Urbina had left for Pueblo before they
could intercept him.
He's got a girl up there. and he's
gone to get married. Tad explained.

skeptical expression in his hearers

you about his goin' to Pueblo?"

Tad uttered an angry exclamation.

mind to saddle this thing onto him

PLAN A PERMANENT PASTURE
important Part Of Rotation System
Rough HlIlsides May Be Used
Plant Bermuda Grass.

The permanent pasture will be a
very important part OF the rotation
plan this year. A pasture will be
needed when the grazing crops are
not ready and when the animals need
green food and exercise. If you
haven't permanent pasture 1t will
be advisable to start one at the earliest
possible time. Even a rough hillside
may be used for this purpose. For
such locations Bermuda Is a most ex-
ccllent grass. Start Bermuda pas
ture this spring so you will have graz
ing for stock.

CHAPTER VIl.-Continued.

The mist and an early dusk prevent
ed him from seeing Las Palmas itself
until he was well in among the irri-
gated fields. A few moments later,
when he rode up to the outbuildings,
he encountered middle-aged Mexican,
who proved to be Benito Gonzalez, the
range boss.
Dave made himself known, and Be-
nito answered his questions with ap-
parent honesty. No, he had seen moth
ing of sorrel horse or strange rider,
but he mad just come in himself.
Doubtless they could learn more from
Juan, the hOrse-wrangler, who was
somewhere about.
Juan was finally found, but he
proved strangely recalcitrant. He ad-
united that he had seen horse Of
the description given. Probably 1t be-
longed to some stranger.
Dave changed his tactics. "Oiga ~ he
said, sternly. "Do you want to 60 to
jail?' Juan had no such desire. "Then
tell the truth. Where is the horse
now?"
Juan insolently declared he didn't
know and didn't care.
"Oh, you don't, ehr' Law reached
For the boy, and shook him until he
yelled. "You will make nice little
prisoner, JuanitO, and we shall find a
way to make you speak"
Gonzalez was inclined to resent such
high-handed treatment of his under
aing, but respect for the Rangers was
deep-rooted, and Juan's behavior was
inexplicable.
At last the horseboy confessed. He
had seen both horse and rider, but
knew neither. Mr.. Austin and the
stranger had arrived together, and the
latter had gone on. That was the
truth.
"Bueno" Law released his prisoner,
who skunk away rubbing his shoulder.
SNOW, Benito, we will find Mr.. Aus
tin"
A voice answered from the dusk
"He won't take much finding" and Ed
Austin himself emerged from the stable
door. "Well, what do you want"

Responsible for Death Of Large
Numbers of Live Stock.
Disease Affects Chiefly Cattle and
Sheep, But None Of Domestic AMI
mails Are Exempt-Vaccina-
tion Is Favored.

prepared by the United states Depart
ment OF Agriculturo)
Losses from anthrax, or charbon,
which at the present time Is RESPONSE
BILE for the death of large numbers or
live stock In low, moist lands Of more
or less mucky character, may be mini
mlzed by the proper use of protective
vaccine and the proper disposal OF the
carcasses of infected animals. Thls
disease affects chiefly cattle and sheep,
but none of the domestic animals IL
exempt, and even man Is sometimes Il
victim. Some centuries ago II Is known
to have caused the death OF more than
10000 persons In southern Europe
Since that time the disease has appar-
emily become less vlrulent, but 1t Is
still the cause of considerable loss to
stock owners.
In Farmers Bulletin No. 784, detailed
directions for the administration or
the vaccine are given. Stock owners
are warned to obtain the serum and
vaccine from reliable manufacturers
only, and not to administer the treat
ment unless the disease has already ap-
peared in the vicinity, or the pastures
on which the animals are to be turned
ont are known to be infected. Care-
less handling Of the vaccine may result
in spreading instead Of controlling the
disease.
The cause of anthrax Is minute
germ which multlplies rapidly In the
body, especially in the blood, and pro-
duces poisonous substances which or
dInarIly cause death. The symptoms
of the disease resemble, in certain re-
spects. those of tick fever and black
leg. The differences which will en-
able stock owners to distinguish 1t
from them are described in detail In
the bulletin already mentioned. In
acute cases, however, medicinal treat
ment Is seldom effective. For this rea-
son the best methods OF combating the
disease are to vacclnate all animals
likely to be exposed to the infection
and by deep burylng or cremating OF
infected carcasses, to make certain That
the infection Is not allowed to establish
itself In pastures.
Under certain conditions and In GER
tain forms the germs Of the disease are
remarkably resistant to heat, cold and
drought. They will remain for long
time In a pasture and be capable of In
fecting any animals turned out on IT,
Ordinarily the disease S taken Into the
body through the mouth with food. II
NAV, however, be absorbed through q
wound or even an insignificant scratch
II is in this way that human beings
nsually become infected, and the naEle
"woolsorters disease IS derived from
the fact that men engaged In sorting
wool are particularly liable to contract
the disease through Infection OF
scratches or other small wounds OF
abrasIons on their hands.
In burying carcasses a useful precau
tion IS TO cover them with quicklime
Where the bodies are burned insteaC
of buried, great care should be taken t'
see that the operation is thoroughly
done. Even the earth upon which th'
carcass has lain should be thorough!
and deeply burned over so that th'
heat will penetrate to depth suficien
to kill the germs that may have passed
into the soil with fluids from the BODY.

HEALTHY DEMAND FOR MULES
No Let-Up in Market for Sturdy AMI
mals-Farmer Finds Himself In
Enviable Position.
Ry j. C MOHLER.l }

A prominent farmer OF eastern
Kansas stated recently that he had
for several years been raising mules,
but that this year his mares were
bred to draft stations, owing to the
calls for heavy horses. Still, there is
no let-up in the market for mules.
This leaves the farmer in an enviable
situation for whatever credltable colts
his mares may bring forth there is
competition for at big prices.

The New r,
Prohi Law
Extracts From a Letter of the
State Central Committee on
the Workings of the New
Booze Law Up TO. Date.

Denver, June a. A careful
check made through the Offices
. of Governor julius C. Gunter,
Attorney General Leslie E. Hub.
bard and Secretary of State
James R: holland prove that the
prohibition amendments passed
by the recent legislature are
working out to the good of the
state and the complete satisfac-
tion of the people. The condi-
tions in Colorado today are act
ually nearer bone dry" than in
almost any other dry state in the
Union.
From all sections. especially
from border counties at north
and south, come most encourage
ing reports of vastly diminishing
liquor importations, very few ar
rests on DIR unkenness charges, a
decided minimum of attempts at
bootlegging. and more contented
aud prosperous comm unities.
The ban on liquor shipments
by auto has resulted in the con-
tjscation OF several machines and
cargoes and the sudden stop
page of such illegal traffic. Peace
officers report empty jails, and
police courts and justices of the
peace have little to do. In Den
yer the positive records show
that under the old law Monday
was always banner drunk day
in police court. Not in several
weeks has there been a single
drunk booked at police head
quarters over Sunday.
We're it not for this new Dem
ocratic state law, the recently
adopted federal statute. known
as the Reed law, which goes into
effect July /, would allow the inn
portation into Colorado of liquor
in any quantity for medical or
sacramental use." The Colora-
do la>s-the Horton measure
passed by democratic leRisla-
ture-stands as a safe guard
against that federal act. Liquor
can only come into this state in
limited quanities-two quarts of
whiskey to any one family in any
one calendar month, or six quarts
of wine, or twenty-four quarts of
beer, and only one of the varie-
ties t. each family-not all three.
At the very Lutset Governor
Gunter thought this new statute
a vast improven ent over the old.
Attorney General Hubbard rem
dered sn opinion pointing out
its good provisos. and predicting
that it would be a success. Con-
ditions all over Colorado prove
the wisdom of such forecasts.
