We walked all over the orchard

should and the three varieties

We saw Duchess apples that

Thus fully have we stated our
observations which were made.
not when VIC were striving 10 fail
to see apples but when we wished
TO find out speedily. how all the
varieties averaged. Our report
is very easily verified by anyone
who IS willing to take the trouble

All this season Grand Junet on
people have been telling visitors
who inquired about Delta county,
that there were no apples or
peaches here They have talked
about the frost overtime. and in
every conceivable way have tried
TO dwarf their own misfortune by
pointing an historical finger at
some adjacent point. 1t is true
that the entire slope. indeed the
entire United States, suffered
from the extraordinary weather
conditions. The western slope as
a whole is very short on peaches
and has not full crop of apples.
But thus county is as favorably
fixed in the way of a crop as any

item IN he GunnIson News Cnam
pion to the effect that an Official
OF the state h ID gone to Irwin to
commence the work of building
the state road down Anthracite.
ms calls to our mind another
step which must be taken to pen
up the country to the north and
east of Paonia. The government
has recently offered to put the
sum OF 81 500 INTO a road down
Hubbard creek to connect with
the regular county road at Bowie
II the people will donate a suffi
cient sum, estimated at S775. to
complete the road.
Ii IS now ample time to think
seriously OF o ening up this vast
territory and making it a con-
'rioutory country to Paonia. The
building ot the states road down
Anthracite will be a big step. The
construction of.a good road down
Hubbard will be another. There
are two or three short bits OF con-
Meeting road which will have to

We are informed that The
county OF Delta has through its
commissioners agreed to help in
the matter by giving some money

reserve road with the regular
county road at Bowie. We think
our people generally should loin
earnestly with the effort to make
pronounced success OF this road

But a week ago we made car

We made close scrutiny of all the
orchards passed in ride oil
twenty miles and saw none. There
might have been some frdIt on
the trees. We did not see it. If it
was there Mesa county has more
fruit than the three surrounding
counties and is proud of the fact
that fruit is less liable TO be killed
by frost IN this county than any
other western slope counties

We were advised in advance as
to what part OF Delta county Bro.
Bunting visited. He was on his way
to the Grand mesa for a fishing
trip and along the ro'd travelled
there was not the very best chlnce
TO see fruit. still he passed heavily
loaded trees. and how he failed to
see them Is beyond our compre-
hcnsion. Some time in the pas,
we read a few lines OF poetry ad-
dressed apparently TO those who
will not see and understand. 1t

Samuel Wade in the days when
fruit growing was a matter of
speculation and where every va

this place a year ago and has been
working hard to put the place in
