Jos. McDermott is expecting to re-
ceive Saturday the latest model of the
patent ditching machine, which has
been invented by himself and W. j.
Andrews
This remarkable plow is a very simple
contrivance to run with two horses, but
will cut the toughest wire grass sod.
and lift the sod and dirt out and deposit
it on the ditch bank. Ranchmen all
over the irrigated districts have been
looking for such ditcher for fifty years
and this seems to fill the bill exactly.
Mr.. Andrews has been in Denver for
several weeks, arranging for their man.
ufacture. Distribution will be through
the Dillon Hardware Co.
Up in the Fort Collins Greeley dis
trict, . demonstrator sold forty eight
plows in few days. in fact, it sells
like hot cakes on sight. This sample
will be the first late model on the west
ern slope, where much interest is d.
ready exhibited by rsnchers who have
native hay and alfalfa hay fields.
The plow cuts from eight to twelve
inches wide and from four to twelve
inches deep. making a clean half circle
out and then lifting the sod through q
sort of chute. Ii will run close to Q
fence, but is especially valuable in max
ing and cleaning lateral bitches through
the meadows.
Mr.. McDermott is arranging to have
IN exhibition of these machines on Cat
tlemen's Day.

COUNTY COURT HOUSE At CUNNsON
District Court Continues Busy Grind

The parents of the boy allege that the
condition of the arm, after TIE splint
was taken off, and the expensive trip
to the Sslids hospital, was due to lack
of proper treatment by DIR. Davlin. A
number of witnesses of the medical pro-
fession, among them DIR. Frank
Cochems, of Salida, Dr. T. A. Schaffer,
of Sslida, DIR. N. Macintosh, DIR.
Frank Sanford, DIR. N. J. Hyatt, of
Gunnison, testified that from the evil
dence and so far rs they could deter
mine, the treatment was proper. DIR.
+. P. Hanson testified for the plaintiff
concerning certain photographs which
were alleged to have been taken of the
boys arm after he was taken to Salida.
A prominent feature of the testimony
was as TO whether the arm had been
dislocated as well as fractured DIR.
Davlin testified that it had not beer
dislocated, and experts in the case who
saw it after DIR. Dsvlin treated it, said
t0at II IL nou Deen ulsfOcaleu, IL was
properly reduced before they saw it.
They oil testified that if il had been dis
located. and DR.. Dsvlin treated it o. he
said he did, and rs the testimony seem
ed 10 show he did, then the treatment
vas not proper. But although, the tes-
timony seemed to fail to show that
there was any dislocation of the joint,
the evidence showed that there was q
small fragment of the bone which had
been broken of and dislocated. W. C.
p. Meddins, who taught him manual
training said on the witness stand that
in the boys school work he had not
noticed anything wrong with one of his
arms. Miss Ada Thomas, his teacher
in the grades, testified that she had
noticed nothing wrong in his play. II
seems that he has fairly good use of his
arm at the present time.
