SOFT WATER IS HERE
Was Turned Into City Mains
Last Saturday

Greeley Is finally enjoying its new
soft water supply and 1T Is good.
The new water was turned into the
city mains last Saturday and by
Sunday morning had reached every
house that is connected with the
mains. 1t will probably he several
days before the pipes and mains are
thoroughly cleansed of the alkali and
other sediment from the old water
supply and until this is done the
water will not have the full purity
expected. There is no doubt about
the softness of the water as can
easily be proved by the use of soap
In the water.
The new water system has not as
yet been accepted from the con-
tractors by the city council, but SO
far as is known to the outside world
there are no difficulties in the way
of q settlement as soon as the system
is in thorough working order. There
are still a few leaks In joints IN the
pipe line but these are being tlght-
ened and are nothing serious.

HEAVY DAMAGE SUIT
Joseph House Wants $40, 200 for
Child's Burns

One of the largest damage suits
ever brought in Weld county was
filed last saturday by Joseph House
against Mrs. Mary c. Hill. the total
amount asked being $40, 200
Damages are sought by Mr.. and
Mrs. House because of alleged burns
received by their infant son who on
Aug Is last walked into some hot
ashes said to have been thrown out
by Mrs. HILL The latter owns the
house near the corner of Seventh
street and Tenth avenue where the
accident to the child occurred and
also lives in the vicinity.
The amount of damage is divided
$4,000 for actual damages, $4,000
for exemplary damages and 5000 for
doctors bill In care of the child. 1t
is claimed that the child may be
permanently crippled.
Mrs. Hill claims not to have been
living in the house at the time the
accident occurred and that the ashes
must therefore have been thrown out
from some other house.

Concreting Big Dam.

The owners of the big Jackson
lake reservoir are spending about
ss5, 900 in cementing the inside face
of the dam. The Jackson lake reser-
voir is one Of the big storage basins
near the boundary line of Weld and
Morgan counties and waters a con-
siderable tract of land in Morgan
county. Some trouble has been ex-
perienced in past years from gophers
and muskrats burrowing in the
dam and causing leakage that some
times threatened the safety of the
farms under the reservoir. 1t was
to elimin all danger of this kind
that the big dam is being concreted.

Sheep Begin to Arrive.

There will probably only be about
100, 900 lambs and sheep on feed IN
the Greeley district this winter, ac'
cordipg to A. A. Howard, the we'll
known feeder The exceedingly high
price of lambs. the high price OF
feed, both corn and hay, and the un-
certainty of the market price next
spring are keeping most OF the
smaller feeders out of the business.
Mr. Howard will feed as usual as
will most of the old feeders but the
small speculators, many OF whom
were burned some last year, Will
keep out. The first stock to arrive
will be bunch for Gill \ Decker,
expected this week. After that
many of the feeders will begin to re-
ceiye shipments.

is four years froH, its original plant
ing. So finely have suagr beets been
developed that it is necessary to re.
peat the process each year, selecting
elite beets. testing, growing mother
beets from the resulting seed The
seed of an ordinary beeI, if re-
planted, would result in a crop of
poor beets and if seed from these
common beets we're again planted
the resulting crop would be almost
worthless. 1t is a constant battle
for the seed growers to keep their
stock up to top notch in sweetness
and Weld. Beet seed will germinate
well even when several years old and
seed growers, because of the uncer-
tainity Of the crop, are compelled to
keep large surplus stock over from
year to year. 1t is not infrequent
for big concern like Deippe Broth
ers. for instance. to carry over as
many as $50, 600 sacks OF seed from
one season to the next.

Cabbage Good Crop.

According to estimates furnished
by l. Rothschild, dealer, and F. H.
Young and other growers Of cabbage
the crop this year will be about the
same as last year in quantity and Of
good quality. There are about 400
acres of cabbage grown in the Gree
ley, Eaton and Ault district, $50
acres of which is being grown in the
vicinity of Greeley. This is a little
less here than last year but in the
total the two other named places
will make up the difference. This
acreage will produce close to 400
carloads, some of which Is already
on the market. Cabbage has been
shipped out of here for the past two
weeks. The price SO far has been rs
cents hundred, which means an in
come of about $3.50 an acre.
Practically all the cabbage from
this section is shipped to Texas,
where they grow little or nothing Of
this kind except early cabbage which
has been used up long ago.
For time 1t looked as though the
plant lice were going to cut down
the cabbage yield materially, but
later Developments. proved the fears
more or less groundless.

carefully cutting out all other sprouts
that may start.
The seed from the elite beets is

and tne bags into tireproof vaults,
each type and each family separate,
ana tne vaults locked, sealed and
guarded by every known precaution
against pilfering or tampering with

this elite seed is planted, cultivated
aud coddled as before and from this
seed comes the crop of Mother"
beets, which in their turn are carried
over winter and planted out again
next spring to throw up seed stalks
and raise the seed of commerce. AS
soon as seed stalks appear on the
mother beets stout stake is driven
alongside of each and a strong wire
netting thrown over 1t, to protect
the blossoms from Insects. hail or
