RAISES WHEAT AND BARLEY
on THE SAME LAND
Mon,rose Press

Robert Estcp, Of Placcrfillc, who
formerly owned a farm near this city,
is authority for the statement that
two crops were raised on one Of his
fields this last season, with good
yields from both.
MT. Estcp planted barley in an s
acre field and after he had completed
this, as an experiment, he turned the
dHl. and IN rows perpendicular TO the
rows Of barley, he planted wheat.
In July he harvested the barley hay,
securing a splendid yield, and then
several months later, he threshed the
wheat, receiving a yield of 26 bushels
to the acre. This Is u remarkable re-
cord and one that has never been
duplicated in this section of Colorado
rs far rs we can ascertain. Mr.. Estep
says that the barley must have shaded
the wheat until the barley was harves-
ted, with the wheat gradually grow
ing underneath. Then, when the bar
ley was gone, the wheat shot up
rapidly.

BARNS NOT A SUCCESS
IN COLORADO CLIMATE

Field and FARM
The general idea has always been
that farm animals had to be warmly
housed in winter, just as We provide
for our own comfort a tight shelter.
1t has been definitely proven here in
Colorado, that for fattening cattle,
an open shed is better than a closed
stable and the most of our feeding is
done out of doors with no more shelf
er than congenial board sheds. In
this way, greater and m1e economical
gains are made and the appetite of
the cattle is better. This is because
they generate enough heat in, their
bodies to keep themselves comfortable
in severe weather, if protected from
wind and storm. In view of these
results with beef cattle it has been a
question to many whether dairy cows
in milk would not also do as well or
better in an open shed. Uncle Joe
Sibley of Pennsylvania has found that
with his Jerseys it is just the thing for
them. The production of milk, which
is purely a function of the nervous
system, however, is easily affected,
ard dairy cows usually do not have
the protective covering of flesh and
fat that the beef animal carries.

SUPREME
COURT TO PASS
ON REFERENDUM
To Hear Evidence and Decide
Whether Law Applies to
Ratification Of Prohibi-
tory Amendment.

Lincoln, Nov. 1.-(Special.)-Th
Nebraska state supreme court today
announced that it will hear evidence
and will pass on the question OF
whether the referendum law APP
plies to the ratification of the ma
tional prohibitory amendment, by
the state legislature.
The decision of this court will
determine whether the voters have
the right to pass on the ratification
of the national amendment, or
whether the action of the legisla-
ture can not be disturbed.
The district court of Lancaster
county ruled that the referendum
law is applicable in this instance,
whereupon the secretary of state
appealed to the supreme court At
torney John H. Hopkins of Omaha
filed a motion before the supreme
court, to dismiss the appeal of the
secretary of state. A hearing on
that motion was given October 20.
The court today decided to with
hold judgment on the motion,
WHICH was IIIduC Dy lHOoS SSSnhi6
the referendum, until final hear
ing of the case.
A referendum petition was offered
to the secretary of state July IA.
1919. The secretary of state declin-
ed to file the petition, contending
that the joint resolution OF the Ne
braska legislature, ratifying the con-
stitutional amendment, was not an
act within the meaning of the refer
endum law.
He further held that the applica-
ton of the referendum law in this
case was preeluded by section OF
the Constitution of the United
States. The case was first argued
before the Lancaster district court
August II, this court issuing writ
which ordered the secretary OF state
to file the referendum petition. The
secretary appealed to the supreme
court, which has decided to hear the
whole case on its merits and to pass
Judgment on the issues involved.

declared Mr.. Eberstein cautioned
him to keep quiet about the affair.
Later McKenna related his story
to The Bee and asked that it be pub
lished. Even then, so far as could
be learned, Commissioner Ringer
and Chief Eberstein ignored the
matter. Without having been sus-
pended for a single day pending a
pretense to investigate the charges,
Detective Murphy is still working.
The extent of Chief Eberstein's
efforts to arrive at the truth of the
charges was to make trip to the
penitentiary at Lincoln and try to
prevail on McKenna to repudiate
his statement published in The Bee.
McKenna refused to do this.
At the solicitation Of Commits
sioner Ringer and Chief Eberstein
District Judge Redick and County
Attorney Shotwell also have recon-
mended that the pardon board show
leniency, and pursuant to these
overtures by the Douglas county
officials the two confessed auton1o-
bile thieves are slated for parole
November 20. They will have
served approximately one year, cal
culating the time from the date Of
McKenna's and Jones' arrests.

is to enjoy the meal without dis
