Endangering a Whole State

Such questionable schemes as the
so-called "herd law" being initiated
by petition, are what causes popular
mistrust of and antagonism to direct
legislation"-it can be made so easily
an instrument of evil and oppression
in he hands of INSCRIPTIONS agencies.
Agitation for the proposed measure
has done grievous harm already and
it threatens to interfere with immi-
grafton to this state if it is persisted
in and the people give the agitation
any encouragement. Its adoption in
effect would reduce the livestock in
dustry by onc-half without a single
compensating advantage. Its applica-
ton would reduce the grazing area ny
fifty million acres of natura. grass.
The small farmer would be prcclnded
from raising any cattle other than
what could be fed on the premises,
A new brand of litigants and litigious
lawyers would be raised, instead Of
cattle. with Denver as the ferment-
ing and fomenting center.
The farmer with few head of cat
tie would be the one to suffer; the
cattle baron is no longer in evidence.
Against the herd law" are the
farmers oranges, cattle associations,
dairymen, the commercial bodies in
Denver and other cities and every
livestock interest in Colorado.
In favor of he initiated measure is
an obscure publication, under doubt
full patronage, with no influence what
ever among the farming population.
Why the danger then? Because of
the thoughtless signers of petitions
carried about by professional petition
mongers. The proposed law is repre-
scented as in the interest of the small
farmer and opposed to the land baron.
People are apt to take the word of
plausible canvasser. As n matter of
plain truth, if the proposed law would
benefit anyone, who in this way could

Kerosene VIII Remove Stains from
Bath Tub

The most efficient method of re-
moving that oily deposit which forms
on the sides of the porcelain bath tub
and bowl is to use kerosene. Take
some soft paper, moiston with kero-
sene and rub over the soiled part This
will cut the grease easily and the
extra kerosene can be wiped up with
more paper, which, with the frs,
should be burned, to avoid Danger
The fixtures may then be washed with
plenty of soap and hot water and
they are clean. This method requires
very little rubbing and is not injur-
ious to the finish.
Avoid the use of soda or securing
powders. These will in time injure
the finish of the enamel.
To remove brown stains caused by
standing or dripping water use a lit
tie oxalic acid and wish out with
plenty of clear water. This is very
effeetive.-Nellie NJ. Killgore, Colo
