ALetter From &C. Collins.

Ed. CHEYENNE RECORD, Il see
the county papers are all urging
the settlers to plant Alfalfa. I
don't want to discourage anybody
or be classed as a knocker, but
my experience in growing ALI
alta teaches me that it is just as
impractical to grow alfalfa pro-
fitable on the dry up-lands of
Eastern Colorado as it would be
to grow oranges, SO my advice
would be to all of you who do
not have shallow water to not
waste your time and money in
trying to grow Alfalfa. l mean
by shallow water a to 6 feet.
Prof. Lowery told me at Chey-
enne Wells last fall during the
Fair that he did not consider it
at all practical.
believe l can tell you how
you can succeed here, at least
those Of you who are able to do
so. Lease a section or two of
the vac ant land adjoining your
homestead, put a good fence
around it, get YOU a bunch of
good cows, Is head will do to
start with, plant some Milo Maize
Sugar Cane and Sweet Clover.
These three things will be sure
to furnish you feed for your cat
tie. If you are not able to start
as I have suggested, start on
your own 800 acres with half-a-
dozen cows and grow the above
mentioned crops and stay with it
and you will sure succeed. 1t
will seem slow and will be slow
but will be sure. l feel sure
that to try to succeed here by
raising corn, wheat and alfalfa
is an impossibility.

All Woodmen, Royal Neighbors
their families and sweethearts
are invited to attend and help
make the event a success. A
general good time will be the
order of the evening. The differ
ent members of the two lodges
who are in a position to do so,
will bring well filled lunch bask-
cts. that all who may atte nd
will be taken care of. Again,

Committee on Arrangements.
A letter received by VIM.
Stephenson of this place, from
l.. S. Wilson. of Iowa, states that
he would like to be out in the old
town of Cheyenne Wells, that he
likes the climate, good roads,
and the prairies. and the good
and clever people here. He also
states that the winter weather
man has camped in bis town and
has come to stay. He arrived
last Friday and the sun comes
out and shines occasionally. but
the pessimist howler says, 'Oh
this is only a weather BREEDER"
but let the Howler, howl, and
kicker, kick. we will enjoy the
sunshine while it lasts. If it is
true, that Eastern Colorado has
some drawbacks, there is no
country immune, none perfect.
We make the guess that as
soon as spring makes its first
appearance here that L. S. will
be coming on the first train to
enjoy the beautiful sunshine of
Eastern Colorado.

against his only son-the boy whom

Burke's rasping voice reiterated the
accusation with a certain complacency
in the inevitability of the dilemma.
