A Fine Rerervolr.

An interesting piece of reservoir
construction is now in progress on
the north fork of the Poudre river,
about thirty-nve miles northwest Of
Fort Collins. 1t is to be known as
the Halligan reservoir and is being
constructed by the North Poudre
Irrigation company. Where it diff
fers frotu any Of the other reservoirs
Of northern Colorado is in the fact
that the dam is being built across a
rocky canyon, and will be largely of
masonry.
The dam is being built at the up
per end Of canyon eleven miles
long, back of which is a fine valley
spread out The reservoir can be
made to hold close to 1000, 900. 600
cubic feet of water, but at present 1T
will be made to hold only l40, 600, 900.
The work will he left in such condi-
tion, however, that the increase in
capacity can be made without losing
any of the benefit of the present
work

even If Mr.. Camtield hadn't stated
personally that the work was being

sidering the winter weather;
Five gangs are at work Oh differ
ent parts of the irrigation system of

son of l90s may be said to be fairly
begun. These gangs have taken
their contracts direct from the En-
piIe Construction Co., which is pay
ing Its bills promptly in cash AS
we have before stated this district is
fortunate in having its construction
work in the hands of this reliable
firm, whose sound financial response
bility enables them tc weather this
financial storm. firm of less
financial strength would not have
been able to complete this system
under the difficulties that have been
encountered and SO successfully met. :"

Union Ditch Extension.

A survey for the extension OF the
Union ditch into the Box elder
country was made last week by En-
gineer G. D. Page, for a party or
Greeley and kersey men who are
talking of organizing company TO
extend that ditch about twenty
miles. The cost Is said TO be light,
and it will bring under cultivation
something like 1000 acres of new
land south OF kersey
The Union ditch and reservoir has
plenty of water to supply such a
ditch, and it is probable that the
ditch will be constructed this COM
ing summer.

Talk Versus Facts.

Talk has it that the teacher OF the
Beebe Draw school goes home to his
family near Gilcrest, goes in where
his children have scarlet fever and
back to school again as though he
was guilty of nothing wrong; that
he also stayed at neighbours, carry
ing the contagion there. resulting in
the death of their five year old girl
These are grave charges, worthy of
severe penalties. and If that teacher
is guilty he should not be spared.
therefore, move that if talk prove
to be facts, said teacher be given
his just rewards; and, Furthermore,
l hereby obligate myself to bring
said teacher before the proper au-
thorities when evidence sufficient
to make talk facts shall have been
collected
However. until this is done, 1
move that talk stop, that all may
have a conscience as clear as that of

TO PLANT TOMATOES
Million and Half to be Planted
Here.

An enterprise that will be watched
with great interest this coming
spring will be the planting and care
of /, 500. 900 young tomato plants that
will be set out for the Empson Pack
ing company in this vicinity. Frank
Young. the we'll known gardner, has
the contract for handling this indus
try.
The plants will be grown in hot
beds at Longmont and then brought
to the Young gardens, northwest oil
the cit, and set out on an eight acre
tract. There will be plants enough
here for 600 acres Of tomatoes when
finally planted In the fields. The
plants will be brought here and set
out to harden in the garden before
planting In the fields.
Something OF an idea of the size
OF MIR. Youngs contract may be had
when it is known that the eight
acres of plants will have to be COW
cred with canvas every evening and
this again removed next morning,
This Is done to protect the tender
plants against possible frosts, and
still to let them have the sunlight
in the day time.
All the pea acreage for the can
ming factory has been subscribed,
and nearly all of the cabbage and
tomato acreage signed for. The
company now has contracts for a
little over 900 acres of peas for the
first seasons run of the factory.
