STATE LAND BOARD AND
CIVIL SERVICE LAW HITCH

Denver, Dec. 2S.-A peculiar condi
tion exists in relation to the state land
board and the new civil service con
stitut onal amendment. The state land
board is the only board created by
constitutional provisions. Our state
constitution provides that it shall con-
sist of three members elected for six
years each The recent amendment
adopted by the people placing civil
service in effect does not exempt the
members of the state land board and
provides for an indefinite term of Of
flee The two provisions are exactly
opposite so far as the length of term
is concerned. The question naturally
arises will the members retain their
positions under the first section or the
last section of our constitution. In
other words does the adoption of one
section repeal the other section when
there was no repeal clause in the sec
tion adopted.

HIGHER FINISH WITH SILAGE

Include silage in your ration for fat
tening livestock, for silage chcapens
the cost of gains and produces a higher
finished animal, according to p. k.
Ileerwagen OF the Colorado Agricnl-
tural college. Nj Heerwagen says:
''silage cheapens the cost of gains,
as shown by results of steer feeding
at the Colorado Experiment
station. Siaee not only made saving
ON hay, but steers fed silage along with
grain and hay required less grain, one
ton Of silage replacing l2S pounds o.
barley and .g91 tons of alfalfa.
"When silage is fed with ration cf
grain and hay higher finish on the
animal results. This is due to the fact
that the silage, which is palatable,
~ucculent feed, keeps the digestive sys-
tenn in the best of condition and I'M
proves the natural thrift of the animal.
Cattle that are fed silage do not
shrink in transit any more than do
those receiving dry roughage alone.
Silage-fed cattle should be fed hay
alone the last two or three days previ-
GUS to shipping, as this puts them in
better shape for the trip ~

LANE WOULD PROVIDE
FOR RETURNING SOLDIERS

That the plan for supplying return
ing soldiers with farm homes may be
carried forward with as little delay as
possible, Secretary of the Interior Lane
has transmitted to Governor Gunter
the draft of suggested legislative bill.
This proposal calls for law to be
known as the "Soldier Settlement
Act" Its object is to provide employ
ment and rural homes for men who
have seen service in the late war.
Two alternative plans for such co,
operation are embodied in the proposed
act. Under one the states shall furnish
the lands and the United States the
funds, and under the other the states
are permitted to participate further in
furnishing funds and also in supervis-
ing the improvement and settlement of
the lands.
1t is proposed that in each state there
shall be established fund to be
known as "Soldier Settlement Fund"
and that also there shall be created a
Soldiers Settlement Board, composed Of
three members, one to be "Soldier
Settlement Commissioner at a salar,
of $4,000 year, and the two others to
be president of the state agricultural
college and the state engineer.
This Soldier Settlement Board, it is
planned, shall satisfy itself of the prac-
ticability of each undertaking pro-
posed and shall cooperate with the au.
thorities of the United States in the
preparation of the plans. Any lands
belonging to the state or the govern
emnt and deemed by the board suitable
for the purposes of the act shall be
available for disposition by the board
and the state land board shall cooper
ate with the board.
Under the first alternative plan pro.
posed the state will provide the lands
needed for settlement and the Omitted
States will provide the money necessary
to meet the expense of reclamation and
improvement.
The basis for cooperation under the
second alternative plan requires that
the Soldier Settlement Board shall
make actual expenditures in an amount
of not less than 25 per cent of the
total investment for reclamation for
actual payment for the land, for farm
improvements and for the purchase Of
farm implements, stock and other nee
essary equipment, the board having the
option, under the supervision of the
secretary of the interior, to control

NO CURE FOR INFLUENZA
