ELBERT'S BIG SHORTHORN SALE
Stormy w-eather prevented a num
ber*of buyers from the outside from
attendingtbe flrstannual auction sale
of Shorthorn breeding cattle held 'inj
der the auspices of the Elbert Conn-,
ty Shorthorn Breeders’ association
at Elbert, Wednesday. October 27.
While the weather cleared Wed
nesday morning and the day proved
ideal for the holding of the sale
many from a distance who hadsignk
fled their intention of being present!
gave up the up idea of attending J
when the snow and rainstorm of,
Tuesday afternoon and evening made
motoring rather uncertain.
The attendance was large from,
Elbert und surrounding counties anj ’
practically all of the cattle sold to
stockmen and ranchers from nearby,
points. While they brought fair
prices many of the animals offered;
did not bring their true value and
doubtless would have sold for much
more had not the storm interfered
with the outside attendance. The
animuls offered were of good average
quality ad some splendid individuals
were Included.
Among the buyers were a num
ber of ranchers who purchased In
his sale the first registered Short
>orns they ever owned and who will
:se them as foundation stock for
breeding herds to be added later
The consignors, while not realiz
ing as much for some of the stock as
they had hoped to secure,are very
well pleased that the good cattle of
fered are to remain close to home,
uany of them to help establish new
herds of breeding Shorthorns whose
*wncrs will undoubtedly be future
us’emers for more and better cat
’ le.
The forty-one lots sold brought an
verage rice of $166 per head. The
op price was S2BO. paid by Ray
Cent, a young lad of Elbert.for Roan

GENERAL COLORADO NEWS
Seven of the principal crops grown
in Colorado declined in value $20,-
325,850 during the month of Sep
tember, or 12.8 percent, according
to calculations made by the State
Immigration Department, based upon
average prices September 1 ami Oc
tober 1 as reported by the "United
States Bureau of Crop Estimates.
The crops in question are corn.wheat
oats, rye barley, potatoes and hay.
•Their value on September 1 at prices
prevailing on that date was $158.-
138,240, and on October 1 it had
fallen to $137,829,120. The de
cline in values in Colorado w’as not
quite so severe as for the country at
large, the percentage of loss on the
principal crops for the United States
being 15.6 percent, according to the
calculations made by the U. S. Bu
reau of Crop Estimates. The losses
in price in Colorado were 26.7 per
cent for corn, 8.3 percent for wheat.
9 percent for oats, 16.5 percent for
rye, 45.2 percent for barley 10.7 per
cent for potatoes and 7.2 percent for
hay. The decline in prices has con
tinued in most farm products since
October 1, though figures are not at
present available showing what the
, loss has been during the month of
October. At prices prevailing at
the present time the value of. all
crops grown In the state is slightly
above $200,000,000, compared ■with
abobt $240,000,000 nt prices pre

Reports of County Assessors
Aceording to reports made to the
State Immigration Department by*i
county assessors the area devoted to
wheat In Colorado this year is about
1,400,000 acres, of which 80.12 per
cent is non-irrigated. The total
area devoted to wheat in the state
in 1909, as shown by the census bu
reau report for that year, was 34 0,-
729 acres, of which 48.9 percent was
Irrigated. The non-irrigated wheat
acreage In the state thiB year is
nearly three times as great as the
entire area devoted to wheal in
1909. Logan and Weld counties
this year have a larger acreage of
wheat than the entire state had ten
years ago. Reports of assessors
show that 75.76 percent of the wheat
gTow'n in the state this year is win
ter wheat and 24.24 percent Is spring
varieties In the northeast part of
the state, where the largest acreage
of wheat is grown, about 90 percent
of the crop Is winter wheat.

DISEASES OF DAIRY CATTLE
Careful Observation Detects Approach
ing Illness and Simple Remedies
jf) Avoid Trouble.
1 The caretaker of a dnlry herd must
"be able to recognize and treat some o*
the common diseases affecting cattle
since they are likely to occur nt any
1 time. In many cases it may be advisa
ble to employ the services of a trained
veterinarian, but often helpful home
treatment may be given. Careful ob
serration at all times usually results
. in detecting approaching illness, and
'frequently simple remedies may be ap
rolled In time to prevent further devel
opment. Prevention Is far better than
jcure and less expensive.
It Is well to keep on hand some ol
(the /aim pie and well-known drugs such
as Epsom salts, saltpeter, gum cam
phor, ginger, tincture of iodine and
alum water, and such apparatus as a
milk-fever outfit, trocar and canula
fever thermometer, hose and funnel
and drenching bottle.
DAIRY NOTES
\ The bull should be well cared for.
k ...
It takes a mighty good cow to hold
tet-r own with 25 average hens.
• • *
. Milk production Is very largely a
'matter of proper feed Induction.
• • •

It is worth as much or a little more

ffor a oow.

INDUSTRY FINDS AWAY.
As conditions change enterprling
Industry changes to meet them Priv
ate enterprise is ever on the alert to
anticipate the needs of the times. ,
| With its monthly output of elec- ,
'tiolytlc zinc increasing to about 11,-
1 000.000 pounds the Anaconda Cop- j
’per Mining Company has expanded
this department of its business to a
'point where it comparts favorable
' with the present rate of copper pro
duction which has been ent to about
4i* percent, of normal. Its zinc out-'
| put has been steadily growing since
the war.
It wil be some time before Anacon
da becomes a factor in production of
phosphate rock, but with the fulfil- j
. n.ent of the management’s plans
1 there will be placed on the market a
I super-phosphate In large quantities,
f. It is believed that the Far East of
! fers a good field for the marketing
(of phosphate rock and Anaconda,
' with Its location near the Pacific
' coast, could offer Its products at j
’prices which eastern producers would
t find it difficult to meet.
| Thus does industry maintain pay-!
