DEEP FLOWING HAS
PROVEN BEST PRODUCER
How Can Farmer Expect to Raise
121Inch Beets in 6-Inch
Flowing.

Those who have actually per
formed the work well know that
the difference between six and ten
inch blowing just about doubles
the crop. 1t is an obvious prOpO-
sitiOn that if six inches of our
Colorado dry soil will raise any
thing, ten will raise more. One
acre plowed ten inches deep brings
as much top soil into action as two
acres plowed five inches deep at a
little more than half the cost.
To illustrate the difference: Some
years ago an engine came along
and the owner was hired to break
some bull sod nine inches deep at
five dollars an acre. Everyone
else paid two dollars and half an
acre for breaking four inches. The
land plowed nine inches produced
the acre while that which was
plowed four inches yielded less
than a ton and was mighty scrawny
at that.
Figure the fodder at twelve dol
lars a ton the five dollar blowing
produced $36 the acre, the two and
a half dollar blowing $12 Which
paid? The funniest part of it was
the neighbors said this man spent
too much for the blowing. Some
years ago it struck one of the
managers of one of our big beet
companies that since we raised
about 10 tons to the acre against
30 raised in Europe, something
must be wrong: so an expert was
brought over to propagate this
theory of deep delving
This is what he said: How can
you expect to raise a Pinch beet
in 6-inch blowing" But with all

Premium for Marquis Wheat.

Some of the millers over the
country are SO impressed with the
grinding qualities Of~the Marquis
spring wheat that they offer bon
us of 10 to Is cents per cwt. to those
farmers who will make business
of sowing it this season. These
millers have demonstrated that
the Marquis is in every respect
far better milling wheat than ever
popular Colorado Defiance. It's
use has enabled them to make a
high grade -four even better than
the Standard Kansas flour. Ten
years ago we said that the Marquis
is as good or possibly better
yielder than other varieties then in
use. Wheat values promise to be
high next fall and it is expected
that larger acreage than for sew
eral seasons past will be put into
it this spring.-Denver Field and

A spring wardrobe isn't worth a rap
without a wrap for all occasions. Brsv-
ing the fashionable age limit OF four
seasons, capes and dolmans still cling
triumphantly and persistently 70 fair
shoulders and refuse to be given the
cold shake.
Practically the only new note that
has furnished up fhe capes OF yesterday
to make them desirable for today Is the
pleat. Some capes are simply one pleat
after another in triple tiers while
others fall in sheer unbroken lengths
OF pleats from neck TO hem. Serge and
tricotine, Of course in navy blue. are
the favored fabrics for the pleated
capes. One simple effective and popular
serge model Is formed OF three tiers OF
nne accordion Dleated rufnes. picot
edged, that fall from a huge crush COL
lar OF navy taffeta and end al the knee.
The knee length by the way Is the ac-
copied finish line for the new cane
models and any falling below the line
stamps IL at once as a last seasons
garment.
An interesting coat wrap of navy
serge has an over cape OF the pIeated
serge reaching to the waist line and a
huge crush collar OF the plain serge on
top OF that. Needless to say this gar
ment Is built to cloak only the slender.
svelte and sinuous.
Wraps and mantles OF oharmeuse
and taffeta in either black. navy or
brown go in rather for shirrines and
puiiings for their adorning. Some Of

OF many buttons. An unusually artis-
tic dolman OF duvetyn has a deep crush
collar and deep facings around the arm
slits OF Persian patterned satin whose
soft tened designs are further enhanced
by an outline OF varlcolored beads.
Such a mantle as Cleopatra might
well have wrapped around her peerless
form when she went barging on the
Nile with Mark Antony, ESQ, is ready
TO fall on the shoulders OF her 1920
prototype as first aid in her yamping
of some modern easy Mark. 70 Is Of
silk duvetyn in that rare old Egyptian
blue and resplendent with conventional
lotos blooms. scarabs and all other
striking symbols Of The land OF the
Sprinx and the pyramids. These motifs
are in bizarre tones OF jade, green,
brick red and yellow outlined IN me-
tallic threads Of gold and silver. Moth
ing short OF a poetic rhapsody can
adequately describe this wrap.
More simple and tailor made yet de-
lightfully graceful in their plain soft
folds are capes Of Bolivia, Peachbloom
and Duvetyn IN sandy or mousey
shades. Self toned silk stitching is
their sole adornment but like the prov
orblal silver Innings Of the clouds these
neutral tinted capes Of chasie sim
plicity reveal reverse sides OF gorgeous

Wonderful lace wraps just one frothy

other with only yoke or panel Of
taffeta or satin TO give them a semb-
lance OF stability arc lined with misty
chiffons and altogether are as frail and
fairylike as midsummer nights

It's simply impossible not to be all
wrapped up in yourself when you're
wrapped up in one OF these wraps.
