ZERSEN THROWS
YUMA CAVE MAN

The large crowd present At Lowe q
hall on last Saturday night, witnessed
a battle of brute strength and win NJ
any cost against brains, science and
agility, (the latter winning) when
Charles Fromme. the Yuma cave man.
met a deserved defeat At the hands Of
our own Ben Zersen, the 10 year-oid
grappler of Julesburg.
The first fall came after 20 minutes
and 80 seconds on the mat, during
which time Fromme exhibited some OF
the dirtiest and unsportsmanlike tao
tics ever witnessed in this section.
On the other hand Zersen. although
handicapped by at least 80 pounds
adhered strictly to the rules of the
manly game, winning his victory in a
civilized manner over his opponent OF
the concrete dome.
After the first fall, it was apparent
that Benjamin had the animal Of the
cave man, for he gained the second
fall in Is minutes and AZ seconds
not exerting himself in the least, dur
ing the struggle.
Both falls were gained with the
head scissors, for which Zersen is fam
ous-and we'll wager that Fromme
has dreamed of scissors" since hav.
ing his ivory Uranium squeezed 81 :
sizes smaller by Zersen's pet meal
tickets.
Although Fromme did resort to dir
ty work, the match was well enjoyed
by all ir attendance, and it was ap-
parent from the start that the match
was Zersen's although the Yuma can
nibal looked big enough and displayc
strength enough to tear the lighter
man into threads.

BEET TOPS A VALUABLE FEED

With feed prices three times what
they were ten years ago, more care
should be taken of beet tops. An scre
of bects will produce from I to 8 tons
of tops. In q test made at the Colo
RADIO Experiment Station some years
ago, beet tops made into silage with
out the addition of straw, showed .
value for feeding dairy cows almost
equal to corn silage, which is usually
considered worth Sc to 81 a ton. The
beet top silage was dark, coffee color
and was not eaten as readily as corn
silage, but seemed to give as good re-
turns for feed consumed. A number
of feeders made beet top silage last
year and obtained excellent results
from feeding the silage to steers.
The easiest way to make the silAGe
is in a trench silo, 6 to 8 feet wide. 8
to 8 feet deep, and as long rs may b.
necessary. The ends are sloped 70
that wagons can drive in, over the
tops, thus packing them down. Alter
nate layers of straw may be put be-
tween layers of tops. Straw takes
up some Of the moisture from the tops,
thus improving both feeds. When
the trench is full, it is covered with
straw and earth. The silage is cut
out with hay knife and taken out
from the end.-Chas. I. Bray, Colo

Following Mr.. Mellen's address,

clearly the situation in which the
young men of our country were offer

but their very lives, and were going
to the colors making the greatest sac
rifices of all, in order to fight for the
Stars and Stripes. In view of this it
was great privilege for those who
would stay at home to have the oppor-
tunity to back up their Country" and
their boys by buying Liberty Loan
Bonds, thus loaning our government
money at time when money was of
vital need to win the war. He i'm
pressed the fact that buying Liberty
Loan Bond was the safest investment
one could make, and every true Amer

as many bonds as their means will per
nit, and in so doing further identify

which has the destiny of our future
happiness and prosperity at stake. He

were offering their lives, that those
