Among the potatoc growing sec
tions of the west, Greeley Colo.
has long been noted, both for the
excellence of product and prolific
yield. From a seemingly barren
plain, with the aid of lifc-giving
water, the Colorado community
has been developed into one of the
most thriving of that states agri-
cultural sections, having for its
chief crop the Irish tuber which has
such an important place on the
daily bill of fare. AZ Greedy po-
tatoc raising with the aid of irri-
cation has reach cd stage where
there is little m ore to be desired,
and the output has reached trc-
mcndous propo rtions.
Secure as Greley's fame may
seem to be, worthy competitor
has enterted the lists. Greeley
cannot longer claim to be the whole
thing in the potatoe growing in
dustry. 1t the great Snake river
valley of Southern Idaho it has a
worthy rival, and as time rolls on
and the desert is subjugatcd by
the floods of stored mountain
streams, it will be found that this
section has become one of the great
potatoe growing sections of the
United States.
Here is found the soil that is best
suited to the production of the po-
tatoc, and it must be conceded that
by the use of water intelligcntly
applied, conditions may be created
exactly, filling the requirements for
the growth of this crop.
1t has been the mistake of many
to apply too much water to the
growing crop, in fact, some we'll
meaning growers, being new to
irrigation methods, have drowned
their crops, or by neglecting to
cultivate, have allowed the soil to
bake under the rays of Idaho's
continuous sunshine
The potatoe grower should re-
member that cultivation must fol-
low irrigation and is fully as inn
portant. 1t is not so we'll kno yvn
as it ought to be that air is fully as
important as water and sunshine to
the needs of the roots of a growing
plant. To deprive the plant of any

Fernstrom declared that the Federal

MED by Mr.. Wrench, who said that
every action he had taken in the mat

several members OF the city council.

he also objected TO outhouses and
coal sheds being built on the lots
which abut the campus. Ne was as
surod by the representatives Of the
addition that such would not be the
condition for the reason that every
deed has restrictions as to buildings
which make such things impossible.
MARTIN ENTHUSIASTIC.
Martin was heartily in favor Of the

time a proposition OF such magnitude
had ever been presented TO the city
council. and II had evidently taken some
of the members on Of their feet, and
they had not landed yet. There was
"a proposition IN which the sidewalks,
sewers, Watermains. curbing, gutterlng

the city paying one cent and no other
person or company had ever before OF
tered 20 do such a thing. He insist

MARKETS.
PREDICTS A BETTERMENT.
CLEWS THINKS CORPORATIONS
WILL BE BETTER MANAGED.
Agitation Now on to Prove Bene-
ficiaI-A Reaction in the
Market.
(By Henry Clews-)

New York May 27.-The market has
undergone another reaction, winch
brought many prices down TO about the
level of the March panic. There were
various influences at work contrlbut-
ing to this result. In the first place,
some very important speculative &C
counts which have been hanging over
the market for the last two months
have been in process of liquidation,
and discovery of this fact gave the
bears an opportunity for renewed on
sIaughts The rather severe govern
ment report on Standard Oil also tend
ed to unsettle values, inasmuch as it
induced irritation and timidity in i'm
portant financial circles. There is no
denying the fact that the general hos
tility of public opinion towards corpo-
rations has deterrent effect upon new
enterprises. and causes more or less
cautiousness on the part of capital. 1t
is quite true that many of the criti-
cisms aimed at corporations have been
merited and that much of the oppoSi-
ton towards them has worn the APP
pearance of public hysteria. Neyerthe-
less, the latter phase will in due sea
son pass off and our corporations will
be more honestly and more fairly
managed: so the ultimate result should
be satisfactory to the public and stock
holders alike.
