Eds Patent Spuds.

Ed House has become formidable
rival of the agricultural experiment
station at Fort Collins and If there
is anything out Of the ordinary going
on in the way of agriculture you can
just bet that Ed will be trying it..
This week he is showing some OF his
famous vineless potatoes, grown
without vines, in sawdust, that are
as big as hens eggs. If his expert
ments pan out all the farmer will
have to do is to NIL his dugout with
sawdust. put in little patent
''teaser'' and some seed potatoes anc
wait for the harvest. No trouble
with bugs, hail, weeds or early frost
And no shortage of help at diggins
time, no outlay for sacks, and moth
ing to do but haul them to market
and spend the proceeds for trip tt
California. If the House experiment
bears the test of time potatoes vii
be drug ON the market.

ABOUT The CROPS
Impossible to Forecast Prices
For few Weeks Yet.

1t is not possible at the present
time to make anything like an accur-
ate forecast of prices on Weld
county's main crop, potatoes. The
outlook is fine, in fact never better
for a tremendous crop, but several
things may happen within the next
three or four weeks to materially
effect prices. Crops in the middle
states may be very good, or drouth
NAV set in or floods occur during the
month of August and crops be very
bad, all of which must necessarily
effect prices.
Acreage throughout the district
will be about equal to previous. years.
In the immediate neighborhood
of Greeley it may be little short,
but is heavier about Fort Morgan
than ever before, Beet acreage is
greater than before, but its 1nroads
have been cut into grain acreage
rather than that Of potatoes.

Had Right to Kill.

j. w. Dillon who owns a small
fruit ranch Just outside the town
limits on the west side was brought
into Judge Southard's court Thurs
day by officers of the Humane society
for the killing of birds. The special
case was the killing of grosbeck,
and the fact was easily proven. De-
fendant admitted the charge, but
claimed that he had right to do
the killing inasmuch as the birds
were feeding off of his fruits. The
legal battle between special prose-
cutor Mcintyre Of Denver and Frank
l. Ewing for the prosecution and ex-
Judge Jacobs for the defense ended
in victory for the latter. There Aas
no question but that the state law
had been violated, indeed, but the
defense contended that man had a
right to kill the birds in order to
propect his property, and that such
was not fragrant violation of the
law, in that the intent of the law
was only to prevent the wanton de-
struction of bird life.
The case was up three years age
before Judge Garrigues who gave a
like decision.

TEMPEST IN TEAPOT

Last week Judge Gabbert of the
Colorado suspreme court came up to
Greeley The judge wants Il re-
nomination pretty bad and doesn't
hesitate to get out and rustic for 1t
like any other politician. Thus his
recent tour of northern Colorado was
for the avowed purpose of mending
sences. He and Mr.. Mayher, presi-
dent of the Greeley Club, are pretty
good friends and both are republi-
cans. Mr.. Mayher who is nothing If
not hospitable thought 1t would be
the right thing to tender him a
little reception In the name of the
Greeley Club, and after consulting u
couple of the directors, who didn't
oppose the plan, the Invitations were
issued for that evening. AS the
judge happened to be renegade
democrat, it did not set at all with
the democratic club members, who,
as we'll as many of the republican
members of the club, did not relish

takes time to come and sit on the
fence and see the procession go by,
that Greeley, together with the
towns to the east and towns to the
west with the country that lies be-

of the compass, is one of the greatest
and richest and jolliest spots to be
found on this green footstool. Its
energy and enterprise displayed by
the people in getting up the big
show: its richness in therwealuh of
agricultural and other displays, and
that will be ON tap all day.
The parade will be full of sur
prises. Floats are being built be-
hind locks and bars and curtains,
, and it is against the law for any
body to peek. The Tribune came
near being cuticled last week for tell
ing just little bit of what it saw

day preceding the opening of the

point of the district. White and

but it does not follow that all float
decorations need be worked out In
these colors. In fact, the directors
prefer that many other colors be-
used, so as to add variety and gorge

Secretary John S. Davis has re-

all over the district accepting invi-

have not been heard from but who

better come early and avoid the rush.

Property Holders Ask
That the Colony Be

United Roads Receives
Petition to Evict Un-

II an old woman whose home had been
burned was making herself comfortabl BILE

would you want her thrown into the
street? II a delicate mother and two lit
tie children were occupying the adjoining
car ana trying to make the best of things.
would you want them hustled out into
draughty tents?
There is quite a colony of people who
have been burned out located In
line of Sutter street cars be-
tween Webster and Buchanan streets
The cars are water-tight and the
poor persons who were forced into
possible. They are palaces compared to
the tents in the parks. But now comes
delegation calling itself the Sutter-street
Property Owners Association. And thu
car dwellers must go, they say.
The property owners have addressed a
protest to the United Railroads Company
Here is what they say:
The property holders desiring to reap
the benefit of the improvements that are
going on in this vicinity consider the
blocking of the street as a dStriment to
progress. While we appreciate the good
you have done by permitting the homeless
10 shelter therein, we nevertheless think
that our interests should be taken into
considerati tion."
This request was received by theh COM
pany a week ago. One of the officials of
the company was delegated to order a

children was living. He did not go any
further And the car colony has not been
disturbed.
