Bevran, Pueblo Coun ty, Colo., June 80,—On this hot day, when most of the world is sweltering with heat, T drop a few notes from this Yeautiful mountain retreat. This placo is the Green Horn range, a portion of the vast Rockies. It is the nearest summer resort to ueblo, and the denizens of that hot and bristling city turn anxiously for some way of escape from the poor water, excessive heat and consequent sick ness, The only drawback to this place lies in the fact that it is a fiv.-hours' ride over a hot plain to reach it, but when once here the difliculty is forgotten. Nor is the drive of twenty-eight miles to this resort without its attractions The flora of Colorado is rich and rare to other portions, First lot us men- tion the cactus family. Here is the globe cactus, There are several va- rictios of them. Generally they are early bloomers. Then comes the rose cactus, It seems strange that there should come from such hideous and repulsive plants such flowers of rare and exquisite beauty. Yet, amid those thorny beds of the worst vegeta ble deformity, you will find a perfect glory of bloom. The flowers of this family are red and yellow, and very much resemble roses, Then we have the bush cactus, which grows some- times six to seven feet high, and is large enough for a cane. I cut two fine specimens yesterday. These are now budding to bloom. Then we have the “yucca, the root of which the Mexicans use for soap, and it is the finest material for hair-wash known. This plant has long spikes thickly clustered with thwerss Here on one hend is a species of purple verbena, covered with bloom. Then comes the delicate blue bell, the hair bell, and flowers o all hues from snowy white to dark purple, and when you reach the mountain you find richer varietios still; more delicate and fragrant own to their sheltered locations, A g tleman informed me that in a walk of two hours over the plaius, he classified fifty-two varietics of flow- ers and this without enumerating the mountain varieties So the ride over the plains is not without its charms. Uere a score of deer sped away before us, and there we sec a drove of ante- lope. Reaching the mountains we do- scend several hundred feet into the valley of the Ssn Carlos river. Years ago this charming retreat was known ag Muca’s hole. Mace was a noted cattle thief, and here he gathered his stolen herds, but time drives out this rougher cowboy element, and in the place comes the higher type of civili- zation—a model BUMMEr resoxt in the place of a robbers’ roost. Beulah is a charming vailey, about 6,000 feet above sea level, and is hemmed in by mountans, some of them thousands of feet high. These are mostly covered with scrub ocak and evergreens. In these mountains are thousands of the coolest, mest romantic places, just the places to hide from heat aund care. Here are spurting streams running over the clearstones, here are stately pines and spruce and in some places you will find a_clear brook running near the base of the mountains, and the valley will be dark and cool with the shade of dense trees where the broiling sun will fail to find you. The nights at this elevation are always cool, in wide contrast to all the plain and prarie regions furthereast, Com ing up here from Pueblo where the nights have been very sultry, we found we needed extra bedding by nightand extra clothing by day. This place was first brought to notice by Major Townsend and Judge Richards. Mr. Townsend is one of the leading lawyers of this stat:, and has had much to do with developing southern Colo- rado. He was formerly from Peoria, 111, contemporary in law practice with Col, Ingersoll. He also has won in 1liinois politics quite a reputation as an orator and lecturer, but is in senti- ment opposed to the Colonel’s opin- ions and disbeliefs. Judge Richards was formerly of Boston, but he has had a wide western experience of fellowing the sea in his early days and a vigorous pioneer in later years, He has an inexhaustible fund of experience and anecdote, He is gracefully moving down into the autumn of life, but is in the full en- joyment of youthful age. Both the judge and mayor are in active business at Pueblo, and have done much to add to her advaucement, but they have learned the high art of rest and are now teaching it to others A summer hotel called the Patton House has been erccted here, and tents and cottages are going up all the while, One of the attractions is the excellent water. There is a fine soda spring noted for its healing powers ORCHARD & BEAN, % Sk Bons End J. B. FRENCH & CO,, and also a strong soda and iron spring which has lately been developed. This is one of the most restful of places. At 4 o'clock this morning I took a short stroll to drink in the glories of the dawning day. The air was cool, deliciously tinged with the fragrance of the evergreens, and the birds in happy song were mingling their notes. The mountain stream which murmurs past us gave us the soothing mono- | CARPET 8GR OO ERIE 8|ty " i, WHOLESALE AND RETAIL DEALER IN was in her softest moods, and when the sun came looking down into this > mountain valley he found here the , spirit of rest, T took time to climb b % Mont Nebo with the Major and from d ‘ the summit had a view of one of the N A . fairest valley embosomed in the moun- tains. There were some of the finest farms I have seen in the state, It is much more moist here and the air is ! I‘UMBBR softer than on the plains.

Itisat ty tree, and by b ing tranaplanted once or twice whil young would make an excellent trec for the prairies, Here is also the red codar, much like our own, and the rocky mountain cedar which is almost as hard as oak. There are three kinds | of spruce, one resembling the Norway, | another looks some like Balsam Fir and the other is the most beautiful of all overgreens—Silver Fir. It would pay some one to go int one of these rich mountain valleys and gather thousands of these ever greens and prepare them for huntir on Nebraska prairies, A tree taken from its native forests to a different sotl and climate, espocially an_over green, would stand but a poor chance. | Some years ago thousands of Colorad: overgreons were sont to Missouri from this state in the hope that they would succeed, but most of them died. The reason is this: If you go after a tre in the foreats the roots will not be & home, They wander off quite a dis tance, aud so the treo has but poor support—not enough to move it far. But transplant it a fow times and it will then have numerous small fibrous roots which go with the tree and en- able it to resist the strain of removal. Next spring, if I have leisure, I shall try some experiments with trees, and seo if they cannot be prepared for prairie planting. C. 8. HARRISON, —r—— Satisfactory.
