Lamar has organized
the strongest Base
Ball Team in
this valley

Walter Hale has 80 acres Of beets
planted. His early planting is com,
ing up, with every indication Of q
perfect stand.
@. V. Henkle has moved the rem
nant Of his band of sheep to the
Weller range near Chivington. He
sold his main herd, 1000 head, to
some Oregon parties recently, at 3d.
rs per head.
Some young fellows without either
brains or breeding, continue to dis
turb the congregations who gather
for worship. This should be check
ed even though recourse to help from
peace officers is resorted to.
Fall wheat is making rapid growth
and all spring sown grain is coming
through the ground nicely.
The Free Rural Delivery petition
has been fully signed. 1t carries
upwards of ITO heads of families and
will serve 260 persons over 16 years
of age. It has been forwarded to
the proper representatives for in
dorsment and favorable action will
no doubt be taken as. regards it
through the differeht channels it
needs pass.
It seems to be the unanimous
opinion of every water right owner
under the Fort Lyon canal in Prov
ers county, that steps should be tax
en- to develope the King reservoir at
once, and large delegation Of water
right owners will meet the board at
Las Animas next month, and urge
the board to let the contract for this
work at the earliest possible time.
It is a valuable proposition and
no delay should be made in begin
ing development. RIO.

The President In Yellowstone Park.
The president is enjoying sixteen
day outing in the Yellowstone Ma

John Borroughs the celebrated nat
uralist, and his recreation in the park
will consist in studying animals and
in enjoying the beauties Of the for
ests and mountains, pastime to
which he is very much attached.
There will of course be no fishing or
hunting.
Several camps have been establish

surroundings and occupation while
10 the mountains will be in striking
contrast to those he has just left
and he is sure to enjoy the trip to
the fullest extent.
One of the great advantages of
having a president who is willing to
travel extensively over the country
is that he becomes familiar with the
needs of the people and Of the differ.
ent departments of the government
at first hand. President Roosevelt
is very much interested in preserv.
ing our forests, and also in the sub
ject of irrigation He has long since
famiilarized himself with these sub
