and its relation to soil fertility.

and its relation to soil fertility.
The warm, open winters do
cause our fertility to leach out
when we have no cover crops on
the land. and therefore make US
lose as compared with the North
err farmer whose fertility is lock-
ed up by freezes. But there is
another side of the picture.
All that the Northern farmer
can DO in winter is To hold on to
| the fertility he has. On lha other
hand, when We Southern farml}s
put cover crops on our soils Wp
can not only hold the fertility We
already have-whjch is all Tie
Northern farmer can debut We
can also greatly increase soil fer
tiliry, which the Northern farther
cannot DO.
III other words, here is the stu
alton: () Without cover crops.
our warm winters make our soils
poorer than the Northern soils.
~ With cover crops, this very
same condition will make our soils
richer than Northern soil
Without cover crops, the favor
able winter climate which God
gives your farm has been agricuI-
turalIy handicap. With cover
crops, you can easily make it an
advantage. Why not do it?-The .

Arthur l.. Smart of Baca county
arrested some months ago when a
large still and some liquor was found
in house belonging to him, was tried
before the federal court at Pueblo on
Tuesday. He was defended by Judge
D. B. Kinkaid. The evidence showed
that the liquor was made during his
absence by a deputy sheriff of Baca
county. The trial judge informed the
jury that the deputy sheriff was not
under trial now. The jury after very
short deliberation brought in the fol-
lowing verdict: ave, the jury, find
that Arthur Smart was passive
violator of the law, and recommend
him to the clemency of the court" The
verdict is considered a practical vim
dication of Mr.. Smartt. This was the
