JOHN EMERSON VISITS
IN NORTHERN COLORADO

Colorado is known far and wide as
a great mineral producing state. In
Canon City we also know that for fine
apples and other fruits it cannot be
excelled. But when we are told that
the gold and the silver and the fruit
are but comparatively small matters
when placed alongside the agricultural
and live stock interests of Colorado
we can hardly credit the statement.
A ride on the Colorado & Southern
railroad from Denver to Fort Collins,
however, would go far toward making
one appreciate the truthfulness of the
statement.
The distance is "a miles and almost
every foot of the land from the base
of the mountains on the west to as far
as the eye can see from the car win
dow on the east is under a high state
Of cultivation.
The country is most beautiful and
reminds one very much of some of
the counties of northern Illinois, roll
ing just enough to give diversity to
the landscape. There are thousands
of acres of oats and wheat in the
shock and large areas devoted to the
culture of sugar beets. They tell me
that there are not less than eleven
thousand acres now planted to sugar
beets in the Fort Collins district alone
The average yield per acre is said to
be IA 1-3 tons which at $500 per ton
makes a gross income per acre OF
$71.66. The cost of growing an acre
of beets ranges from $35 to $40 per
which nat In
line to the grower of $34.16.
Last year they say that 100000
were paid to the growers for that crop
here.
The beet sugar plant here has a ca
pacity of / 200 tons daily.
Lamb feeding is also a profitable in
dustry here. From 100000 to 500, 1000
lambs are fed during the winter on al
falfa and grain and in the early spring
sold in the markets of Omaha, st. JOS
eph, Kansas City, Chicago and other
cities returning to the feeders from one
to two million dollars. Farm lands
are worth from SIS to 5000 per acre
according to location.
Ft. Collins with its immediate en-
virons claims a population Of 10,5O0
but that estimate looks to me little
large for it doesn't seem to be any
larger than that of Canon City and
South Canon combined.
Several large business blocks are
under construction as we'll as a sec, 900
Y. M. C. A. building.
In many respects Ft. Collins will not
compare favorably with Canon City.
They have no such abundance OF shade
trees lining the streets as we have
nor have they anything like the amount
Cañon City record., 1907-08-22

of nice cement sidewalks that we have
nor do believe that the average beau
ty and neatness of the homes and
premises will equal those of our own
town.
A popularity Of the town is the
large number of triangular shaped
blocks in the business section and
consequent V-shaped buildings on the
corners. You start to walk down a
block turn two corners and find your
self on the same street you started
from The effect of this is often sur
prising if not startling until you recog-
niZe the cause.
The Grand Lodge Knights of Pythias
which is in session here at this time
numbers IS lodges situated in nearly
every town of any Importance in the
state and from which there are present
nearly 200 representatives. The Grand
Lodge of Pythian Sisters are also in
session and the uniform rank X. of
P. are encamped on the beautiful
grounds of the State Agricultural COL
lege.
While the uniform rank boys were
coming here the other day an incident
occurred which may yet cause some
body some trouble. The strike on the
C. & S. was on and the boys are &C
cused of forcibly ejecting two nom
union brakemen from the train. Con-
sequently when We asked for a spec
| ial train to take us back to Denver
the railroad very emphatically turned
down the request. The incident Is de-
~I~ tn nd
investigation has been begun by the
lodge to ascertain the facts in the case.
After seeing the quarters of FIT. Col
Inns post office l was certainly proud
of our own beautiful, cool and con-
venient quarters. Their floor space
does not seem to cover more than one
third that of ours and their lobby and
working departments are dingy,
crowded and cramped. How they can
accommodate the public on Sundays
and holidays Is a mystery. In fact,
from what I am told, they do not ac-
commodate them for man said today
that on Sundays it was impossible to
even get inside the building without
waiting long time. After six O'Clock
in the evening the windows are all
closed and you can neither get your
mail nor buy a stamp. Young ladies
seem to predominate in the general
delivery, stamp and registry depart
ments.
Ft. Collins has an abundance Of fine,
clear, mountain water. They bring
it from a source at the foot of the
mountains forty miles away.
They have good DaDers here but
none of them will compare in appear
ance and reading matter with the Daily

SERIOUS RUNAWAY ON
LINCOLN PARK TUESDAY

Glynton Hall, who drives the deliv-
cry wagon for his fathers store at
Lincoln Park, played a leading role In
runaway Tuesday afternoon. His
horse took fright, and, despite the ef-
forts of the driver to control him, ran
away. The wagon was reduced to
a mass OF kindling wood and scrap
iron and young Hall more or less
bruised In consequence Of being
thrown out in the most unceremonious
fashion. Young Hall seems to be
peculiarly unfortunate in this respect
and has only recently recovered from
the effects of a runaway OF a month or
six weeks ago.
