MANAGEMENT OF FARM FLOCK
Sheep Practically Live Off Waste, Elk.
cept for Short Time WheH Pas
ture Is Needed.

Any farm fenced hog tight is equip
ped to handle few sheep, and they
will practically live off the waste, ex-
cept for a short period when few
acres of pasture are required. AS soon
as the corn is laid by, the sheep and
lambs may be turned in. They will
eat the weeds which you left and the
grass that comes later, also the suck
ers and lower blades Of corn, and
finally tackle the corn. You can watch
and move them to stubblefeld or
pasture until the corn is out, then let
them back into the stalks again. Lit
tie or no corn is required for raising
sheep.

ThInus Are Not as They Seem.


The unpronouncable names of the
Mexican and European war zones have
nothing on the name of City Engineer
Jeup. His mail has come addressed
to every name from Mr.. B. Gee Up to
Mr.. B. Jesus, but it remained for an
Indianapolis teacher to spend a year
in digging out his identity.
For months she had heard a fellow
teacher speak Of her brother-in-law,
Mr.. Yorp. During the recent via
duct trouble his opinions on the mat
ter were quoted frequently. For
months this teacher had also read of
Mr.. Jeup, the city engineer.
Finally, when the viaduct troubles
had reached their climax, she scanned
the papers eagerly every evening to
see how much longer she would have
to walk across. Engineer Jup held
exactly the opinions of Mr.. Yorp
Suddenly light burst on her befud-
died brain. Rushing up to her teach
er friend, she asked eagerly, How
does your brother-in-law, Mr.. Yorp,
spell his name?"
"Jeup,' came the answer with a
mild look Of surprise.
Eureka! Mr.. Yorp, the brother-in-
law, was Mr.. Jup, the city engineer.
But the name was Yoip. OF as in oil.
Can you pronounce it?-Indianapoli

SHOCK
HORSES THRIVE ON ALFALFA
No other Hay Comes So Near Being
Ideal, If SaneIy Used-Has Large
Protein Content.

Some ridiculous prejudices are held
against alfalfa. The less known about
it the more intense is the prejudice,
one that constantly has to be fought
as the plant advances into strange
territory is that it is unsuited and
even dangerous to horses. The fact
is, no other hay comes SO near being
ideal, if sanely used. Where largely
grown and best known, it has largest
popularity and use as a staple ration
for horse and mule stock of all ages.
One element that makes alfalfa so valu-
able is it's large protein content-much
larger than is found in any other hay.
Best results are obtained by feeding
with it, as balance, other feeds hav-
ing less protein.
Horse owners accustomed to using
prairie or timothy hay, and keeping
the hangers heaped, are likely to over
feed on alfalfa, with harmful effects,
such as would follow from feeding too
much oats or corn.
Regardless of theories and scien-
fists, there is much testimony from
men severely practical that alfalfa
hay alone serves every purpose as a
roughage for mature horses at heavy
work and for growing colts of any age,
although for some horses when driven
fast it is found rather too much of a
laxative. Hundreds of horse owners
in western towns use it exclusively
as hay for stage, omnibus, delivery
and dray animals, and light drivers.
In parts of California and adjacent
states no other hay is known.

right across the sidewalk, dragging a
Wells-Fargo express wagon after him.
The wagon became Wedged in the

tened to the song, allowing himself to
be led away by Joseph Davis, the driV-

CLEANING UP AFTER CHOLERA
Work Should Be Done Promptly and
Thoroughy-LittIe Pigs Lose
Their Immunity.

All farms on which hog cholera has
existed at any time during the past
two years should be cleaned up
promptly and thoroughly. The older
hogs may have possessed degree of
immunity which enabled them to re-
sist successfully any hog cholera virus
Of lower power which was missed by
previous clean-ups. Pigs from immune
mothers do not possess this resisting

Tommy Learns to Eat Frogs.

From the French comrades British
soldiers in Macedonia have learned to
appreciate the value Of frogs as sup
plement to the bill of fare. The hind
legs served on toast make an excellent
savory.
The men enjoy the sport Of catching
the frogs with bits of meat tied to the
end of string. The sport, besides
providing a welcome addition to the
cuisine, helps to reduce the strength Of
the froggy chorus, whose carols make
night hideous.-London Globe.

UNIVERSITY TO ENLARGE

Albuquerque, N. NJ, April g.
A general business meeting of the
regents of the university of New
Mexico has been announced for
April II, at which time the regents
will let contracts for the new Had
ley Hall, the principal new main
building provided for the univer-
sity at the last session of the legis-
lature. The plans for this new
building, which takes the place of
Hadley Hall, destroyed by fire sew
eral years ago, were drawn under
the personal supervision of Walter
Burley Griffith, the famous Chi
cago architect, designer of the
plans upon which the Australian
government remodeled Sydney.
The University regents have enter
ed into a contract with Griffith
whereby he will have personal SUI
~pervision of all building done at
the University and the parking of
the enlarged three hundred acre
campus.
The new building, it is hoped,
can be started by the first of June,
and it may be that one unit may
be completed in time for use next
year.

We must all work together for the

It is not expedient to discuss
which of the three heads, business,

"a combination Of either two or all
these unnecessary conditions, so
often badly used in communities,

get at and get at quickly is the
combinations of evils, the propen-
sity to call every public effort to

Use of the February number that
this publication, like the associa-
ton it represents, is going to prove
a source of valuable information
and of important Improvement to
the taxation conditions of our
state. The leading article in the
March number is a study of "Mu-
nicipal School Finances and
Achievements in New Mexico" by
Director A. E. James of the New
Mexico Taxpayers Association,
and is an interesting analysis of
the conditions in our municipal
schools. 1t points out various
phases of municipal management
wherein Improvement can be
brought about, but generally re-
fleets the prevailing opinion that
schools of this class in New Mex
leo r well managed and we'll
taught.
Mr.. James continues his series of
educational articles on the theory
of public finance, and there are
various other articles of direct in
terest to New Mexico taxpayers in
the number.
Since the first issue of the Tax
Review more than 100 members
have been added to the Taxpayers
Association, and it is clear that
this organization is one that has
come to stay and which will
receive more and more of the sup
port and backing of the taxpaying
citizenship of the state, as the use
