A HOwling Shame.

The Railroad Commissioners should
convene at Cambridge Junction i'm
mediately and.at once, and sit long,
hard and heavy on the railroad con-
nection at that place. 1t is to be
fairly presumed that the Central YER
mont management had good and
sufficient notice of the change in time
on the st. J. & L. c. Monday, but
they have utterly disregarded it and
run their trains on the Burlington 4
Lamoille division as heretofore. This
brings the Burlington train east in
the morning to Cambridge Junction
55 minutes after the mail east on the
Lake road has gone. The conse-
quences of course are that through
passengers east have either to go
back or stay at the metropolis OF
Cambridge Junction all day. The
Lamoille train connects with nothing
and can just as we'll as not leave
Burlington an hour and a half ear
ier.

acres - all the land under the

| Holbrook Canal, now called La
guna Canal, is taken from the river
near Manzanola, running north
east to Horse creek; length, 20
miles; irrigates about S, 600 acres
OF the 5, 900 acres under the canal,
1000 acres being mostly high
land.
| There are also number OF

ably total OF 20, 900 acres is irri-
gated IN this manner.
/ The headgate OF the Fl. Lyon
Canal, formerly known as the La
Junta and Lamar Canal, is located
three miles north OF La unta.
| The headgate was built in 1897 at
a cost OF SIS, 900. The Fort Lyon
lrrigates about 100, 900 acres OF
| land in Bent and Prowers counties
and in the neighborhood OF 1000
acres in Otero county. This canal
during the past year has been
widened to so feet at the bottom,
and will be the carrier for a great
system OF reservoirs constructed at
cost OF So, 600, 600 in Prowers
county. The Fort Lyon Canal
has length OF II3 miles and was
built many years in advance OF the
present settlement
Otero county is the rival of
northern Colorado in its vast fields
OF alfalfa and its enterprise in the
feeding OF sheep and cattle for the
market. Nearly 100, 900 sheep are
being fed in Otero county at the
present time, the sheep breeding
industry having made marvellous
strides during the past few years.
| Here is the rival granary
of the south, and here also is the
home OF the Rocky Ford water
melon and the netted gem canta-
loupe, which has obtained favor
and fame all over the United States
as the Rocky Ford cantaloupe.
These melons are grown to their
perfection at La Junta, Rocky
Ford, Fowler, Manzanola, Olney,
Ordway, and in Pueblo, Bent and
Prowers counties. From a partial
crop last year the Melon Growers
association distributed 5000, 900 to
the growers, but this did not rep
resent half the crop grown in the
valley.
The Santa Fe transportation de-
partment has received estimates on
the quantity OF cantaloupes shipped
out OF the Arkansas valley this
season, showing some surprising
figures, which would have been
much larger but for the lack OF ir-
rigation in some OF the newer To-
calities. There were over IL, 600
crates shipped out by express,
thirty-one refrigerator cars being
loaded out and 6s5 cars went by
freight. This would give IA, 324,-
900 cantaloupes. or one-tifth of
melon for each inhabitant of the
United States.
The present status OF horti-
culture assures this section of the |
state as one OF the greatest fruit
growing countries in the nation.
The yield of wheat is 20 to 40
bushels to the acre, oats IS to so
corn 20 to SO, melons 100
crates, onions 20, 900 pounds, sugar
beets 90 to 80 tons TO the acre.
Numerous crops were made upon
the new lands during the past year
and the first efforts were successful
in an eminent degree.
