RANCH, STOCK, MINES.
From present indications we calculate i
that fully 200,000 header lambs will be
fed in northern Colorado this winter.
Prices are not yet low enough on either
western or southern stock to induce
heavy buying. The New Mexico grow-
ers have stood off too long and many of i
the Colorado alfalfa growers have sold
much of their hay or are feeding it to
cattle. Many feeders will start the
lambs on wheat and finish on corn.-
Field and Farm.
There m a strong demand for all kinds
of cattle. One firm on this market has
an order for several thousand head of
good feeders, and shippers will make no
mistake coming this way. The Denver
market is holding up strong and is act.
ualy leading all the markets on stockers
and feeders. Buyers seem to think that
they get a better grade of cattle here
and get them home without having them
hammered all over the country through
stock yards and on trains• Prices com-
pare very favorably with a year ago and
there is really no reason why shippers
should hold back their cattle.--Denver
StockIfian.
Some of the Colorado sugar factories
have started in on the annual run with
the best grown beets ever produced on
the continent. In Oterio county the
beets are testing as high as 21 per cent
in saccharine uontent and the crop prom-
it~ to be more profitable to growers
than that of last year. The average per
courage last year was 17~, but that re-
sult will be exceeded this year. In Nob.
the percentage generally goes about 12
per cent and in California 14~. The
Arkansas valley seems destined to beat
the world for high percentage and we
can probably grow just as good beets
elsewhere in Colorado.--Fmld and Farm.
All the progressive ranchmen of Colo-
rado are finding out that the raising of
scrub stock is not a paying investment
and the herds are being improved as
rapidly as pouible. A two year old steer
of improved breed is selling for as much
ae a three or four year old scrub. The
realization has also been reached that
stock to be the beet must not be neg-
Iootad and left uncured for during the
three or four stormy days of winter. A
steer will Io~ tm much flesh in that time
as can be built up in a month of ordi-
nary weather. The number of steers on
a ranch does not always give evidence of
the owner's wealth. It is the condition
of the herd that counts. A small, well
fed herd is better and commands more
profit than a large starved one.--Field
and Farm.
Ascongreat will just be organizing
when the National Live Stock Associa-
tion meets in Chicago in December,there
will be unusual interest in Washington
over the meeting, as the convention is
expected to pass upon a number of im-
portaub measures which will be forward-
ed immediately to congress for consider
lion ~ith the approval of the stockmen
of the country. Congress is +commenc-
ing to realize that the stockmen have an
organization that means something and
thm time the requests of the stockmen
will receive more than passing consider-
ation at the hands of the nation's law
maker~. Several members of the senate
and house have already announced
themselves as the champions of the meas-
ures the stockmen desire enacted and as
these measures have the approval of thei
government bureau, a most interesting
and beneficial aces/on of congress may be !
expected so far ae the stockmen, at least,
are concerned.
More in Potatoes Than In Cattle.
There is one Colorado cattleman who
has discovered that raising potatoes is
more profitable than stock growing and
he intends in future to apply himself to
agricultural pursuits, the last season
having won him to this way of thinking.
W. Lloyd Grubb of Carbondale, is the
convert, and on his "spud" profits will
take his wife on a trip to the convention
of the National Live Stock association
in Chicago and later to Mass. and Fla.,
staying in the south until next March.
Mr. Grubb owned a ranch, but last
spring disposed of it. With a portion of
the purchase money he invested in 60
aoras of land near by, which he planted
in potatoes. At the end of the season he
found that after deducting the price he
paid for hm potato land, the expense of
planting and marketing the tubers he
had a net profit of $9,000. - Republican.
Angora 0oat Raising.
A well gra~ed forty acres will support
200 goats for two years and foothill
browsing is their particular accomplish-
ment. The breeding season is from Au-
gust 1 to February. In Colorado a
breeder selects December at the best
breeding month. This brings the kids
in May when grass comes out and they
need little attention. Angora nannies
breed once a year. One buck to fifty or
seventy-five nannies is sufficient, unless
a very short kidding season is desired.
It is not easy to secure pure bucks, as
there is more or less bunco in the busi-
ness. It is desirable, therefore to buy
only from the most reputable breeders.

Recommend Deep Plowing.
Those farmers in the San Luis valley
who have not read the Field and Farm
during the last 15 years and who have
not been benefitted by the oft-repeated
advice about deep plowing can see where
they are at this fall by simply gazing
over tke wire fence of the neighbors who
read, think and act. The careless far-
mer who does not plow deep is in evi-
dence on every turnpike and his folds
can be recognized by everyone who pass
that way. The scant crop tells the story
of the grower's indifference and the
moral is a rather sad commentary on the iiomo L;:~ld Cure which has /;ee~ per-
perversity of man. Those who plow footed ~||'It_~i' maL. v ye;irs of elo~e study

On Sunday Oct. 27, the Burlington
placed its fourth exclusive fast mail train
in service between Omaha and Chicago.
It leaves the Council Bluffs transfer de-
pot at 8:05 p. m., arriving in Chicago at
7:05 a. m.--an 11 hour run.
This gives the Burlington two exclu-
sive fast mail trains each way daily on
the Omaha-Chicago run. No• 24, as the
new train is known, and No. 8 are the
east bouna trains. The latter leaves the
transfer depot at i p. m., arriving in
Chicago at 2:20 a.m. Nos. 7 and ]5 are
westbound trains, the former leaving
Chicago at 3 a. m. and arriving at the
transfer depot at 2:30 p. m. No. 15 leaves
Chicago at 9:30 p. m. and arrives at the
transfer depot at 7:55 a. m.
For several pears past the postoffice
department's figurse have shown that of
all the transcontinental mail passing
through Omaha 72 per cent. has been
westbound and only 28 per cent. east
bound. In recent years this condition of
affairs has been gradually changing, as a
direct result of the west's great prosper-
ity and the largely increased mails from
the Orient, so that these figures are no~
correct now. The increase of eastbound
mails is equalizing the volume of the
carrying buslnees to such an extent that 1
tt has become necessary to put on addi-
tional fast mail trains out of Omaha.-

The Children's Friend.
You'll have a cold this winter. Maybe
you have one now. Your children will
suffer too. For coughs, croup, bronchitis,
grip and other winter complaints, One
Minute Cough Cure never fails. Acts
promptly. It is very pleasant to the taste
and perfectly harmless. C. B. George,
Wlnohester, Ky.,.writes: "Our little girl
was attacked with croup late one night
and was so hoarse she could hardly
speak. We gave her a few doses of One
Minute Cough Cure. It relieved her im-
mediately and she went to sleep. When
she awoke next morning she had no sign
of hoarseness or croup." Saguache
