TO REPLACE nRooKLlN BRIDGE

New York. Jan. 1G.-Fearfm lest

bridge is being subjected viii weak

catastrophe might be possible, engin-
GERS of the department of bridges
are reported to have determined that
the structure must be Utmost COM
pletely rebuilt To do this It win
require almost two years. and mean
while traffic between New York and
Brooklyn will have to be diverted to
the williamsburg bridge. the new
Manhattan bridge and to the Brook
iyu subway tunnel. now in course
1f construction. Four or five years
may elapse before this can be ac-
complished, as great traffic problems
will have to be solved beforehand.
Though an inspection of the
Brooklyn bridge shows it to be in a
safe condition at present, it is ad-
mitted by all the negineers who have
been connected with the work that
even steel has an age limit. and that
this limit is being rapidly ap-
preached. The structure is now hav-
ing to Withstand a weight OF traffic
which 1t never was Intended to bear
when the plans for it We're made.
and in addition to the wear and tear
which We're 10 be expected there has
been an added impairment Of the
structure by electrolysis.

Fruita Mail: Fruua should ship
car loads of peaches where now she
only ships boxes. The reason we
do not have an abundance of peach-
es. is because we do not raise peach
trees. Because there was bad win
ter fifteen years ago that made a
failure of the peach crop and killed
many OF the trees, is no reason why
this end of the valley cannot raise
peaches What few peach trees there
are in the vicinity of Fruita are load
ed with fine fruit every year. Let us
raise peaches again Fruta was tie

is IT A THEOL0GIAN college,?

is 1T \ THEOLOGIAN COLLEGE?
In an address before the State
horticultural Society in Denver there
was a spirited discussion OF the State
Agricultural College at Fort Collins.
A farmer by the name OF DeVinney
of Golden charged that THE college
was a theological institution instead
OF school for the propa cation of
The tools of agriculture as science. '
He suggested that the institution be
given the stamp of disapproval by
the convention now meeting in the
state capitol building.
1T is ridiculous" he declared. Ito
have a theologian at the head of this
institution. When a man wants to
learn something about machinery he
goes to a machinist and if he wants
to understand farming he appeals
to farmer. Why not put at the
head of this college a farmer. a man
who has had practical knowledge Of
agriculture. who has made his farm
a success and who can teach the Sc
crets OF good farming?" Mr.. DeVin-
ney's remarks We're greeted with ap-
plause.
