Delayed;
Supt. Goes East

The operations at the factory
are almost at a standstill on ac-
count Of delay in the arrival of
the balance of the machinery.
Tne steam pipes are being laid
this week and everything is be-
ing put in readiness to begin the
manufacture of tires at the earl
lest possible moment after the
rest of the machinery arrives. ~
Mr.. Krueder, the superintend-
ent has gone to Akron. Ohio,
to hurry up the shipment.
Mr Clark is very much out of
sorts over the delay. A letter
received at the First State bank
from the manufacturers stated
that the shipment was to have
been made the 18th, but had
been unavoidably delayed until
the 30th inst.
Mr.. Clark says he fully expect
ed to be in operation by the 10Th
of August and has orders for
tires, which at present aggre-
gates about 500. 600 worth.

Midnight Disturbance.

J. C. Miller. who lives near
the turn in the road at Elsie
Place became temporarily un-
balanced last Friday evening and
created quite a disturbance in
the neighborhood by striking his
daughter on the side of the face
and then running everyone off
the place with a gun. His daugh-
ter and some of the neighbors
hailed c. M. Duncan who was
coming by in his car, and got
him to bring them to Arvada
where they called Justice H. H.
Gregg out of his bed and pro-
cured a warrant for the old man 8
arrest. August Boehmer served
the warrant a little after mid
night. Miller showed some
fight and was finally overpower-
ed and handcuffed by Messrs.
Boehmer and Duncan and taken
to Golden and placed in the
county Jail. He was brought
back to Arvada Saturday and
placed under peace bonds.

Why Don't Someone Build?

Secretary L. F. Crawford,

ter it has been remodeled to suit
his tastes. Mr.. Crawford will
row be conveniently located so he
can look after the factory busi-
ness without losing so much time
'Ihing and coming. He was more
fortunate than some of the rest
of the factory men, which fact
is a greater detriment to Arvada
than it is to the men who would
lHse to live here. We made men
tHn of the need of more and bet
ter houses in Arvada weeks ago,
but as yet no one has appeared
with the means or the inclination
to start building for speculative
purposes.
Not a day goes by but that some
half a dozen good looking strang-
ers have knocked at our gates to
know if we had the kind of a
house they would like in which
to move their families, but they
are turned away with q negative
answer. Why don't somebody
wake up and get busy?

MRS. GERTRUDE WEAVER BARLOW
DEAD BY ACCIDENTAL SHOOTING

This community was shocked
beyond expression when the news
of the death of Mrs. Edward
Barlow, bride of three weeks,
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. j. j.
Weaver of Lone Tree Ranch two
miles north of Arvada, became
generally known.
The message came by phone to
David w. Dryden's residence,
and was sent over to the Weaver
home by John Lercher, Jr., who
was visiting at the Dryden home.
1t was delivered to Mr.. Weaver
at about $50 Sunday evening
and it is needless to say, was a
crushing blow to him. The mes
sage read as follows; Gertrude
is dead. Shot thru the heart.
Don't know how or why. Was
found by Ike. Ed and Sam were
away" 1t was a cruel blow to
the devoted family and the de-
tails being so indefinite made it
all the harder to bear.
The scenes surrounding Miss
Gertrude's happy marriage OF
three weeks ago to Edward Bar
low, a prosperous and highly es-
teemed ranchman and cattle
breeder of Antonito, Colo, were
scarcely effaced from the vision.
Since that day she and her ador-
ing husband had disappeared
down the road from her home in
company with their merry max
ing friends. Mrs. Weaver had
received five letters telling of
her happiness - and now this
awful intelligence which came as
a thunderbelt from a clear blue
sky.
Mr.. Weaver came to Arvada
early Monday morning and made
every effort possible to obtaix,
more definite information, but all
to no purpose.
The tragedy occurred in a lonely
spot 40 miles from Antonito, over
the New Mexico line in Mr.. Bar
lows temporary cattle camp. 1t
was at first believed to have been
murder but later it developed
that it was an accident.
Mr.. Weaver left on an after
noon train Monday for Antonito
and teiegraphed more detailed
information about noon Tuesday.
The real facts were not learned
however, until Mr.. Weaver, ac-
companied by the grief stricken
young husband, his father and
brother arrived with the body
Wednesday morning. :
Burton and Chinn met the Z
O'Clock train in Denver and
brought the body directly to their
undertaking parlors, while the
heart-sick and travel weary party
went to the St. James hotel for
a short rest.
The body was removed to the
Weaver home an hour later and
G. S. Scott met Messrs. Weaver
and the Barlows at the $50 car
and took them in his car to the
Weaver residence.
The details of the accident, as
nearly as could be learned are
substantially as follows:
Mr.. and Mrs. Barlow had gone
up into the mountains to spend
their honeymoon, near the range
where the gruoms cattle were
and were staying in atemporary
camp.
They were accompanied by Sam
Hill, of Mt. Olivet and a man.
servant, an old Mexican named
Ike. Messrs. Hill and Barlow
had gone about two miles fishing
leaving Ike At the camp.
Mrs. Barlow saw a grouse near
be camp and asked Ike to go and
shoot 1t. There we're several
guns about the camp one of

THE CULTIVATION OF PEANUTS

The cultivation of the peanut should begin soon after planting and con- tinue until the vines occupy the ground. If the surface of the soil gets hard before the plants break through, it is good plan to run a weeder over the field to break the crust. AS soon as the rows can be followed, regular cultivation should begin. A 2-horse riding cultivator is employed to large extent in the old peanut growing regions, although 1-horse cultivators are used by many farmers. A cultivator will give bet ter results than sweep or blow. The surface should be stirred as soon as possible after rain in order to pre- vent the baking of the soil
 After the peanuts begln to peg" or form pods, they should not be dis turbed or given further cultivation For the last cultivation it is a con- mon practice to employ a cultivator that will roll the soil up under the branches, to provide loose soil for the pegs" to penetrate.
 Rotation. Peanuts should be grown lin rotation with other crops rather than as a speciality. For the best results the land should not be planted to peanuts oftener than once in three or four years. A good rotation is corn with cowpeas between the rows, followed by winter oats. After the oats are harvested the land should be planted and Spanish peanuts planted. The next year cotton should be plant ed and bur or crimson clover sown be . tween the rows of cotton at the lasC cultivation. The clover is turned un- der the following spring and the land planted to corn.
