OVER-FEEDING OF LAMBS
CHIEF CAUSE OF LOSSES
Change OF Ration of Newly Wcancd
Lambs to Fccd-Lot Food Must
BE Made Gradually.

The lamb feeding season is at
hand and the usual losses of lambs
in the feed lots are to be expected
Millions of lambs have been seen in
the feed lots, in the past ten years,
the conditions of feeding and han
ding have been studied and hun
dreds of autopsies have been made
on lambs that have died with the
usual symptoms.
= While no scientific investigation
has been made. field observations
have generally pointed to the one
proposition of over-feeding. Lambs
that have been raised on their mo-
ther's milk and native grasses can
not be changed suddenly to alfalfa
hay, molasses and concentrates with
out causing more or less disturbance
OF digestion. Nature never intended
sheep to eat molasses and while they
can appropriate a limited amount
they will throw off the excess thru
the4 bowels and kidneys. The irrita-
tion to the kidneys results in inflam-
nation and in many cases fatty de
generation. The liver is found in
famed and swollen and the stomach
and intestinal tract are seriously in
volved.
This heavy loss in the feed lots re-
suits from trying to commercialize
the lambs and get the greatest posi-
BILE gains in the least possible time
and failing to take into consideration
the fact that lamb is not a machine
but very sensitive animal that is
easily killed by careless treatment.
When lambs develop a diarrhoea
it is an indication that the feeding
operations are at fault A change
of feed is dangerous and such change
must be made gradually and animals
given time to adapt themselves to
the new conditions before crowding
the feed with the hopes of making
gains. Change of feed or over-feed-
ing is dangerous to all of our do
nestle animals. DO not try to fire
the engine too quickIy-there is dan
ger of burning out the fire boxes

THE DENVER MARKETS

Denver Union Stock Yards, Nov.
2Os-Receipts of cattle here last
week were heavy and the trade the
best of the season. All classes of
buyers were on the market and
strong competitors for the good cat
tie and average quality was consid-
erably better than it has been for
some time. Good beef cattle closed
the week from / to 25 cents higher
than the preceding week with good
feeding cattle about steady and the
commoner grades 10 to Is cents
lower Today, with 0,000 cattle on
sale, the market was active on the
good kinds but little slow and 10
to- 5 cents lower on the common
and medium cattle. Good beef steers
are selling from $675 to $3.50 and
choice steers sold last week up to
SS.25 with a few odd head of fancy
steers up to $3.50. Cows of good
quality are bringing s6.25 to $6.75
with fair cows from $3.50 to $625.
Bulls are selling from $3.50 to 1925
and veal calves from $3.50 to $3.50
Feeder and stocker trade was active
There were a good many country
buyers here and dealers and order
buyers all had plenty of orders for
the good cattle. Right good quality
dehorned steers are selling from 81
to $3.50, with extra fancy steers up
to IS and fair steers around $6.25
to $6.75. Feeder cows are bringing
$4.75 to $3.50.
The hog trade was active during
the week and the market in good
shape. Prices, however, are some
what lower than week ago. Good
hogs are selling today around 1925
to 1915. The demand is strong
here for good quality, well-fnished
hogs, but a great deal of the stuff
coming to market is of very inferior
quality and only half fat.
The sheep trade was active during,
the week and prices closed 25 to so
cents higher on lambs. Good fat
lambs are now selling up to SLIPS
and in strong demand at the price.
Feeder lambs are bringing 1915 to
S1O,15. Fat ewes are selling around
81 and feeding ewes largely from
$3.50 to $6.25. A great deal of the
stun now coming to market is con-
tracted to be weighed up here and
offering is not heavy. A good many
more good sheep and lambs of all
classes could be used here to advant-
age. w. n. FULTON.

c. w. miller for State Senator

We are glad to see Mr.. Miller of
Hays get into the road for State SEN
ator. While we were not personally
acquainted with Mr.. Miller, we heard
him well spoken of everywhere and
that he bears splendid reputation,
has clean record and is a real Re-
publican. He is in the class of men
that do things all over the district,
and we believe that he will be a sue
cesful candidate in 1916. We had the
pleasure of meeting Mr.. Miller at
Hays, last week, and we find he
stands high among his own people
which is good sign that he is wide
awake citizen and one of whom Ellis
county feels proud. The Republi-
cans will make no mistake in nomin-
ating him. He is absolutely quail
fed and has the ear marks of honor
and reliability. We feel that when
he goes to the State Senate, we could
go to Topeka and put our feet on his
desk. No frills but a plain ordinary
honest man TO whom any farmer or
business man can tie with pleasure.
Beaver Valley Booster, Decatur
County.
Cn the 18th day Of May 1916, G W.
Miller filed his nomination papers
and viii have virtually no opposition
for the Republican Nomination for
Senator in the seth district. Mr..
Miller has been resident of Ellis
County for over thirty years and is
thoroughly in touch with all the
wants and needs of western Kansas
Being an owner of farms, make his
interests identical with those of the
farmers of the seth district. In the
past thirty years he has seen the
prairies of western Kansas. improved,
bought and paid for by the blood of
the bravesr men, and the purest and
and noblest women that the world
ever knew. The Free Press hopes
that the Republicans will give Mr.
Miller their hearty support. His re-
cord as Republican is above ques-
tion- He at once becomes a formid-
able candidate and has shown that he
has the backing to make him the
strongest man in the district for
State Senator. His long service in
the Republican party entities him to
its individual support Mr.. Miller

Western Kansas World,

Dear Sir:
No doubt there are some who would
like to hear from the Wa-Keeney boys
who enlisted for service in the K. U.
Company = officially degignated as
Company M, First Regiment, Kansas
National Guards.
Soon after our arrival in Lawrence
we were shown to the recuiting office
and Immediately examined for enlist
ment. 1t will be interesting for
few of our friends out there to learn
that we passed this examination cas-
ily-even above the average.
We entrained at once FRIDAY morn
ing) and started for Riley leaving in
Lawrence large crowd of enthusias-
tic but detected looking people who
had assembled on the grounds to see
the boys off All along the line peo-
pie seemed to realize that we were
not on a picnic excursion, but that a
crisis was at hand which demanded
men who would s'do or die' for their
country. We will frankly admit that
we would rather ssdo" than Idle. !"
There are at present two Kansas reg
iments encamped here and three bat
teries consisting of machine gun, sig
nal and artillery corps. To one not
experienced in camp life this is de-
cidedly novel experience. We have
learned moe about militaryism in
the last few days than we ever ex-
pected to know. Our program each
day has consisted of reveille at a.
m giving us ten minutes to dress be-
fore assembly for roll call, then we
fix tent and get ready for mess; mess
call finds us all in line with our kits
in hand ready for beans, sow bosom
and coffee. Immediately after eats
we fall in line for fatigue duty
which means in pure q. s. language
TO clean our company street of refuse.
Next comes call to arms for drill
which lasts four hours-every hour
a ten minutes rest. Then beans
again and we are OF duty for the rest
of the day until O'Clock at which
time we have retreat, then beans
and we are excused for the night ex-
