Hon. ]. n. Crowley Talks
Fruit and Pueblo Fair.

Hon. j. II. Crowley. OF the
Fairview Orchards, adjacent to
Rocky Ford. was . county seat
visitor Thursday. aud left some OF
his surplus cash with the county
treasurer to pay for the privilege
OF being on earth during the year
1900. Mr.. Crowley il very en-
thusiastic concerning crop condi.
tions In the Arkansas Valley. and
says the present year will be the
best for farm products OF ell kinds
ever known. both in quality and
quantity, and that prices were
never better. &
Mr.. Crowley appeared TO be in
very good spirits, considering the
fact that his orchard was damaged
10 the extent Of about 81 900 by .
hail storm last week. He saws
that between 500 aud 5000
bushels of apples are lying on the
ground at Fairview. aud evidence
Of the damage done to apples
still ON the trees is becoming more
marked each day. He estimates
that about oue-half OF his crop
was ruined. The apple crop in
the eastern aud middle states will
bc small. and the market price
will bs corrcspondinely high. be.
ing now in the ncighborhood of
100 per barrel. Mr.. Crowley
says that he has already received
over $3.50 in cash for crops grown
this year Mt Fairview and the
marketing season has barely COM
menced ns yet. He marketed his
first tomatoes July 9Th, aud sold
Si5 worth before any OF the home
grown product was offered for
sale.
Mr.. Crowley il anxious to see
Otero county make a creditable
display Of fruit and garden truck
nt the state fair to be held in Pue.
bio during the week commencing
September 23d. and says that il
win be one Of the best investments
in advertising our resources that
could be made. II tho fruit
growers and farmers take an inter.
est In making q irst.class exhibit,
Otero county will have a splendid
chance Of capturing the 800 prize
offered for the best county exhibi-
tors. The Otero county commits
sioners lave also promised to
make a donation Of $50 or more to
be offered premiums to exhibitors.
II every grower in Otero coun-
ty would select six apples, SIX
peaches, six tomatoes, or samples
Of farm, orchard or garden pro-
ducts, place them ON plates and
send them to Pueblo, a very cred
table county exhibit could be
made. Exhibits may be sent to
Pueblo at any time. addressed to
the Mountain Ice Company, where
they will be kept IN cold storage
until the fair opens in September.

accidentally set on fire by some fellow
who was stealing tools. Others say that
it was clear case Of incendiarvism. II

convict the culprit.
