REUNION OF PIONEERS
ON LINCOLN PARK

Mr.. and Mrs. Dali DeWeese gave a
dinner party at their residence, For
est Home" on Elm avenue, last Thurs
day night in honor of the pioneers of
Lincoln Park 1t was their intention
to limit the invitations to those who
had resided on the Park for twenty
years, but canvass of the Inhabitants
revealed the fact that with the ex-
ception of themselves and W. H.
Slower, nobody was to be found who
had lived there that long, and they
were confronted with the dilemma of
having but one guest or changing their
plans, and they chose the latter
Mr.. and Mrs. 3. G. Woodford, who
have resided on Lincoln Park for
eighteen years, were included among
the eligibles, so were DR.. and Mrs. ].
l.. Prentiss, for it was through the
Doctors enterprise that the first water
for irrigation purposes was gotten on
the territory included within the boun-
daries of Lincoln Park and its reclaim
alton from semi-aridity to verdancy
inaugurated.
The changes that have been wrought
on Lincoln Park in twenty years are
almost miraculous. Instead of a
broad expanse of sand, producing but
little vegetation except sage brush and
cactus, it has, under the magic influ-
ence of water. been made to blossom
as the rose and is now one of the most
delightful residential communities to
be found anywhere in the West. The
transformation that has taken place
is due in very large measure to the
courage and enterprise of Dali De-
Weese and it was peculiarly fitting
that reunion of those who had been
should be held at his home. The fruit
and garden products of Lincoln Park
have a wide celebrity and are a per-
enniaI monument to its founder. 1t
is now the home of two hundred fam
lilies and in the course of the next five
years its population will more than
double IL the present ratio of increase
is maintained, as there is every reason
to believe II will be.
The commemorative dinner at Mr..
Deweeses last Thursday night was
an elaborate affair In view of the small
number of guests and Its recollection
will long remain a delightful memory
to those present. The house was very
beautifully decorated with roses and
other flowers grown at Forest Home"
and the cuisine was at once delicious
and appetizing. The markets were laid
under tribute for everything good and
the menu was voted to be splendid
example of culinary art.

DALI DEWEESE TALKS
FOR BETTER WATER
Editor Record:

EOlIOr h9COTu.
The article of Mr.. B. F. Rockafellow.
as appeared in your last weeks issue,
seemed to take very serious excep-
tions to what had to say on the pure
water question the week previous. 1
grant we all have an equal right to
our own opinion and to express it
privately or publicly, but in no part
OF his article does he carry out the
sentiment that he expressed in the
first paragraph.
His review of the various expert
ments that have been pursued with the
aim to procure better water for Canon
was, in most instances, correct. The
experiments made in trying to procure
water from the underflow in Grape
Creek and the Arkansas river were
amusing. and showed what little judg-
ment was exercised by the operators
in trying to get water out of bedrock
1t reminds practical man of boyhood
days, when we made cornstalk whirly-
gigs and placed them in the stream.
AS / said in my previous article,
there is no place in either Grape Creek
or the Arkansas river, near here,
where there is an underflow, with the
exception of that part of the Arkansas
which lies above the mouth of Grape
Creek for distance of two or three
miles, and this is not an underfiow-
simply seepage, where filtered river
water could be had. But as gravity
system is desired it puts that locality
practically on the shelf.
He goes on to say, further, that the
Grape Creek source has never been
scarcely considered; that at times
there is barely enough for the ranches
in Wet Mountain Valley and the lands
in Lincoln Park. He was one of the
parties who, fifteen years ago, said
that there was not sufficient supply
for the Wet Mountain Valley, and that
the Park enterprise was absurd and
impracticable. Now that | have made
the Park end of it success 1t seems
there still remains something else to
be done to convince some knockers
that there is surplus water to be had
from that basin. But 1T cannot be OBJ
tanned by inexperienced theorists who
would surely run amuck" of many
obstacles AS for myself, | consider
the source only little Rocky"
] think my dear people understand
that ! am not one of the knockers,
for my individual interests do not re-
quire different water. as the people of
Lincoln Park as well as those in South
Canon have pure mountain water at
ne present time My position is un-
selfish; | simply want to help those
not So fortunate. and | wish it could
be done with no additional burden to
our people.
While in London | ascertained facts
regarding the impurities in the River
Thames, resulting from the sewerage
of London, which is used by the people
below that city, and found that the
water is not as pure as reported. but
that a great deal of hush money has
been put up as there is no other source
form which the people below can pro-
cure water, and / am frank to say that
the Englishmen thrive well on it. The
effects of its use have now become

URGED TO CULTIVATE
THE RED RASPBERRY

Mr.. Turnbull OF the Colorado Can
ming Co.. has just returned from trip
to the Northern part OF the state
where he has been making contracts
with the growers of red raspberries
In that section to mike shipment OF
of this fruit to have them for use in
their factory, and he is very enthusi-
astic over the possibilities OF growing
red raspberries and blackberries in
this locality.
He says that he can see no reason
why they should not be grown with
equally as much success here as they
are there: the conditions are very
similar They have to bury the canes
in the winter time: they have to ir-
rigate, and the altitude being the same,
there is little or no difference in the
climatic conditions.
From the one station OF Loveland
alone. last season they shipped over
10000 crates of red raspberries. and
that section OF the state has not got
anything like the acreage possible for
the growing of this fruit that we have.
nor has 1t equal facilities for getting
a good price for the fruit raised.
The red raspberry crop, following
close on the heels of strawberries as
It does, could be handled to great
advantage In this community and
would be very considerable addi-
tional revenue. 10000 to 10000 crates
of raspberries would bring in that
many dollars. and from the experience
of other communities there can be no
doubt but that the more diversified
the number Of crops we grow. the
better the average returns Will be In
successive years.
We find that number of growers
have grown both red raspberries and
blackberries In small way here with
abundant success.
Mr.. Turnbull states that some red
raspberries on his own place, which
he planted three years ago. looked
equally as good as the Loveland BUSH
es and have the. appearance Of turning
on just as many bevries.
We would suggest that this matter
be taken up by the Horticultural So
ciety here and an effort made 10 in
duce the planting -of this variety Of
fruit more largely. 1t brings good
price and there fs practically an un-
limited market for It. st go. &

Bell and Haskins.

A Washington despatch TO the bos-
ton Herald says:
"The view among VermonterS in
congress now is that Bell will have
another term as governor, and that
both the Vermont members OF the
House will be reelected"
If this is Washington gossip, the
vermonters there had better come
home and see what's going on. The
truth is that there is mighty little
talk of Bell for a second tarm--;t'"
oho last thing a majority OF the folks
are thinking of, and according to his
own statement he will positively de-
cline to run again. He doesn't say,
however, that he is not a candidate
for congress, and some of his enthu-
siastic friends already have Haskina
beaten. Whether there's any choice
between the two men is another
matter; as to that the Vermonters in
Washington might have opinions Of
more positive interest.

VERMoNT's GOOD SHOWING

The rate of increase in manufac-
lures in Vermont as shown by the
last census of manufacturers is %. s
per cent. This is record of which
the state may we'll be proud and one
which as soon as it becomes general
knowledge is sure to turn the ever
wakeful eye Of capital to that section
Of New England to seek for the
cause.
The state Of Vermont shows a
greater percentage Of increase than
any other one of the New England
states thus far reported, among
which are New Hampshire, Con-
necticut and Rhode Island, The
rate of increase is in excess of that
shown by the city of Boston, but the
state of Massachusetts, has not yet
been reported. Reports are in from
q states and but few equal the rec
ord Of Vermont.
The census shows marble and
stone work as the heaviest products,
the next in order being lumber and
wooden goods. Dairy products take
the fifth place and the day has evil
IDENTIFY come when the development
OF the states resources will readjust
lie products in such manner that it
will become known for several pur-
suits other than Its dairying and ma
pie sugar working. The greatest in
grouse is shown in stone and in cot
ton goods.

Civic Pride.

Civic pride seems to be almost the
last feeling to be aroused in the mind
of the average citizen. This feeling
is doubtless latent in nearly every
one, but it takes a severe course of
training and much in the way of OBJ
ject lessons to bring it to the surface.
The good housewife insists on the an
nual spring cleaning as being abso-
lutely necessary, but in many cases
the cleaning stops there. Why should
not the man of the household be as
much interested in clean village,
the place where he gets his living
and in which he consciously or un-
consciously takes pride? Woodstock
has much to be proud of in its nat
ural beauties, but these could be
much improved if the feeling of
civic pride could be stirred little
more in the citizens breast.
Woodstock front yards and lawns
are models of neatness, but it's back
yards, its river banks and its streets
leave much to be desired. The I'M
provement Society has done what it
could to make things better, but this
movement viii not avail unless the
community helps and helps cheer
fully.
Civic pride is matter of Oduca-
tion largely anu none are tho young
to be taught or too old to learn.
The enormous amounts spent
yearly by the great municipalities
show that where the greater the edu-
cation the greater the amounts spent
and the better and moro far-reaching
results. These expenditures would
not be made if the people, the every
day people, did not want them, but
they see and appreciate the advan-
tages of better and cleaner streets
and parks, more Fairgrounds for the
children and more pleasant spots for
themselves and are willing to pay for
them.
And not the least of the advantages
of this awakening of civic pride is
that it is bound to call forth an sp-
probation of the beauties of nature
and these beauties we have all about
US only waiting to be enjoyed and
appreciated.
Woodstock only needs this awak-
ening of civic pride in the individual
and put in practice to make it a
model village. Woodstock is attrac-
tive and pleasure to its residents
and visitors; it can be made gem.
