Colorado Homsstsadsrs JubiIant.

A letter to the Times-Republican
from j. o. Adams, who 10 spending
the summer on his homestead near
Eads. Colo, tells Of the good feeling
prevailing among the homesteaders OF
eastern Colorado, as a result OF
steady downpour Of rain Of nearly thir-
ty hours duration. As result, says
Mr.. Adams. the whole country is thor
oughly soaked, and the homesteaders
feel reasonably assured Of good crops.
During severe thunder shower that
preceded the steadier downpoT OF rain
two clouds met in the irrigated dis
trict between Sweetwatef and Lamar
deluging an extensive area The heavy
rain and accompanying hail did much
damage to wheat and alfalfa fields.
