acre; condition, S5.1.
Speaking of this great showing
James Wilson. secretary of agri-
culture. said:
1.-The crops are the heaviest on
record. The season has been favor
able, but some credit is due to the
wide efforts made in late years by
the federal government and the
states to help farmers throughout
the country to get better returns
from the average acre"
'The world has been searched for
better plants by the department OF
agriculture and its scientists have
been creating new plants by hybrid
ization.
"Twenty-eight million pieces OF
literature have been sent out by the
department, in addition to advices
from the state stations
More than three billion bushels
of corn, almost a billion and half
bushels of oats. and $50 millions OF
bushels of spring wheat have been
grown. The states in the northwest
are harvesting the greatest crops
ever grown there.
1T looks as if We won't have to
import any potatoes this year. said
Secretary Wilson in commenting
on the record potato crop.

POOL HALL IS
UP AGAIN AT
FORT LuPT0N

Fort Lupton. Oct. 10.-The ques-
tion of whether Fort Lupton shall
have a pool hall is again the leading
subject of discussion. NJ. J. Leon
ard OF this place and Mr.. Sells Of
Denver have asked for licenses, and
the matter is under consideration.
II the licenses are issued. II is
said that a large brick building Will
be erected in which to enstall pool
tables and bowling alleys. AS the
alleys occupy about rs feet In
length, 1t Is evident that the build
ing would necessarily be something
like 100 feet in length, and II ar
ranged to have tables In front, 1t
would have to be much longer. This
would give to Fort Lupton build
ing which would show up well in
the town. and many of the residents
are in favor OF permitting the licen-
res. but at this time it is not known
what action the authorities will Sec
fit to take upon the matter.
