That Mammoth Melon.

The Rocky Ford Enterprise has on its
frs, page photographic picture Of Senn-
tor Swink standing beside an upright
watermelon which is five feet long. The
melon was grown by George Todd, Jr.,
of Rocky Ford.-Pueblo Chieftain.
The Denver Post copied the picture in
it's columns on Saturday but did not re-
produce Senator Swink's features to any
commendable extent.
The picture OF the mammoth melon
publishel last week attracted much at-
tcption and was the cause Of varied COM
ments. Many people could not think it
possible that melon of the size shown
was ever grown. The descriptive matter
under the engraving neglected to state
that the picture was u specimen OF
flake" or "trick" photograph. The
melon was genuine but Photographer
Orr managed the camera in such way
rs to give it q larger relative size than
was real. Figures and cameras arc said
not to tell falsehoods but when manipu-
lated skillfully they do some tall exag-
geratiOn.

CHURCH NEWS.

Monday evening the NJ. E. Sunday
school board elected the following off,
GERS: j. h. Burr, Supt.; L. W. Babcock,
assistant supt.; Miss Agnes Clark, sec.;
Paul Burr, treasurer and librarian. Mr..
Burr has made very efficient superin-
tendent during the past year md his re-
election ensures another twelve months
Of earnest work for the school.
AT recent meeting the Epworth
League elected the following officers:
Elmer Conner, president; George Weist,
Emma Brown, Eva Stratton and Paul
Burr, vice presidents in the order named;
Roy Elser, Treasurer; Lucy Dittes, sec-
retary; Lulu Waite, organist; Clara
Weist assistant; Isaac Adair, chorister.
AT the close Of Sunday school last
Sunday Supt. Burr gave severe lecture
to girls who chew gum, talk and and gig
gle during church services. One cannot
well be too radical when speaking Of
such misdemeanors. Old or young who
can't keep their jaws still in church (for
both talking and gum chewing purposes)
should remain at home.
Tuesday evening Rev. b. F. Lawler
Of Trinidad concluded q series OF sue.
cessful meetings at the Baptist church.
Much interest was manifested and three
additions made to the church.

The furry started by few farmers
at Wichita, Kas, by the alleged suit
against Rocky Ford irrigation companies
promises to be Of short duration. Kos
Harris of Wichita, who has been in cor.
reepondence with Senator Plumb in re-
gard to the suit says: II do not think
that the ditch companies will be molested
in the least. Mr.. Plumb while he wns
in the senate wrote me quite number Of
letters upon this matter, and he investi-
gated it as far rs it was possible for any
one to do. I still have his letter in
which he stated that he did not think
that congress would ever do anything for
the farmers along the Arkansas, and TINT
congress was the only alternative by
which anything could be done. Mr..
Plumb told me that in his opinion the
national constitution was lame in the
point Of not having provided anything
concerning the rivers which run through
several states"

The Greeley potato farmers have a
sort OF association but it don't seem to
work. When the management makes a
contract they have no assurance that the
potatoes will be forthcoming. II the
price goes down the spuds will be
brought in in liberal quantities, but il
the market advances the contract goes
by default. An organization can never
succeed which has such rope-otsand
methods OF doing business. A Denver
News article quotes prominent business
man as saying that the Greeley potato
growers need man like Senator Swink
at the helm. and cites the success Of the
Rocky Ford Melon Growers Association
as evidence Of what can be done by far
mers organization under proper manage
ment.

The Proposed Ice Company.

Pursuant to tho call in last weeks En-
terprise many melon growers and other
citizens met Mt I. o. y. F. hall Wednes-
day afternoon to organize an ice COM
pany to work in connection with the
Melon Growers Association. w. NJ.
Kollock was chosen chairman and A. B.
Wallis secretary.
Mr.. Wallis explained the object Of
the meeting. which was fully set forth
in last weeks Enterprise. He said that
committee appointed by the melon di-
rectors has secured stock subscriptions to
the amount Of about sl.600 in shares OF
Is each.
A. P. Kouns handed in g telegram from
II. Woods OF Denver subscribing for ten
shares.
Mr.. Wallis said it was estimated that
and provide the sawdust. An additional
$3.50 would probably fill II with natu raj
ice from home lakes.
Mr.. Matthews said the board had pro-
positions from the Cascade ice company
to sell the ice at 40 cents per too in the
mountains for winter delivery, or S2.25
per ton hero delivered during the sum-
mer as needed.
Mr.. Matthews said that Nat. Wetzel Of
81. Louis had e,il he would take $500
stock in the ice company.
A. P. kouns said that the great bene-
fits OF the ice house would be that cold
ours oould be bad to put the cantaloupes
in and cold storage provided when there
was surplus, keeping them until there
was demand.
E. E. Swiuk said that last season or
ders were had for car loads which could
not be supplied because cars were not at
hand, neither cold storage.
John Little thought that the ice house
could be filled by home labor cheaper
and many persons thereby enabled to
take more stock than they otherwise
could.
A. P. Kouns did not fully agree.
Mr.. Wallis said that cold storage last
year would have saved the association
$4,000.
A query as to how long cantaloupes
would keep on ice brought from Mr..
Kouns the answer that it took nine days
for them to reach New York, and that
from that point they were used on At
lantic steamers on both the outgoing and
return trips, say about q days-long
enough for all practical purposes.
The amount OF money ALREADY SUBJ
scribed makes the enterprise quite hope
ful.
Messrs. Dawley, Kinney and Blinn
were named US committee to call a
meeting OF the subscribers to take steps
to secure articles OF incorporation.
The present committee on soliciting
stock subscription was continued until
tho next meeting, Monday, Dec. IL, when
incorporators will be selected and the or
ganization completed.

Cleo. I.iese of the Cascnde Ice Cs

Geo. Liese of the Cascade Ice Co.,
Colorado Springs, was in town on Satur-
day talking with the melon growers di.
rectors about furnishing ice for next
years eastern shipments.
"A movement is on foot to organize a.
company to drill an arteslan well just
west of town, near Mr.. Orcntt's farm
house. 1t is proposed to raise $1,000 for
the purpose and the McVays will do the
work.
Prof. F. D. Bruce Of Pueblo, a
teacher OF Ralston physical culture. after
spending several weeks in La Junta,
skipped in the night leaving sundry
creditors unpaid. The Democrat des-
crlbes HIM us u tough character.
DIR. Vincent of Denver will lecture in
Rocky Ford during the second week in
January. There is no more able nor en-
tertaining lecturer in the west than DR..
Vincent and the mere announcement
ought to fill the house.
Mrs. Matte Quinn Carey of La Jun
ta. we'll known to our citizens as gifted
elocutionist, will give recital in Rocky
Ford December 20. Fuller particulars
will be given in later issue.
Monday night last some scalawag
attempted to steal fruit from j. H. Swlfts
apple cellar. He was caught in the act
and left SO hastily as to drop the sack
brought to carry home the plunder. His
tracks show an enormously long foot.
Mr.. Swift holds the sack ready for the
owner on call.

The New High Line Sypl,on

The High Line Syphon under Apish.
apa creek is laid and completed except
connection with the canal at the west en- ID
Of pipe; until this is done water will be
carried over the creek by the old tlume
above the syphon. This improvement is
worthy of notice. as by it long tiume
over Apishapa creek is dispensed with
which has been great expense to main
tain, and has also been damaged by
floods thus depriving that part Of the
canal below it OF water at critical times.
The syphon has every indication Of
permanancy, it being built of pinch
slaves OF clear Texas pine, strongly
bound with 5s-round iron hoops. Tho
point where the pipe is carried under the
creek is also favorable, the bed being in
slate rock which was blasted out to a
depth sufficient to place the top Of pipe
two feet lower than the channel Of the
stream. This pipe is six feet inside diam
eter, and 100 feet long, and will carry 800
second-feet Of water, which is sufficient
at this point, it being some 80 miles be-
low the head of the canal.
