1t remained for Ms. Dora Hearne,
an employee of the Alamo Grain COM
pany to discover their identity. She
was asked to attend to Mr.. Smiths
chickens during a temporary absence
and noticed the sugar beets and that
they were of unusually large size.
She took one to her place Of en-
ployment and put it on display but
the remainder were left to go to seed,
it being Mr.. Smiths intention to en-
deavor to raise a crop of them.
Mrs. Deane says that one Of the
beets left is larger than the one she
took.
The sugar beet crop of Colorado
is worth more than 100000 annu-
ally. Persons who have seen the ac-
cidentally grown beet are wondering
how large they would grow if pur-
posely cultivated.

people at large?
1t seems that the move was to get
rid of this crowd so they might go
on with their planning without it be-
ing too public, but failing to do his,
they finally came out in the open and
said they were in favor of building
the reservoir. Wouldn't that be
enough for the average citizen, who
happens to know all about the reser-
voir contract, the dirt dam 1900 feet
long, 300 foot base, 100 feet high,
that the engineer said he could put in
at 10c a yard and make money?
You could get lots of fellows to
say the same thing for 100000.
After all the destruction that has
been wrought by dirt dams, it seems
strange that IN engineer would give
one a second thought, and yet we
have such.
Everybody in Park County knows
of the Coe-Rader case. the result of
damage caused by the breaking of a
dirt dam. But if this one should
break where would we go for dam
ages? The building of such a dam
would bankrupt the valley-nothing
left for damages-and yet we hear
people say that this is the only road
to wealth.
Let US see about this: 81 1000, 000.0 90
invested; First who would be bene-
fitted, and how much? Under the pre-
sent conditions the Greybull river
will furnish enough water to raise a
crop on every acre of land in the val
ley. Last year there was ten times

had been properly applied at the right
time. Whit we need is proper man.

SUNSHINE DAM BAD
THING FOR FARMERS
/ OPINION 0. B. MANN
Greybull Rancher Believes The
Taxes Will Bankrupt People
If Enterprise Goes Through.
: Meeteese, Wyo., March "a, 1925.
Editor of the Cody Enterprise:

Editor of the Cody Enterprise:
The Boosters Reservoir meeting,
held at Basin recently, from all re-
ports, turned out to be rather a frosty
affair for the Meeteetseites and the
Park County farmer. The Reservoir
Boosters seemed to be ill at ease and
did not IRE to discuss the issue with
people that knew.
The whole scheme from the start
has been n of Misrepresentation,
brought about by a special law. pass
ed at a special session of the legisla-
ture for a special purpose.
And what is that purpose?
1t is to put the entire Greybull
valley in the hands of the Spectator
SO that he may heap taxes upon the
over-burdened farmer and land own
ner of the upper Greybull until his
lands will be sold for taxes.
There has been three years taxes
without one cent of benefit. There
will also be many more if this is al
lowed to go on, and 1 doubt if any
real farmer will ever secure a benefit
unless he is a stool-pigeon for the
promoters, and 1 am very sorry to
say that it looks as if there might be
such things.
The main drift of the talk seems to
be railroads, sugar factories and beet
farming, and the great profit which
would be realized. You could almost
hear the rattle of yellow metal, and
you could believe that the pot of gold
at the end of the rainbow would be
found in the beet field. What are
the true facts about the beet field?
How manw-what percent are rich
or well-to-do? Where does the mon
ey go that he receives for his beets
after he pays his expense, which is
mostly labor, paid to Russians, Ital-
ians and Mexicans, most of them not
citizens. What good does the money

Paul Stock, drilling contractor for the Ohio Oil Company's Ore
gon Basin well, reports that the mud is holding UP well in the COM
pany's big gasser. Yesterday they ran three hundred barrels of
heavy mud through the high pressure valves. The gas is complete
y under control. and it is the general belief that the company will be
able to carry the mud thick" through the red beds (chugwater
formation), this being done as stated before in the Enterprise. The
Company will set its eight inch string on top of the Embar lime and
then cement it. They will drill into Embar lime with cable tools, the
reason for the shift from the rotary to cable tools being that on in
Vulnerable instances the rotary tools have drilled through an oil
bearing sand and mudded lit off without even showing a trace of oil.
