Haxtun Farmers Have Planted Trees

Haxtun Farmers Have Planted Trees
S. w. Fox returned to Keota Monday
from business trip to Haxtun, Colo.
He was very favorably impressed with
the resources of that section of the
state, altho he declares their possibili-
ties are no greater than ours, at Keota.
Altho Haxtun is a dry-farming commu-
nifty, nearly every farm has its orchard,
shrubbery, and grove of shade trees, all
grown without irrigation by means of
intensive cultivation. Farmers there
complain Of an extended drouth period
this season; but generally their crops
are excellent this year, and sales of
land at fifty dollars an acre have been
recorded in that vicinity. Mr.. Fox is
convinced that Haxtun methods would
be equally successful here, and promise
rapid development here. Mrs. Fox and
the children came from Boulder, joining
him at Sterling and returning to Keota
with him.

STATUS OF LOST CORNERS
Work of County Surveyors Ac-
cepted by Interior Department

There has been considerable discussion
thruout Colorado regarding the legality
Of lost corners. reestablished by county
and other surveyors. At one time petit
tions were circulated for government
resurvey, but they were denied for the
reason that there was too much patented
land for the government to interfere in
settlement of boundary disputes.
The Department of the Interior has
followed the policy of accepting county
surveyors work, and in this connection
letter received in Keota this week
from an assistant to the Commissioner
Of the General Land Office. Washing
ton, is of interest. He states that
"Where parties are dissatisfied with
the results of the reestablishmsnt Of
corners by the county surveyor, their
recourse is in the local courts. which
are clothed with powers to assemble
testimony concerning the locations of
alleged old corners, to consider the
methods adopted in the restoration of
such as are missing, and to enforce their
decrees." In other words, the corners
found or established by county survey
ors must be accepted until set aside by
a county court, and the burden Of prov
ing that such corners are in error rests
upon the complainant.

at the southeast corner of section

Individually, the commissioners ex-
press desire to satisfy the need of east

principally for grain threshing on the
table land north Of Keota.
The horsepower outfit is working with
entire satisfaction to its owners. 1t
gets practically every kernel OF grain,
is quickly and cheaply moved. and has
proven its ability to thresh considerably
more than 500 bushels of grain in day
run. The threshing has already been
done with it at the farms Of w. X.
Bowles, John Mcmillan. w. j. Simms,
C. E. Andrews, Karl Kler, Clifford Job

Andrews, and the Wise place farmed by
Clarence Moreland. c. E. Andrews
reports peculiar experience with rye.
He seeded q field in the spring OF 1912,
and from its manner Of growth learned
that he had planted winter rye instead
of the spring variety. During 1912 he
made two cuttings of hay from this
field, and this year threshed grain from
it.
The steam outfit of w. o. Young has
been busy for couple of weeks south
and west of Keota, and is having good
run of work. No extremely high yields
are reported, but generally the grain is
quite satisfactory. The best yield re-
ported so far by tho Young outfit, is
that of W. A. Peters, whose winter
wheat run 22 bushels to the acre.
Hughey Irwin had eighteen acres OF
wheat which threshed out better than
eighteen bushels to the acre. o. N.
Ernst got 528 bushels Of rye. barley, and
wheat. Herbert Poush got 164 bushels
of Macaroni wheat from IL acres. j. r.
Poush got 5O7 bushels of wheat from As
acres, and PA bushels of barley from
10 acres.
M. L. Haworth last week finished
stacking thirty acres of Turkey Red and
twenty acres Of Defiance wheat that
made splendid showing in the shock,
and which, at conservative estimate,
should yield thirty or forty bushels to
the acre. No threshing has been done
in his neighborhood this season, but
there is considerable grain stacked and
ready for threshing.

HUERIA WILL NOT GIVE UP PRESIDENCY
May Now Raise the Embargo on Arms
and Ammunition So They Can
Fight 1t Out.

Washington. - Official Washington
read with keen interest Saturday the
declaration of Aureliano Urrutia, Mex
lean minister of the interior, that Pro.
visional President Huerta would not
resign, and. moreover, would brook
no Interference by foreigners in his
administration.
While no plan that the American
government has under serious consid.
Grafton involved direct interference In
Mexican affairs, the admitted attitude
of the administration is one unalter-
ably opposed to recognition of the
Huerta regime.
Without the recognition of the Unit
ed States, leading Mexicans hitherto
have claimed, Mexico would not be
able to extricate herself from her
financial difficulties. On this account
1t has been hoped at Washington that
pressure would be brought to bear
to persuade Provisional President
Huerta to resign. The announcement
that he has determined not to do SO
has beclouded the situation and has
spurred the Gonstitutionalists to fur
Their activity to obtain the repeal of
the embargo on arms. They claim
that If they don't get arms the revolu.
ton will be q protracted struggle.
With munitions Of war, they say they
can quickly bring matters to a crisis.

ENGLAND AFTER NAVAL BASE N DERMUDAS
May RevoIuslonize Entire Naval Policy,
as England Has Made Inquiries
Concerning the Panama
Canal Route,

Washington. - Keen interest han
been aroused in official circles al
Washington by report reaching the
state department that Great Britain
is contemplating establishing a great
naval base in the Bermuda Islands.
1t Is authorltatively stated that the
British government has made inquiry
concerning the plans Of the United
States for protection Of the Panama
canal routes, and It has been sug.
gested that this indicates an inclina.
tion to safeguard British shipping
through the isthmus as Is done In
the Mediterranean.
Officials realize that the problem
raised Is tremendous one, involving
as 1t may the very life Of the Monroe
doctrine and marking. perhaps, com.
plete revolution In foreign naval pol.
icy in the Western Hemisphere. for
1t Is expected that If Great Britain
changes her naval policy in American
Atlantic waters. other European ma.
tons probably will follow suit. While
these changes may be expected in the
Atlantic waters and the West Indies,
officials likewise realize that, with the
opening of the canal, the United
States must contend with Japan for
domination OF the Pacific.
The British royal navy abandoned its
naval stations in this country about
ten years ago, when the United States
gave up the idea Of the construction of
the Nicaraguan canal. and set about
digging the big waterways across Pan.
ANA, whose approaching completion
bids fair to revolutionize international
relations.
Apart from its West Indian stations
the royal navy maintained stations at
EsQuimault, B.. c., and Halifax, N. S.
There once was plan to strengthen
the Notifications at EsQuimault over
looking the Strait of Juan de Fuca' in
order to make that an important base.
but both these stations now are little
more than recruiting stations for the
royal navy. British troops were with.
drawn from st. Lucia in the West In.
dies In 1906, and what once was
grand military station became only
commercial coaling station and is. not
today even a saluting port.
