Great Rush for Public Lands.

Denver-All records for the past
eight years were broken last week in
the United States land office in the
number of land claims flied. An aver
age of 5000 acres a day was applied for.
the great majority of it being so-called
desert land. One person is allowed to
take up 800 acres of this land under
the desert land act at 25 cents an acre.
and the recent boom of the Campbell
system of dry farming, combined with
the disappointment of many by the
poor land in the Uintah reservation has
caused the great rush. Not since the
new land office district was created,
taking great part of the Colorado
farming land from the jurisdiction of
this Office has such a rush for land
been recorded in Denver. The dis
trict used to extend to the Kansas
line.
One day last week sixteen desert
land claims we're filed and eight home
steads. Some of those taking up lands
are filing for homestead. and 160
acres of desert land as is allowed I'M

yeasr distinguished attorney OF Den
yer, and brother OF United States SEN
ator Henry NJ. Teller, died at his home.
ll9S Grant avenue, late Wednesday
afternoon
Although he had been in poor health
for several years. it was not generally
known that Mr.. Teller's condition was
serious until yesterday. DR.. J. N.
Hall. the attending physician, then
gave up all hope on account OF his ad-
yanced age and the serious character
of his disease, which was arterio-
sclerosis.
Mr. Teller died at 4:45 Wednesday
afternoon. He had been unconscious
since 10:30 in the morning, and the
end came peacefully. At his bedside
were his wife, his brother, United
States Senator Henry NJ. Teller. and
Mrs. Teller.
Death was caused from a heart af-
fectica from which Mr.. Teller had
been suffering for about three years.
The valves of the heart finally hard
ened and 1t was this condition which
was the immediate cause of his death.
Mr.. Teller is survived by his widow,
four sisters and three brothers. The
sisters live in Illinois, and will not be
present at the funeral. James H. Tel
Ter, brother, is a prominent attorney
of Pueblo, and A. NJ. Teller operates a
large ranch near Morrison.
Mr.. Teller leaves an estate valued
at about 100000. II consists mostly
of real estate holdings in Denver and
in mining property in Clear Creek. Gil
pin and Lake counties and in the Grip
LET Vii Iu
erty, Mr.. Teller carried about $4,000
worth of insurance, all of which was
In the name of Mrs. Teller.
Although Mr.. Teller was in his sew
enty-second year. and was the third OF
eight children, he was the first to die.
He was born in Allegheny county, New
York, April, 1884. He received his de-
gree from Oberlin College Mr.. Teller
taught school for several years while
getting his education. After being ad-
mitted to the bar, he practiced law in

taken by C. c. Dorsey. Within tho
last month, Willard Teller stepped
aside and the firm became known as

c. c.. Dorsey, William " Hodges and
Henry Bruce Teller, the last named a
son of Senator Teller.

DURANGO RUBBER FACTORIES.
Preparing to Make Rubber From Colo
RADIO Rubber Plant.

Denver-The Republicans Durango
correspondent says: The machinery
for the Dunbar rubber factory, three
carloads, is being put in place. The
plant is in the old Durango ore sam
pling works and consists of thirty ma
chimes. Their capacity will be about
twenty-six tons of rubber weed day
The great ore bins are being filled with
the ROOFS and when the machinery
starts grinding there will be large
supply of the root on hand.
The process of extraction of this
plant is a combination of mechanical
and chemical. The machinery was
made in Cleveland, Ohio, after plans
drawn by Il. G. Dunbar, the head of the
enterprise.
Joseph B. Hensley, manager of the
Topeka company, who is putting in the
second factory, is buying and storing
all the roots that are offered. His ma
chinery has not arrived, but is ex
pected at an early date. The process
used by this company is purely me
chanical. The roots are put into large
grinding machines and pulverized. The
pulp is washed back and forth till the
rubber settles at the bottom and the
woody part is washed away
One cent and half pound is paid
to the diggers. If the owners of the
Dunbar factory have no trouble in Sc
curing the amount of weed needed they
will Increase the number of machines
SO that they will require about forty
tons of weed day.
At present the weed is gathered
mostly by Mexicans and boys, and
many of them make good wages. Nav
aho Indians are beginning to get inter
ested and the industry promises to be
godsend to the Indians, to whom few
avenues of labor are open.

AIamosa Bank Failure.

Denver.-A Republican special from
Alamosa says: Business is at stand
still in Alamosa the failure of the
Bank of Alamosa having caught nearly
every business man in the town, as
well as the majority of the poor peo-
pie who had saved few hundred del
lars as the result of years of hard work
and saving.
o. p. Brown, man of seventy-five
years of age, whose wife died recently
and who was so grief-stricken that he
became demented, lost $1,000 by the
failure. He was seen walking along
the street to-day with revolver in his
hand, and when asked what he was go
ing to do, he said that he might as
well be dead. He was persuaded not
to attempt suicide.
Mrs. r F johnson had $4,000 in the
bank and is nearly crazed over her
loss. There are a hundred other cases,
and the amounts range from $500 to
$1,000.
1t is believed that Herman Schiller,
the New York brother of the Schiller
trio, has no intention of coming here to
straighten out the affairs of the bank
1t is not certain that he was interested
IN it. Abe Schiffer's whereabouts are
unknown and the opinion is expressed
on every side that he did not go TO
New York.
The county, town and school funds,
all amounting to something over S25.-
900; $4,000 from the county, $4,000 of
the school and few thousands of the
towns funds, were all in the defunet
bank, rs well as $4,000 of the build
ing and loan fund and $1,000 from four
fraternities.

THE FARM AND RANGE
eu.Ines. Of Raising seed.

There are at the present time more
than 600 seed farms in the United
States-farms, that is to say, devoted
to the production OF vegetable, held
crop and flower seeds to be sold to
farmers and gardeners Some of these
| plantations are very extensive, COM
prising as much as 1000 acres.
Cabbage seeds are produced mainly
in New York state, particularly on
Long island and in Connecticut Gu
cumber seeds come from Missouri,
Wisconsin and Nebraska.
Corn and onions for seed are raised
all over the country, and the same Is
true of melon seeds. but carrot seeds
and lettuce seeds are mostly from the
far West, California contributing the
best and the greatest quantity.
Peas for seed are obtained from the
neighborhood of Traverse, Michigan,
and Manitowoc, Wisconsin, the output
of that region being free from the lit
tie worms which are liable to infest
peas grown elsewhere.
We send immense quantities OF farm
and gar6en seeds to Europe, but i'm
port only few kinds, such as fancy
grass seeds. OF clover and grass seeds
we export hundreds of tons annually,
Yankee clover being in especially
great demand abroad.
Most of the red clover seed comes
from the neighborhood of Toledo, Ohio.
In which city is the principal market
for that product. Nowadays clover
seed is quoted as regularly as wheat
and corn on the produce exchanges,
and the same may be said of timothy
seed.
Iowa alone produced more than
bal nf fr1n
year, and during the same twelve
months we exported more than $4,000
600 worth of grass and. clover seed.
These figures will give notion of the
magnitude of one branch of the seed
raising business. Utah is of all the
states the greatest grower of the seeds
of that wonderful forage plant, alfalfa.
Onion seeds are gathered by going
through the fields and cutting off the
pods at the tops of the stalks, tying
them in bundles and threshing them
out on canvas. Beans are allowed to
stand in the field until they are yell
low, after which they are stacked up
until perfectly dry and threshed out.
Peas are permitted to get dry and
hard in the rows and then are taken
to the barn for threshing. To get cab
bage seeds, the stalks grown one year
iiluol De piduleu lne next, wien luty
run to seed. The same is true of car
rots; the roots which have developed
in one season are put into the ground
the next and go to seed
The harvesting of seeds is business
requiring no little expertness, most
kinds being gathered when not all OF
the seeds are yet ripe, because other
wise many of them would be lost.
Melons, cucumbers and tomatoes are
crushed in press and permitted to de-
cay to some extent, the crude mass be-
ing finally thrown into water, when
the pulp rises to the top the seeds
sinking to the bottom and being thus
separated out. Seed bearing stalks of
cabbages and other vegetables are car
ried to the barn in sheets and there
threshed out.

Although she is to be succeeded by
some one with more thorough techni-
cal preparation for the work, we feel
that we shall not find one more worthy

HER LIFE ENDED
MRS. ARvILLA o. MEEKER DIES AT
AGE OF NINETY.
HUSBAND FOUNDED GREELEY

Her Long and Interesting Career
Terrible Experience at the Time
CT the Meeker Massacre by White
River Utes-
Denver.-A Republican special from
White Plains. New York, states that
Mrs. Arvilla ID. Meeker. widow of the
late N. C. Meeker, died there yester-
day from senility. aged ninety years.
Mrs Arvilla d. Meeker, the widow of
Nathan Cooke Meeker, founder of
Greeley colony, was woman of
strong personality and had wonder
full career. In early life she taught
school in New England and then be-
came acquainted with the young poet
and dreamer, who later founded col
ony in the then far West and who sac
rificed his life to his convictions re-
garding the civilization of the Indian
| Mrs. Meeker and daughter were with
him when he was butchered by the
Utes at the White River agency Sep
tember %, 1879, known to history as
the "Meeker massacre" Mrs. Meeker
was slightly wounded in the affray and
held prisoner by the Indians for
three weeks.
About the time Mr.. and Mrs. Meeker
were married they became interested
in the organization of communities
which were purposed to carry out SONG
of the theories of the French Socially
Fourier, and which were supported bS
such men as Emerson, Hawthorne and
Greeley. The Brook Farm Phalanx'
became the best known of these organi-
cations.
The Meekers Joined one at Warren.
Ohio, which was dissolved in three
years.
They afterward lived in Cleveland,
Ohio. and in southern Illinois.
When the var broke out the Meeker
family were subjected to great indig-
mites from their neighbors who were
nearly all secessionists.
During these early years Mr.. Aeeker
! wrote, which he did with so much sue
cess, that in 1869 he was made agricul-
tural editor of the New York Tribune,
through whose columns he unfolded his
plan for establishing Union colony on
the banks of the Poudre river.
| In 1870 the colony was established
and the town of Greeley located, to
which Mrs. Meeker and her family
came during the first year as soon as
their home could be built, in which
they have since lived.
In 1878 Mr.. Meeker who had always
had great faith in the Indians, believ-
ing that they could be taught to pursue
an industrial life, left Greeley with his
family for the White River Indian
agency, 800 miles away, to civilize the
Indians and act as government agent
to the Ute Indians there.
The story of the subsequent massa-
ere of Mr. Meeker and the employees of
the agency by the Indians under the
control of Chief Douglas and Captain
Jack and the captivity of Mrs. Meeker
and her daughter, Josie, are part of
the history of the country.
Mrs. Meeker leaves son, Ralph
Meeler, who has been foi a long time
on the editorial staff of the New York
Tribune, and daughter. Miss Rozene
Meeker, who resides at Greeley and
who inherits the old homestead.
