A STATE OF
ORCHARDS
WYOMING APPLES AS FINE AS
ANY THAT ARE GROWN IN
THE EFFETE EAST.
Prof. Nelson, After a Tour of lnspec-
ton of Orchards and Nurseries in
Northern and Central Sections of
State, reports Wyoming a Great
Fruit Raiser.

Prof. Aven Nelson, who returned a
day or two ago from a five weeks trip,
spent for the most part in examining
the orchards and nurseries of the part
of the state which he visited, returns
filled with enthusiasm over the pos
sibilities Of Wyoming as an apple
producer. Prof. Nelson's jaunt COW
cred Weston, Crook, Johnson, Sher-
idan, Big Horn, Fremont and Lar
annie counties. OF the five nurseries
he examined he found all making good
progress, and they will soon be ready
to do business in supplying standard
apple stock. AS a whole the orchards
are in pretty good condition, there be-
ing blight in but two counties, John
son and Sheridan.
The apple crop will be particularly
heavy in Fremont county. 1t is in this
county that Mr.. Young's almost world
famed apple orchard is found. Mr..
Young has about 1000 trees, all loaded
down with fruit, and the most Of
them to such an extent that they have
to be propped up with sticks and two
by tours. They are actually weight
ed to the ground, and will bear as
high as fifteen bushels to the tree,
while a tree bearing ten bushels is not
at all out of the ordinary. Prof. Mel
son says that he never saw such ap-
pies, no not even in Missouri, or the
other favored spots of this universe.
Mr.. Young is rejoicing owe the near
approach of the railroad, which will
afford him a market and outlet for
his crop Last year, with only Lander
and the surrounding country to sup
ply, he swamped the market, and SO
plentiful was the fruit that 1t actually
had to be thrown away.
The professor encountered a mum,
Der of prospective students for the
University and found everywhere a
growing sentiment towards Wyo-
ming's great educational institution.
Like all of the professors who go forth
from here. he never failed to put in
a good word for the institution when
ever an opportunity arose to do so.

LOCAL BASEBALL FANS

In a very interesting game yesterday
afternoon on the grounds beyond the
city park the local baseball team de-
feated the Cheyenne team by a score
of Is to Il. There was a good at
tendance of spectators and consider
able enthusiasm manifested, and, al
though the score might indicate a
somewhat close game, yet at no time
was there n doubt as to the issue.
and the Laramieites might have run
up a much larger score in the ninth
inning. Chase pitched a good game
for the home team, at all times keep
ing his head. The star player of the
team, however, was E. Winfield, who,
after firing a passenger engine infrom
Rawlins, went right out to the grounds
and put up as clean and pretty a
game as anyone could wish to see.
Crowley, the Cheyenne pitcher, was
easily found n batted all over the
field, three-baggers being the rule rath-
er than the exception. An Omaha trav-
cling man acted as umpire and gave
the best of satisfaction.
