EVENING CHAT
BY RUTH CAMERON.

Every Saturday afternoon this SPRING

very pretty couple-quite the prettiest that
ever passes down the street, to my way
of thinking.
One of these two is a big six-footer of
man. and the other is a little tow
to the six-footer'S knees.
They are Dad and Junior, and Saturday
being Dads day off, they are going to
take walk in the woods and fields to
watch for the birds and the coming of
the spring flowers. And there's nothing
in all his week, Juniors mother saws,
this walk with his father-no. not even
his plate of ice cream at Sunday dinner
or the box of candy he is apt to find in
Dads pocket of Sunday night
Mothers and Fathers-if there is one
pleasure in life that you simply can't af-
ford to miss, it's this-the joy of making
your little sons and daughters acquainted
with the wonders of the great realms of
woods and fields, teaching them the lore
of birds and flowers and trees training
them to make the most of this healthiest
most desirable interest boy or girl can
have.
This little boy of whom write had a.
big book of pictures given him for Christ
mas There are over hundred plates in
the book, and yet he can name most of
them readily and recognizes many in the
woods and fields.
Think of the pleasure and profit he is
going to get out of this knowledge Some
day when other boys have nothing better
to do than loaf on street corners or at
tend cheap shows this boy will find more
pleasure in tramping through the woods,
for his feathered friends, i'm
itating their calls and hunting for the
rare wild flowers in secret haunts that
he knows of.
Just now, especially, when the outdoor
world is a land of fascinating surprises
and developments. when the birds are
nesting and each week new wild flower
blooms, when
whether we look or whether we listen.
We hear life murmur or see it glisten:
When every cloud feels stir of might
An instinct within that reaches and
towers,
And cropping blindly above 1t for light,
Climbs to a soul in grass and flowers
When the cowslip startles in meadows
green,
The buttercup catches the sun in her
chalice,
And there's never leaf or blade too
mean
To be some happy creatures palace
surely this is the time when you ought
to take your children out into the woods
and fields with you and teach them some

RICH RETURNS
FROM CABBAGE

Japs at lone station, near Platte
vile, have this season sold early
cabbages that brought them over
$500 per acre gross.
Several Japs have been farming
in small way up the Platte and
this season several of them put in
considerable acreage of early cab
bages, which came in to the market
about the time everything was burn
ing up in Kansas and the southeast.
Several cuttings of cabbage were
made from the goth to the 25th of
July, which brought top prices,
$3.50 per 100, or $40 per ton being
received in car lots. Ten and twelve
tons per acre were realized by the
enterprising growers. Three weeks

way of concreting certain portions
Of the tunnel are in progress"
Mr.. Camfield says that as soon
as the plains system Is completed
and 10000 acres of land in the dis
trict made accessible to water, at
tention will be turned to using these
waters in Poudre canon for power
purposes. which will be done with
out affecting it's use for irrigation.
Several large power plants will
be erected and the Poudre water
brought to them through elevated
pipes a mile away, the power gene
rated will be enormous and suffic-
lent, it is said, to electrify all north
ern Colorado for transportation,
light and other power purposes.
There is no trouble in placing
the bonds of the Greeley-Poudre
district" says Mr.. Camfield, land
100000 from the sale of the bonds
each month is going into the con-
struction work"
The Union Pacific Railway COM
pany has already built branch lines
traversing the district and the
farmers there will find transporta-
tion ready for their crops from the
first harvest. By bringing OF irriga-
tion to the Greeley ouure territory
the crop output of the Greeley dis
trict will be doubled in six years, is
the prevailing opinion.

SWATTED ON

BILLY CLUB
ALLEGED HIGHWAY ROBBERY
AT ERIE LAST NIGHT
EFFORT WAS A WATERFALL
Dick Thomas and Abe Williams are
Waylaid on Way to Shack at
Edge Of Town But Robber
Couldn't Find Cash

Erie, AUG. 22.-An alleged high
way robbery last night wherein Dick
Thomas and Abe Williams were the
victims, has landed Ed Johns of
this place in the hands of the Of
ficers.
The story as told this morning is
In effect that Thomas and Williams
were on their way to the latter's
shack on the edge of town last
night, after having cashed a check
for $50, when they we're waylaid by
Johns, pounded over the heads with
billy, and while semi-conscious
had their clothes rified, but without
result. Coming to. the boys are said
to have recognized their assailant,
and as he had obtained nothing,
told him that If he came into Erie
this morning and apologized to
them they would not prosecute him.
Johns is said to have shown up all
rihgt with his apology, but the city
authorities getting wind of the
trouble and not feeling bound by
the promise of Thomas and Will
lams, took Johns into the tolls. It
is expected that he will be brought
to Greeley today or tomorrow.
1t is said that the family has been
in trouble before and the officers
believe that they can make the pres
ent charge stick.

PLENTY WATER NEXT SUMMER
IN GREELEY .-P0UDRE bitches

ID. A. Camfield says there will be
plenty of water lowing through the
bitches of the Greeley-Poudre sys-
tenn in time to grow next years
crops, and thereby provide basis for
final proof on the 1000 acres of
desert land entries in the district
that must be made next year.
Mr.. Camfield is in the city for a
few days and in talking with Gree
ley parties last night said:
AT least so per cent of the main
ditch of the system is completed and
big force of men and teams at
work now will finish it this season,
including its principal laterals. Ef-
fort will be centered on building the
Plains system of bitches and reser-
voirs rather than on the mountain
sytem, as the ditch work of the lat
ter necessary to being water to the
plains was built last year. McGrew
reservoir, the largest Of all, east of
Num-, is practically completed, and
recent floods from Owl, Lone Tree
and Crow Creek poured into it.
"A big crew is now excavating the
ditch connecting the completed
Laramie-Poudre tunnel with the
Laramie river. 1t will require about
10 days to finish the job, at the end
OF which time water may be turned
from the Laramie river into the
, tunnel and from there to the Poudre

TOMATO DAY
IS lUPT0N'S
BIG STUNT
VIII BE Held Next Month and Out
shine Every Other County
Gathering This Fall

Fort Lupton, Aug. 19.-Lupton
will have Tomato Day. This was
definitely decided at a meeting of
the Commercial club last night.
The day has not been set, but it
will be some time next month.
There has been celebration of
some sort in Lupton every season
for the past eight years, and it is
felt that Lupton must keep in line
with the rest of Weld towns who
have no more to show than her own.
President E. s. St. John, of the
Weld County Commercial club,
Charles Sells and G. Landell have
been appointed to look up the mat
ter of finances and other vital de-
tails and another meeting is called
for a few days hence to take defi-
mite action as to dates and pro-
gram. Last nights meeting was an
enthusiastic one and was attended
by a large gathering of farmers and
truck growers as well as town peo-
pie. Tomatoes look better than ex-
pected and the ruddy fruit will fig
ure largely in the diet of visitors
who attend the celebration.

ENGINE GOES
INTO DUCOUT

Windsor, Aug 21.-A traction
engine used with a threshing outfit
which served the purpose of cider
press was a peculiar incident of
this vicinity last week. The apples
we're in the dugout of George Kern
and it was his intention that they
should be left there. The traction
engine belonged to Gus Lundum
and in TRYING to avoid bridge in
entering the farm yard at the Kern
ranch he drove too near the dugout
on the Nher side and the engine
crashed through and landed in the
apple bin. No one was injured by
the accident.

FEEDING STOCK
BY MACHINERY

Denver, Aug. 21.-A 40 per cent
reduction is to be made in the
cost of feeding live stock and con-
siderable saving in labor cost have
been made possible by the invention
of a Denver man in patented stock
food granulator, which will be
manufactured in Denver. The AL
falfa Mill and Supply company, a
100000 concern, financed by local
capital, has completed plans for the
manufacture of the machine in tenn
porary quarters at Seventeenth and
WAzee streets.
As soon as q suitable site can be
secured the company will erect Its
own building. 1t is the intention
of the company later to have organ
lied at various points in the west
subsidiary companies which will
control the manufacture and sale of
the machine in their local territory.
Until the new plant is built and
equipped with the necessary ma
chinery, the several parts of the
granulator will be cast by local
foundries, while the temporary
quarters at Seventeenth and Wazee
streets will lie used for assembling
purposes and sales rooms.
William l.. Monroe, the inventor
is president of the company. II. E.
Wright, p. e. Roulette and II. =.
Bowman. all of Denver, are, respect
lively, vice president, secretary and
treasurer. The financing of the
company was arranged by the
Southwestern Land and Brokerage
company. in which n. Il. Wright
and p. e. A.oulette are also inter-
ested.
The invention has it's chief value
in the saving it makes possible for
stockmen who annually feed thous-
ands of tons of alfalfa hay to cattle
and sheep being prepared for mar
ket. The machine produces in
granulated form a stock food which
puts to use not only the leaves but
the stock of the alfalfa plant. there
by eliminating the waste which in
variably results in existing methods
OF stock feeding. According to ex-
perts on the subject. the stock of
the alfalfa plant has a far greater
food value than the leaves. The
machine is also so equipped as to
allow the mixing of corn and other
grains with the hay and the grind
ing of the mixed food into a uniform
size.
The company expects to have it's
new plant in operation within the
next few months and plans to place
on the market the first year pro-
ducts valued at 100000.

closed the fact that Mr.. Macy had

home via Loveland. stated that dur
ing the time his party was camped
at Waltona, q summer resort in the
Thompson canon. seventeen rattle-
snakes were killed by various men,
bers of the party. He ia inclined
to credit the unusual number OF
snakes to the fact that the summer
was dry and the reptiles were forced
to come down to the river to hunt
the small game on which they live.
