DIVERSIFIED FARMING
Man Who Has Cows And Chickens
VIII Get Along

Hayden Republican,
We have emphasized the necessity
of farmers in this section getting in
to diversified farming and every week
70 obtain more evidence 20 prove this
is the only way out for the farmer.
A business man in Hayden recently
looked over his books TO select those
who might be able TO raise money to
pay their bills. Naturally. he looked
up the names of those farmers who
had cows, chickens and hogs. To his
astonishment he discovered that all
of these fellows had already paid their
bills. a farmer who makes a prac-
tice Of buying poultry. butter and lard
is not apt TO be getting along very
well financially. Scarcely week goes
by but what some farmer tells US
that he could not get along and pay
his bills il il were not for the cows he
is milking. The stores in Hayden buy
dozens OF pounds of butter a week
and pay a good price for il, too. Why
should We not produce that butter
right here in the Hayden valley? The
only sure way for the farmer TO get
along is to raise hay or alfalfa, have
some good COWS, poultry and hogs and
raise his own horses. He can live
then, even If wheat is rs cents a
hundred.

was not necessary to feed on the road,
and the cattle turned into the market
pens in excellent condition. Not an
animal was lost, whereas of recent
years, due to slow trains, the company
generally had few dead animals 10
pay for. 1t was good for both rail-
road and men, and Mr.. Moore thinks
that now the Rio Grande has shown
it can do business, it ought to con-
tinue to make these trips next year.

TRAPS THIRTY MARTENS
NEAR THE CIMARRON
Montrose Press

Montrose Press 81
There is on exhibition in the window
of the Montrose Supply company 30
Marten pelts which were taken in the
Cimarron country by Micky Hampton
and are said to be worth cool thous-
and dollars.
In addition to securing the thirty
martens, he also trapped six minks,
two coyotes and two white ermine.
This is pretty good for a six-weeks'
trapping expidition. He quit because
the snow got so deep he couldn't get
around, as he was working six or sew
en- miles above the Cimarron ditch
headgate in the big spruce timber,
where it is high and cold.
The marten is queer animal and
hard to trap. Hampton has had ex-
perience with them before and knew
how to go after them, hence he was
so successful. An amateur would
have had hard time to catch even
one of them, as their habits are 80
different from. other animals. ~

CUTTING THE COST
OF FARM MACHINERY
H. J. wal,crsin Kansas CITY Star:

II. j. Walters,in Kansas City STAR
or the two ways in which the farm
or may cut his overhead expenses as
far as il is affected by the cost of
farm machinery, he has been quick to
adopt one method. Will he be as
quick to adopt the other?
When the price of farm products
fell. and the price of machinery held
up, the farmer was quick TO quit buy
ing machinery and by the judicious
use of repairs, to make old machinery
last a few years longer. Does the
farmer realize that by better use of
his equipment he may prolong its life
beyond the point 10 which IL may be
extended thru the use of repairs
This is pertinent query TO be made
now. At the end of the growing sea
son, where is the farm machinery stor-
ed? Has il been carefully put away
in dry place. and have all parts sub
ject TO rust and decay been thoroly
protected by grease or paint? Or is
the machinery stored in the field where
it was last used. there to remain un-
til needed again? When left exposed
to the rain and snow, and wind and
sunshine. how much does the average
implement deteoriate in Il year and
how much valuable time is spent in
removing the winters accumulation
of rust and in repairing the other
damages done by the weather before
the implement is in condition to be
usedg
These questions cannot be answered
with absolute accuracy, but any one
who spends much time in the country
knows that large part of the farm
machinery is standing out in the open.
1t is not an uncommon sight to see
grain binder standing in the corner Of
a field where it was last used. and in
many instances the canvas has not
been removed and almost universally
the delicate working parts are unpro-
tected.
1t is easy to determine which field
of corn was "laid by" last by locating
the cultivator. While the farmer is
consistently carrying out his deter
rfination not to buy new machinery
until the price level reaches that of
his own products, yet he is protecting
himself only in part so long as he fails
to take reasonable care of the ma
chinery he has.
1t is true that most farmers be-
lieve that modern machinery will wear
out before it will rust out, but do they
realize that rust and wear combined
greatly hasten the day when a new
machine must be bought? Reason
able wear cannot be avoided. but dam
age due to rust and cracking Of the
wood parts may be largely and cheap
ly prevented, and the useful life Of
the most delicate machinery be great
ly increased.
We know of instances in which
threshing machines have given good
service for 25 or 80 years and in
stances in which grain binder has
more harvests. The average life of
such machines is less than dozen
years, and in the hands of the less

CULLING CAMPAIGN TO
ADD $500. 600 PROFITS

Agricultural College -Sews-Notes:-
The statewide poultry culling cam
paign to be staged in Colorado next
July. August and September will add
half million dollars in profit 10 the
poultry industry of the state. Tho
campaign which is being planned by
the Colorado Agricultural College TX
tension Division, will be carried out
with the farmers over the entire state
in cooperation with the county agri-
cultural Agents, County Club leaders
and Home Demonstration agents.
The goal Of the campaign is TO Gull
the non-producing hens from $500
farm fiocils. The meetings held at
each farm will undoubtedly reach
thousands of farmers who will learn
how to Gull their focks-
The campaign Will have a lifelong
elect on the poultry industry besides
the immediate saving to the business
The average farm hocks of hens in
Colorado is no; self-supporting. Only
the good focks which have had extra
care and attention are paying their
way. II Is not at all uncommon for
focts which have been culled to make
clear profits Of $500 a year on every
bird
The $500 flocks to be culled in Colo
RADIO in the coming campaign will
probably have 250,0O0 good hens. Two
dollars profit on each of these hens
which have been in focks not self
supporting, will add a million dollars
to the net income from the poultry
industry. The campaign is worth
while. Let US all boost for it.

Those who are in position to know

thousand acres of head lettuce grown
there this coming summer.

in the negative. He says that there

HARRISON KING VIC
TIM HEART DISEASE

Harrison Ropson King, known gen
orally as Ed" King, died suddenly
Monfay afternoon about four O'Clock.
Mr. King with Chas. Cox, neighbor
had pumped out the latter's cistern
and then went to Mr.. Kings new
house to pump out a cistern there.
Mr.. King was pumping for while
when Mr.. Cox spelled" him. Mr..
Cox noticed that Mr.. King was laying
down on the cistern and supposed
that he was peering in the hole. He
made an examination finding that Mr..
King was apparently dead. A doctor
was called at once but nothing could
be done as life was extinct. 1t was
evident that the exertion had been
too much for his heart.
Mr.. King was born in New Diggings,
Sept. s, 1854, and came to Buckwheat
ridge with his parents when three
years old. He was married twice,
first to Maggie Mckenzie, who died
in early marriage and later to the
present widow who was Miss Cassie
Stewart They had no children. Mr..
King is also survived by a brother,
H. r. King, and two sisters, Mrs. j.
p. Williams of Lancaster and Mrs.
d. T. burlington OF Bull, Idaho. The
funeral arrangements were deferred
yesterday awaiting wires from the
various relatives.
Mr.. King was an Industrious, honest
man and a good citizen. His death
came as great shock as he had
never been sick in his life.

Insane Vagrdnt
Alarms Potosi

Ed Kovinska, alias Mr. Nobody from
Nowhere, was picked up at Potosi
last Wednesday by the village author
tiles who suspected his queer actions.
The man had been Sinking around
the village and his conduct caused
mistrust. Sheriff Holmes showing up,
the man was brought to Lancaster. He
was unable to tell much about him
self except that he had been rover
for thirty years. He did not know
where his home was. Judge GoOdsell
thought that detention for ten days
would show definitely what the mans
mental condition was. Sheriff Holmes
took Novinska across the bridge of
signs and stripped him finding among
other things a 12-incn dirk in his boot
and nasty razor around his neck.
Since landing in the bastille the
stranger has been sleeping most of the
time. Not a bad place at that" the
vag was heard to mutter.
