Wide valleys at the foot of the Colorado Rockies, crossed over Indian tribes and the Spaniard Coronado seventy-nine years before the Pilgrims landed from the Mayflower at Plymouth Rock, have been turned miraculously into fertile gardens and farms through the magic touch of water supplied by 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 for thousands of thirfty people. Passing by some of the uncultivated land on my tour through the rural districts with Mr.

W. Clark, president 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 Colorado valley. Where no irrigation was used, there was nothing bat sand-colored sage brush and deg grass. But, like passing into promised land, we suddenly came upon truck gardens of luxurious green-growisg vegetables neatly laid out checker-board fashion patches segregating the various crops, and all of them thriving through life-giving water pumped with electric motors and through shallow ditches to every corner of the small farms. Further on, we came upon larger farmsmense fields of alfalfa, beets, melons (certain sections of Colorado, centering around Rocky Ford, famous for their melons), and garden vegetables loaded with the giving vitamins of Colorado shine.

In many localities gravity, ditch irrigation, is used, carrying water through large ditches from the Arkansas River Or convenient streams. This form of irrigation being supplemented by the newer underground pumping because of evident advantages. A farmer owns his own pumping equipment can have an ample supply of water from underground sources on own land. He is rot limited the supply in the river or restricted by the prior rights of other farmers. He is complete master of own water supply which is an portant factor in successful irrigation, applying water when needed and withholding water when jurious.

Mr. Clark informed me that are 115 electric pumping plants use in the Arkansas Valley district, connected on the lines of Southern Colorado Power Company. plants operate most economically, being on a special power rate signed for the advantage of customers who depend on irrigation for the success of their crops. value of the land and the yield the crops are doubled many with the use of irrigation. In there are thriving farms where would be no farms at all except this splendid application of power farmers' problems.

One thing an amateur gardener can not be sure about is whether the flock of 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 month when the special session of the general assembly just has to quit. Mostly you will accept August for better or for worse. COOKED FOOD BEST FOR DOGS, TESTS PROVE Raw meat.

sometimes advocated for dogs simply because it WaS their food in the wild state, has no greater food value and is much harder to digest than meat which is lightly cooked, according to Dr. W. Clifford, famous British nutritionist. In an exhaustive series of tests Dr. Clifford proved that cooking tc the level of a "rare" roast destroy: the anti-enzymie compounds "in the meat, while no food value is lost be cause the hardening effect of heat proteins has hardly come into play The experiments have aroused wide attention, the Journal of the Ameri can Medical Association declaring that "now the raw meat propaganda is meeting with experimental rebuff." "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.

"There is too much difference of opinion regarding the feeding of dogs, and some of the opinions entertained are not founded on fact." "All dog-lovers will welcome this new light science has shed on a mis taken belief," declared L. J. Brose mer, director of the Chappel Kennel Foundation, Rockford, Illinois. 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 pounds called enzymes, which break down the compounds in food, the Chappel Foundation explains. The turning of starches into sugar 1 is.

a typical example of enzymic action. Raw meat, Dr. Clifford found, contains "anti-enzymes" which directly oppose the digestive process. Heat destroys these properties, SO even over-cooked meat is more rapidly digested than raw meat. The sanitary value of cooking meat has long been recognized.

All agree that it is one of the greatest safe guards against entry of germs and parasites through the mouth. Tapeworm in dogs is almost always contracted from raw meat. "It has been suid that because the dog originally was a wild animal: 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 much 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 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 freshmeat biscuit or two during the day, and plenty of fresh water, will meet all the dog's dietary requirements for health, strength and a well-conditioned cout." 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. He 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 Rockford, Illinois, indicate that the same balanced ration of meat, cereals' and minerals should be given to the dog in convalescence as in health, but in smaller quantities. Dog Population There are 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.
