PROSPECTS GOOD FOR
LARGE FRUIT CROP

Seldom, IL ever before in the history
dications for big fruit crop been so
promising as they are at present, and
orchardists and gardeners are looking
forward to a year of exceptional pros
perity. A warm winter has been sue
ceeded by an early spring and all
kinds of vegetation have received a
stimulus In consequence of the COM
bination of favoring conditions that
assures satisfactory returns at har-
vest time. provided. of course. that
no unforeseen contingencies arise to
blight the prospect
Orchardists are this year likely to
be confronted with too much. rather
than of too little fruit. particularly OF
apples, which are the main source of
the ranchers' income. II prodignl-
ity OF bloom may be accepted AZ an
index of a big crop OF fruit orchard
lists in the Canon City district may
be congratulated in advance upon an
unusually generous harvest. for never
before was the outlook quite so good
as II is now.
There will be peaches. pears, plums.

berries, gooseberries and currants ga

treasures of Pomona this year, unless
late frost should destroy our hopes
which is not probable in view of the
advanced state of the season. The
prospect held out to the Canon City
fruitgrower is certainly most alluring
and should more than ever make him
contented with the blessings and COM
pensations OF his calling.

BUSINESS MEN FAVOR
new WATER SUPPLY

The special committee appointed
severaltmonths ago by the Canon City
Merchants Association to investigate
the matter of a new source of water
supply for the city filed its final re-
port to the association last Monday
night. After having made thorough
canvass of the subject the committee
appears to be convinced that an ade-
quate supply of pure water is among
the possibilities for Canon City and il
recommends the employment of a
competent hydraulic engineer to go
over the territory adjacent to the city
and ascertain where sufncient vol
ume of clear. soft water can be best
obtained. The committee suggests
that the association act in conjunction
with the city council in the matter and
that the expense of procuring an en-
gineer to continue the Investigations
be borne Jointly.

believing that there is combination
OF fortuitous circumstances back of
Canon City's worth that can hardly
be duplicated elsewhere in the Rocky

tons OF climate, soil and accessible

particularly desirable and IS the basis
of our prosperity.
Every year people are more and
more coming to the belief that Colora-
do is one of the most attractive sec
tons of the country in which to live
and that the Arkansas valley is one
OF the most alluring and seductive
parts OF the state. There are reasons
for this opinion that It is not necessa-
ry to recount here. suffice 1t to say
that It is drawing people here from
the east to make their home with an
irresistible force.
A community that can readily dis
pose of It's agricultural lands at from
I'VE to eight hundred dollars an acre
must have some allurements. as peo-
pie are not naturally inclined to in
vest their money in unworthy or un-
remunerative enterprises. That pro-
perty owners are able to obtain hand
some returns on their lan'ed invest
ments as they do here despite the
great value of the soil is conclusive
evidence that the community has as

PUEBLOANS VISIT THE
ROYAL GORGE SUNDAY

The first excursion of the season
over the Denver Rio Grande road
was run from Pueblo through the
Royal Gorge to Parkdale and return
last Sunday. The train was compos-
ed of three coaches and arrived here
at IL O'Clock, a few minutes before
the F. & C. c. train pulled into the
depot from Cripple Greek and Victor
many of its passengers making the
trip through the Gorge. A stop was
made at the Hanging Bridge to allow
those who desired to do so an oppor-
tunity to get of and admire the mag
nificent scenery at that point Most
of the excursionists remained there
until the return of the train from
Parkdale an hour and a half later. 1t
was a pleasant occasion and those
who made the trip were given
chance to see one of the greatest
scenic attractions of the Rocky mount
aims.
The train reached Canon City short
ly after o'clock on the homeward
journey. 1t is expected that these ex-
cursions will be frequent during the
summer months.

Pueblo was present and addressed
the members in the interest of a san
itarium which he is desirous of estab-
fishing here, provided the citizens will
donate forty acres of land upon which
to erect the necessary buildings DR..
Bullette's proposition. which includes
the establishment of chain of sani-

continent. has the endorsement of DIR.
Osler, late. of Johns Hopkins Univer-
sity. Baltimore. Maryland; DR.. Jacoby
OF New York City, DR.. ingalls, of Chi
cago. and others equally prominent
in medical science. 1t is contended
by DR.. Bullette that a series of sani-
tariums would be successful for the
reason that no locality is adapted for
the cure of all diseases, and that If
a patient was not benefited at one
place in the chain he would be at an
other, as at no two of them he would
have exactly the same climate, alti-
tude or environment
DR.. Bullette created favorable i'm
preston among the members of the

prise. which, as we have already stat
ed, has back of II the endorsement OF

The Institution which DR.. Bullette is

100000 in deposits since January.
A bank is more than a private en-

that has more to do with the welfare
of the community and stability of the
commercial world than any other con-
cern. For this reason it is gratifying
especially at this time to note the
prosperity and growth of this institu-
ton 1t not only speaks well for the
management of the bank but it also
indicates a live and prosperous COM

Mr.. Reynolds always predicted that

his bank would be stronger after his
death than before, and this statement
together with other indications proves
that no one has for minute doubted
the wisdom of his plans.
