Beet Situation.

The deadlock on the price of next
years beet crop remains the same as
last week in the western part of the
valley. The farmers of Otero coun-
try where the farms are cut up into
small tracts are greatly excited, and
hold almost daily meetings. An at
tempt is being made to get capital
interested in an Independent factory,
but that Is impossible at this time
with the present market situation and
the presidential election coming on.
In Prowers county, however, the sit
ustion is entirely different. The
farmers here own real farms, and can
raise any one of dozen crops that
are profitable and much less work
attached than raising beets. They
were getting somewhat tired of the
hard labor connected with the indus
try and only their signed cont racts
were holding them to the indrustry.
They are already blowing up their
beet ground for alfalfa and wheat,
and most of them seem relieved to
get back to those old staple and re-
liable crops. The man with 100
acre farm is independent and don't
have to raise any crop unless he
wishes. New farmers are crowding
into this county every day, bat the
acreage under irrigation Is so large
all can be provided for, aud still ave
the big profitable farms for which
the county is noted.

s,oun.. Defiance wheat.


A four-ounoe bottle Of pedigreed
Defiance wheat which Professor A. E.
Blount has grown in his wheat nur-
sery, WIS found at the Colorado Ex-
pertinent Station in 1908. As nearly
as it could be determined, this wheat
had been grown twelve years before.
The entire bottle full of wheat was
seeded. Three kernels grew, one
throwing up fourteen spikes of wheat
This most desirable plant was allow
ed to mature seed, and the others
we're destroyed.
From this plant, seeded in 1903,
the Station has carefully developed
several hundred bushels Of choice
seed wheat, the direct progeny OF one
kernel Of Defiance wheat. The Sta
ton has planned to distribute this
wheat to the farmers of Colorado who
are growing a spring wheat, under
the ditch" in amounts not to exceed
100 pounds per farmer, at three cents
apound.
This is far below the cost of pro-
dusinQ this wheat, since it has re
quired constant care and attention to
maintain IL absolutely pure.
Farmers who will SOW this seed on
clean, well-prepared seed bed,
should have enough pure, clean wheat
to seed the general field next year
and should use It to the exclusion OF
all other seed in 1909 With each
sack is sent a pedigree OF the wheat
registered with the Secretary of the
Colorado Grain & Seed Growers
Association, F. Knorr.

Colorado For Tho Farmer.

Probably there has never been
winter during which so many farmers
from eastern states have sought and
made homes in Colorado.
Every week during the last three
months there have been from one to
q dozen men who have made up
their minds to cast their lot in the
Centennial state and to gain good
living, if not wealth, from its fertile
soil.
There it a great deal of land avail
able in this state. Some OF it IS al
ready irrigated and good deal OF II
is about ready for the water. Num-
.erous irrigation projects are unde'
way in various parts of the state, ane
the land is being sold to the farmers
with the understanding that wate
will be available when necessary.
There is lively interest upon th'
western slope, at Glenwood, Grane
junction, and at Montrose ahd Pao

large enterprises in the Arkansas val
