; No. . second: and No. 3 hot ul-

by following this plan the various
portions Of the range will have not
only an equal chance to reseed, but
equal protection against grazing dur
ing the forepart of the growing sea-
son. Should one part of the pasture
be in greater need of building up
than another. it may be advisable to
vary the plan to secure maximum
crop over the whole area rs soon as
practicable. A knowledge of the in
dividual case is necessary in order to
decide what variation should be mad :,
but If the principles involved nre clear,
this should not be q difficult matter.

FOR PROHIBITION NOW.
Mr.. Alexander Nesbit has been sher-
liz of Denver for IL years-and he
didn't vote for prohibition. Here are
some Of the many things he said about
the good effects OF the law In an in
terview published in the Pueblo Chief
tain:
The habitual loafer has disap-
peared. The crowds that used to hang
around the lower end OF the city at
free lunch counters have gone. Where,
haven't the least idea. Like last
summers flies. they Just disappeared.
Again. the wine rooms are no more
and the after the theater' dinners are
over. There is no place to go except
to the picture shows. and then for
light lunch and then home, unless
they go to the pool halls You know
1t doesn't take long to get q lunch
after the theater now. Few people
say have another on a glass of water.
And the old slogan, Let's have an
other Is a misnomer in Denver.
Neither do very many people say:
Let's have another lunch and they
get through and go home.
I'VE haven't had a case of murder
since the first OF the year Our sui
cides are falling of to a great extent;
the mileage of the ambulance and pa
troll wagon is less than 60 per cent Of
what 1t formerly was; our officers on
the beats are treated more courteous
ly: there is better air morally
around the city; the places where
crime was formerly Matched are gone
and the city is better OF in every way
SO far as its police department and
their work Is concerned.
Let me tell you another thing, the
can-rusher. the old soak who came

DESTROYING FOOD TO MAINTAIN PRICES.

The New York World cites a instance Of the destruction of
food in order that prices for foodstufs might be maintained.
A woman Investigating committee IN Peoria, Ill, ascertaned
that several carloads of potatoes had been dumped into the river
because potatoes were becoming too plentiful to maintain the price
at the prevailing stage.
New York, declares the World, has known instances of dumping
fruit and vegetables into the harbor in order to relieve the glutted
market.
"What makes the wanton destruction conspicuous in this case, y
continues the paper, referring to the Peoria incident, "s that it is
perpetrated at a time of scarcity and for the purpose of maintaining
prices at an oppressive figure"
We can endorse the sentiment expressed by the New York
publication when it says that if it is a crime to manipulate prices by
cornering a commodity, it ought to be equally a crime to cause a
scarcity by destroying food.
There isn't any need of anybody losing his head because the

FINISHED WOODS REQUIRE
ESPECIALLY EXPERT CARE

The housekeeper who knows some.
thing about the finishing of woods
viii ~vertainly be more intelligent in
her care of highly finished furniture,
interior woodwork and floors. Such
information is not hard to obtain as
most of the paint and stain manufac.
turers have excellent literature on the
subject which they gladly mail on re.
quest. This suggestion is made by
Miss Mabel Ward, professor of home
economics at South Dakota State col
lege. Miss Ward Celebrates as fol.
lows upon ways and means of keeping
wood finishes in good condition:
We find that the most common
methods of finishing all ordinary
woods are by the use of paint; varnish
on the natural wood; and stain fin.
ished with varnish and wax. Oil in
some form is found in all OF these fin.
lshes and when the woodwork is sub.
jected to the constant dry heat of our
steam or furnace heated houses. the
Oil dries out and the finish cracks.
Sometimes only small wrinkles show
on highly finished pieces or if the
heat is intense, the finish will crack
and peel. To prevent this it is neces.
sary to replace the oil occasionally,
The best to use for this purpose is
the yellow parafin oil costing fifteen
cents a pint. Several times a year
all the interior woodwork ard fur1.i-
ture should be rubbed with a soft
cloth moistened with the oil The
finish is greatly improved by this
treatment and the wood will last much
longer in perfect condition. This
parafin oil is Also an excellent clean.
er and will remove the dust and grease
deposit found on woods cleaned with
a dry dust cloth.
A great many people clean white
woodwork with strong soap or the
various cleaning powders. If we stop
again and think about the composition
of paint we will realize that the strong
cleaning agents dissolve both va,nish
and oil. The woodwork win be clean
but 1t will soon wear off or become
dry and faded. A thin paste Of pow
dered whiting is BY far the best
cleaner for all painted wood, furniture
and enamel beds. The whiting IS
bought at a drug store and costs len
cents a pound. It is mixed with wa
ter to make 8 thin paste about the
consistency of cream. This il rubbed
