The Cantaloupe Season, Present and
Prospective.

A few weeks since when County Clerk
Garwood was inspecting the fields OF one
Of our cantaloure growers he suggested
that it would be good plan If every as
sooiation in the valley would send one
crate Of oantaloupes each day to Senator
Swink for the Colorado exhibit at St.
Louis. The idea is good one. and. II
adopted, will keep the famous Rocky Ford
Melted Gem constantly before that large
part Of the world new sightseeing at st.
Louis. One association has already
adopted the plan. and others, doubtless,
will readily see the propriety of so doing.
Young g. Mathis began the shipment Of
cantaloupes May 26th from Ocalla, Flor
ida. and'have shipped every day since.
except Sunday. Mr.. Mathis says that
his Sunday cantaloupe work only be-
gins when he strikes Rocky Ford. Why
is it that Sunday handling Of cantaoupes
is dispensed with in the South, but the
whole seven days must be devoted to the
business in Colorado.

held in the Presbyterian church Thursday
evening, August %. The members Of
class are: Mrs. Letha Tisdale. Mrs. M.
M. Nelson, Messrs. Richie. Henry. Kline
felter and Burke. all of Rocky Ford. and
Mr.. Hedgcook of Fowler. If all are
present it will probably be the largest
gold medal class in the state. which
speaks well for Rocky Ford oratory.
The contest superintendents wish to
urge all members to be on hand not later
than 8 o'clock that places on the program
may be chosen by lot" There seems to
be general dislike to giving the first

will assist. A completed program will be
given later.

Remonstrance Against the p: :op Scd
Sewer Syste

The rcmonstrance against the proposed
sewer system. which has been prepared
for presentation to the city council, reads
as follows:
We, the undersigned. owners OF lots in
in Sewer District No. |. town of Rocky
Ford, recognizing the value and impor-
tance Of a good system Of sewerage for
the town. would however question the
water supply requisite on so low grade
to properly flush them. to improve or even
make as good sanitary conditions as there
are at present.
Having also doubts of the ability of
most Of the lot owners in sad district 10
meet the heavy tax to sewer so large
territory. with no greater ropul ation than
we have at present and under the strained
financial conditions of the town; we there
fore. enter our protest against carrying
out the proposed system of sewerage at
the present time in sewer district No.
submitted to lot owners in said district,
July |, 1904.
Tho petition is signed by lz5 citizcns.
