day Saturday, Sunday and Monday
men and women were being saved
from buildings in the inundated dis
triets, Wherever signals of distress
were seen men set out in skiffs and
improsised boats 10 the rescue. The
swiftnsss of the current and the
amount of driftwood made the work
bazsgdous ia the extreme. Men
yentufed out atothe peril of their
lives Time and again boats were
overturned aad the occupants reached
Olfety only after most desperate
Struggle. But the risk never impeded
the work of rescue when there was
the slightest chance To reoch those
in danger. Police, soldierSo civilians
alike put their lives in jeopardy at
the Gnpulse of the common feeling

ance and was brought to town and

What The Pumps Are Doing.

| The use Of pumping plants for irri-
cation purposes is not an experiment.
but an achieved success, as those al
| ready installed are evidences that they
are all right. w. A. Hankins, three
miles south of LOvelaRd in Larimer
County, put in a plant last year. He
has twelve-horse power gasoline en-
gine which furnishes power enough to
lift water eighteen feet. The pump is
horizontal centrifugal with a capac-
ity of $50 cubic feet minute. Mr.
Hankins irrigatcs fifty acres by means
of this pump. The land is located
above ditch water and pumping is the
only way to irrigate it. This engine
consumes about one gallon of gasoline
an hour.
E. r. Skeel has in operation one Of
the largest and most successful irriga-
tion plants on his farm adjoining
Brighton in Adams county. He has
four engines and pumps at work-all
run by gasoline. The largest pump is
a31s centrifugal with 4,inch dis
charge. This pump, five-horse power
engine and well complete, cost $4,000
The running expenses range in the
neighborhood of fourteen cents an hour
The water is raised from IA well twen-
