it to be poor country in the main.

be relied on for crop success. 1t is

Mr.. w. G. Burke spent last Tues
day in Lamar. He says the people
of Prowers county are jubilent over
the splendid prospects for a large
crowd at Wednesdays celebration.
A delegation was sent out to the
ditch and on return reported flow
of three feet of water into the reser-
voir. Every preparation was fully
attended to for the entertainment of
the guests, and Wednesday was a
gala DAY for the county of Prowers
and the new county seat of Lamar.

In the way of farming everything
is being done these days in this COR
ner of the universe on scale of
magnificent proportions. The pres
ent season the number of acres titled
far eclipses that of 1888. Many I'M
agi1ed the limit for year or two
had been reached, but the contrary is
the case. Already contracts for the
coming year are being arranged for.
Only the other day Mr.. 7. c. Henry
closed contract with Agent Henry
A. Buffers for the blowing of 5000
acres during the summer months.
This is quite tract of land. The
mere mention of it rather takes the

fairly well in blowing and handling

SURPRISE FOR TWO.

AND THE OLD GENTLEMAN PAID FOR 1T.
The small boy was fond of music,
and there was an opera in town. 1t
was Sunday night, but he stole out,
having been refused permission by
his mother, and got away down in
front by the tiddles. He sat there
listening delightedly, when he turned
around and suddenly discovered his
father all alone in the next occupied
seat. He made no excuse. He look.
ed up and nodded pleasantly.
How do you do, sir?
What? Joseph?
Does your mother know You are
here?
No, sir. She wouldn't let me come.
And aren't you-well-ahem-
a sense of Justice struck the old
man. and the small boy knew he was
quite safe. So they enjoyed the opera
together, and then started home.
There was an awkward silence be-
tween them. The small boy waited
for his father to speak.
Aheml Joseph-we will not-it
would be bet:er-that is-needn't al
lude to this matter before your
mother.
No, sir.
There was another long pause.
Again the old man spoke, hesitat-
ingly.
Ahem, Joseph, how-how did you
get ont of the house this evening?
BY the back door.
Well-shcm!-Joseph, we'll go in
by the back way quietly, and not dis
turb the household.
And they went in the back way.
Next morning at breakfast the two
met without any sign. The mother
spoke up.
Mr.. Smith, am sure do not know
whatever is to come of that boy
Joseph.
What is the matter, my dear?
Do you know he actually came and
asked me to let him go TO the opera
last night-Sunday?
You refused, of course?
Certainly, what a question!
Then the father turned sternly to
the boy.
Joseph. am surprised. Are there
not enough week days for you 20 go
to the opera, that you must go on
Sundays?
Yes, sir. And l was going TO ask
you to give me some money TO go to-
night.
The old man looked at the small
boy, who was ingenuously looking
up in his face, and SAID nothing; but
when they left the table he took him
by the ear and said:
You young rascal, suppose you
are going to bleed me for tickets
every night?
Yes, sir, said the boy, candidly.
And he got them San Francisco

Some happy Coloradan is respsn-
sible for the following. which con-
tains as much truth as poetry:
"They are coming from the deserts
of the dim and dusty east, where to

made of gravel and they plow with
dynamite; where the festlYe chattel

their knives; with their harrows and

The v1oi1a1.y Of Laraar.

The Vicinity OF Laraaar.
The visit of certain of the Denver
business mon. to Lamar was highly
gratifying to them and, if we may
judge by reports, pleasing to the in
habitants of that enterprising and
growing town.
Lamar is the COUNTY aeat of tho
county of Prowers, and it Is tavora-
bly, situated to become one Of tho
best towns in southeastern Colorado.
It is in the midst of the Arkansas
valley. To all who know what that
valley is and appreciate its possibili.
ties in an agricultural way, this fact
is assurance that Lamar has bright
future.
The ditch which waters the coun.
try immediately tributary to Lamar
is 100 miles long. 1t Is on the north
side of the river and maintains an
average distance of about three miles
and half from the stream. 1t is
supplemented by large reservoir
covering about 800 acres. 1t is be-
lleved that the ditch, to be aided at
times by the reservoir, it contains
enough water to irrigate the land ly.
ing between it and the river. There
is also great deal of land lying on
the south side of the river suscepti.
BILE of irrigation. Altogether it is
safe to say that there are 100000
acres of land in the valley which
may be reclaimed.
1t is, propably, the best farming
land between the mountains and the
eastern line of the state. The eli
mate is taken into consideration in
this statement, for the utility of land
for farming purposes depends very
much upon climate. The Arkansas
valley climate is warmer than the
climate of this part of the state. 1t
is the opinion Of gentleman well
informed upon such subjects that
corn can be grewn there as well as
in Iowa. If this be true, it would
be possible by growing corn and al
falfa to make the Arkansas valley
one of the best cattle feeding districts
in the Union.-Denver Republican.
