Questionnaire Show* Many Can Be _
Eliminated by Good Breeding
and Proper Feeding.
,Prewired by the U. S. Department of
Agriculture.)
The question, "Why is n runt?" has
answered by hundreds of live
6l0 ,k raisers who have filled in and
returned questionnaire reports sent
(l „t by tile United States Department!
of Agriculture. These reports—near- \
]v a thousand of them—show that in-I
ferior breeding, poor feeding, and par- ;
.,sites are the three principal causes :
of undersized and underdeveloped an- j
ittuiis. In fact, about 75 per cent of j
runt it,< s s is traceable to those factors. '
All of these factors are under the con- 1
tf t ii of breeders or stock raisers who !
bv controlling them, can, in a large !
degree, eliminate runts, which, accord- j
iug t,i the reports, constitute 7 per
of all farm animals.

fact, its .real history starts in j
lS.tS, when gold was lirst dis- i
covered. J
I’lior to that time there had i
boon but little settling in this •
region. Spanish explorers had f
traversed the country in the hit- l
lor part of the Eighteenth con- |
fury, and laid claim to it. As a j
part ol the Louisiana Purchase j
it came into the possession of $
ilto United States In 1S03. Olli- I
ccrs of the United States army I
wore sent out to explore this f
wilderness among whom were f
Lieutenant Pike in 1800, and it !
was after him that Pikes Peak |
was named. In 1819 Colonel j
Long made extensive explora- j
tions and ho was followed in
1842 by Fremont, whose activi
ties In the Mexican war brought
him into much prominence. At
ilto close of the Mexican war,
Mexico ceded her rights to this
territory to the United States,
but it was considered a barren
waste and unattractive for set
tlers.
Then in 1858 came the dis
covery of gold in the bed of Dry
Creek, a few miles soutli of
where Denver now stands. The
following spring tens of thou
sands of men tioeked into what
was .lien called the Pikes Peak
country. In J859 Denver became
a town of one thousand inhabi
tants', and by the next year lmd
grown into a big city with news
papers, theaters, and a govern
ment mint.
In 1801 the Territory of Col
orado was created and in 1870
Colorado was admitted as the
thirty-eighth stale of the Union.
Its area is 103,948 square miles
ami its population entitles the
state to six presidential elec
tors. ,
The name is taken from the
Colorado river, and is a Spanish
adjective meaning "colored red.”
Colorado is often called the
Centennial State, as it was ad
mitted to the Union lust one
hundred years after the Declara
tion of Independence.
