Petition of bond holders to sell
the Sugar company property at

ings.
The petition for receivers SALE we
understand will he Withdrawn.
The court refused for the present
the petition of the receiver to farm
the lands of the company, but on
consent of all parties allowed the re-
ceiver to eXpend not to exceed $4OO
for cleaning up the place and pre-
pairing for farming the coming year.
The intervenors offered to submit
the case upon the evidence intro
duced up to the evening of March s.

but the bondholders requested fur
ther time to produce IA statement
showing the disposition of funds for
1914. 1t was intimated by the
court that it might be necessary to
appoint referee or employ an eN-
pert accountant
The case was adjourned until
March %, at which time the bond
holders offer to produce a statement
of disbursements for 1914
1t appears among other things,
that the bondholders deducted
$500 from the funds of the com
pany as commission for obtaining
certain loan. 1t also seems that
the company has on hand negotiable
assets amounting to $3.50 in ad-
dition to supplies which might be
necessary in the operation of the
factory and the intervenors insist
that this should be converted and
applied to pay the interest and taxes.
The intervenors feel confident that
the court will order this to be done.

MONTE TAKES HONORS
FROM CENTENNIAL H. s

Last Friday and Saturday nights
the Monte Vista High school basket
pail team played two of the fastest
games of basketball with Centennial
High school of Pueblo that have
ever been witnessed on the Monte
Vista floor. Both teams were in ey-
cellent condition the first night and
after hard playing on the part of
both teams, M. V. H. S. came off vic
tor1ous by the score of 33 to 2S.
In the second game Monte was
slightly crippled in having two of
her men play after hard dav's
work. However, it was one of the
most thrilling games of the year and
up to the last basket it was "anv-
body's game" When the pistol was
fired calling time, the score was a
tie and time was extended until one
team could get basket. Centennial
dropped one through in about two
minutes, making a score of 80 to 80.
TWO weeks from today NJ. V. H. S.
plays the fast Arvada team here.
This team claims the championship
of northern Colorado, having won
from every team in the northern
part of the state and all of the Den
yer teams. If NJ. V. H. S. defeats
this team it practically gives her the
state championship, as Trinidad who
claims the southern championship
will not play us. Come out and
boost for your home team.

Amendment Makes Important
Change In Desert Land Law

AS announced in the Journal last
week, in the closing days of the 63d
Congress an amendment was at
tached~ to one of the appropriation
bills which is of the utmost import
ance to the desert land entrymen of
the West.
This amendment makes three i'm
portant changes in existing law COW
ering desert land entries. First it
permits the Department to grant
entrymen three year extension of
time in which to submit final proof.
THIS is AN ADDITION TO THE
EXTENSIONS ALREADY AUTHOR
lZED BY LAW but it can only be
secured in cases where the entry
man can produce sufficient evidence
to convince the Department that he
has reasonable hope of securing a
water supply.
Second. If the entryman cannot
secure water supply for his land
the new law permits him to home
stead his claim.
water supply and does not want to
homestead the land he may pur-
chase it from the Government for
Sl.25 an acre. But he must be pre-
pared to show that he is actually
using the land
To my mind, this is one of the
most important pieces of land legis-
lation enacted during recent years
1t was approved by officials of the
Interior Department and approved
by Secretary of the Interior Lane
the best friend the Western settlers
have ever had in the Interior Depart
ment. 1t was introduced in the Sen
ate by Senator Shafroth of Colorado
and in the House by Congressman
Seldomridge of Colorado. Senator
Shafroth succeeded in attaching it
to the appropriation bill, and we all
did what we could to push it
through the House.
The following is an exact copy of
the law as 1t was approved by the
President.
"Rclicr for Desert Land Entrymen
That the Secretary of the Inter
ior may, in his discretion, extend the
time within which final proof is re-
quired to be submitted upon any
lawful pending desert-land entry
made prior to July /, 1914, such ex-
tension not TO exceed threeyears from
the date of allowance thereof.

that, if the extension allowed by this
act or any existing law were granted
he would be able to secure water

GOOD SEED DAY" MEETS
WITH POPULAR APPROVAL,

Good Seed Day was held in Monte
Vista Wednesday, at the Opera
house. and was we'll attended by the
farmers of the vicinity as well as
the high school students and the
merchants and business men of the
citv. w. H. Olin, Commissioner of
Agriculture for the d. & R. G. R. r.
and DR.. G.. H. Glover and E. H.
Thomas, Valley Agriculturist, were
the speakers of the day.
DR.. Glover gave an interesting
talk on lambs and lamb raising in
the San Luis Valley.
Prof. Olin talked on seed growing
and seed selection, and said that the
San Luis Valley was especially adapt
ed to the growing of high grade seed
peas and oats; that our high alti-
tude and cool climate made the San
Luis Valley equal to Canada in seed
producing opportunities. He also
told us that the Valley is being rec
ognized as one of the best potato
producing communities in the West,
but that in order to get the best
prices, the farmers must combine in
to an association, and that they
should also combine and all raise
not more than two or three good,
early brands of potatoes. Then Sc
cure an agent and have him estab-
lsh in one good locality demand
for San Luis Valley potatoes; in this
for the potatoes when the prices are
best
After the talks, prizes were
awarded for the best kinds of grains
on exhibition. The prize winners
were:
Best hand picked peas-1st, Wat
ers Bros. End, H. c. Ashford.
Best cleaned wheat-1st, Waters
Bros; End, l.. j. Ashford.

prize of five dollars was given
10 the Monte Vista Hardware COM
pany for the best seed grader and
cleaner; and prize of $500 was
awarded by the Monte Vista Milling
Company for the best half bushel of
Marquis wheat, which was won by
the Waters Brothers.
one of the most interesting and
helpful features of the meeting was
the organization of boys and girls
clubs for the growing of good seeds.
me clubs are the Boys Club for bet
Ter seeds, and the Boys Gardening
ciuh; and the Girls Garden and
tanning Club. The young people
are 10 plant the seeds, care for the
gardens and in the fall harvest their
crop and clean and grade the seed.
me Girls Canning club is to can
'uch OIL their crop as can be, for all
Vi which prizes are to be awarded,
Shen the proper time comes for this
work.
Ill the afternoon Prof. Olin and
" DioVer gave two very interesting
'"'As IN the Assembly of the high
,."ool which were greatly enjoyed
oy all of the students and teachers
as well.
