ANNUAL DAIRY DAY
Prosperous Holly Cow Club Will Hold
Celebration Thursday, March 10

One of the Invest and most cnthus-
iastic farmers organizations Of this
section Of the state is the Holly Cow
Club and the annual dairy day cele-
bration which they will hold on next
Thursday, March 10, assisted by the
Holly Commercial Club will be one of
the big events of the season. The club
has big membership and represents
the owners of one thousand fine mol
stems, and every member is a booster
for the dairy business. The prizes
offered amount to over $500. There
are already a large list Of entries for
the prizes including many pure bred
holsteins. 1t is safe to say that there
will be a finer display of this great
money making breed of cows than has
ever before been seen in the valley.
There will be a luncheon at noon
at which Manager W. S. Partridge Of
the Amity company will preside and
short three minute talks by many To-
cal speakers will be given. There
will be a big parade, and the Bristol
band will furnish music for the day.
The main event will be the address
in the afternoon by Prof. Hugh van
Pelt, of Waterloo, Iowa, on the dairy
industry. He is one Of the leading
authorities of the country on this
subject and as this is his first trip
to this section few of our people have
had chance to hear him. Other prom
inent speakers will be Messrs. C. W.
Hall and c. H. Human, DIR. Morton
and Prof. Bray of the agricultural col
lege.
The stock Judging at the fair ground
in the morning, at which the prizes
will be awarded will be done by ex-
oerts and will be one or ti special
features Of the day.
Reduced rates on the railroad have
been granted and everything will be
free except a small charge for lunch.
No dairyman should miss this great
opportunity for receiving and ex-
changing ideas and information.

very fine hair and the cushion Of fat
next to the skin. The cow now at the
end of 10 days of gruelling test is in
the very pink Of condition. There Is
a constitutional vigor, the result Of
long and careful breeding behind this
animal as well as a very consistent
course of feeding which accounts in
large part not only for her phenome-
nal record but for the confidence of
both her owner and the farm manager
that she has an even brighter fu-
ture.
This COW not only looks like a cham
pion but has consistent record to
prove that she is a champion. She
was bred by Senator Fancher ON his
own farm. She freshened first at
the age of two years and made a rec
ord of p pounds of butter in seven
days. At the age Of three years shd
came back and increased her record
to 331a pounds. At the age of four
years and nine months she made this
record of 46.843 pounds.
The really remarkable feature, Of
this record is that this COW had two
calves within each u months since
her first freshening.
During the test Fancher Farm Max
lie made the following records Of daily
production:

IMPROVED METHODS
Denver A. VI. & =. Co. Making Ar
engagements to Make Hay Mar
keting Easy

Too many improvements have been
A. IL in the alfalfa milling industry
II Prowers county during the past
y pw years for our readers to be very
much surprised at anything Since
the first alfalfa mill timidly raised its
head above the plains Of eastern Colo
RADIO, some nine years ago, th~ indus
try has grown by leaps and bounds.
= And of course operating methods have
kept pace with the development But
however used we are to milling in
novations, we must confess chat Il
recent letter written by Floyd Wilson
of The Denver Alfalfa Milling &
Products company, rather opened our
eyes.
MIR. Wilson calls our attention to
the fact that the Hartman company
won the everlasting coed will of the
alfalfa growers by purchasing 100
new wagons; fitting them with hay
racks, and establishing an exchange
system which facilitated prompt haul
ing and removed the necessity for
double handling Of the hay. By rca-
son of this and other improvements
they were able to grind over $4,000
tons of meal this year. Now it is
proposed to extend the system far
Their, and to this end they will buy
100 more wagons (making 200 in alb
and will put in battery of tractors.
These will traverse the Santa Fc trail
and other principal roads ut regular
intervals; will pick up loaded hay
wagons, which the farmers have load
ed in the field and hauled to the lane ;
and will haul them to the nearest d.
A. NJ. & p. company mill. Tests have
already been made and il has been
ascertained that four or five wagons
can be hauled at a time.
By this means the company will not
only be able to reach distant points
and provide a ready market in sec
tions wherc, in the past, balers have
been the only purchasers; but they
will also be able to give better ser
vice near home $4,000 tons is the
mark the management has set for the
next year and this is one Of the meth
DDS upon which they depend to help
them reach the goal.
Truly alfalfa milling is developing
into quite a business. And If the
Denver company are as progressive in
their marketing methods as they are
in their relations with the growers
we can readily understand why they
have been able to hold the title of
"the largest alfalfa milling company
in the world"

Millions for Tribute

The extra session of the senate
means that time will be taken for the
consideration of the Colombian treaty
which calls for a payment Of S15,-
100000 from the treasury Of the
United States and an apology for our
enterprise in building the Panama ca
nal. The President has argued that
this will bring US friends. II is far
more likely TO invite other information
al blackmailers TO demand tribute
from US.

Mr.. Wilson's Second Term

President Wilson's second tim be-
gins today, Yhether he takes the oath
of office at noon or not He begins it
under somewhat different circum-
stances from those that attended his
first inauguration. Our foreign re-
History at some calmcr moment may
tell just how they got that way and
fix responsibility But it is no time
for patriotic Americans to be debat-
ing what should have been done two
years ago or disputing as to past sins
Of omission or commission. It is our
duty to face actual conditions end
meet them honorably, courageously,
wisely and periodically. There are
honest differences of opinion as to
Just what should be done, but these
differences are not cOlored by parti-
san prcjudices. The closing debate of
congress was 4 clash of American
opinion and not a partisan wrangle.
The stanchest defender of the presi-
dent in the senate debate WIS chair
man of the committee that drafted the
republican national platform at Chi
cago. It has been but little time
since the president declined to speak
from the same platform with him, be-
icause of his resentment at some Of
his criticisms. By q Grange irony Of
fate, the opposition was led by Mis-
souri, senator who made his campaign
for recollection on the ground that his
services were indispensable as the up
holder of the hands of the president
in foreign affairs and he has ever since
posed as the presidents spokesman in
the senate.
As the president meditates on this
situation he must experience strange
emotions He must feel like revising
his hasty conclusion that his own
party and the anti-Roosevelt progress
sives enjoyed a monopoly IF patriot
ism and political virtue He must
wonder if it would not be well to
strengthen his cabinet for such a cris-
is by inviting in some statesmen, even
| if he had to take some republicans.
1t must strike him that there are re-
publicans in both the house and SEN
ate he might well confer with as to
great policies. 1t may even occur to
him that he could depend on tine new
congress supporting every proper pro-
posal he made, if he asked support
because the proposal was right and
not merely as a partisan duty. This
is only one of the many problems of
the next four years that will require
the best thought of the nation. If
Mr.. Wilson be as wise as his warmest
admirers think, he will not t2ke as
narrow a partisan view as he has in
the past.-Globe-De

Santa Fe Man Addresses Opportunity
School

The seventh, eighth, and Einth
grade school boys and their fathers
had "reat Tuesday night in the ad-
dress given by Mr.. McKic, tr:-inmas-
ter for the Santa Fe on this division.
Mr.. McKie congratulated the boys on
the privilege they have in attending
the Opportunity school. In mas
terly way he covered the transporta-
ton field. He said that the man
problem was the biggest problem on
any railroad and showed how the rail-
road selected and schooled its men,
and provided for their advancement.
He called attention to the policy Of
the railroad to hire mcn Of steady
habits, preferably men having homes
along the railroad line. The Gppren-
tice system was described, and il
was emphasized that the railroad man
must be a student all the time. The
man who drinks and the cigarette
fiend have a place no longer in the
railroad economy. He showed how the
great TdllTOdu men lAFf NvAhth NilNli
way from the bottom up. President
Ripley of the Santa Fe began as a
railroad clerk, President Nudge of the
D. e. r. G. began rs a water carrier
for a section gang in New Mexico, and
almost without exception the great
leaders in the railroad business began
at the bottom. He asked The boys if
they knew why the lions did not eat
Daniel. Daniel had some Of the quail
tiles of successful railroad man. He
was chiefly backbone, and tn rest
grit" He explained The railroad pen
sion system and outlined the oppor-
tunities for girls in the general of
fees Of the Santa Fc at Topeka and
other railroad centers. The boys and
their fathers greatly appreciated the
fine vocational address given by Mr..
McKie.
