his statue stands "Place Etienns

honor from later times; but It
was a pitfful mistake to think

TREATMENT OF CALF SCOURS
Cut Feed one-Half Until Animal Be-
comes Hungry, Then Give
Dose of Castor Oil.

To treat a case of scours, cut the
feed to half or even less than that until
the calf has become hungry. A dose
of n to three ounces of castor oil or
paraffin oil will help to clean out the
animal and may well be given. Three
parts of formalin in a hundred parts
of water. added to the milk at
the rate of a teaspoonful to the pound
of milk will sometimes relieve the
trouble. Another very satisfactory
treatment is to add about four to five
drops of fluid extract of gelsemium to
about one in of paraffin or castor
oil and give 1t to the calf before each
feeding of milk. 1t is always advisable
TO reduce the milk to a half or a third
and divide that reduced quantity into
from two to four feelings a day.

Winter Wheat.

Denver.-The Colorado crop of win
ter wheat held about steady in condi-
ton during the month of April, due to
good rains during the fore part of the
month in most districts except The east
central n southeast. The prelimin-
airy estimates of May l forecast a crop
of 1874, 900 bushels. This estimate is
based upon he May l condition of 60
per cent, representing about 13 bushels
per acre for 1867 900 acres left for
harvest from Il sowing last fall OF
1,5TS,00O acres. The abandonment, or
the acreage that was sown last fall ana
will be plowed up and put into other
crops or otherwise considered unfit for
harvest as winter wheat, amounted to
33 per cent of the area sown, COM
pared with 20 per cent last year and
DC per cent for the past five years
The crop harvested last yea amounted
to 16,406,000 bushels, an average yield
of 10 bushels per acre on 1,262.00O
acres. In 1919 the average yield was
only 1872 bushels per acre. Only I'M
der exceptionally favorable conditions
during the remainder of the season can
the yield exceed 10 or IL bushels per
acre for the acreage remaining for har-
vest. Approximately % per cen of the
winter wheat of Colorado is grown
upon non-irrigated land. The non-lrri-
gated farming sections in the northern
and northeastern parts have fair sur
face moisture conditions for the pres
ent, but the subsoll is considered def
Client. The e~ast-central n especially
the southeastern counties of the state
have been and are still suffering from
long continued drouth, and more or
less wind and other winter damage.

KEEP ALL HEIFERS GROWING
Young Animals Are UnduIy Neglected
by Many Dairymen-Feed SiIage
and Legume Hay.

Returns get our attention. Possibly
for this reason the heifer calves are
unduly neglected. Blu this stock should
be kept growing normally. With silage
and clover or alfalfa hay, one should
feed each heifer from two to five
pounds of farm-grown grains per day.
II no silage is available, feed two
pounds OF corn daily with all the clover
or alfalfa hay the heifers Will con
sumo. With silage and no legume hay,
a good ration consists of a portion of
silage and fodder or mixed hay with n
grain mixture consisting of equal parts
of corn and linseed meal.

FALL AND SPRING CALvING
Three Years Test Conducted by Mis-
sissIppl Expert to Determine
Advantages.

Results OF three years work to de-
termine the advantages Of spring and
fall calving with dairy cattle. made
by J.. s. Moore Of the Mississippi ex-
pertinent station, show that cows
cRlving in the fall produced an aver
age of 172 pounds OF milk and 1874
pounds OF butterfat more than cows
calving in the spring. In a comparison
OF early and late fall calving the aver
age difference per year per COW was
6S3 pounds Of milk and 27.5 pounds Of
butterfat in favor of late fall calving.

MOT only the politicians. but all
~ other Americans are intensely In
terested In the prospective candidacy
of Henry Ford for a presidential NOM
nation. The vague talk that has been
heard for months and even years has
within the last week or W. crystal
lized into a definite movement" which
demands recognition. Ensel Ford Is
quoted as saying his father is seri-
ously intending to enter the race and
actually means to stand for nomina-
tion. Whether he will seek the nom
nation from the Republican or the
Democratic party or will head an In
dependent ticket is not yet known. and
is the question that Is causing the
politicians considerable anxiety. The
Republican leaders say they are not
worried about 1t, since Ford was a
Democratic candidate for the Michi-
gan senatorshlp, and that. even If he
did enter the Republican primaries.
he would not cut much OF a figure.
II is generally believed Ford VIII
be the nominee of a third party, and
II so, he will have the support or
William Randolph Hearst and all the
Hearst newspapers. In a published in
terview Hearst said: IF the presi-
dency of the United States were to
be settled by popular vote today
Henry Ford would be President, and
! am with him because Of this. He Is
the man that should have all the peo-
pies support. But the only way

idency will be to run as an independ-
ent candidate. ! am a great believer
In independence and for that reason
want 20 stand with him In his great
fight for recognition"
The American Economic league. or
ganized to sponsor n third party
movement, was in session In Omaha
last week, and Its president, Roy Nj.
Harrop, said there was no doubt that
Ford was Its choice for the presi-
dency, that the league already was
active In II states In efforts TO get
Mr.. Ford's name before the voters and
that the organization would be extend
ed until all states were Included.
Mr.. Ford himself refuses to COM
ment on the matter. because, he says,
no authoritative group has yet slgni-
fed II wants him to be n candidate.
But to a reporter he said last week (;
"As far MS national problems go the
two big problems Mt this time are the
railroads and the judiciary. We pay
our judges such inadequate salaries
that some OF them are retained by

railroads should operate under n
central head. They are one l%ndlspens-
able agency for commercial expan-
sion"

conference wound up its Chicago ses-
sion with threats to invoke cour
action to compel the interstate com
merce commission to find the Original
cost" of the railroads and the public
donations" to them.
Presidents of six big rail systems,
stirred by the doings of the LaFol-
lette conference. issued a statement
charging that the radicals do no aim
at fair regulation of the railways but
seek to cripple private management
and thus to make government owner
ship inevitable.
1.-The railways cannot furnish the
public adequate and satisfactory serv-
ice," says the statement, unless they
can constantly raise large mounts of
new capital with which to increase
the capacity of their equipment and
other facilities. They cannot raise
the new capital required for these
purposes unless they can earn a net
return sufficient to pay reasonable in
terest and dividends upon the existing
Investment in railroad properties and
upon additional investment that must
be made.
1.-THE net return the railroads are
now allowed to earn is based upon the
tentative valuation made by the inter
state commerce commission. The net
return they will be allowed to earn in
future will be based upon the final
valuation made by the commission.
The proponents of government owner
ship are seeking to get a low valua-
ton and a consequent drastic reduc-
ton of the net return allowed, for the
plain purpose of making it impossible
for the railways under private man
agement to raise new capital, enlarge
the capacity of the properties, and
satisfactorily handle the country's
business"
