grass, red top and white clover, using
from twenty to Thirty pounds per acre,
depending upon the condition of the
sod disked up and the amount of soil
stirring done. Do not make the mis-
take of using too little seed. "Stingy"
seeding gives the weeds good chance
to gain a foothold before the grass
gets started. In extremely poor,
weedy pastures the only certain means
of getting a good even stand is scarii-
cation followed by reseeding with suf-
fcient seed.
Many old pastures do not need to be
disked up and reseeded; all they need
is the application of some form of fer
tilizer.. The commonly expressed
opinion that the droppings from live
stock in pasture offsets the soil fer
tility removed to purely a fallacy. 1t
does not work out that way in prac-
tice, and we point to the worn opt pas
lures as proof. Dropp:ngs, even if
they were evenly distributed over the
land. return by no means all the soil
fertility removed.
Under ordinary conditions the man

given a chance. 1t has been found
that a ton dressing applied to past

STOCK SHIPMENT
RATE WEST CUT
BY THE RAILWAY
Santa Fe Company Grants
Reduction of IS Per Cent
for Range to Range Ship
ment to California.

A reduction of S5 per cent has
been granted by the Santa Fe rail-
way company on shipments of live
stock from ranges here to ranges
in Arizona and California, 1t was
announced at the office of the New
Mexico Cattle and Horse Growers
association yesterday. The rate
became effective yesterday and
will be in force until october 81.
While there is not a very large
movement Of cattle from New
Mexico dry ranges into Arizona.
there only being a few sections of
that state available for such ship
ment, it is expected that many
state growers will take advantage
OF the chance to ship to the green
ranges in southern California at
the reduced rate. Reports from
southern California have reached
here to the effect that the range Is
in very good condition and Is not
stocked to capacity at present.
With the granting of the reduced
rate to Arizona and California, cat
tie shippers can now ship their
stock to good ranges in all direc-
tons out of New Mexico at the
reduced rate. All railway COM
panies operating in the southwest
are cooperating in the effort to
enable the state stockmen to send
their cattle to better ranges at a
reasonable price.

SANTA f CUTS
FREIGHT RATES
ON STOCK FEED
Railway Company Makes
Reduction of 0ne-Half in
Tariff in Order to Enable
Growers to Ship in Food.

As a further measure of relief to
the livestock industry of New Mex
leo, the Santa Fe railway has an
nounced a reduction of one-half in
the freight rate into the state on
cattle feed such as cotton seed
cake, meal. hulls. corn and articles
taking the same rates from Santa
Fe line points in Texas, Oklahoma.
Kansas, Colorado and st. Joseph,
Mo. The exact date on which the
reduction will be put into action
has not yet been announced, but it
will continue until December 81.
The date when the reduction in
the freight rate will become eff
fective will be announced from the
local office of the New Mexico Cat
tie and Horse Growers association
as soon as the company officials
have completed preliminary ar
rangements for handling the ship
ments.
With the Santa Fe railway TAX
ing the lead in the movement to
aid the stockmen in drouth areas
of the state. it is expected that
other lines will cooperate and will
also grant a reduction on this type
of shipment. The effect of the cut
will be that q, large number of
growers will be able to afford to
purchase feed to winter their stock
and will be relieved of the heavy
expense of shipping to other
ranges, although reductions on the
freight rate for range shipments
have also been made by the rail-
way companies, the Santa Fe TAX
ing the initiative in the decision to
grant the lower rate.

Calo-2el is mercury: quicksilver.

If you feel bilious, headachy,
constipated and all knocked out,
just go to your druggist and get a
bottle of Dodson's Liver Tone for
a few cents which is a harmless
vegetable substitute for dangerous
calomel. Take a spoonful and II It
doesn't start your liver and
stralghten you up better and quick
er than nasty calomel and without
making you sick. you just go back
and get your money.
Don't take calomell 1t makes you
sick the next day; it loses you a

FIRES DYING OUT

st. Paul, Mimi, Oct. 5,-Condi-
lions throughout the eastern por-
ton Of the northern Minnesota for
est fire district were much more
encouraging tonight, according to
reports to the state forestry de-
partment.
No reports from the Baudette
country or from any other points
in the western part of the fire
zone had been received, but for
estry officials were inclined to be-
lieve the situation there was like
wise improving.
At Moose Lake. Meadow Lands
and Park Rapids a feeling of OPP
timism existed. The wind had
diminished while the weather had
cooled considerably. The fires for
the most part in these districts
were under control and before
morning it was expected they
would all be we'll in hand.
Three bad fires were still burn
ing in the Park Rapids district, the
worst one extending from a mile
south of Rice Lake to Twin Lakes,
a distance of approximately twelve
miles.
