coLoRADo's ANNIVERSARY.

DENVER, Colo, May 7.-Fifty years ago today occurred an event that win ever live in the history of Colorado and the west It was on May ', 1859. that the development of the first paying deposits of gold in the Rocky mountains was begun. On ly a few weeks previously the first recorded discovery of gold in this re- zion had been made by George H. Jackson, near the present site of Ida ho Springs. Then, on May 6. 1859. came the memorable discovery of John H. Gregory, Georgia miner. in the district of Clear Creek, not very far from Idaho. while he was bound overland to the Fraser river diggings in British Columbia. It was Greg ory's find that caused the first stam. pede of gold-seekers from Denver and the news spread back to the east and then began the "Pike's Peak or Bust" migration. which caused once more the great overland trail to bios som with the life that characterized the California stampede in '49. But before the discovery of Gregory was reported a number of Denver and Chicago people, acting on the infor- nation furnished by Jackson in regard to his gold find at Idaho Springs. had formed the Chicago Min. ing company. On May '. 1859. one day after the Pike's Peak find. this concern began the development of the first paying deposits of gold in the Rocky mountains.

SUN EDITOR GAN QUOTE THREE
 WEEKS'

The esteemed New York Sun has once more turned the vitrol of it's sarcasm upon the territories. And, this time its theme is the social life of Arizona. Coming as it does from Harry Thaw's best town" and the only city where a dancer has done the Salome stunt plumb naked the esteemed Suns contribution is thought worthy of some attention by the Tue son Star, which says.
 To begin with it bases its strict ures on Arizona society upon newspa- per clippings sent from the agricul- tural community of Mesa to the Sun. One clippings reads: MT. Spencer, the famous director of dances, is off ciating behind the bar for Mir. Neeld at Ray" Another clipping tells of all the eggs at party being sucked by the guests, and another is an "ad offering to trade some copper stock for a bungalow, which excites the Sun to homeric laughter. And final ly to describe social conditions in Arizona this eminent eastern authoTi- ty quotes the booze advertisements Of a John Eyrick at Mesa and com ments: "The citizens of Arizona seem to be persons of capacity. Their en- vironment makes for the develop ment of individuality. Good men in good country Probably Mir. John Eyrick prospers with them"
 Oh. glorious editorI Oh, noble scribe, Oh, burning critic! Likely in your splendid and Gothamesque su- periority you have sat at the table with a monkey and squeezed hands with Harry Lehr. Probably you wear a bracelet on your ankle and cuffs on your pants. We bet TettraZini makes you tired, that Mary Garden is the whole works. and that you can quote entire paragraphs from Three Weeks" 'The Firing Line" or "A Little Brother of the Rich" and The Great White Way" An, yes-there's another point of your superiority the heavy air, the thick perfumes, the music, the smoke. the laughter, the flesh,

It had been demonstrated by few
farmers that partly grown barley,
when plowed under before planting po-
tatoes, produces real results. The re-
suit in potatoes is said to be almost a
100 per cent. increase In production.
Now the beet men are figuring on
the barley experiment working as well
with the beet crop as with potatoes

The relations Of the government Of
flee Of experiment stations with the
state stations have never been more
cordial than they are at present They
are doing more scientific and practical
work. They are carrying their studies
more thoroughly over the states and
reaching larger proportion of the
farmers and their problems During
the year they published 45a annual re-
ports. bulletins, aad circulars. which
were sent to over $4,000 addresses.
