HOLLY DISTRICT
LEADS The VALLEY IN
FIRST CUTTING OF HAY

Reports from up the Valley as
far as Pueblo concede to the
Holly district the honor of
breaking all records for the first
cutting of hay, amounting in the
aggregate to 10000 tons or at
the rate of II tons per acre on
10000 acres of land.
To those acquainted with the
resources of this famed spot, the
above result is not surprising,
since this region has always been
famed for its hay crop, as far
back as the early SOS, when A.
E. Bent used to think he was
playing in great luck when he
could sell his hay in the stack for
So per ton.
Since that time, however, con-
ditions have changed, and to our
best knowledge prices have
tripled and quadrupled, and there
is no need of sending the hay to
outside markets, as our mills pay
strictly market price for every
thing they purchase.
