RICHEST COUNTRY IN WORLD
If Ditch Rights and irrigation IS
Taken Advantage Of BY
The People

"The Arkansas Valley 10 Ford county
and the Kansas counties from here Yves

agricultural district In the world"
This statement was made here on las,
Saturday By Ar. 8. 8. Ashbaugh to th'
Commercial Club and Citisens. Mr.
Asbbsugh has spent two years tim'
studying this territory. A ono Of th'
astomsys 10 ,ht Kansas. Colorado suit h

Colorado has poor soil that BY utilizing
the water for irrigation the valley 10
Colorado 10 becoming world famed, while
the valley land in Kansas, which should
bp worth double the price Of the Colo
RADIO land, 10 still being neglected and Ia
selling At a. cheap figure.
Mr.. Ashbaugh attaches great import-
ance to the early establishment of the
S0ule, and other bitches in this par Of
the country. He is confident that Kansas
will win This water suit, He is confident
that the Uuited States will see that The
bitches first established along THE Ark
ansas river shall haye the first right TO
the water There are over 1885, 900 acres
OF land under the bitches In this part OF
the country. As soon as this land can be
s7rrigarcti once or twice during the season
at critical tunes, 1t will be worth from
$2O.OO0,OO0 to $40, 900 900, and there will
be an annual income from 1t In crops
which may run from 100000 to
el5 5,000,O 900.
A great many of the facts given BY Mr..
Ashbaugh In his speech TO the CONNER
cial club Saturday have been stated from
time to time in the Globe Republican 10
the past ak months. They were empha
sized. however by Mr.. Ashbaugh In way
which can not fail TO carry greater
weight. Mr.. Ashbaugh's figures on lLnd
'talues, assessed valuations etc., 10 the
)&SuntIes that arc now under irrigation
can not be set aside a. newspaper talk"
or s'attorney" talk. He bias the sworn
tsstimony Of the men who own the land,
thp men who cultivate and the county
officers for all his figures.
Mr.. Ashbsugh advised the Commercial
Club to keep an active committee at work
on irrigation, to get all information OBJ.
tainable, to keep the outcome Of the
Kansas Colorado snit 10 sight, to learn
the exact facts regarding the title and
co0dition Of the old dltehes and to work
for the greatest future that any country
ever had In prospect.

was a reception followed by musicale,
at which Nine. Emma Games sang. To
sing before the King is an honor to
which few people attain and one which
was greatly appreciated by the gifted
singer.

An Accomplished Mule.

The author of VERY Far West In
deed has many amusing stories to tell
of his adventures on the Fraser River
at the time of the gold excitement in
British Columbia, now nearly forty
wears ago. He was making his way
through the mountains in company with
an Irishman when this occurred:
Two or three miles from the ferry we
looked about for a suitable spot on
which to camp for the night; and while
thus engaged. Pat Herman and l. with
one of the laden mules, fell behind. Pat
was twenty or thirty yards ahead of
me, and I was urging on the tagging
mule with gentle entreaties. Finding
these unavailing, adopted more vio-
lent expedient, and threw stone at
him. The stone-it was a good-sized
one-missed the mule, but hit Pat in
the back
With many EXPLANATIONS of rage Pat
descended from his perch, and proceed
ed to lick the mule. Hardly able to
keep from laughing aloud, inquired:
whats the matter, Pat?"
"Matther enough. Here's this ould
black haste, not continued wild thrying
to upsit me iv'ry mint, has been and
trun rock and hit me square in the
middle of me back"
