SWAT THE COCKEREL - MAKE
HIM A CAPON
Operation is Simple, Meat Production
Is Increased and Better Price Is
Realized

While you are swatting the old
rooster" swat the young one and
make him a capon. June is the best
time for caponizing the surplus cock
erels. If young birds are beginning
to develop combs and wattles, they are
ready for the operation. The heavy
breeds should be caponized at about
to pa lbs, the light breeds IL to
2 lbs. Rocks, Wyandottes, and Reds
make the choicest capons.
Many people have hesitated going
into this phase of poultry production
because of the common opinion that
the operation was q difficult one This
is not the case. With very little ex-
perience an operator should not have
over per cent loss. Since these near
ly all result from a severed artery at
the time of the operation, such birds
can be killed at once, and used for
food. One can become familiar with
the details Of the operation from the
directions which accompany each set
of instruments, or from Farmers
Bulletin ASP, U. S. Department Of Ag-
riculture, Washington, d. C.
Practice shows that a 10 lb. capon
can be grown on the same amount of
feed and in the same time rs an
lb. cockerel. On the most undcvelOped
markets capons bring from three TO
six cents per pound more than cock
erels, and when well established sell
dom sell for less than eighteen TO
twenty-five cents per pound.
1t is not only the greater weight
and high selling price that makes ca
pom raising attractive, but their sweet
meat of finer flavor wins a place for
them on every table.-C. S. Anderson,
State Agricultural College, Fort Col
Inns, Colorado.

SOME BOOZE
Sheriff's Office Makes Wholesale Cap
ture of the Stuff That Will Soon
Be Gone but Not Forgotten

Undersheriff Rnodcnbaugh was out
south Of Granada last Thursday look
ing for barrel of copper wire which
had been stolen from the Intermoun-
tain r., L. q p. Cos power house at
Lamar, and which it was expected a
former employe, Tom Bowers, had
taken. While looking around the Bow
ers claim house he saw Frank Bow
ers and Jack johnson drive up in an
auto, and the load looking suspicious
he made an examination and found
the auto contained twenty gallons of
alcohol and whisky which they had
just brought in overland from New
Mexico. He Immediately arrested them
and confiscated the liquor and car un-
der the new liquor law. He after
wards brought in Tom Bowers and
Mr.. Yount and all four are now at
the Jail. Sheriff Downing afterwards
located the barrel of wire at Garden
City where they had sold it, and he
now has the double charge against
them of illegally bringing liquor into
the state and stealing. They have
been located south of Granada for
only a few weeks, but Tom Bowers
was here for some time in the employ
of the company, and knew where the
wire was located. There has been
quite a large amount of liquor COM
ing into the south part of the county,
and this haul made by the sheriff's
office will be a great encouragement
for the traffic, as the law confiscates
the machine in which the liquor is
brought into the state as well rs the
liquor.

MILLS GETTING READY
The Biggest Alfalfa Season in the
History Of the Valley Begins

The Biggest Alfalfa Season in the
History of the Valley Begins
The alfalfa meal mills at Kornman,
Wiley and Hartman will all begin
grinding on the new crop this week
and the others will all soon be run
ming. The acreage and the conditions
makes it a certainty that it will b.
the biggest year in the history of tho
business both for the farmers and the
mills. The acreage is larger, the
crop conditions far better than last
season in spite of being o littlc later,
and the price starts out far above any
previous figure. The mills arc now
paying S12 per ton in Che field for
the first cutting hay, and deliveries
are already being made at the mills.
The big Hartman mill only shut down
from last seasons campaign two
weeks ago, so it will be almost q con-
tinuous run for them. Three and
sometimes four crops are obtained
from the big alfalfa fields and at the
price being paid this year many of
these farms will pay in th= one sea-
son more than the land cost the own
ers. Prowers county's twelve alfalfa
mills will pay out close to two mill
lion dollars to the farmers for this
years crop and employ many hun
dreds of men in hauling, manufactur-
ing and marketing it.

DU PONT OFFER

Lack Of Foresight Means
Long Delay In Securing

In the latter part Of March, 1915,
almost q year before, the United

against Germany. an offer was made
to the War Department by Pierre
B. du Pont, president of the du Pont
corporation, located at Wilmington,

there would now be in operation a
plant sufficiently large for the
manufacture OF all the synthetic
nitric acid which will be needed
by the government for war pur-

amount to supply what is needed

pendent upon Chile for nitrates. tbut

arose which impaired our ability to
obtain nitrates from Chile the gov

themselves in q most deplorable

Gen. Crozier had frequently called
the attention of Mr.. du Pont and of
others to the menace which was oc-

foreign nations for the raw mate

Everyone who can should own a
Liberty bond. No one deserves any
special credit for owning one. Tha,
much we should all be willing, nay
glad, TO do for our country. To loan
money to the government is such a
little thing. The security is, of course
the best in the world; the bonds are
not taxable, the rate Of interest is al.
most as good as can be gotten on any
gilt edge safe investment, and equSI
to or in excess of what many saving:
banks pay.
To loan money to the government
give money, indeed, to our country, is
so triAing, compared to offering ones
life that it is shameful to haggle or
hesitate over the doing of it. 1t is
the barirg of the breast to the bullet
the tending of ones SELF that merits
commentator.
Talk as we may of patriotism, ones
duty to his country, it is no light thing
to leave home, family, all that is
near and dear, and risk sickness,
mutilation, even death, for your flag.
Surely, when so many lives are to be
offered on the altar of our country,
it would be pitiably sordid to hesitate

company is assisting in the purchase
by allowing employees to pay for the
bonds in twenty-four equal semi
monthly installments, the amounts to
be deducted from the wages. If an

of the bonds ceases and all money
paid on account is refunded, together

Robert CoweN Suggests Fund for
Dependents of Those Who Fight

to offer our money. Nay, we should
be willing to do more.
would like to see action either by
the state, or by men and women II
means, to raise or provide fund to
supplement the war wages Of Uncle
Sam with a sum which would provide
for dependents or accumulate to the
credit of those who risk their lives.
Might it not be a good thing for
our men and women of wealth, our
manufacturers and business men, to
subscribe certain amount monthly to
such fund?
Wouldn't it be commendable thing
for Omaha to start such fund, to
set the pace, to show the rial broth
erly attitude at this time? Shouldn't
we all be wiling to give until we
feel the pinch, the hurt, when we ex-
pect, nay, demand, that Our boys
make, if necessary, the supreme sacri-
flee?
The writer will be willing, yes glad,
to contribute $50 or more monthly to
such fund while the war lasts.
Where is the coward who would not
be willing to give of his paltry dol
lars for such country? 1t should be
