r K. Hansen took out q big load Of
barbed wire Tuesday to do some fenc-
Ing on his farm Mr.. Hansen is one
OF the Oldest settlers under the Amity
canal and also has one Of the best i'm.
proved farms. He has abundant faith
IN the ultimate success Of his section
as an agricultural country and is push
ing ahead with his work accordingly.
bar Timothy, Of the American Beet
Sugar company, came to Holly Sunday
and this week he has been calling upon
the farmers who have made beet con-
tracts for the purpose OF examining
their land and giving them personal
instructions relative to the prepara.
tion of the ground, time for planting,
and how to handle the beets through
out the season. He has charge OF all
the crritory from the state line to
Las Animas.
We firmly believe it would be we'll
worth the trouble for the farmers to
try narrowing their wheat fields this
spring, as a means Of conserving the
moisture and saving the labor OF irri-
eating. II given good narrowing as
soon as the ground becomes dry enough
from the first spring Irrigation, the
growth would be improved and at
least one irrigation would be saved. 1t
would not be an expensive experiment
and we would like to see it tried.
From the Granada Times.
J. L. Wood, the Holly lumber mcr-
chant, was In the city last Tuesday.
Irrigation has begun here. The
bitches are full Of water now and It
makes the farmers feel good.
Work on the dam across the river
was commenced last week. The dam
is located half mile west of the
bridge, and Is to catch the seepage.
This will supply the Buffalo canal
without using any water from the
Amity rights further up stream.
| z. T. Fort, OF the commission firm
of Fort 4 Co., Denver, was here last
week looking over the cantaloupe pros
poets. Mr.. Fort will handle all the
melons grown by the Holly association
which are shipped to points west Of
the Missouri river. He expressed
great satisfaction with the way in
which the people here are taking hold
of the cantaloupe business ard thinks
that II the quality is standard a good
price will be obtained this year. He
also intends to handle limited guam
tity OF watermelons from the valley
but does not advise the farmers to
plant large acreage OF these.
