VERDICT OF NOT GUILTY
FOR DURANGO STOCKMEN

Montrose Press
Attorney John L. Stiycrs was Al
incoming passenger Sunday from Du-
range, where he has been engaged dur
ing the past week in defending James
and Everett McCabe, who we note
from the Durango papers were being
prosecuted along with others in the
United States court on . charge Of
eonspiring to intimidate and injure
homesteaders in . right guaranteed to
them by the laws Of the United States.
The Jury returned . verdict Of not
guilty, and the defendants were dis
charged.
This case Il Of interest TO all who
are claiming public lands. as \ seems
that Uncle Sam has passed strenuous
laws providing for fne Of IS, 900 and
ten years in the penitentiary for any
one found guilty Of conspiring to in
jure, oppress, or intimidate such
claimant IN the enjoyment Of any right
guaranteed to him by the laws Of the
United States, including the right to
file upon and perfect title TO public
lands.

NEW FOLIAGE PLANT
MUCH TOUTED NOW
Field and Fam:

Field and Farm:
For the last four or i've years We
have been having . good deal to say
at odd times about new forage plant
called shallu until it has become quite
. question rs to whether shallu or
shallu not plant it However, this
may be. the new sorgho Il certainly .
wonder for our arid region ~ thus far
demonstrated. There are several good
patches Of Il in Otero county this sea-
son and Robinson says It is the great
est thing he ever saw. We have had
the driest season Of all, but under irs
rfGation the shallu forged right ahead
until it attained = growth Of fifteen
feet with q surplussage Of heavy fol-
iage, which is such q desirable char
acteristic in all forage plants. It is
now being cut and put into silo and
is out-yielding all other green foli-
age. The seed men have thus far
ignored it, or ut least they have not
catalogued it, and the government re-
ports are likewise mysteriously silent,
but this does not alter the fact that
shallu is q wonderful feed plant for
this country. It has some advantages
over sudan, and even the much touted
schrock, which has done so well in
Kansas and Oklahoma, Is not running
up ON shallu to surpass it in the race.
1t now begins to look n II some day
we would have . practical dry for
age plant for this region, and when
it gets here to work with alfalfa we
Will have the world by the tail.

This has been the greatest garden
