I'd be sitting here today surrounded

was a liar In those day, you know,
we didn't think much would grow
around Pueblo. 1t was all smelters,
railroads and steel works then, tho
the latter was but an infant to what
the big plant is now. Course we had
plenty OF cattle and horses on the
ranges then, and the ranges extended
right up to the city limits. Remember
when the 'S-R' range came up to al

Pueblo chieftain., 1921-02-06
By FRANK NJ. GRAY.)

| Almost any day Pueblo's farmer
headquarters" junction of Grand ave-
nue. and Second streets. and immediate
vicinity, the official city scales being
the hub, can be seen ranchers from
down the valley and various other
farming sections of this county gath
cred in two and threes and larger
groups. discussing current market
prices for their products, state and ma
tional affairs, etc. And always there
will be standing along the street curbs,
with horses unhitched, from four to
six or ten and sometimes twelve wag-
ons with hay-generally newly cut al
falfa, the loads averaging in scale
weight about $500 pounds net. 1t is
to this place city owners of livestock
go to buy fodder and in season are
brought to this city market place and
officially and absolutely correctly
weighed all kinds of farm produce:
potatoes, corn wheat different varie-
ties OF vegetables, oats, beans and in
fact everything produced by farmers
within a radius of 40 miles of Pueblo.
A large tonnage of coal and assorted
stock handled by local commission
houses and brought here by railroad,
also Masses over the city scales. Live
stock from the country, driven to the
Pueblo market for sale is also correctly
weighed and certified to at the off,
cial city scales.
The presiding genius at the city
scales Is Scott Chilcott, a pioneer citi-
zen of Pueblo and one of the few
remaining of the days when Colorado
passed out of waddling territorial togs
into the dignified realm OF statehood
Scott is a son and the only remain
ing descendant of a distinguished
history-making father. the late United
States Senator George NJ. Chilcott-'
n brilliant jurist and nolitician prim-
inent in the early days of Colorado
and a resident and champion of Pu-
eblo. When his son, Scott. just knew
Pueblo, this city was little more than
a stage station on the line between
Denver and Trinidad, and thence over
Ration Pass via the original Santa Fe
trail to the Pacific coast. Born, reared
and educated in this city, Mr.. Chill
colt is a veritable walking encyclo-
pedia when II comes to anything per-
tanning to pioneer days.
Passing the scale house one after
noon recently / saw Scott sitting near
the window smoking n "dudeen' pipe,
apparently In meditative mood.
Come in, old-timer, and sit" said
he, as I appeared at the door. Takes
me back about 30 years every time
see you" and he pushed chair
toward me. "Old town has changed
some since those days, I'll tell the
world"
Mr.. Chilcott paused a n,omen. or so.
