LOSE TO Fl. COLLINS
Absence of Mccreery FronyGame
Proves Disastrous

Greeley football fans were treated
to an unpleasant surprise at Meeker
field Saturday afternoon. Fort COL
Inns was here for a game Long
mont had defeated Fort Collins and
Greeley had no trouble winning from
Longmont so victory was expected
for Greeley. Dean McCreery was out
of the game with a stiff knee.
Without him the team is like an en-
gine without steam. Hamnett, the
most versatile player in the Greeley
squad, went in at quarterback in
McCreery's place and for new man
in the place did good work. The
boys lacked ginger while Fort Collins
had big crowd of rooters and were
out to win.
The visitors kicked off to Greeley
who got the ball into Collins terri
tory and kept it there for most of
the half. With eight minutes of
the half left a long punt took the
ball into Greeley's territory where on
tumble it was recovered by Collins
on Greeley's 35-yard line. BY the
use of tandem formation the ball
was pushed over for the first touch
down. The goal kick failed. leaving
the score 5 to 0. The rest of the
half was unimportant.
In the second half Greeley got
within 30 yadrs of Collins goal but
lost the ball on downs. About the
middle Of the last half Greeley
punted to Fort Collins and Wallace,
quarterback, made so yard run for
touchdown. The goal kick was
good, making the score II to 0. The
game ended with the ball in Gree
ley's territory.
Fort Collins made most of her
gains by line smashing, her back
held being exceptionally strong. Att
running back punts Wallace was a
wonder. Newton for Greeley played
strong game.
Greeley plays Collins again this
season and with McCreery back in
the game should have no trouble in
turning the tables.

enable them to give the country an
other trial. The petitions then
made are suggestive at the Or esent
time, and as the law hath IL, are
sufficient to now put proposed Sc llers
and buyers OF these lands upon their
inquiry.
These petitions for relief con-
tained, in part. the following.
I'VE as settlers of eastern Colo
RADIO have failed to raise q crop Iast
year, and only about half a crop TWO
years ago. We pray that your hon
orable body may make said appro-
priation so that we may make final
test of this country; we have spent
our money here In impoving tue
land, and if We are forced to leave
our homes, would be pennies: we
were brought Tito this country by
your appropriation made for adver-
tising this country: Therefore we
sincerely pray that you make said
appropriation for us to make one
more trial Of this country"
Dry Farming Tried Out.
The petition was heard, the appro-
priation was granted, and the one
more trial. made to conquer the de-
sert: but it was the last attempt
made by those communities OF pio-
neers, composed mainly of as good,
hopeful and industrious people as
ever crossed our borders or tried to
build homes in our state. But they
could not accomplish the impossible.
From 1891 to 1893 they mortgaged or
abandoned their lands and went to
other parts of the state or left it al
together never to return, penniless.
as they had themselves predicted.
The lands so settled, proved up,
mortgaged and abandoned, from 1895
for ten years, became the sport of
tax sales, and these sales having now
ripened into perfect titles" :" furnish

| tempt to reclaim the lands on the
part of real homeseekers, who are
lured to this dry and barren land by
the glowing pictures of bountiful
crops, sent everywhere by the always
optimistic land agent, at least once
each generation.
From all this it appears that the
experiment of redeemtng the arid
lands of Colorado to agriculture
without irrigation by settlers will
end as the similar attempt made
twenty years ago ended, in failure of
the experiment and in disappoint-
ment and disaster to the men and
women who devote the best years of
their lives to the arduous toll and
the alternate hopes and fears Of the
attempt.
