popular and tended to send the crowd

Good Water Gets Nearer

The pipe line which Ordway is CON
structiDg for piping water into the
town for domestic use has reached the
Numa school house, two miles west
OF town. aud IL is expected that
1t will be run into Ordway within a
little better than week. Farmers
along the line are desirous OF connect
ing with the pipe line, and tentative
agreement between them aud the
town is being made. Ordway has no
special power now for giving c0ncent,
except TO agree that the connection
be made under certain limitations
pending dnal arrangements and regu-
latiuns being made. The only condi-
tion now imposed by the town Is that
all those making connections with
the water pipe now use the meter
that will be installed in OrdwaY, So
that all will be uniform. This meter
will be sold to all consumers at hrst
cost.
This water, when it reaches Ord
way, will be sold only through meter
register, and IL is understood that the
purposes for which IL is used will be
limited. These matters are now be-
fore the town council for considcra-
tiOn and will all be worked out in a
short time and given to the public.

Sewer Work Started

Work on Ordway's brand new sewer
system was begun early Tuesday
morning with appropriate exercises.
No effort was made 10 assemble II
crowd at the ceremony. but the first
dirt was moved by Mayor Ward at the
terminal point, southeast Of the town.
The work was started at the lower
end and will be run westward to allow
for drainage 10 case of necessity.
1t is confidently expected by those
in charge OF the work that the sewer
will be completed within ninety days.
The contract specifies that 1t must be
done within four months. Ripley B
Leslie have the contract. and have
established the camp and all digging
machinery at the lower.end OF the
system. With favorable weather
they expect to go right through with
the work 10 record time.

The twenty second annual fair Of
the Arkansas Valley Fair association

week. For fair so well advertised
and as the best the Arkansas valley
can do, we were not specially en-
Unused over 1t. As for the assembling
OF an ordinary display Of the products
Of the valley aud 10 the matter of free
attractions II was passable-we almost
said bearable. The drst two days OF
the exhibition brought good crowds
and Of course Watermelon Day Thurs

that are made fur general admission

ditional so cents to get u seat In the
grandstand where one might rest and

general admission fee carries with 1t
no privileges except that OF a trip
through the exhibition stalls-we
can't dignity them BY calling them
halls-and the further privilege OF
looking down long row Of concessions

coin Of the realm may be spent. All

money one can't see them decently

of carrying on the fair and the attend
ance do not by any manner OF means
justify.

Pink Meat Display

The movement of the Chamber OF
Commerce looking to the placing on
display at the State Fair to be held In
Pueblo next week of solid carload
OF Ordway Pink meat cantaloupes is
gaining In general approval. and Is
move looking to the better advertise
ment OF the Ordway district and its
famous cantaloupes within the bounds
of the state. This suggestion Of the
Chamber OF Commerce was announced
10 the New Era following it's proposal.
AT this meeting Of the chamber IL
was decided to put on display at Pueblo
a car load OF Ordway Pink Meat canta-
loupes. The idea, as stated at the
time, is to Introduce and thoroughly
advertise the Ordway cantaloupe to
the people OF the state as well as to
visitors from the outside. Realizing
the quality and class OF melons that
are grown in Crowley county. and
realizing also that the people OF Colo.
RADIO do not have an opportunity to
yet our melons, as do the people OF the
eastern markets, where they are more
generally shipped and distributed, the
Ordway Chamber Of Commerce decid-
ed to put on display carload OF
melons and retail them during the
fair. 1t is believed that the people OF
the state will thereby become ac-
quainted with the finest and best
shipping melon grown In any part OF
the country. The melons that will be
shipped will be bought from the
growers and II is the intention OF the
Chamber OF Commerce management
to make IL possible for them to realize
out Of the shipment of melons as
much money as they can by shipping
] them east, and In addition to that,
get larger amount OF advertising in
our home state than has heretofore
been the case.
The Importance Of this display and
distributing the melons to visitors to
the fair can easily be realized, and the
growers are urged to furnish a few
crates OF cantaloupes to go toward
making up the car.
The proposition is simply that the
car Of melons will be put on display
several days Of the fair and on the
day efore its close will be sold out to
visitors at n nominal charge. The
money thus secured will be- prO-rated
amung those furnishing the canta-
loupes after the expenses OF the under.
taking have been paid.
IL you are a pruwer, and have not
already made arrangements for furn-
ishing a few crates. the New Era
urges that you get into communica-
tion with the committee 10 charge OF
the work and let IL be known how
many crates you can furnish. l. Fl.
Shelton Is chairman Of the committee.
While no guarantee is made, you are
practically assured as good a price for
your product As you would get were
the melons shipped to eastern mar
