ANOTHER $3.50 BREAK
Lamar Baseball Team Wins and Loses
Again the Past Week.

The Lamar baseball team can't al
ways win, although they have made a
splendid record in that line this sea-
son. They have had several long win
ming streaks but have to take the small
end of the score occasionally. They
defeated the strong Eads team or last
Sunday before large crowd by a
score of 10 to /. Nehr of Holly pitch
ed for The Lamar team and the Eads
boys could do nothing with him while
the Lamar sluggers piled up big
score.
On Labor Day the c. f. & l. Co.
Stars of Pueblo came down to get re
venge for the beating Lamar gave
them earlier in the season, and they
got it. Feebeck pitched fine game
but received poor aupport from the in
field aad the result was two runs in
the first inning and six in the seventh
that should pever have been by Pueblo.
The la.1er fielded a splendid game and
the Lamar boys were forced to earn
NIL the runs they got and had num-
Der of what seemed likely runs caught
between the bases. The final score
was 10 to 6. and most of tic fans felt
it was hard game to lose.

Rocky Ford Fair Furnishes Proof That

hibits were absolutely fizzle outside

play, and all visitors AMI the repre-
sentat.yes of all tile big papers pro
sent were unanimous in pronouncing
that display the best farming exhibit
eyer made in Colorado. As the en-
tire A. B. S. Co. exhibit was raised on
the West, Center and Manvcl farms in
Prowees county it can be seen that
it was only through Prowcrs county
that the valley farm industry was saw
ed from ridicule this year.
These model farms are all splendid
examples of what our fertile soil and
first-class water rights can produce
under scientific handling. and there
are thousand. of acres of other farms
to be found here handled in thessame
manner What is needed is a home
fair to induce t4e hundreds of farm
ers here who are raising high-class
crops of all kiads to exhibit them
where visitors can see them and know
where they are raised. The trouble
with the exhibit at Rocky Ford was
that most visitors thought TIE exhibits

taking Methods-If Milk is
Kept Well it Must be
Kept Cold.

The three essentials in the produc-
ton and marketing of perfectly sat

subject of this article. By whole milk
we mean of course that it is all there
nothing added to, nor taken from it
Milk tests are reliable and convict the
dishonest dealer. Cream is worth more
than milk and when part of the cream
is removed the consumer is defrauded
1t is an unusual thing for a cow Of
any breed to give milk with less than
3Is percent butter fat and the major
ity do much better than this The
specific gravity test reveals the re-
moval of cream and the amount OF
water or skim milk that has been adj
ded.
Clean milk can only be produced by
the most painstaking methods in hand
ling. As some women are just ma
turally good housekeepers so some
dairymen are naturally clean in their
habits of handling milk.
Lastly, if milk is to keep well and
be perfectly satisfactory during tn,
summer months, it must be kept cold
from the time it comes from the COW
until it is consumed. Every dairy.
man, and every milk dealer should
keep this motto in mind: whole

Damage by Army Worm

A. V. S. T. ASSN.
r. NJ. Reed, Tester

The beets on many farms in this
section have been damaged the past
two weeks by the ravages Of the army
worm. In some sections their work
has been so serious and long main
tanned that spraying has been resort
ed to, but on most farms after a few
days work of destruction they seem
satisfied and quit as suddenly as they
began. Often they will work havoc in
one field and leave unmolested one
right alongside Of it. The pests seem
to have done their worst here now and
are beginning their ravages farther up
the valley. Both Bent and otero coun-
ties are beginning to feel their effects.
They destroy the tops of the beets,
and while these will grow again it
has the effect of injuring both the
growth and the storing of sugar in
the beets.

Very Quiet in This Section of The

Next Tuesday is the primary cleo

ment in this neck of the woods is con-
eerned it might as well be a funeral
that it is booked for the day. With
the exception of one or two minor
clashes ON local matters such interest
as exists is connected with the sena-
torial fight in the republican party
and the scrap between the regular
democrats ard the non-partisan league
for control of the democratic organic
alton. Locally the republicans have
races for sheI. IT and county clerk only
Both have been somewhat active and
are attracting considerable attention

tion for representative between

FARMERS CONSERVATIVE

Worthless Oil
Stock.

Many farmers say that they cannot
afford to finish for market the few
head of steers or hogs that they may
raise Few realize it but they are
just conservative in spots. They say
that feeding for market is . gambler's
risk, and they refuse to finish even
calf and yet they buy enormous
quantities of oil and other worthless
stock Their feed is safely taken care
of, their live stock is branded, securely
fenced on the premises, and sometimes
all are covered by insurance and yet
they refuse to take u chance ON feed
ing out, while the stock that they buy
is in an oil well in Alaska and it has
not yet been sunk This is the version
of X. W. Clark. of the Colorado Agri-
cultural College
