A number of whopper stories are
told each year anent the largest pro-
duction and revenue for q given
number of acres in the Greeley dis
trict until the veracity OF these
statements become second only TO
the tale of the fish.
However, N. E. Cazer, who lives
six miles west of Eaton, has all the
receipts to back up his story. He
probably holds the record for the
revenue produced from any forty
acres in Weld county The entire
forty was in potatoes and the yield
was heavy, running over 200 sacks.
He was short on help and was no.
able to haul any to market from the
field. He stored them all in two
immense dugouts and sorted them
at his leisure.
Cold weather and bad roads pra-
vented him from getting single
potato on the market until the price
had gone up to 81 per hundred. H.
hauled the last of his 5000 sacks
last week receiving $1.65.
His warehouse receipts show tn Al
he received for the whole crop a
little more than $4,000 which is
probably the greatest revenue ever
obtained from forty acres of ground

The frequency of fires at the stock
wards from the same cause is the
reason for the petition which WAS

On account of the railroad con
struction work in this vicinity the
