GRAZING WHEAT

In many dry-land localities, es-
pecially in northern Colorado. the
lack OF rain has reduced the natural
range or pasturage to almost moth
ing Farmers are inquiring whether
turning cattle onto their wheat
would be safe practice. Prof. AL
vim Kezer. OF the Colorado Agricul-
tural College, when asked about this
said:
THE question virtually resolves
itself into whether the farmer most
desires his wheat or the cattle.
III the wheat to be grazed has not
jointed. 1t could be pastured to some
extent without serious damage Pas
turing it after the wheat is jointed
is almost certain to reduce the yield,
and II pastured heavily, 1t Is likely
to make failure OF the wheat crop.
Accordingly. 1t is usually a choice Of
the wheat or the cattle.
III rains in this region do not
come, the wheat will not make much
Of crop. II the wheat has started
to joint and grazed heavily, even
rains will not make a crop.
In the final analysis, therefore. it
resolves itself down to which Is want
ed most-feed for the cattle or the
wheat crop.-Colorado Agricultural
College Bulletin.

FORESTS YIELD
HIGH INTEREST

THE farm woodlot or timber land
beonging to the Colorado farm or
ranch is not yet duly appreciated by
the owner and Its possibilities have
not been investigated by the average
owner" says Prof. w. J. Morrill,, Of
the Colorado Agricultural College.
Like farm products. the forest prod
ucts are bringing more money than
formerly.
"a properly managed woodlot or
piece of timber and, considering the
usual non-agricultural character Of
the forest soil and consequent low val
uation, frequently earns the owner
as high a rate Of interest. or higher,
than the rest of his farm.
BASED on figures obtained before
the war 1t was estimated that the
average farm In the United States
earned only 3h per cent on the in
vestment and only per cent II the
interest on the mortgage were de-
Quoted. Many farmers really make
no interest whatever on their invest
ment, merely getting a wage or sal
airy or living. Forest land In which
forestry is practiced yields fully as
high rate as average farming lands.
Usually 1t is assumed that forest
soil produces per cent interest as
an average. Depending upon condi-
tions, some forests earn less and 9TH
ers more than 8 per cent. At any
rate, the returns Of forestry on the
Investment average as high as agri-
culture throughout the whole coun-
try.-Agriculture News Notes.

Men Looked Forward to Time In
Penitentiary.
Lawyer Left With Some Idea That
the Persuasive Powers Of His
Learned Friend Might Have
Been Better Exercised.

One of the most interesting and elo.
Quent old-tlme pleaders at the Missouri
bar, says Case and Comment, was
Henry Clay Dean. the picturesque law.
yer Of Rebel Cove, Putnam county.
The most striking evidence OF his per
suasive powers was not given before
the jury In courtroom, however, but
In the gloomy corridors of the old jail
at Kirksvflle.
Another veteran Of the profession
Judge A. d. Risdon, tells the story.
1t was a matter of pride with Colonel
Dean. he says, that In nine cases out
OF ten he could get defendant Off In
a jury trial. But once he was called
upon to defend couple of young fel.
lows for breaking into a railway car,
and the evidence was SO strong that
even Colonel Dean saw no way out
except to plead guilty and let the boys
take the lowest sentence. Having
reached this conclusion, Colonel Dean
was admitted to the jail for talk
with his young clients. 1t happened
that there were In the same prison
two other men who had made arrange
ments with me to represent them, and,
as there was great doubt as to their
guilt, had mapped out defense
that was about as certain as ANYTHING
human could be to result In an acquit-
tai by the jury.
All four men were In the same cor
ridor, and Of course my men could hear
what Colonel Dean was saying to his
clients.
He took seat between the two
boys, laid a friendly hand on their
shoulders, and began In that smooth
pleasant way Of his TO tell them what
life in the penltentIary was. He said
he had been down there and looked all
through the building and saw how II
was conducted; that the yards, rooms
he never called them cells-and cor.
ridors were kept clean and well ventl
lated; that the men got three good
meals a day with pie and cake on Sun.

but only enough for healthful exercise
Young men went down there pale and
cadaverous, with blowholes In their
lungs, and came back strong, plump,

The next morning, when court as

Deans young clients eagerly pleaded
guilty, and mine followed suit before

Old New Years Day.

The act for the change Of style pro-
vided that the legal year In England,
1882, should commence, not on the
25th Of March. but on the first Of Jan.

tember In that year. the next ensuing
day should be held as the 14th, thus
dropping out II days. A similar
change was made about the same time
In Sweden and Tuscany. and Russia

president Of the Atlanta board Of edu.

RAYMER BALL TEAM
DEFEATS BRUSH

The Raymer ball team went to
Brush last Sunday for game of ball
with the team at that place and came
home with scalp of the Brush fans
dangling at their belt.
There were some events pulled off
that are not provided for In the reg
ular Spaulding edition OF base ball
rules.
We are unable to give a box score
Of the game as our regular reporter
was in uniform and went into the
game for the latter part
Neither side scored in the first and
second, but in the third Raymer
started bringing in one run. Brush
could not score In their half of the
third and Raymer went after the pit
cher In the fourth and scored three
times, making the score 4 to 0 In
favor Of the Dry landrs. When Brush
went to bat they managed to get
man on the bases, when high ball
was knocked out close to the foul
line in left field and rolled under the
line of automobiles
To the umpire in the center it look
ed like fair ball and he SO called
1t, but spectators declared that 1t
fell we'll outside the foul line. The
umpire did not know that Earl Tow-
Ter was calling fouls, but Earl called
it foul. The man on bases and the
batter both ran home.
The incident caused a considerable
discussion. Brush felt the need Of
the scores and refused to give in.
The manager OF the Brush team got
1t into his head that the occasion
called for a display of physical Prov
ess and he looked around for q man
small enorgllAto lick. He spied Fred
Tighe and tried to start a rough
house, but 1t did not last long for
he soon found himself laid gently on
the ground, harmless, but not dam
aged over-much.
The outcome OF the rag chewing
was that Brush was given the two
scores and managed to squeeze out
another.
In the fourth inning neither side
scored. In their half of the eth
Raymer was retired without adding
to their total. while the Brush boys
got two runs forging ahead, the score
standing and in favor of Brush.

DOUBLE-S|x HIGHWAY
HAS GOOD CHANCE

II looks like the Double-Six High
way Association will be a go" Mr.,
Ingraham attended the first meeting
Of the temporary organization in
Greeley last Friday, and met with an
enthusiasm that he says fairly took
him OF his feet. Mr.. McCrery. the
seerstazy-treasuree. Asked 70 y -
lieved Of part Of the responsibilities
Of his Office. and nominated Mr.. Olin,
publicity chairman Of the Weld
County Commercial Club. and editor
Of the Weld County Magazine. to be
secretary. and he was duly elected.
It is probable that story Of the
Double-Six Highway will be the
leading article In the next number Of
the Weld County Magazine. which is
to be a good roads number. A road
map is to be published Immediately,
and other publicity plans are con-
templated. 1t Is entirely probable
that string Of tourists through this
country will be the immediate fruits
Of the labors Of the association.
There is a possibility Of even larg-
er plans being undertaken by the as
sociation. 1t developes that Mr.. In
graham is personally acquainted
with two important officials Of the
o. l.. D. Association. We have as
surances that the advantages OF the
Double-Six route are to be brought
to the attention of the o. L. D. Deo-
pie, an those who are acquainted
with those advantages believe they
will prove very attractive to the off,
cials OF the big highway. Now, don't
get over-enthusiastic, but 1t is at
least worth q hope that some Of these
mornings Raymer may wake up to
find herself on the route Of trans
continental highway.
