FEAST ON BAKED TUDERS
FIVE THOUSAND AT cARBoNoALE
POTATO FESTIVAL.
Yields of Western Slope Fields Thia

Hope of Prosperity.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Glenwood Springs, Colo.-With four
teen quarters of beef, 5000 baked po-
tatoes, scores of loayes of bread and
gallons of coffee and other good
things to tempt the appetite, Carbon
dale celebrated her fourth annual po'
tato festival and was hostess to hun
dreds of Western Slope people who
entered the festivities with a gusto
which comes as a result of the bumper
crops harvested throughout this sec
tion of the slope.
Never in the history of Carbondale
have such crops of potatoes been gath
cred in the Roaring Fork valley. An
idea of the yield is FOUND in the fol-
lowing:
Charles Nov harvested 362 sacks Of
lis pounds each from measured acre.
He got $50 sacks an acre from fifteen
acres
George Sievers loaded eight carloads
of potatoes from seven acres of his
ranch.
Max Grubb, son of Gene Grubb, the
potato expert, will harvest 100 cars
of fine tubers. Lou and Frank Sweet
will do equally as well from their
fields.
Indications now are that the entire
1900 acres of potatoes in the Carbon
dale district will average better than
800 bushels to the acre this year. d.
But their potato crop is not the only
source of profit, for forty-five cars Of
cattle were loaded at Redstone, south
of Carbondale. and ground has already
been secured for the location of a
marble-finishing mill which will en-
ploy from $50 to 200 men throughout
the year. And Carbondale folks made
merry with feasting, dancing and
street sports, while Rifle and Marble
bands enlivened the affair with con-
certs.
