Among our weekly exchanges is
no paper we prize more highly than
The Triton Gazette, and should Edi-
tor Herring cut us off his list we
would indeed feel as though we
were forsaken, we are, 80 to speak,
a youth in the newspaper world,
and like all youths, are more or
less prone to hero worship. The
Gazette is a source Of inspiration
to us that we feel is more or less
necessary, and we hereby present
our petition for continuance Of
his substantial editorials.

averaged more than $4,000 pounds to

these Colorado Pinto beans as they

obtained. A person who will cultivate
his beans as he would his corn. plant
ed on anything like reasonable good
soil, should be able to obtain the full
yield. The market will justify count
ing on obtaining better than our cents
a pound every year and once in awhile
there will come a big profitable sea-
son when the world is short of frijoles.
A little spot disease occurred in Aug
ust but sunshine loon checked its
spread. One drawback was occasloned
by the bad weather late in the fall
when the beans were in the stack.
Help was scarce and many growers
could not get the threshing done in
good season and some of it Is not yet
done.
In the county of Weld alone a mil
lion dollars worth Of Mexican beans
were harvested from the $4,000 acres
planted, figuring the yield at 1900
pounds TO the acre and the price four
cents a pound. Added to this is $500
acres of seed beans that were raised
for eastern seed houses for the first
time this year and which we're con-
tracted at four cents a pound for the
3,75G,000 pounds estimated. making
$140,0 900 more. The outlook now is
that a great many more eastern seeds
men will send out men the coming
spring to contract a much larger acre
age. They need our bean stock and
have learned that the sunshiny re-
gion, even without irrigation, is the
best place in the world to grow the
kind Of seed they need in their BUSH
ness. The situation is such that the
contract prices advance to five and
six cents the pound and it will be a
good time to grow the crop on such
a schedule.-Denver Field and Farm.
