BEGIN FIGHT ON PARASITES
Poor Policy to Wait Until Spring When
Insects Become Numerous-Dust
Birds Thoroughly.

A common practice among poultry
men Is to wait in the spring until lice
and other parasites have become so
numerous that they will be noticeable.
By far the better plan is to begin the
fight early and keep them from getting
a start.
One of the best means Of doing this
Is to dust the birds thoroughly with q
good insect powder, at regular inter.
walls. beginning in late winter. There
is no harm in giving the hens an appli.'
cation occasionally even in midwinter
since they are never entirely free from
lice, and everyone Of these pests killed
before the breeding season may mean

BE PATRIOTIC. PAY
YOUR MILITARY POLL TAX

Every male citizen of the state of
Colorado above the age of twenty-one
years, unless specifically exempted by
law, is required to pay military poll
tax of $1.0O. The assessment is made
by the county assessor, and turned over
to the county treasurer for collection.
The money raised by this tax goes to
the adjutant generals department for
the support of the state militia which
is now being recruited to its full
war strength. The money is urgently
needed for the proper equipment and
care Of the troops.
In 1910 there were 271,O0O males
above the age of twenty-one years in
Colorado. Only 100000 Of these were
assessed by the county assessor with
poll tax in the year 1916. The county
assessors have been urged to obey the
law carefully and assess every man in
their counties subject to this tax. The
governor is especially anxious that all
persons subject to military poll tax
should pay such tax in order that ths
revenues for military purposes may be
increased. The assessors have been ad-
vised to certify at once to the county
treasurer the names of men twenty-one
years of age, and over, subject to the
military poll tax and not having other
property The treasurer can therefore
proceed Immediately to collect the tax
from these individuals who are likely,
some of them at least, to be out Of the
county on January l when the general
tax roll is delivered to the treasurer.
Pay promptly, therefore. when you re.
ceive your notice from the treasurer.
This is no time for slackers.

LICE ON SITTING HENS

Great care should be taken to keep

sILOS COMING IN FAVOR

The experience of the past winter has
taught many rangeman lesson in
silo economies with the natural result
that they are now for the thing. Tha
urgency for short feed became so press
ing during the last two or three months
that the cattlemen have been glad to
bring their herds in to the ranches hav-
ing silos which they tapped at prices
ranging from Sc to 80 a ton for the en-
silage. These fellows are now contract
ing to have silo corn grown and put up
for them next fall at $3.50 the ton and
it will probably be worth more than
this figure to those who do not set the
price in advance, When ensilage is
available the way to feed 1t is With
corn or some other grain like barley
and alfalfa goes pretty we'll with the
ration. A minimum quantity Of corn
and maximum amount Of silage Is the
idea, and the success Of such feeding
has aroused general interest and this
scheme Is in time going to become uni
versally regarded as the one way out.

POULTRY
START IN POULTRY BUSINESS
Spring Is Good Time to Beain-Either
Obtain Breeding Pen or File
Order for Eggs.

Spring is a good time to start in
the poultry business. Either obtain
good breeding pen from someone
who is reliable and who raises the
breed you fancy, or else send for
eggs. You do not have much time
to obtain breeding pens, for mos.
breeders of purebred stock have their
pens mated by this time and without
doubt will have disposed of their sur
plus choice breeding males by adver-
tising them last fall and selling them
to parties wanting good breeders.
The other plan, then is to send to
these breeders and obtain their price
lists at once. Even if you do not care
to have the eggs for u month or so,
send now and obtain the price lists
and get your order booked, for others
are doing the same thing, and most
breeders send out eggs in the order
booked. Delays oftentimes cost much,
due to inability of the shipper to fill
his many orders as promptly as he
may desire.

The kind Of cockerels used is far

Answers His Country's Call

Last week W. A. Smith of this citv
was notified that his services were re.
quired by the U. s. government and for
him to report for duty at Rort Riley,
Kansas, on May 8. Mr.. Smith is an
engineer of exceptional ability, and out
of two appointments made in this state
he was one of the appointees and will
enlist as second lieutenant in the en-
gineering corps.
The fact that one of our esteemed
and loyal citizens was honored by our
country was more than our populace
could stand, and it brought forth a
demonstration from our people never
before witnessed in these parts.
Commander J. L. Cochran of the
Grand Army post here was master of
ceremonies and marshal of the day.
The judge, being an old civil war vet
eran himself, covered himself with
glory on this occasion. He secured tho
services Of the Rifle band and gathered
nearly our entire population, including
all the teachers and school children, on
our main street to escort the guest ns
honor to the train. The large process
sion was formed, each one carrying thu
stars and stripes. headed by the band
which marched in double file to the
depot The procession was halted at the
depot and the ranks were opened where
Mr.. Smith, who was conveyed in an
automobile, rode through the ranks to
the waving of flags, the sound of the
bugl le and the band playing a soul stir.
ring patriotic melody. Truly Rifle did
herself more than proud on this solemn
occasion. At the station, while waiting
for the eastbound train, speeches were
made by Revs. Hutchins and Bennett
and Prof. Allen of the high school.
Mr.. Smith leaves his wife and one
child here, and the ovation was more
than he could bear. Just as the train
pulled out he burst forth in tears, but
he left with the good will and best
wishes of our people.
Fully 1000 people were at the depot
to give him a rousing send off, and the
occasion was one which he cannot for.
get as long as he lives. A word Of
praise to our commanding officer, Judge
J. l.. Cochran, for his services in this
huge demonstration is fitting, and his
action is worthy OF. admiration. He /.

a long and happy one is the sincere
wish of our citizens.

Monday evening on the lawn at the
home of Mr.. and Mrs. w. J. Guard the
Junior class of the Rifle Union High
school rendered a reception to the
Senior class and the teachers.
The lawn was decorated with red,
white and blue electric lights, and the
long table was decorated with the class
colors, blue and gold.
The evening being a trifle cold huge
bonfire was started for the comfort of
the guests which Illuminated the entire
east part of town. The Rifle band
played several selections. which put life
and plenty of 'fpep" to the evenings
festivities.
Prizes were awarded for many con-

stunts were pulled off on this joyous
occasion.

The tables were tastefully decorated
and there was an abundance of good
things to eat. The ladies certainly got
up fine supper for the occasion and
are worthy of great praise.
Rev. Hutchins of the M. E. church
was the toastmaster and did his part
of the program in his usual high class
manner. Other short speeches were
made by Messrs. Fred Munro, R. i.

Western Slope Track Meet

The sixth annual track meet was held
at the fair grounds north of town last
Saturday. The weather was cold and
disagreeable and while the crowd of
spectators was not as large as in for
mer years, taking everything into con-
sideration it was a very successful
event, and although it was chilly, sew
eral records were broken. The schools
of Gypsum, Glenwood Springs, Grand
Valley and Rifle were all largely repre-
sented. The Meeker school had also
entered all the events, but had to call
off coming at the last minute on ac-
count of the condition of the roads.
The Glenwood Springs school carried
off the honors and all the cups, al
though the sports were all closely con-
tested. Ray Oldenburg broke the
javelin throw record, the distance be-
ing 1873 feet. He also won the high
jump and the pole vault. Wasson of
Grand Valley was a close second in the
high jump.
Miller of Rifle won the mile run,
Barnette Napier of Glenwood won the
100-yard dash, time 12 seconds. All
the other events were very interesting.
The ribbons were distributed at the
Rex theater in the evening to the vic
tors, but the silver cups had not ar
rived and could not be presented at
that time. The cups are now on dis
play and will be sent at once to the
winners.
The gala day concluded with grand
ball in the evening which was very
largely attended, and the visiting
schools voted the Rifle. Union High
school many thanks for their royal
treatment. Come again, boys.
