Call Issued for a Meeting In Denver on March
lth.

The American C-attlegrowers' Associ-
alton, composed of the leading cattle
men of the West, will meet in Denver
March 4th to discuss the land leasing
question, the association now having
a bill pending before Congress. The
official call which has been issued is as
follows:
To the Members of the American
Cattltegrowers' Association and All
Cattltegrowers and Breeders: The
second annual convention of the Cat
led to meet at the Tabor opera house,
Denver, Colo, at 10 o'clock A. M. on
Tuesday, March 4, 1902, and continue

association is individual membership,

or the managing officer of any cor
~poration engaged in the growing or

bership upon the payment of an initi-
alton fee of SIS.
The program will be limited to a few
set subjects or papers, it being the
purpose of the convention to confine
the proceedings to open debate and
argument on the part of the members.
After the presentation of each sub
ject or paper sufficient time will be
given for the members to discuss the
same in fve-minute speeches. The
convention will be wholly in the hands
of it's members, and ample time will
be given for the discussion of all SUBJ
jects presented.
Many matters of interest to the cat
tlemen of the West will be introduced,
one of the most important of which is
prepared by a committee appointed
for that purpose by the association at
it's last annual meeting. The diseases
of cattle and their remedies will also
come up for discussion and papers will
be presented by the most able men in
the country on the best mode of feed
ing n fattening cattle for market in
the arid regions of the West, where but
little grain is raised.
One of the objects of fixing the date
of this convention in March was TO en-
able the Northern buyers to meet the
cattle raisers from the South and give
them a chance to become better ac-
quainted, which doubtless will result
in many sales being consummated a.
this meeting.

WATER is FILTERED.
Ice Has Not so Far Put City's
Reservoir System Out
of Business.
Is RUNNING AT FULL CAPACITY
Supt. Bancroft Has Devised an Ap-
paratus for Keeping Fill
ters Open.

The filters in the reservoir have
been covered with foot of ice for
about four weeks past, but the city
has been supplied all that time en-
tirely with filtered water. Ordinarily
the sediment settles upon the surface
of the sand basins in about two
weeks and renders them useless un-
less they are cleaned. but Superinten-
lent of Waterworks Bancroft has hit
upon a scheme by which he has been
able to get around this difficulty and
hopes to continue to do so till spring
He has found way to stir up the
surface of the sand and keep the
water going through at full capacity.
This much desired end is brought
about by the use of an improvised
harrow made of a two-inch plank
with 1O-penny nails driven through it.
1t is necessary to keep the ice loosen
ed along the edges of the basins all
the time so that the rising and fill
ing of the water. which is continually
going on. will not affect the cement
walls. The rude harrow is placed
under the ice with long rope attach
I'd on either side and then two men
with hand windIasses set on opposite
sides of the basin are used to draw il
back and forth moving along each
time so that the same surface is not
gone over twice.

NEW DEPOT PLANNED
House on Milwaukee
Site.

\ well founded rumor is current in
railroad circles that the Rock Island
is to build a handsome brick freight
depot in the spring on the site on
Twentieth street on which stands the
shack that has served for years as
the local headquarters of the Mil
waul<ee. The latter company is to
move into its new depot at the foot
of Seventeenth street Friday. The
present depot of the Rock Island is
inadequate for the roads business
and the company finds that it is
necessary to build an extension or
provide an entirely new structure. 1t
is said plans for new building have
been prepared and that early
spring will witness the beginning of
operations.
