 This was a delicate reference to a feature Of today's play which is quite likely to be a subject of international comment by the gofing contingents of England and the United States. Sey- eral times today the gallery viorated the ethics Of the sport by cheering wildly whenever Ouimet gained a point
 The same outbursts occurred yester- day bUt Ouimet was then playing with George Sargent, who had no chance for first place Today it was different and these outbreaks plainly annoyed both Ray and VardOn.

about twenty men and began
making brick Monday, after hav-

The output will be 100000 day
and all, or practically all the men
employed live in Arvada or in this
vicinity, or will probably live
here. The wages paid are from
22l, cents per hour to 27lla cents
for the average workman. They
work 10 hours for a shift, making
from 1926 to $2.75 per day
The company expects a steady

The names Of the boys reported
Monday, are VIM. Gunther, Thos.
Vaughn, Geo. Hines, Geo higgins,
Joe Mitchell, Al Peters, Eddie and

We understand that j. X. Null

plans for a large charitable insti-
ton which if built will take an
enormous amount of the plant s
output to construct.
Aside from this there seems to
be indication Of a general build
ing boom in the territory covered
by the company's product. In
any event, the opening of this big
industry at this time meets with
glad acclaim by the Arvada citi-
Zens and business men.

switchboard was installed at con
cIavc headquarters and by means
of branch telephones at short in

committee was kept in direct
touch with the movements and
progress of the vast army OF
marching knights.
Besides the host of Sir knights
who are in attendance at the con
clavc there are over 100000 visit
ors in the city, and unusual and
careful plans have been prepared
for their care and comfort. Spec
al plans have been arranged by
the telephone company in antici-
patton of the great increase IN
the number of telephone calls dur
ing the conclnvc. For months
past that company has been busy
installing emergency telephones,
additional switchboard facilities
and training the $50 extra opera
tors who will be required to assist
the regular force, in handling the
calls. Over go emergency tclc-
phones have been connected with

Farmers Are Il
Feeling Good.

1t must be matter of deep sat
isfaction to the farmers IN TINS
section to know that their crops
are so nearly matured and har-
vested without serious damage
from the elements and also that
the market is strong and likely to
be still strong. The conditions IN
Kansas, Iowa, Nebraska, Illinois
and in fact nearly all the states
that heretofore have always been
depended upon for large yields OF
grain and other food stutfs, are
deplorable, according to reports.
Present indications are that
Colorado will lead them all in the
products of diversified farming.
This section seems peculiarly
blessed on account of abundant
Yields of fruit and vegetables and
in being close to the splendid
market.
The recent rains have prolonged
the small fruit season almost
third and have made the hay and
small grain yield heavier and of
firmer quality.
Threshing outfits have been
busy the past two weeks and re-
port fair average yield Of wheat.
While 30 to 40 bushels per acre
does not excite the farmers here,
it would stampede the farmers Of
the middle and eastern states who
think 20 bushels Of wheat good
and % bushels an enormous yield.
SO far as heard from Chas. AL
len holds the palm for the heaviest
yield of fall wheat in this sec
ton. Mr.. Allen had tract of
371a acres which averaged 55H
bushels per acre, while a part of
that piece yielded 60 bushels. He
had 571a acres all told which
yielded $500 bushels or an aver
age on the whole of 40 bushels
per acre:
