HIGH MOUNTAIN VALLEY
TO GROW VEGETABLES

From Wet Mountain Tribune.
G. l.. Fitch of the Agricultural col
lege at iAmes, Iowa, who with his
wife spent several weeks here this
fall. has secured by purchase two
tracts OF land near Wcstcliffe for the
purpose of engaging In tho truck
gardening business ON extensive scale.
Mr.. Fitch covered wide territory in
southern Colorado before coming here.
Ehe places secured are tho S0-acre
tract of James Boyd on the left OF the
road this side of the cheese factory
ranch and the 1sO-acre tract across the
line to the north of tho cheese fac
tory house. The consideration for the
former tract is $3.50 and for the lattcr
50 900.
Mf Fitch spent considerable time -
examining the soils OF these places.
Part of tho land will be tiled to carry
off the uuderflow. which will entail a
considerable expense. This is necessary
in converting wet meadow land into
vegetable producing land.
The principal crops to be grown ars
caulinowcr. head lettuce. peas. cab
bagc. etc. and $4,000 plants OF tho first
named vegetable are already being ar
ranged. for 1t is desired TO begin tho
preparatory work this fall IL the
weather will permit.

from low prices of products. No coun-
try cxcels the state of Iowa as fav-

in Iowa hard times are worst.
An this is strange and inexplicable

the observer would have expected.
Nor would he have expected to find

The bottom seemed to have fallen
out of the wheat market in Chicago
the middle of the past week when
the price sank below a dollar The
figure gradually recovered above that
mark but on Saturday the whole mar
ket was hesitatins and nervous. some
opinions look for a sharp revival this
week but in any case there can not De
any decided effect so far out west as
Colorado. The whole line of grain and
grain products and hay are weak and
the new corp crop must be sold at low
rates IL at all; yet there is no dirt
cheap Eiye-away condition for any
thing. While meats continue very
cheap. and milk made a decline during
tho week, eggs showed decided ad-
vance. Apples are moving freely at
good prices. also vegetables. The
mountaineers are having an exceed
ingIy favorable fail season for getting
the potatoes out of the ground and in

to reverse things all in - heap when tho
change does come but all hands are

Nevertheless, the Syndicate Of Hotel,
