day last week that . man had been
arrested in Pueblo with a large num-
Der Of pennies in his possession. he
Immediately arrived At the conclu-
sion that the man was the same per-
son who burglarized 4 canon CITY
confectionery store last Monday
night. He conferred with the local
police and his convictions were
strengthened
Yesterday Marshal Kramer came to
Pueblo to investigate the case and
put the suspect through a severe
sweating" process He determined,
however. after investigation that the
man under arrest was not implicated
with the robbery in any way. but said
the circumstances were similar.
The robber Of the Canon City store
secured seventy pennies and several
nickles and dimes The fact that the
suspect had almost that number OF
coins Of the same denomination led
the officers to beliese that he was
the right man. Marshal Kramer, who
formerly resided hare. returned to

PENlTENTIARY GARDENS
AROUND SODA POINT

A gang Of convicts are at work
leveling and terracing lot of land
belonging to the state on the west
side of Sand creek, beyond Soda
point, to be made into gardens for
the growth of fruits and vegetables
for the use OF the penitentiary. The
soil is a sandy loan and is admirably
adapted to the purposes for which y
is to be used as it has for ages received
richness and fertility from the de-
posit washed down the eastern slopes
of Fremont's peak and ths mountains
grouped about It. Under the terms OF
contract made between the state
and the city council couple OF
years ago the penitentiary is entiti-
ed to sufficient water from the water
works pipe line to irrigate twenty
acres of land in the vicinity of where
the leveling and terracing process b
taking place. The reclamation of the
lands along Sand creek and its con-
version into productive property will
materially assist in reducing the cost
of maintenance at the penitentairy.

kOM:A.GOOO Time TO PlOW
ORCHARD SAYS FIELD EXPERT


Fort Collins. Oct 20. The last of
October or the first OF November is a
good time to plow the young or old
orchard, says r. S. Herrick. field hor-
ticulturist at the Colorado Agricultur-
al college. On aaccount OF SO much
gain at this time of the year in many
OF the fruit sections of this state it
may not become necessary to irrigate
before plowing. The orchard should.
however. go into the winter in 8 moist
condition, and If that condition does
not exist, it would be well to give the
soil thorough irrigation before plow-
ing. but do not allow the water to
collect around the base of the trees.
and freeze. as this might cause win
ter injury.
In plowing, avoid throwing up
the ridges or leaving hollows near the
trees or in the tree rows. If ridges
are thrown up against the trees for
winter protection. be sure to level
them down early in the spring before
root growth commences
If in the bearing orchard shade
crop is to be sown early in the spring.
1t would be we'll to follow the plow
with disk to make ready good
seed bed. In any case, II the plow
turns up many large clods. it would
be well to break them up with the
disk, as the soil will hold moisture
much better if'a surface soil mulch is
obtained.
1t is good idea to fall plow the
orchard once, at least, in every two
years. Constant surface cultivation
tends to pack the lower soil layers. to
such an extent as to cause fruit trees
to become shallow rooted. and thus
only surface feeders
1t is well to plow deep except near
the trees. as at this point large roots
may be encountered. A little root
pruning done by the plow win not
damage the growth OF the trees, and
tends to cause the roots to grow
deeper, thus giving them a greater
feeding area. In orchards where the
subsoil under strata OF the soil is Of
a mari. gypsum or hard clay forma-
tfon.- 1t would be well to use sub
soiler. running it as deep as possible.
This would break up the hard pan
and make greater holding capacity
for moisture. II a subsoiler is used,
be careful not to get nearer than
seven to ten feet from the trees, this
depending upon the size and the
length of the roots. The subsoiler
should be followed with plow. Do
not rake on and burn the weeds. ect.,
but plow them under. The more green
material that can be r,owed under the
better, because all our erchard soils
are deficient in organic matter.
