Disks should be gone over carefully

LAMBS fATTENED
FOR MARKETING
From 8 to 5 Months Is About
Right Age Under Ordinary
Farm Conditions.

During Heat Of Summer They Are
More Liable to Losses From Para.
sites-Breedcr Also Gets Use
Of His Money Earlier.

Under ordkl-ry farm conditions
lambs should be made ready for mar
ket at from 3 to s months Of age.
When young they make a higher rate
OF gain and will put on the same
amount of flesh for less cos than when
they are older. Then. too. they will
make but small gains during the heat
Of summer. and at this time parasites
are most troublesome and they r
thus more liable TO losses from this
cause. Risk of accidents is always
higher when the lambs are held for q
long time. More feed is saved for the
breeding flock. and less labor is needed
If the lambs are sold early. Better
prices are obtained in the spring be-
cause Of not having to meet the COM
petition Of the western lambs that are
marketed during the summer and fall.
and in addition the grower gets the
use Of his money sooner by pushing
the lambs 10 a marketable condition as
fast as possible.
Teaching Lambs to Eat.
Every effort should be made to keep
the lambs growing from the start. The
first essential is to teach them to eat.
Liberia! feeding of lambs dropped be-
o pastures are ready is profitable
under any ordinary grain prices. This
Is best done through the use of a small
inclosure known as a creep to which
the lambs have access at all times. hut
into which the ewes can not come.
The creep should contain q rack for
hay and a trough for grain. so ar
ranged that the lambs can not get their
feet nto them.
All feed given. especially ground
feed, should he clean, fresh. and free
from mold. The lambs will begin to
nibble al the feed when from 10 to l6
days of age. Pea-green alfalfa OF the
second or third cutting is one of the
most relished feeds. Flaky. wee
bran probably ranks next. For the
first few days these are the ideal feeds.

by lambs at this time and would be
especially valuable in promoting growth

Such feeds rs middlings are too
foury for extensive use. Rye is less

ARMORy AN IMMORAL PLACEs

DIR. Scoville charges that the armory
Is being conducted as an immoral place.
He simply said that things were going
on there which have n bad influence ON
the Young OF the city. He did not
make specific charges, but indicated
that young girls were playing basket
ball In bloomers while young fellows
hang around smoking cigarets, but he
limited at other conditions which ex-
erclse bad influence on charac-
ter. 1t is true, as In all camp cities,
that the moral conditions during the
war were unsatisfactory, but no one
here imagined that the armory at the
present time afforded anything but
the most wholesome advantages. III
these charges are true the facts should
he given the widest publicity and the
armory closed, as other immoral places
In Deming have been closed. Deming
will tolerate nothing which Is In itself
immoral, but ii cannot he responsible

zens who take advantage Of the social
facilities that are ment for the benefit

"The steel corporation, with the ac-
tive assistance Of the press. the courts,
the federal troops, state police and
many public officials, have denied
steel workers their rights Of free
speech, free assemblage and the right
to organize. and by this arbitrary and
ruthless misuse of power have
brought about condition which has
compelled the national committee for
organizing iron and steel workers to
vote today that the active strike phase
OF the steel campaign Is now at an
end A vigorous campaign OF educa.
tion and reorganization will be imme.
diately begun and will not cease until

WHAT WILL BECOME OF
THE LIQUOR ON HAND?

Observation-Disclosures and government
officials are beginning 10 look around
to see what will happen after January
10 to the 55,OOO,O00 gallons Of liquor
still in warehouses.
The order OF the Bureau OF Inter
nal Revenue that all exports must be
actually out Of the country at mid
night on that date has brought the
prohibition question agnin to the
| front. and there is considerable spec
nations az 10 what will follow. now
that there IL TO he no lifting OF the
ban.
Liquor interests plan TO make their
last fight In congress and have their
wares bought outright by the govern
ment. There Is considerable feeling
in crugress in favor Of this alterna-
tive, and many who favor prohibition
feel that the spirit OF the one years
grace has been grossly violated by
the wartime act. These members
will support move to have the gov
ernment take over all the liquor sup
plies.
Not very much liquor il expected
TO he exported between now and jan
uary 10. IL is pointed out by gov
ernment enforcement agents that
there is little outside demand for
American whiskey.
1t has become known also that the
government has abandoned its plan
OF concentrating this liquor in num-
ber-about fifty-central warehouses
because OF lack OF power. Regard
less OF how Illegal the sale OF whiskey
has become, the property right In II
still exists, and no authority OF the
government is sufficient 10 interfere
with its present resting place. This
was made clear by Deputy Commits
sioner GAYLORD of the Bureau Of Pro-
hibition Enforcement, regardless OF
assertions by others that It was to
be concentrated.
The liquor now is in $50 distillery
wa rehouses fifteen general bonded
warehouses and twenty brandy ware
houses, scattered all over the country
Government officials point out that
one OF two fates seems to lie in store
for the vast liquor supply II there Is
no lifting of the ban. There are: II
will be bought by the government and
either held indefinitely or destroyed
depending upon the congressional
measure authorizing purchase; or II
will be left In the hands OF the own
ers, where Il will become valueless
property, and eventually will he de
stroyed by leakage and evaporation.
There is one other alternative that
may figure in the disposition OF the
stores-there is grave danger that
large quantities may be stolen. The
fact that the warehouses are numer
ous necessitates a large guard force
II Is not looked upon as desirable
undertaking for the government tc
guard 3S5 warehouses for more thar
decade, waiting for the whiskey ir
barrels 10 dry up.
Under the Volstead act only the use
OF liquor for medicinal purposes Is
permitted. and Il is not thought that
very large quantity win be con
sumed in that way.
