ABOUT THAT HERD LAW

Volney T. Hoggatt in the Great Divide and the
Denver Post has started something that promises to
make Volney the most cordially hated man in the
state by the stockmen generally Mr. Hoggatt pro-
poses to have bill initiated this fall providing
the adoption of the "herd law" and the stockmen's
associations up in against the promulgation
of any such calamity
To the unsuspecting the herd law appears to
be of especial benefit to the farmer and residents
of the cities and large towns would support the
measure-thru ignorance.
AS understand it, the herd law compels the
owners of stock to keep their animals under fence
and damages may be obtained under this law for
crops destroyed by stock whether the crop fenced
or not.
AS applied to the San Luis valley the herd law
would not be detrimental in places where
there is more open range; however, it would be the
means of virtually putting stockmen out of busi-
ness Suppose farmer with poor crop, adjacent
to good pasture, would cut the wires of the fence
and allow stock to into his field Under the
herd law he would be entitled to big damages
actual and exemplary-and thereby receive good
price tor his crop. A man with could keep
the crtter picket rope, but how long could
man stand it to picket out eight or ten or twenty
head?
The argument is made that the farmer protect
ed by the herd law would be saved the expense of
fencing his farm and enabled to get start in life,
but the history of Kansas and Nebraska shows that
the herd law has driven cattlemen out and left the
farmers with no sale for their rough feed.
The day of the cattle king and the unlimited
open range is past and the situation has resolved it.
self to a condition where very small per cent of
the public land is susceptible to cultivation and
hence only valuable for grazing purposes Of this
class of land there many thousand acres and the
fencing of this would be sheer nonsense Guilt
waited land may be able to support several animals
to each acre. but of the open range many acres
required for each animal

SAVE WASTE PAPER
AND RAGS IS ADVICE
of William C. Redfield Secre-
tary of the Federal Depart
ment of Commerce.

(By G. W. Dudderar, secretary OF
the hoard Of trade.l
The federal department of COM
merce, William c. Redfeld secretary,
brings to our attention an alarming
shortage OF material for the manu-
facture of paper and suggests the say
ing OF waste paper and rags. The de-
partment is making known this fact
as widely as possible and urging the
collection of paper and rags through
local dealers to improve conditions
confronting our American paper man
ufacturers.
Something like $4,000 tons of diff
ferent kinds of paper and paper board
are manufactured every day in the
United States and a large proportion
Of this, after 1t has served its purpose.
could be used over again in some class
OF paper. A large part OF 1t, however,
is either burned or otherwise wasted.
This, OF course, has to be replaced by
new materials. In the early history
Of the paper industry publicity was
given to the Importance Of saving
rags. It is Of scarcely less import
ance now. Tho department Of COM
merce is glad to bring this matter to
the attention OF the public in the hope
that practical results may flow from
1t. A little attention to the saving OF
rags and old papers will mean gem
uine relief to our paper industry and
a diminishing drain upon our sources
Of sllnply for new materials,
The secretary OF the board OF trade
will be supplied with list OF whole
sale dealers In paper stock and would
be glad to supply these names TO any
local buyers OF paper and rags. We
believe this matter should be given
serious consideration, particularly as
It Is worthy OF the active effort Of our
United States Department OF Com
merce.

lS POUNDS OF BLOOD

Is the average quantity in a healthy
adult, but it is the quality Of the blood
that determines our strength to resist
sickness. With weak blood We find
cold hands and chilly feet; in children
an aversion to study, and in adults
rheumatic tendencies.
In changing seasons get abundant
fresh air and take a spoonful of SCOTS
Emulsion after meals, because Scott,s
Emulsion is a rich blood.food that will
increase both quantity and quality Of
the blood while it warns the body and

When mut,. ,.dcs of people arc to-

their children, it is careless to neglect
It's benefits. Look out for substitutes.
