"Wm. H. Gslitz, who recently dis

LOTS OF RAIN; BIG CROPS
AND PROSPERITY RElGNS

Several rains have visited this
section during the past ten days, in
the neighborhood of half an inch fall
ing last Sunday night and Monday
morning. This makes conditions for
the large amount of wheat that is
being planted, and puts the finishing
touches to the big bumper corn crop
which is now assured with few days
more warm weather. Prosperity rules
supreme in this, the Land Of Plen-
ty." A large acreage of beans will
soon be harvested in this section, and
all indications point to large yields
of this crop. This, along with the
present high prices. is indeed highly
encouraging. The large sugar beet
harvest will commence the latter part
of this month, and industry will then
be at its highest stage in this line.

From Albioa, Nebraska

George w. Sanford Of Albion, Nsbr.,
was recent visitor to Sedgwick
county, and while here purchased
some land uzon the south table. Mr..
Sanford is loud in his praise of this
section of the country, which fact is
borne out in the following communi-
cation which We received from him.
giving his views of Sedgwick county,
after having been here on trip Of
inspection:
Albion, Nebr., Sept Is.
Editor t-Advocate,
Julesburg, Colorado.
THAT Sedgwick county, Colo. has
a glowing future as first-class agri-
cultural section, second to none in the
middle west, is the unshaken convic-
ton of every one who has had the
privilege of driving across the beau
tiful table south of Julesburg, and
viewing, almost with abated breath.
the splendid crops of corn, wheat,
oats and potatoes, together with for
ages of nearly every known variety
Indeed the spectacle which greets
the eye is almost unbelievable, and
the transformation of this semi-arid
country of . few short years ago,
savors of the miraculous. Fifty
wears ago this very plain was the
fayorite rendezvous Of the fleet-foot-
ed buffalo, after whose extinction it
became the common grazing land for
cattle and horses. and for many years
the belief prevailed that aside from
this it was almost valueless. But
look at Sedgwick county today with
her hundreds Of beautiful farm hous-
q. vast fiesda of prairie being sub
Iued BY the naighty tractSr OF med
ern genius and fairly teeming with
progress and thrift on every hand. and
who would dare to calculate the pos
sibilities that are rapidly being un-
folded in this rich section. with
topography which is almost ideal.
"It is fast settling with substan-
tial farmers and is destined to be-
come a great factor in footing up the
assets Of the state. In addition to
his it is also solving the great prob
lem of the eastern tenant farmer
where a state of congestion and usur-
Gus rentals are weighing them down.
and I would say to these farmers
who have little means. come to
Sedgwick county, Coloado, and get
home and throw off the woke Of land
lordism.

With the dining room at the Brown

Wednesday Noon-Day luncheons,
which were discontinued last spring
on account of the closing of the din
ing room at the hotel. These fea-
lures were proving very beneficial to
our city, and it was with regret that
the luncheons had to be discontinued.
Many will be glad to see the Noon
Day Luncheons resumed.

The people who bought their win
ter supply of coal in July are likely
to awaken to the knowledge soon that
they paid more than the probable Oc-
tober price. As high as $3.50 ton
was paid by those who stored in the
summer months. Indications now are
that this figure will be cut dollar,
or at least the larger portion of it,
within the next two weeks or thirty
days. Coal at the mine has been fix
ed at $2.7O by the federal govern
ment, with the provision that if op-
orators can show this to be prohib-
tive figure it may be increased to a
