OF WATER
FOR IRRIGATION
Heavy Shows Insure a Good Sup
ply For Coming Year on the
Eastern Slope.
Sentinel Special Service.

Denver, Dec. 26.-The heavy
SHOWS of the past two weeks insu e
plenty of water in all irrigation res
ervoirs in the northern and southern
parts of the state. All the reservoirs
in Weld county are full to overflow
ing, or will be when the snow melts
in the spring. AS a result of this
condition bounteous crops are certain
the coming year in all sections of the
state that depend upon irrigation for
moisture.
In most sections snow was three
feet deep on level, and in gulches it
drifted TO as much as 2 feet in the
mountains. and it is said the average
fall in the mountains is about eight
feet, insuring plenty of water when
the thaw starts in the spring Streams
everywhere will be full to overflow
ing when the snow begins to melt.
The ground which was not frozen
when the snow fell will naturally
soak up much water.
Indications are that the coming
spring will be the greatest in the
states history for growing crops.

tc have the widest pair of wings ever
made, constructed of aluminium steel.
The total weight of the monoplanc
will be 5000 pounds, but the raising
capacity of the wings, as designed,
will be, theoretically, about 5000
pounds, sufficient to lift a crew of six
men, with their provisions and fuel
supply.
The motive power is to be provided
by two 150-hp. steam turbines, weigh
ing 250 pounds each, the fuel for
which will be condensed coke. Each
engine will control two S-ft. propell-
ers of the usual shape, one pair in
front and the other behind. Addi-
tional stability is expected to be Sc
cured by six automatic balancers, in
the form OF square shutters to open
and close as the hydro aeroplane tips
beyond certain angle. A fluid in a
metal ball will control the releasing
triggers for each set of balancers,
the action consuming only 1-25 of a
second. The inventor claims to have
floated stationary in the air for more
than 20 minutes by means of this
equipment on an ordinary mono
plane, during which time the shutters
were kept fluttering constantly.
1t is proposed to carry 500 pounds
OF coke and over 500 gallons of water
in two boilers. which the inventor
claims will be sufficient to keep the
craft in moion for IS hours.

Self-Confidence.

you fall back in the ranks, weak, help
less, despairing. 1t shuts from you

finite possibilities you must yourself
make realities, or you will do nothing
