Snow For Poultry.

The possibility of lessening the labor

Suoar Beet Lands.

Every observing man must nave no-
ticed that the advent of the sugar III
dustry in Colorado has surely nau "n
efferyescing effect on land values, ana
this is one of the most satisfactory lea
tures arising from the business. we
have seen land advance in price from
$40 or $50 to 5000 and $500 an acre.
but we must imagine that the latter
fnure is about the limit when the
earning capacity of farm Is oaseu
n, IFS percentage Of earning from ah-
nual crops. The effect of beet culture
hos been to bring down the average
size of the farms to twenty or tnlrty
,cres Int of course we still have many
of 100 and 300 in extent. AS intensive
farming is the rule, however, the OF
dinary grower finds twenty or tnl:ty
acres about all he can manage WneL
put in beets, dependent, as he Is upon
tbe uncertainties of such labor as may
straw along. Another salutary enec,
has been the improvement In cultura
methods. and this is shown tentalNei!
In all other crops, says Denver flel.

as fertilizer to beet lands has PROVED

Blackberries, raspberrsSs. grapes cur
