Lost Park Company organizes.

Greeley. Colo-The Antero & Lost
Park Reservoir Company was incor-
porated. capitalized at $2,OOO,O00. 1t
is composed of thirty-three business
men, nineteen from Greeley and the
remainder from Denver. and their
project is the building Of the Antero
and Lost Park reservoirs in South
Park. 100 miles southwest of Denver.
by which $4,000 acres of land. much
OF 1t adjoining Denver and some
within the city limits, and extending
to the mouth Of the Poudre, is to be
provided with water for late irriga-
ton.
The reservoir site. which was pur-
chased three weeks ago, covers 1O,-
900 acres and the South Platte river
runs through the Antero basin. To-
night it was decided to send survey
ors to South Park next week.
A dam 1000 feet long, 35 feet high,
covered with cement and costing
$250,000. will be built for the Antero
reservoir. The two reservoirs of 3D.
200 100000 cubic feet capacity will be
supplied from the South Platte and its
tributaries. Ten miles of ditch with a
ther supply the reservoir from the
north fork of the South Platte. Four
Mile creek and High creek. The res
ervoir draws from 500 square miles of
land with the reputed best snowfall in
the state and its waters are practically
unlimited. The company may provide
water for the high line ditch, the Full
ton, the Burlington and Evans No. 2

to Greeley.
For the last week Greeley parties
have been buying land east of Den

other parts Of the state a. In the Ar
kansas valley. and the acreage in me3-
ons will be materially increased next
year.
When one comes to consider the re-
turns made this year ON the fruit or
chards of the western slope the fig-
ures are even more astounding. No
wonder that Missouri threw up her
hands In despair when she gaxed on
the product Of the Colorado orchards
of the western slope and without more
ado awarded the state a first grand
premium on its display. thing never
before done In the history OF the state.
Practically the only fruit grown in the
state this year has been on the west
ern slope. Orchards In other sections
were put out OF business by the late
frosts.
J. F. Moore, manager Of the Grand
Junction Fruit Growers association,
gave me some interesting data over
the phone yesterday. Up to date there
have been shipped from Grand juno
ton alone 470 cars Of fruit.
Shipments during the week Just
ended averaged sixteen cars q day.
Twenty-Five cars went out last night.
The average returns on these cars, fig
ured at low estimate, is placed at
81 200 a car Little Paonia will ship
about seventy-f1ve cars of apples this
fall These will net $1,000 car. Re-
turns from other fruit-shipping points
are not yet in hand.
1t Is probable that before the sea-
son has closed not less than 1000 cars
and probably nearer 1.500. will have
gone out Of Grand Junction. The re-
turns from 103 carloads of Bartlett
pears netted the growers $132,257.
Fourteen cars Of pears shipped within
three days from Grand Junction net
ted $23,874. or $1,705 per car. Is it
any wonder. then, that land Is going
up by leaps and bounds in that sec
ton Of the state? The only wonder is
that land is as cheap as 1t is.
In all of the irrigated districts of
the state, the harvests. all crops con-
sidered. break the records for quality
and quantity. Take Weld county as a
fair example. Farmers will average
from $50 to $50 per acre clear on all
crops grown this year If present signs
do not fail. Fifty cars of potatoes a
day are leaving the Greeley district
and this number would be largely in
creased IL the cars were to be had.
Growers are receiving sixty-five cents
per hundredweight for the potatoes.
A low estimate is 100 sacks to the
acre. Ten thousand carloads of pota-
toes will be shipped from the district
alone during the year.
Never before in northern Colorado
have wheat, oats and barley yielded
SO heavily or tested so well as this
year. Alfalfa has done exceptionally
well. Vegetables and berries were
good crop. Taken all together, the
year has been Colorado's best. And
that Is saying all that can be said.
Five years ago there were not 25,-
900 acres of land under cultivation in
the so-called semi-arid belt of eastern
Colorado. This year the acreage is
about 100000, and exceptionally
good crops without irrigation have
been raised. Think of the Increase
from $4,000 to 100000 in FIVE years.
Isn't Colorado growing, and grow
ing wonderfully?
No man may dare predict what its
future will be.
Should any man lie ashamed to say
he lives in Colorado?
Rather should ne not be proud of
the fact that he lives in such an
abundantly blessed state?

Nance. They often have phenomenal
memories which are developed at the
expense of all other mental faculties.
They are not physically strong enough
for any sustained effort. and after a
brilliant childhood they exhaust them
selves and become commonplace.
These children should be made to lead
physical lives. every effort being d.
rected to form good constitution. A
country life is almost necessity in
their case. and the mental develop
ment should be made as gradual as
possible.
