The Delta independent., 1906-12-21

valley will make things grow to a de-
gree almost incomprehensible to the
farmer who does not irrigate. The
altitude between 5000 and 6, 900 feet
is little too great for the successful
raising of corn, tho it has been grown.
Small grains yield stupendous crops
and alfalfa is harvested three times a
year. All kinds of vegetables are at
their best here and bring top notch
prices. Wisconsin potatoes are equaled
If not beaten, and the famous Rocky
won out at the state fair over those
raised in the Rocky Ford district.
Poultry, honey and dairy products are
produced with perfect success.
But it is in fruit that the Uncompah-
gre valley eXcels all other sections
Apples of superior color and flavor are
shipped by the carload to distant mar
kets where they always command a
price a little better than any raised
elsewhere. The superiority OF the ap-
Piles is brought about by abundant SUM-
shine, a rich soil watered at just the
right time. careful cultivation, and
spraying to keep away the coddling
moths. The returns, whether the horti-
culturist markets his fruit or sells his
orchard, are almost past the compre-
hension of man from Wisconsin. 1t
would make some of you dizzy if asked
to pay 81 500 an acre for a good bearing
orchard, yet some ranches have changed
hands at that figure. Elberta peaches,
too, are grown to an extent scarcely
less than that of apples, and prunes.
plums, cherries, pears, grapes. aprico,s
and ounces find this their natural home.
If you would know more about this
wonderful country, write to John T.
Burns, secretary of the Colorado State
| Commercial Association at Denver.
He has everything to tell you but moth
ing to sell.

FAIR LAND OF
APPLES AND GOLD.
VISITOR RETURNS HOME A BOOSTER
Wisconsin Man CsptNsted BY UneoM-
pshgre Valley. Calls Atten6oa To
Deita's Domestic Water Supply.

A. d. Dorsett of Baraboo, Wisconsin,
who visited Delta two weeks ago and
who will, undoubtedly, become citizen
here within a short time, on returning
to his home wrote an excellent article
of two columns for the Evening News,
paper Mr.. Dorsett has been part own
er of for number of years and which
he transfers to other hands the first of
January. Such articles as Mr.. Dorsett
published in his paper are sure to be of
great value to US and we take little
pride in saying that it was thru corre-
.pondencc with the INDEPENDENT and
literature we sent him that he first be-
came interested in this part of the
world. Following is a part of the ar
ticle referred to:
"The stranger is welcome in Colo
RADIO. Big letters of electricity say SO
at the Denver gateway, he is given the
hospitable hand wherever he goes, and
at no time is there a suspicion that
that hand is reaching for his pocket.
| The Co oradoan is too big, too generous
and has too much gold of his own to DO
that. Colorado wants more people,
lots of people to come and build homes
and help develop the magnificent re-
sources possessed by the state.
Al the foot of the valley where the
Gunnison and the Uncompahgre blend
their waters. lies Delta, most fortu-
| nately situated for future commercial
possibilities. The famous North Fork
valley, one of the most productive
bodies of land in the world, also lies
tributary to this city. Just across the
Gunnison is North Delta where live Mr..
and Mrs. Charles johnson, with whom
| had most delightful visit. Mrs.
johnson is sister of Mrs. Hugh Kelley
and recalled many pleasant incidents OF
ons is a garden spot where each family
cultiyates few acres of land. All
kinds of vegetables and small fruits are
raised and shipped to the mountain
mining cities, where fabulous prices
are received. Strawberries have been
known to net their raisers 800 per
acre.
Delta is fortunate in the possession
of absolutely pure drinking water which
| is piped from springs at Grand Mesa
| fifteen miles away. In this respect she
has strong drawing card that some OF
her neighbors do not possess, and an
| item to be carefully considered by those
who would avoid danger of typhoid
fever.
The territory tributary to Delta pro.
duces thousands Of tons OF sugar beets
Of superior quality, and with down
hill haul from every direction, Delta
expects to have q million dollar sugar
factory in operation within two years.
There arc unlimited possibilities for
this fine little city of 2, 500 people il her
business men will only put their shoul-
ders to the wheel and push.
Watered soil in the Uncompahgre
The Delta independent., 1906-12-21

E. C. Luce has returned from IT.
Morgan and bought the Morrow place
on Garnet mesa, consisting Of about
10 acres. He moves in this week. The
many friends of Mr. Luce and his fam
lily are glad to welcome them back to
Delta.
DR.. Tadlock, of Memphis, Mo-, was
in Delta, Tuesday. He is looking for
location for the practice of his profes-
sion and desires to come to Colorado Tor
the benefit of his wife's health. He
will visit Grand Junction and other
Western Slope towns before deciding
where to put out his shingle.
Now comes the season of discomfort,
when your body with chills is sorely
rent, your summers wages almost
spent, your winters song the ChumP's
lament. Alas! too soon, you will dis
cover, that troubled dreams of the low
ing lover. the fondling visions that in
fancy hover, is the result of your wife
swiping all the cover. .-Ex.
Marie Grandrup and Elsie Ault have
received fourth prize in the School Arts
Guild of the United States, a national
guild for all children taking drawing.
This makes them members of this guild.
This is the second prize Marie Grandrup
has won in this guild, as she entered
the contest last year. Eileen Schlapp
and Jay Scofeld received honorable
mention. They all intend trying for
first prize next year.
J. F. Snelson, whose farm is just
south of the Tongue creek bridge, is
laying 1900 feet of eight inch drain tile
thru low place on his beet land. Mr..
Snelson had fine crop of beets this
year and with the benefit his land will
derive from drainage he will probably
have better crop next year. Frank
Hoppe laid about 8, 3,O0) #. of four inch
tile on some of his land and it is run
ming full all of the time. Snelson
thought best to use larger size.
Archie Walker, who was for years a
resident of Delta county, having spent
