Profitable Feed
for Farm Stock
Secretary Pugsley Sees Way
for Two Glasses of Farm
ers to Help Each Other.

prepared By the United States Department
OF AEriculturs.)
Distress calls have been coming tc
the United States Department of Agri-
culture from two large classes OF
farmers-from the wheat growers, who
find their market extremely bad. and
from live stock feeders In the corn
belt proper who have used up the corn
In their own neighborhoods and are
finding difficulty getting it at rea-
sonabe price from outside. In view
Of these facts says acting Secretary OF
Agriculture c. w. Pngsley. these two
classes may find 1t possible to assist
each other. He calls attention to the
fact that wheat is good feed for
live stock and that when certain ra-
tios exist between the prices of corn
and wheat the latter can be fed with
as good results as are obtained by feed
Ing corn II proper methods are fol- |
lowed.
Supply of Corn Low.
The visible supply of corn on the
drst OF July Of this year was extreme
ly low, In fact the lowest In more
than ten years, and compared with the
same time in 1922 the supply Is very
short indeed. Department figures show
hat on July first the visible supply of
,orn was 100000 bushels, compared
With 29,337,000 last year. The average
'isible supply on that date from 1915
1921, inclusive, was S,5OO,OOO
ushels, and for the period from 1910
1914 was just about 100000
ushels.
There Is possibility that in many :
laces wheat may now be fed to stock,
arficulariy the lower grades which .
ave about the same farm feeding
llue as the better grades. However, i
should be remembered that more

The death of the nations chief ex-
ecutive brings to a sad and sudden
close a tour which was planned to
bring President Harding in close touch
with the real situation and sentiments
OF the people in the entire country,
and at the same time, through ad-
dresses made at certain principal cit
les, give the people at first hand, the
plans and hopes of the administration
for the cOuntry's progress ;nd well
fare.
The presidential party left Wash
ington on June 25th, journeying west
ward, the itinerary taking in the lar
ger cities, President Harding making
speeches at Denver and Cheyenne,
Wyo., in this immediate section, the
swing then being made to the north
west into Montana and Idaho and
thence to Seattle where the party took
ship for Alaska. The return was
made by Vancouver, President Hard
ing being the first American chief ex-
ecutive to visit Canada during his
term Of office.
It was following the return to Sc
attle and just prior to leaving for
San Francisco on the presidential
train that Mr.. Harding was taken ill
with ptoma;ne poisoning, the attack
also being experienced by several 9TH
er members of the party, but not in
so serious degree.
Following the arrival at San Fran
cisco, symptoms of broncho- -pneumon-
ia developed, messages Tuesday Of last

the streets, roads. fields and yards in
to veritable lakes of water. The section
northwest of Julesburg was visited by
cloudburst, and the large volume of
water which came rushing down the
draw washed out the fill in the road
about three miles northwest of this
city, making it impossible for travel
over this. road. The "jog" in the G..
P. c. Highway north of this city just
above the state line ditch, was trans
formed into a deep stream of water,
SO deep as to swim horse, and sew
eral motorists had to have assistance
in getting out when their cars became
stalled on account of the water run
ming into the ignition system of their
cars. Considerable damage was done
to the state line ditch as well as to
several fields, which were washed
quite badly. The rain extended con-
siderable distance north, east and west
and south of here about to the county
line. With light rain again Wednes-
day night of .O8 of an inch, the total
precipitation for the week is 2.88 inch
es, making the grand total for the
year thus far of 22O9 inches. Hail
in various parts of this section during
the past week is reported to have done
considerable damage.

Julesburg at About Six O'Clock

President Harding, the twenty-ninth
president of the United States, passed
away at 1880 Pacific time Thursday
evening, August End, at the presiden-
tial suite in the Palace Hotel, San
California, his death COM
ing very suddenly. The day gave ev-
cry indication that the president was
making a good recovery from his at
tack of pneumonia, which was presag-
ed by ptomaine poisoning, save that it
was featured by considerable restless
ness, which his physicians believed to
be due to a slight attack of indiges-
ton.
Mrs. Harding was at the bedside
and was reading to the president in
the quiet Of their room at the presi-
dental suite at the Palace hotel. Mr..
Harding had been apparently resting
from the more restless period, but at
slight movement from the sufferer,
his wife noticed that something was
wrong. She Immediately summoned
DR.. Boone, who was close at hand. Ev-
en- in so short space of time the chief
executive had expired by the time the
physician reached his side.
