Clifford, famous British nutritionist. Id an exhaustive series of tests lr.

Clifford proved that cooking the level of a "rare" roast destroys die anti-enzyinic vompounds in tin meat, while no food value is lost he ause the hardening effect of hen' proteins has hardly come Into play The experiments have aroused wid attention, the Journal of the Ameri nn Medical Association declaring that -now the raw meat propaganda is nieeting with exeriniental rehuff." This, coming from an authentic source, ought to impress veterinarians who think raw meat is the perfect food for the dog." comments the North American Veterinarian. is too much difference of opinion regarding the feeding of dogs, and some of the opinions entertained are not founded on fact." "All don-lovers will welcome this new light science has shed on a mis rakm helief declared J. Brose nier, director of the Chappel Kennel Foundation, Rockford, Illinois. "It seems to prove beyond question that raw meat Is not the best steady diet either for dogs or humans." Changes in- food during digestion are caused by mysterious organic com IMiunds called enzymes, which break down the compounds in food, the Chappel Foundation explains. The turning of starches Into sugar is a typical example of enzymie action.

Raw meat. Dr. Clifford found, con tains "anti-enzymes" which directly oppose the digestive process. Heat destroys these properties, so even over-cooked meat Is more rapidly digested than raw meat. i The sanitary value of cooking meat has long been recognized.

All agree that It is one of the greatest safeguards against entry of germs and parasites through the mouth. Tape worm In dogs is almost always contracted from raw meat. "It has been said that because the dog originally was a wild aniiiial." raw meat Is his natural diet," says the Chappel Kennel Foundation. "But the dog was domesticated centuries ago. at a time when man himself probably lived chiefly on raw flesh torn from the bones of freshly killed animals.

"Science is constantly finding new ways in which the dog's constitution resembles our own. For them, as for us, the ordinary foods are one-sided in composition. One has too riiueh of certain essential food elements, and not enough of others. So to get a 'square meal we have to eat several different articles. "Most people who take an interest In their dog's welfare now buy.

correctly balanced kennel foods, mixed and canned under government supervision." This Is, of course, the safest way, and It is the only way the average person is able to get horse-meat, which is the most perfect meat for dogs. "One meal of a prepared ration in the evening, plus an occasional fresh-meat biscuit or two during the day, and plenty of fresh water, will meet all the dog's dietary requirements for healthstrength and a well-conditioned coat." CONVALESCENT DOG NEEDS EXTRA CARE "Yes, the operation was successful, but unfortunately the patient died." Too often a person on the very threshold of recovery from a dangerous illness will suffer a "relapse" which proves fatal. This Is not confined to human beings. It is one of the most frequent and unnecessary causes of death among dogs. The reason Is that a dog's Inherent grit and fighting spirit may be mistaken for strength, explains the Chappel Kennel Foundation.

lie Is permitted to get out and "tear around," wasting what little energy he has, when he should be still confined to rest and quiet, sunshine and simple feeding. Much chronic stomach trouble In canines, especially that which follows distemper. Is caused by a too hasty return to heavy diet. In the mistaken belief, that It will enable the patient to recover his strength quickly. The old idea of taking away meat In fever cases, because It was "heating to the blood," has been discredited.

Meat Is a natural part of the dog's diet at all times, and contains nitrogen, without which waste tissues cannot be repaired. Horse-meat, because of its soft, easily digested tissue and high nitrogen content, is generally recommended for convalescent dogs and dogs with skin trouble. Tests In the Foundation laboratories at Bock ford, Illinois, Indicate that the same balanced ration of meat, cereals' and minerals should be given to the do In convalescence as In health, but In smaller quantities. Dog Population There are about 8,000.000 dogs In the United States, or one to every, four families, according to a census recently taken by the Chappel Kennel Foundation. mi: i i I E.

56. Wide valleys at the foot of the Colorado Rockies, crossed over bf Indian tribes and the Spaniard Coronado seventy-nine years befoie the Pilgrims landed from the May flower at Plymouth Rock, have been turned miraculously into fertila gardens and farms through the magic touch of water supplied by a new form of irrigation that pumps water from an abundant underflow- underground rivers, as it were whose waters are brought to the surface to supply a livelihood foi thousands of thirfty people. Passing by some of the uncultivated land on my tour through tU; rural districts with Mr. W. Clarkpresident of Southern Colorado Power Company, which company supplies power for the pumping plants that make possible underflow irrigation, I could fully 'appreciate the change that had been wrought on those flat stretches of Colorado valley.

Where no irrigation was used, there was nothing bat sand-colored sage brush and dry fcrass. But, like passing into a promised land, we suddenly came "upon truck gardens of luxurious reen-growisg vegetables neatly laid cut checker-board fashion in patches segregating the various trops, and all of them thriving through life-giving water pumped with electric motors and run through shallow ditches to every corner of the small farms. Further tm, we came upon larger farms immense fields of alfalfa, beets, mel-tms (certain sections of Colorado, centering around Rocky Ford, arj famous for their melons), and garden vegetables loaded with the life-giving vitamins of Colorado sun-shine. In many localities gravity, or iitch irrigation, is used, carrying water through large ditches from ithe Arkansas River or convenient streams. This form cf irrigation is being supplemented by the newer underground pumping because of it-i evident advantages.

A farmer who owns his own pumping equipment: can have an ample supply of water from underground sources on his own land. He is not limited by the supply in the river or restricted by the prior rights of other fann ers. He is complete master of his own water supply which is an im portant factor in successful irrigation, applying water when needed and withholding water when in jurious. Mr. Clark informed me that there are 115 electric pumping plants tr.

use in the Arkansas Valley district connected on the lines of Southern Colorado Potwer Company. Thes3 plants operate most economically, being on a special power rate de signed for the advantage of rural customers who depend on irrigation for the success of their crops. Th value of the land and the yield of the crops are doubled many times with the ue of irrigation. In fac there are thriving farms where there would be no farms at all except for this splendid application of power to farmers' problems. MORE AND MORE FERTILE FIELDS ARE SPRINGING INTO EXISTENCE IN COLORADO THROUGH THE USE OF POWER IRRIGATION, ADDING TO THE BEAUTY, WEALTH, AND DEVELOPMENT OF THIS COLORFUL STATE.

One thing an amateur gardener can not be sure about is whether the flock cf robins he sees at work are ridding his cabbages of worms, or sampling his ripe tomatoes. Another thing to remember about Augus is that it will be the monf.h when the special session of the general assembly just has to quit. Mostly you will accept August for better or for worse. mntm Miss. Imogene King and Mis E- lamae Frohman of Columbus, wer Edinburg visitors Saturday.
