One Of the Idaho Springs contempor-.
aries comments last week on the fact
that the Teller house is closed down on
account of lack of patronage ard thereby
gets its little hammer out. However,
for the benefit of our misinformed bro
ther across the hill, We will say that the
Teller house was not closed down for
any such like reason, but simply through
bad management. OF course we realize
that Idaho Springs would be benefited
if such first class hotel could be trans
planted in their midst but do not expect
to part with it at this or any other time
in the future, as there is more need for
it in this city than across the hills to the

Farmers are Beginning to Awaken
to the Fact and Many bitches
are Being Tilsd.

Land in Marion county is becom-
ing so valuable flat farmers arc
having practicallv all of the open
bitches tiled so as to- prevent any
land going to waste.
"The majority OF bitches now be-
ing constructed are old bitches which
are being tiled," states County
Surveyor Edward S. .SAult.
1t is said that in all counties
when the land reached certain
valuation, say 800 an acre OF
thereabouts, the farmers begin to
tile their open bitches. This is the
ease in Marion county, where there
are many open bitches which must
be closed so that the hand may be
redeemed.
"A ditch of two miles or so ii
length when allowed to remain oper
will take up no small amount of val
liable land. When closed and tiled
this Land is redeemed for use.
