In drilling wheat we not only get the
seed distributed evenly, but we get q
furrow which will help to hold the
snow over the plant, and whose sides
will gradually crumble down upon the
roots and cover them as they are heaved

Corn better stands the wind storme
when cultivated strictly on the level; il
throws out brace roots above ground

the vigor which should go to the top.

FESTIVAL PREPARATIONS

Preparation for the Festival of
of Mountain and Plain has pro-
crossed 30 well that no one con-
templating visiting Denver at that
time need hesitate through fear
that the entertainment will not be
interesting.
Denver will surpass all its other
achievements in providing for the
pleasure of its guests. The plans
upon which the directors are
working are very elaborate and
contemplate attractions differing
widely from those of any previous
year. The aim has been to avoid
repetitions which would be mo-
notonous and stale. This has been
done, and, while some feature of
previous festivals will be preserved,
there will be 30 many new ones
that the whole will appear now
even to residents of the city.
Colorado has during the current
year been 80 prosperous that this
residents of mountain towns will
como to Denver in great numbers
during festival weck. 1t will be I
pleasant vacation for hundreds OF
them who do not get chance to
visit the city more than once or
twice year. 1t will be time and
money we'll spent to come when
the festival is in progress.
The invitation to attend the
festival is extended not to Colo
RADIO people only, but to the citi-
zens of the adjoining states and
territories as we'll. Denver has
room for all who may come. The
festival is growing to be looked
upon as Rocky Mountain rather
than local affair, and visitors
from outside the state will find
themselves as much at home Ms
those who live in Colorado.-Den-
yer Republican.
