tendent; E. Buckingham, superintend-
ent of transportation: G. A. Fort, as.
assistant general passenger agent; E.
II. Wood, general freight agent; L. H.

Considerable significance is attached
to the visit of this party of railroad

believed by local railroad men that
the visit will result in several import

and that these changes will take the
form of improved terminal facilities
and the esta blishment of a general di.
vision in JuleSburg.

MacarOni Wheat.

The Fort Collins Express has the
following to say about the new cereal.
macaroni wheat:
One of the leading millers here has
for the past year been experimenting
with macaroni wheat, trying to learn
some method of using this grain in
flour making. 3. +. Hotel of the
Fort Collins Milling and Elevator
company is so sure that his firm has
discovered a process that will make
macaroni wheat as valuable as an,
other kind in making flour for ordi,
nary bread that he has announced his
price for macaroni wheat as paid for
any other kind, and on that basis is
trying to get the farmers around here
to grow large acreage. This will be
good news to the farmers in this vicin-
ity, for macaroni wheat grows well en-
land not irrigated and Yields much
heavier than the ordinary wheat.
The experiment station has been con-
Quoting growing tests with macaroni
wheat on the Colorado plains and the
crop has generally proven to be a sue
cess. The yield on the plains gener-
ally averages as high as twenty bush
els per acre, and in some instances a
great deal higher. The only discuur-
aging feature of the crop has been
that the millers could not use this
wheat. If the Hotel process proves
to be success it will mean that thous.
ahdS of acres Of heretofore useless land
will be made to pay dividends ia wheat
crops.
Macaroni wheat was imported sew.
eral years ago from Russia by the de.
partment of agriculture and the seeds
distributed to the farmers, SAYS the
Denver News. Several hundred bush
els were sent to farmers on the Color
ado plains and the results secured
leave no room for doubt of its slcces.
as far as yield is concerned. 1t is very
hardy wheat and under similar condi
tiOns yields heavier than the varieties
| now IN use.

Good Advice to Pessimists.

Occasionally you meet man in
these days of unusually dry weather.
who is beginning to wear long coun-
tenancc because, as he says, the pros
poets are not favorable for a good crop
of grain and feed this year in eastern
Colorado. Such talk is the height of
folly and especially so for man who
has lived in eastern Colorado for any
length of time. If eastern Colorado
has ever produced a weather prophet
who has ever been able to foretell with
any reasonable degree of correctness
the weather Of this section Of country
for even two or three months, we have
never met this prophet. All weather
sIgus fail in eastern Colorado. The fact
that the fall of moisture for the past
six months has been unusually small,
certainly should be considered fayora.
BILE for the coming crop season rather
than otherwise for we get about 81
much moisture at some time during
the year There is still plenty of time
for securing an abundance of moisture
for a good crop year, and the weather
prophet with long countenance should
either go way back and sit down or
keep a stiff upper lip and saw wood

STERLING KNOCKERS GET BUSY.

The Sterling Democrat Ii authority
for the statement that a company was
organized in that town last week, and
been filed in the Office Of the secretary
of state. for the purpose OF building
reservoir on the Jumbo site in Sedg-
wick county. The members OF the
company are C. F.. Lutin. E. NJ. Gillett,
w. c. Harris and T. z. Gillett, of
Logan county; Ora Haley, of Laramie.
Wyoming, and c. l.. Allen, Of Denver.
The company is said to be capitalized
at 100000, large part Of which, we
upine, is wind, and the balance hot
air.
People in Sedgwick county, who are
familiar with the spirit which prompts
the average Sterlingite to "knock"
every enterprise which does not origi-
nate with himself. and to discourage
every undertaking that promises to
benefit any other locality than his
own, are not surprised that company
has been organized in Sterling for the
alleged purpose Of building the Jumbo
reservoir Nothing would appear
more natural to a citizen Of Sedgwick
county than that Logan county people
would attempt to Kill any enterprise
that was calculated to improve Sedg-
wick county. The company organized
in Sterling last week was conceived
for no other purpose than to prevent
the construction Of the Jumbo reSer-
voir, or to exact heavy tribute from
the parties who are now tizuring on
building the reservoir. We can not
believe that they are acting in good
faith and that they honestly intend to
build the reservoir: otherwise why
have they waited more than two years
since one of their fellow townsmen,
so called surveyor named Jenkins.
made a purported filing in the Office of
the recorder of Sedgwick county?
And why did they become SO exceed
ingly anxious to build the reservoir
only after they learned that other par
ties were figuring on building it?
We believe that the Sterling com
pany was organized either for the pur-
pose Of preventing the construction OF
the Jumbo reservoir, if possible, or to
''hold up" and exact money tribute
from the men who are working in good
faith to build the reservoir What
ever the intentions OF the organizers
Of the company may be they will new
er be realized. The jenkins socalled
filing amounts to nothing: it is too
tlirnsy even upon which to base law
suit, and should the Sterling promot
crs ever succeed in securing the recog-
milton of any court in the land, they
would d'last no longer than d SNOWFALL
in the neither regions.
The Jumbo reservoir will be built,
and it will be finished before the close
Of the year 1904, but it will not be
built by Logan county people. D. A.
Camtield aud his associates, the only
people who have any legal claim
upon the reservoir site, will Construct
the reservoir. And it will be Sedg-
wick county enterprise, built and OPP
Grated for the benefit Of Sedgwick
county people.
