it has gone, more especially since Mr..
Mathews says that the San Juan country
has not been as good a market this year
as usual. 1t can hardly have all gone to
Chicago.
There is one thing certain in regard to
fruit growing in Delta, Mesa and Mont
rose counties, and that is that it will be
necessary to erect local canneries to con-
sumo the poorer grades. OF course il
the attempt is mede to send these grades
to market the reputation Of the orchards
will be hurt and the profits OF the in
dustry will be cut down. For our part,
We believe that the fruit Of the Western
Slope counties is as good as it has been
SO often represented to be by Denver
newspapers. But it is unfortunate that
some poor grades have been thrown on
this market. We believe that for such
grades OF fruit there should be canneries
and drying establishments near the To-
calities of production. Concerning rates,
we hesitate to believe that the railroads
will insist upon charges that would prac-
tically put a stop to further increase in
the orchard area of Delta county.-Den-
yer Republican.

1t 10 fact well established that Delta
county 10 an excellent farming and fruit
growing region. There has been abund-
ant testimony to the adaptability OF soil
and climate to these industries. The
product OF its orchards compares favor
ably with that Of any other part Of the
country-east or west.
But Mr.. E. j. Mathews, manager Of
the Delta County Fruit Growers' a.
sociation. says that one-fourth Of this
years crop will be allowed to hang on
the trees and rot. We are not prepared
TO accept this estimate as yet, but IL il
should prove correct il will show that
there ID very great laundering some
where. Delta 10 on the Denver 4 Rio
Grande. That road has no competition
for its trsfac until eastern connections
are reached, and there the Rio Grande
stops. So that IL Delta 10 less favored
than Grand Junction-where there is
competition is tho fault OF the Den.
yer 4 Rio Grande.
But IL would take pretty strong cvi
dence 10 make US believe that the
management Of the Denver 4 Rio Grande
will stunt the growth Of . district be-
longing exclusively to that company by
refusing to make rate by which its
product can reach profitable market.
II that happens to be the condition oe
affsirs now, then We venture to say that
the facts have not been properly laid
before the traffic department Of the road
We insist upon this, because there would
be absolutely no sense in policy which
would prohibit the planting Of any more
pssch oecbards in Delta county, end 4
one fourth u the crop will remain un-
picked, then the peach orchard area of
the equity ID already great enough.

Rabbits That Climb.

A correspondent writes to the London Field that while he was hunting rabbits with ferrets i'll January he found rabbits on three occasions i'll willow trees which oyerhung the water of mill stream. The miller said that it was not an un- usual circumstance. Some months ago The Field told of other rabbits which had been shot, like raccoons or opos- sums. out of trees in England In re- cent years cases of rabbits in trees have been reported with increasing frequency. From Australia has come the most re- markable story of rabbits as climbers. The only way in which rabbits could be kept out of certain tracts of land in Australia was by the building of wire fences about them, the fences having meshes so small that the beasts could not crawl through and being so high that they could not jump over. The rab- bits have clawed at the wires until their nails gradually have become hooked. Some of the rabbits learned 10 scale the fences, and then great additional ex- pense was necessary, for the top of the fence had to be bent over like J up side down, with the lcoll out, so that the rodents could not get over the top. Australian rabbits are said to be learn ing to climb trees for the leaves

He Had Fallen Of.

Patrick was new man in tho light horse regiment, but his cheerfulness and witty replies had already established him as favorite. He had ono draw back, however, erd that was his awk- wardness when on horse g back. Nat urally his position required the opposite of this, and Patrick worked hard and faithfully to acquire the case and natu- ralness Of his comrades when riding He congratulated himself that this was at last accomplished. But one day when on parade his horse shied and threw him with considerable force. When he re- gained consciousness, he found that his arn. had been broken with the fall. With his usual characteristic good humcr tho poor fellow smiled in his pain us he said:
 Well, well, it's too bad thought I had improved i'll my riding great deal, but instead have fallen off - Harper's Round Table.

NEW PUNCTUATION MARK.
A Badly Needed Invention Suggested by
 the Caustie Copy Reader.

Badly Needed Invention Suggested by
 the Caustie Copy Reader.
 ''I shall be famous I have an idea that will send my name laundering down through the ages, remarked the copy reader.
 sHumphi' replied the humorist. "It will be the first idea you have ever had. You spend most of your time destroying the good ideas of others D
 We'll, that may be, although you never have any idea to destroy, seeing that you get those which you have from Joe Miller's jokebook and the old al manacs.
 "Oh, we'll, let's have your ideal"
 To tell the truth, it was suggested to me by you. y
 .Ahl thought us much, and yet you say''-
 Don't be in too big a hurry. You haven't heard my idea. ,
 What is it?"
 'I have invented punctuation mark for humor It is intended to show the reader where to laugh In olden times, you know, the point of the joke used to be printed in italics. Nowadays there is no way to show tho point, and, as many of the jokes, such as yours, have no point, it is impossible to print the point in italics. Now, Suggest that punctuation mark be placed at the be- ginning and at the end of everything supposed to be funny, so that the reader may be prepared to laugh when he be- gins 10 read and know when be has reached the point and it is time to laugh. I would suggest that the mark be two little squares placed above the line, and l shall call 1t by my name. What do you think of that for an ideal It was suggested by your stuff, as told you. ,
 But the humorist had given the copy reader a look of scorn and had vanished. Chicago Times Herald.

FRENCH JOURNALS.
Shares of Several Bought and Sold Daily

on the Stock Exchange.
 Most of the French journals have-a salle de depeches, wherc bulletins are displayed and museum of relics of the paper is kept. French journalism is much more personal in regard to it's lit erary composition than that of England or America. A large proportion of the articles are signed with the names of the writers, even when the work is more or less of a routine nature, such as the sporting or law departments of the paper On the other hand, the own ership of newspapers Is less frequently lodged in single hands than is the case in America Very many of the French papers are owned by companies or asso- citations, while the stock of several of the best known. such as The Figaro and Petit Journal, is bought and sold daily on the Stock Exchange, the quotations appearing as regularly as those of rail- way shares or Government bonds.
 The circulation of all but n very few of the Paris papers varies enormously, according to the contents. If a paper contains striking article, well adver- tised previously, or if its feuilleton, con- tinued story or memoirs, which most of the French journals consider an essen tial part of their daily issue, is by some we'll known author, the circulation will run up 90, 000 or 100, 900 in . week and drop again as soon as the special feature is discontinued When Le Jour began publishing M. Henri Roehefort's 8 memoirs, its circulation went up five fold, although the price of the paper bad been doubled in order to make hay while the sun shone.
 The French press is much more con- centrated ill the capital than that of other European countries. In Germany, for instance, it is not the press of Berlin that has the largest circulation or the greatest influence. h this, as i'll many other matters, however, the French press only bears out the saying that Paris is France.
