CONTRASTING ASSOCIATION
WOULD HELP THE FARMERS

During the past few weeks milk
checks issued to the farmers around
Denver have been getting smaller
and smaller. Milk tests reported by
the Denver distributors who buy
from the farmers show decreazc Of
as much as ten points, we are in
formed by different farmers.
The Enterprise does not question
the sincerity CT the poor, oppressed
milk trust, but we do feel that the
farmers should be organized into q
contrasting association, so they will
know whether they are getting a
square deal from the milk trust or if
they are harboring 4 lot Of boardcr
cows.
With a cow-testing association op-
Grating in this vicinity, every mem
Der would know exactly what every
COW in his herd is producing. He
would be enabled to weed out the
COWS which cause the herd to have
= low milk test and would be able
to make dairying more profitable.
Several farmera around Arvada
would be glad to join such an organ
zation II enough herds could be Sc
cured to make the proposition a sue
less. A few have SO expressed them
'elves to the Enterprise, and we
would be glad to hear from others.
Let's have a cow-testing association
n this vicinity.

TAXES DUE TODAY.
WERE YOU ABLE TO PAY7
DID you pay your taxesf

The first payment Is due, and Il
you failed to pay you must come
across with the penalty sooner or
later.
Not many, in comparison to the
large number Of taxpayers in JEFF
ferson county, had the cash to pay
with.
Some may be able to pay later,
while others may lose their property
entirely through inability to pay the
taxes.
10 most people, March 1, tax-pay-
ing day, is like the morning after
the night before.
It is the day on which they pay
for their follies on election day.
1t is the day when they realize that
1t might have been better to have
gone on for efficiency in office and
lower taxes when they cast their
votes.
County, state and municipal taxes
are high, and will be higher another
year. but the people always get just |
what they vote for and have no one
to blame but themselves.
However, there may be an awaken
ing some day, and professional po-
litical grafters may have to give way |
to efficient public servants.
But for the present the average
voter is holding his nose to the grind
stone and turning the wheel himself.
