DEVELOPMENT OF VALLEY
Continued from First Pseo,

by the dry farmers throughout the
valley. and in each case they have
proven successful. While the wood
or stave silo is more cheaply con-
structed. let it is more ap to dry out
in the summer when not in use and it
then difficult matter to get it air
Light again to keep the silagc sweet.
1t also has been demonstrated that
silage keeps nearly as well in pit
silos as in any other kind. These OF
course. cannot be constructed in the
irrigated district on account of water
getting into the pits. The ordinary
silo will hold from 100 to 125 tons.
Other developments in the Arkan-
sas Valley during the year are: The
construction of large high school
building at Las Animas. a gas plant
and new opera house at La Junta,
a large dairy COW sales barn at La
mar, an Odd Fellows building at
Canon City. and great deal of devel-
opment work on many new irrigation
propositions in the valley, among
which are the Pueblo-Rocky Ford Ir-
rigation company. the Omar rcser-
voir, the Coke reservoir and the Bent
Prowers irrigation system.
Another development this year has
been the seed business in the Arkan-
sas Galley in the Rocky Ford district.
One firm there contracted for and
planted this year 100 acres of peas,
to be grown exclusively for seed.
They had 90 acres of beans for seed.
The hail. however. destroyed all but
ten acres OF the beans. This is the
first year that peas. and string beans
have been grown in the Arkansas val
ley exclusively for seed This in ad-
dition to the cantaloupes, watermel-
ons and cucumbers that are grown for
seed purposes, makes the business one
of great importance to the Arkansas
valley and southern Colorado. Sew
cral cars OF these seeds were grown
| this year.
During the year OF 1914. there was
constructed at May Valley, an alfalfa
meal mill of 90 ton per day capacity;
constructed OF 40 ton per day capacity
and at Avondale an alfalfa meal mill
was constructed of 80 ton per day
capacity.
The best estimate to be had on the
number of tons of alfalfa hay in the
Arkansas Galley this year is $4,000
tons, OF which 100000 tons will be
ground into alfalfa meal Alfalfa
meal. owing to its density. can be
handled in localities where alfalfa hay
cannot be handled. especially in the
larger cities, Therefore. alfalfa meal
is finding a market in such large
cities as Cincinnati Cleveland, New
York. Pittsburg. Philadelphia. To-
ledo. St. Louis and Chicago.
During the year OF 1914. there were
produced and shipper. l,728 cars OF
cartaloupes and l64 cars of water
ms Ions. being the largest production
of melons the valley has ever known.
The sugar beet industry, while the
acreage is less this year than last
year. the increase in tonnage of near
ly two tons. per acre will produce
about the same tonnage OF -s,sAar
bcets this year as was produced in
| 1918.
