INSPECTED MILK
SUPPLY OF CITY
PURE FOOD COMMISSION HERE
Council to Take Up Matter When Re
port is Made

Two members of the state pure
food commission, q memrer of .he
state board of health, a veterinary
from the state agricultural college.
and Mayor Houston of Greeley have
Just completed an inspection OF all
the dairies in this vicinity.
The inspectors will make their re-
port to their respective departments.
which will in due time be given to
the public
The inspection included the QW:s-
ity of feed, conditions of stables, Of
COWS, of milk house and the like.
but there was no effert to determine
the health of the animals. 1t re-
quires many visits and several days
to discover tuberculosis in COW
and the state has no appropriation
or law for this purpose, and any ac-
ton along this line must be instf
,uted by the local authorities.
The mayor has no comment to
make upon the conditions found
while on the trip, but as soon as the
council wade through the accumu-
lated business now on hand there
will probably be a special meeting
to discuss the milk supply of the
city of Greeley.

Will Establish Proper Equities in
Water Districts I and 2

Judge Garrigues of the district
court has appointed Ex-Judge Chris
tian Bennett of Boulder as referee u
take testimony and report a decree
of priority for bitches and reservoirs
in irrigation districts Nos. and z.
Since the adjudication of water
rights in these two districts was en-
tered and classified many years ago
many new bitches and all storage res
ervoirS have been constructed ana
the present adjudication is to estab-
lish the relative prorities among
these new bitches and reservoirs.
The former. and in fact the only
general. adjudication ever establish
ed in these two districts was refereed
before the late Judge Victor A. Ell
liott. who might be termed the rather
of irrigation laws in Colorado, ana
those old priorities were established
IN the early SOS, when the only Wa''
er diverted for irrigation purposes
was by bitches direct from the
streams. since which time all the
great storage reservoirs have oeeh
constructed, and except for few oe-
crees between certain of the reser-
voirs. no general adjudication OF PR
critics has been made since the 'ithe
of Judge Elliott.
This contemplated adjudication
comprises the adjustment of prlorl-
ties on all territory watered by the
Cache Ia Poudre and practically an
Of the South Platte river from the
month Of the Poudre to the Washlns-
ton county line near Sterling heSe
two districts also include the lahus
waterad by the tributaries of these
two streams which extend INTO III
hert and Lincoln counties Among
rbess streams are the Bijou, Lone
rrsp. Crow Creek, Big and Ll'''o
Re1vars and many others.
The establishment of the proper
and Iagal equities among the many
rosaryoirs and new bitches Will med"
much 10 the farmers under tno9,
.nrnjaafs. as well as the corpora''onS
in control. 1t may change the Wy

WANT VARSITY
AT LITTLE ROCK

Little Rock, Dec 2.-It was learned
this morning that an organized effort
is being made throughout the state by
those in charge of the movement to
remove the university from Fayette
vile to Little Rock, the object being to
secure delegates favorable to the
scheme who will compose the next
Democratic state convention. If the
forces favorable to the removal of the
university control the next convention,
it is believed that a plank will be in
serted in the platform asking the leg
islature to pass the necessary bills,
providing Little Rock will raise funds
sufficient to reimburse Washington
county for the money it expended in
securing the school for that place
many years ago. The last senate pass
ed a bill removing the university to
this city, providing the citizens of Lit
tie Rock will pay Washington county
and Fayetteville the money they paid
in securing the school. The bill was
killed in the house.

ENGINEERS FAVOR
DRILLING WELLS

Deep wells as a source of supply for
the Conway waterworks system are
favored by all of the engineers who
have expressed an opinion on the sub
ject, and it is very probable that be
fore taking any steps toward the con
struction of the plant the board of
commissioners will endeavor to secure
water in this way. They will be able,
they think, to make a contract where
by sufficient flow of water from wells
can be guaranteed. the drilling to cost
the district nothing if the required
amount of water is not secured.
Several engineers from distant cit
les have been conferring with the COM
missioners during the past few days,
but no one has as yet been selected to
supervise the installation of the wa
terworks system. Those who have
come to Conway and looked over the
situation are all in favor of using
wells if possible. They are also of
the opinion that the funds available
for the construction of the system
will be ample to supply practically all
of the city with water if it is not
found necessary to pipe it from
great distance Most of them also ia
vor the use of elevated tanks to obtain
pressure, rather than the oldfashion-
ed standpipe. They say the tanks are
being used in nine out of ten of the
plants constructed in recent years.

RECEIPTS SHOW
CROP SHORTAGE

A heavy decline in receipts of cot
ton at this place, in the face of prices
around the 14-cent mark, is causing
local cotton men to believe that the
early estimates of crop shortage in
this county were not exaggerated.
During the week ending yesterday
onlyy 4S5 bales were brought here, as
compared with 1855 the same week
year ago, when the price was only 812
cents. At the opening of the season
predictions that the county's crop
would not exceed so per cent of last
year were general, but the rapidity
with which it was marketed for few
weeks led most of the cotton men to
raise their estimates. But the start
ling manner in which the receipts are
falling off indicates early forecasts
of the crop were not far from wrong.
