HERALD REPRESENTATIVE
ANIMADvERTS ON MANcOs

The reservoir problem Is from year
to year being practically solved. Mon
tezuma county is taking the lead of
southwest counties in the matter of
storing water. Mancos has two large
reservoirs nearly completed. Last
year the people of that place were con-
fronted with scarcity of water for
domestic use as well as for irrigation
purposes. This year it will be differ
ent. The city will have plenty of
water through a reservoir system for
which bonds were voted last year
George Bauer who owns about ,00C
acres of land in the vicinity of Man
cos. most of which is under cultiva-
ton, suffered the past two or three
years owing to lack of water. But
last year he took advantage of what
nature had already started and now
owns lake of 100 acres. located a
short distance from town The dam
is over 100 feet wide at the base and
built very securely from the founda-
ton to the top. Mr.. Bauer is not quite
satisfied with what he has already ac-
complished in this line. and will build
the dam five feet higher and
strengthen the base, the addition
costing about $4,000. This will give
depth of 35 to 40 feet over large
portion Of the lake, and guaranteeing
sufficient supply for his own use, as
well as furnishing water to rrigate
1.500 to 1000 acres belonging to 9th
er parties Mr.. Bauer also proposes
to make the lake pleasure resort
Surrounding the lake is quite heavy
body Of timber. The grounds will be
improved and a beautiful park will be
an attractive feature. Rowboats are
already at the disposal of pleasure
seekers and he Is planning to have a
launch operated by gasoline. 1t is
the purpose of Mr.. Bauer to make this
one of the finest resorts in the state,
making 1t suitable for excursion par
ties and tourists who want to spend
few days enjoying genuine outing.
The town OF Mancos Is growing and
many pretty homes have been erected
the past eighteen months. The farm
ing community is advancing Many
newcomers have bought farms and
greatly improved them Land values
have increased fully fifty per cent the
past three years. The Mancos valley
is one of the prettiest in the state.
The East Mancos mining district is

From the Mobile Register.

IOIl TIE MCDlle register.
The exhibition of stalks of sea island
cotton grown in Baldwin county, in the
Mobile Cotton Exchange, while not as
significant as the Incident would prob
ably have been if the bolls had been
allowed to mature, is worthy of no.
tice as an indication of the possibili-
ties of the area producing it, and as
contradiction of the accepted theory
among cotton growers that the sea
island off the coast of Georgia, Civ
ing the name to this fine staple, forms
the only territory for its successful Gull
tivation.
The stalks shown here were we'll
filled with healthy bolls and were part
of an experimental crop raised on land
which had previously been worked
with potatoes. They were probably the
best the grower had to offer for exhi-
bition, and, unless the fine weather
continues for another month, it is not
likely that the first experiment will
be profitable. But the progress made
with the cotton as a second growth
gives ground for the opinion that land
in Baldwin county devoted entirely to
the cultivation of sea island cotton
will bring it to maturity and fully
repay the enterprises of the planter.

MORMON DESCRIBES LOVE.
Only a Lunatic Believes Microbe
Theory, He Says.

Correspondent of the Philadelphia
Record.
Salt Lake City Correspondence of
the Philadelphia Record.-Lorin Farr,
head of the largest family in the
world. is bitterly in opposition to the
theories advanced by DR.. A. C.. Cot
ton, dean of Rush Medical College,
Chicago, that love is a disease due to
a microbe.
Mr. FAIR has had six wives, thirty
nine children, 231 grandchildren and
fifty-six great-grandchildren He has
seen his $50 or more descendants mar
ried and bearing children, and then,
too his experience as the husband of
six wives, and living with all at the
same time, makes him an authority
on the question of love al4 marriage.
Here is what DR.. Cotton says:
Truly, / believe love is a disease.
Some day we may discover the germ
that is responsible for it's existence. If
the love microbe can be destroyed,
then marriage will be founded on a
logical, rational, scientific basis and
not on the accident of the wavering,

love. Age lends no immunity from

What is the cause? Isn't it disease 2"
And here are Lorin Fairs views on
the subject:
DIR. Cotton is a lunatlc! It's bald
erdash! that's what it is. I have no
words at my command strong enough
to express my feelings on this subject.
Why, l know what love is! l know
what the love of good, pure and beau
tful women is. When a man gets down
to calling it a disease, he has lost his
reason and his judgment"
You have had much experience in
the matrimonial world" suggested the
reporter. How do you account for the
instances recited by DIR. Cotton where
men and women with fine families and
apparently happy in their domestic re
lations, have severed all such ties, left
social position, friends and wealth to
elope with a, companion"
