UNUSUAL PRICES FOR
 GRADED LIVE STOCK
Durham Cows Bring Average Of $103 a Head at Auction East of Town.

Where is the slow blooded knecker who declaims about the decline and fall of the Salt River valley when it's hot?
 The Republican has dug up stories on several occasions lately to prove the contrary of the half hearted statement. Here is another one:
 One Woodward recently placed his fine herd of cattle under the hammer for what it would bring C. O. Me Murtry happened to be the weilder of that mallet, and when the auction was over and the erstwhile owner had time and breath to count the roll of greenbackS of sufficient diameter to strangle one of his bovines, it was found that 33 graded cows had brought an average price of $103. There were besides the gentle kind sundry other livestock, horses and cattle of less important breed than the Durhams, and the prices they fetched were all as encouraging as those paid for the high grade animals
 All of which, Mac claims, is an in dicatiOn of the sustained prosperity of the valley by the Salt while the water coolers need safety valves.

:, irrigation problems and which :.
= will attract to Colorado the at :

:, United States. but a great por- :,

8, lished in short time at the =
| = college. =
s, . = 3 Sc, g 9, 6, = g 6.
This department will be hy-
draulic water-testing department and
the purpose of the department is to
weirs and through headgates, fumes
and all kinds of orifices.
The department will be established
through the cooperation of the
United States department of agricul-
ture and the Colorado Agricultural
| college and was decided upon at a
| meeting of the executive committees
| of the state boar of agriculture at
the college Friday.
The new department will be of
especial value to all irrigation inter
ests in Colorado and the west because
| 1t will furnish a means of determin-
| ing absolutely the flow of water in
| various streams, irrigation bitches,
| fumes and other conduits.
The water used for irrigation in
Colorado is valued at an average of
$40 per second foot for "a hours,
| and where the agricultural interests
are dealing with commodity of
such value an accurate means of
measuring is most essential
At present all measuring apparatus
is based on data secured in expert
ments conducted by Francis 81 years
ago. The work conducted by Fran
els was confined to investigating the
| flow over weirs very much larger
than any now used on western ca
nails and there has long been gem
eral need for experiments to deter
mine the flow of water over weirs
| of smaller size. such as are used in
| practical irrigation. For instance. the
| largest weir used by Francis in his
| experiments was 10 feet long, while
many weirs used in practical irriga-
| ton are only one foot long and from
| this up most of them being below
| o feet
After apparatus is installed the de-
partment will establish a new set OF
data on this subject which will prove
! much more valuable than any availa-
BILE heretofore.
A large concrete tank will be
| built west of the civil and engineer
| ing building. This tank will be
made to conform accurately to detail
ed plans and will hold between one
| half and one acre foot of water. A
large storage tank will be constructed
in which the water can be stored and
from which it can be drawn to the
main tank as needed, passing through
such orifices as may be under test
so that the amount of flow per unit
of time may be ascertained Large
pumps will be employed to return the
water to the tank so that the same
supply may be used over and over
again. 1t will be not only the most
complete plant of its kind in the
west, but will be the most complete
in the United States and it is doubt
full IL IT will be eQualled anywhere

RObT. FLEMING
BROWNS IN
THE PLATEAU

Death by drowning that is sur
rounded by the most mysterious cir
cumstances was the lot of Robert
Flemming, a well known ranchman.
who resides near the mouth of Pla-
teau canon several miles above Pali-
sade. He fell into the creek about
noon, and his corpse was taken out
by County Commissioner Thomas
Dwyer, Albert Bessire and George
Thompon, and Clerk James A Mum
son. The commissioners effected
the rescue about $3.50 o'clock, but on
account of the demoraliZed condition
of the telephone lines above Palisade
the information did not reach here
until the commissioners arrived
here at $50 o'clock
How Fleming could have fallen
into the creek seems to be a mystery.
No one saw him, and his family de-
clare that there was no motive for
suicide. The circumstances sur
rounding the accident, if such ii was.
do not tend to strengthen the theory
of accidental drowning.
No funeral arrangements have
been made today.

Durango. Colo, June 5.-Senator

system.
This is the project in which Sena-
tor West, Senator Cove and Presi-
dent Ripley of the Santa Fe railroad
are interested.
The company proposes to bring
under irrigation 200, 200 acres of the
rich lands lying northwest of Cortez.
partly in Colorado and partly in the
state of Utah. Conservation of the
overflow waters of the Dolores river
is to be accomplished by reservoirs
which will impound 234.000 acre

DIGGING DITCH FASTER
THAN COURT CAN ENJOIN

Ranchers on the uncompahgre pro-
1ect OF the government at Montrose
representing Z 900 acres of the finest
fruit and vegetable land in the coun-
try, are considering what a peculiar
situation they will be in, should the
injunction issued by Federal Judge
Trieber preventing orchardists
through whose lands the west canal
is being built from interfering with
reclamation-service employees, be dis
solved on final hearing.
Dissolution of the Injunction
would stop the government work
from legal standpoint: but, before
1t is issued. if it is ever issued, the
ditch will long since have been fin
ished and water from the Gunnison
tunnel will be pouring onto the rich
lands and helping cultivate the Or
chard and vegetable tracts.
What is the government to do in
case of this kind? is a question that
is being asked and is unanswered
1t is pertinent question, too, be-
cause the ditch is now nearly i'm
ished, and in few days ii is ex-
pected that it will be entirely COM
pleted. The government may have
to let it stand idle. or perhaps stop
"dtti SblHS tHTOuSH ana NIL IL up
and deprive the ranchers of their
water
The workmen are throwing spades
full of dirt faster than Assistant
United States Attorney Ethelbert
Ward can write briefs and answers
in reply to the defense of the Mont
rose County ranchers through whose
land the canal is being built. and the
| federal attorney believes that the
water is going to be running through
the dry lands of expectant home
steaders and others before he finishes
the reply.
The legal race apparently is going
to the ditch diggers as against the
brief and answer writers. Final
| hearing of the case to make the in
junction permanent will see the ca
nal long since full of water. There
is an element of humor in the case,
appreciated only by the government
and the men whose lands are to be
benefited by the water.
The ranchers through whose or
chards the government is cutting its
way for the canal are not able to see
any humor in the situation at all.
The government is forcing matters,
because 1t SAYS the ranchers who now
suffer had notice years ago that some
day the particular route now being
| followed would be used for the ca
