HOWITGROWS
COUNTRY ABOUT AULT BE-
COMING GARDEN SPOT.
Difficulty in Handling Enormous
: Wheat Crop.-Greatest Po-
tato Crop in Years
Is Expected.

A visit to the little hustlng town
of Ault, twelve miles north of Gree
Icy. is necessary to fully appreciate
the Importance OF the place, both as
a shipping point and as center Of
one Of the best sections, although the
newest acquisition, to the Greeley
district. No part Of the Poudre val
ley looks more promising for great
crop of potatoes than the country
northwest. north and northeast of the
little towa. The country there is
under he Larimer county ditch, also
known as the Water Supply and Stor-
age company'S ditch, and up to about
fourteen years ago was as barren of
anything except cactus and dogweed
as any part of the wild range For
about seven years the ditch men,
toned was known as "the big dry. :"
All that is changed now, however.
an' the ditch is one Of the best in
this valley, supplying plenty of water
for all the farms under it. The re-
suit has been that within the past
seven years the farmers lucky enough
to have secuted land in that section
have grown into comfortable circum-
stances and in not a few cases, COM
paratively rich. The ditch comes
from southwesterly direction about
four miles west of Ault and passes
north of the town at distance of
from two to two and a half miles.
Nothing finer in the way of crops
was ever seen than those lying be-
tween this ditch and the Eaton ditch
about four miles south. Potatoes
and wheat ale grown almost exclus-
lively, and although only small part
of the latter crop has as vet been
threshed, enough has been done to
show that it will average forty bush
els to the acre.
Early potatoes have not done so
well as bad been hoped. very few of
them running over seventy-five sacks
to the acre. Fortunately early pota-
toes are but small fraction of the
crop. and the ate ones give promise
of more than making up for the short
age In the former. The only fear

was of an early frost to XII the
vines before the roots nave gained
| full growth. Two more weeks OF
good growing weather would make as
large crop of potatoes as has ever
been grown in the Greeley district
and with the prospects Of a ialr price
for the product the farmer sees
chance to even up on the poor crop
owing to shortage OF water year
ago.
The Larimer county ditch orig
inally reached only as far as the I'm
ion Pacific railroad traces. few
years ago, however, this was extended
about ten miles in a nOrtheasterly
direction. thus bringing under cultl-
ration a strip Of country containing
about twenty-five or thirty square
miles. The Eaton ditch farther south
also takes a similar direction and
passes north of Ault about TWO and a
half Ii. lies east OF the town, the two
making a beautiful ribbon OF green
stretching away to the northeast OF
the town farther than the eye can
see, between two high ridges OF brown
prairie. In this direction from the
town the threshing machine has been
at work and now the yellow straw
stacks dot the green ground work,
seemingly as thickly as the prair'e
dog mounds formerly occupied the
same, while every man. horse and
wagon is busy hauling the rich grain
to Ault to be converted into money.
The sudden jump in price of wheat
from ninety-tive cents to 81 last Fri
day brought in a regular deluge OF
wheat last Saturday and the grain
dealers we're kept OIL the 60 all day to
care for it all. At the same time ev-
cry merchant in town was overloaded
with orders for groceries and other
goods, that came not in small lots
but in regular wagon loads, as your
Colorado farmer has little time to
look after such things when wheat
and potato harvest is on, but must
order in large quantities to save
time.
Although the country is full OF
threshing outfits the number seems
altogether inadequate to take care OF
the immense wheat crop before the
late potato har 'est is on. and farm
ers northwest of Ault, where no ma
chine has as yet made its appearance,
are watching anxiously for the smoke
that shall herald the approach of the
steam thresher.
1t would hardly seem possible
that distance of twelve miles
should be able to work difference OF
l.50 a ton for alfalfa hay and yet
last week while this was selling at
81 so the ton in Greeley, the Ault
farmer as well as the produce man
was buying it readily at Sc ton. The
fact is that nearly all the ground has
been put into potatoes and wheat,
leaving not enough room to grow
hay sufficient for home consumption.
But little is thought of this there
now: The one great problem is to
move the wheat crop within the next
two weeks.

4 -. Won,an's Death.


John Bond was this morning found
guilty Of performing criminal operation
upon Mrs. Edith Chant. The jury retired
at p. m. yesterday and it is understood
that one member caused the delay in
reaching a VERDICT "A recommendation
for clemency was made. Sentence will be
pronounced in a day or two by Judge Har-
rison.
The crime resulted in the death of Mrs
Chant. According to the evidence the
defendant, an unlicensed practitioner, is
engaged in handling cases of the kind
which got him into, his present trouble.
The mans troubles, it seems, viii not
be over even with the >ease,in hand. There
is another Indictment against him charg-
ing him with mansiaugbtsr. Assistant
County Attorney 'Leary, who tried the
case just completed, stated this morning
that the prosecution would in all prob
ability be pushed and the defendant tried

been convicted he may be sentenced to

Senator Wilson Makes Wig
~ orous Argument. "

RECIPROCITY is rising tide which cam
not be stunned and which will eventually
win in the United States and. in my opln-
ion. it will win very soon.' Thus de-
clared Senator George p. Wilson Of Min
neapois in the senate this morning in a
speech supporting his memorial to con-
gress asking for free trade relations with
Canada. When the resolution was called
up, Senator L. o. Thorpe Of Willmar OBJ
iected.. He confessed to ignorance on
great matters Of state, and although de-
string to help the twin cities whenever
possible, he saw occasion for taking
any action at this time. He thought that
the Minnesota delegation in congress was
quite capable Of looking after the inter-
.ests of the state without advice from the
legislature. ,.
Senator Wilson, in reply, declared that
the resolution was drawn in the most gen
eral terms and simply calls for freer trade
relations with Canada. 1t does not call
for repeal of tariff on lumber or on grain,
although personally he was heartily In
favor of both.
We can't expect to forever take every
thing and give nothing" he said. 1--WE
must make concessions instead Of raising
what our friends, the democrats, call a
Chinese wall.

what sense or justice there is In a tariff
Of 50 per thousand on Canadian lumber

the equalization of the cost of produc-

In the case OF lumber as far as this
state is concerned, there is no such COM

wholly absurd. the price of both Ameri-

Senator Calhoun came to the front with
two measures devised to enable Mime
apolis to issue 100000 in permanent i'm
provement bonds The bills are calcul-
ated to correct the ambiguity in the law
which caused the bond proposition voted
upon by the citizens of Minneapolis last
November to fail Of passage because the
proposition did not secure majority Of
all the votes cast at the general election.
BY the Calhoun bills, only the votes cast
onsthe proposition are to be counted for
or against. The bonds will have to be
voted over again in 1904 and will be in
two issues, $4,000 for the permanent i'm
proven1ent fund and $350,000 for the per-
manent improvement revolving fund.

Trouble for Brainerd.
Senator Lord seems to be out to make
trouble for George s. Brainerd, who was

ed last Monday evening, Senator Lore
moved to except the name Of Mr.. Brainerd
The request was granted without dis.

to the statement made that the changes

Eight new bills were introduced, among
them a bill authorizing a $4,000 bond

to use the proceeds to defray the cost OF

motion was made to refer this last bill
to the Henrepin delegat ton, but objection
was made and just as the house was about
to get into snarl the speaker disposed of
the matter summarily by referring the bill
to the standing committee on municipal
legislation.
