In addition to a rather large aggre-
gate investment purchases which have
been made in the market in the last
three months, we must conclude that
the stock market generally is in strong
hands, from which partial dislodgement
is not likely in the immediate future.
This, however, only involves the techni-
cal condition of the market which APP
pears strong enough at the time and in
the absence of some paramount cause
for depression, we may hope for its
continuance. During the new two
weeks financial preparations for inter
est and dividend payments on July 1st
in conjunction with high Sterling rates
may disturb the security list.

A resumption of dullness, with mar
row trading conditions Influenced some
steadiness today, more as d result of
technical conditions, than a general
change in sentiment. Offerings were
light, and somewhat more favorable,
foreign advices, with fairly good crop
reports, were among the news items.
Call money hardened somewhat and the
banks made a further loss through sub
treasury operations of about $1,000. 900

to new high records, though no export
gold engagements were announced up

well preserved, and this development
being a feature of the situation on
several occasions recently when in

made the cause of favorable comment

Stocks may continue huetuating
within a narrow range for little
while longer, but unless Wall street is
going to shut up shop altogether. there
must soon be an improvement.-Ri dgley.
The whole street is bearish and not

leaders are heavily oversold, still prices
are predicted by conservative houses.

Calumet Region.

Architect Bump has prepared plans
for a fine new two story brick business
block that is to be constructed on
South Holman street at the corner OF
Clinton street.
The building will be Well built and
will cost in the neighborhood Of $4,000.
1t is understood that the hrst floor is
to be used for saloon purposes and
there Will be flats on the second floor.
The work Of construction will be be-
gun at once and the building will be
completed by fall. The property upon
which the building is To be built is
where the Morell fruis store was To-
Gated and is the lot from which the
wooden store building was moved to
the Hill property across the street.
1t is understood that several of the
owners of property within the business
district OF the city are contemplating
the erection of business blocks in the
near future.
For some time 1t appeared that while
there was a great demand for residence
property, there were more than enough
store rooms and consequently there
have not been many buildings of this
kind erected but now the demand is APP
parently greater than the supply and il
is expected that activity in the line Of

North Delta Canal Progressing.

Work on the North Delta Canal is
going along rapidly and its completion
during the early summer is assured.
During the month of April over 50, 500
was paid out for labor. The ditch is
carrying water from Tongue Creek for
a distance of two or three miles toward
Delta. This is done to soak up the
ground and improve the banks. Within
a month water will be brought all the
way from Tongue Creek to land lying
directly north of North Delta where
Mr.. Burnett has in ten acres of beets.
He will be able to secure water to take
care of his crop for the entire season
beginning about the first of June.
Down at the big tunnel above the
Tongue Creek bridge the boys are going
along rapidly with their work and
everything now favors completion of
the entire work by the first or middle
of August.
Delta people may be called upon to
take some stock later on in order to
secure funds with which to fully com
plete the task by the date decided on.
Within three years many who have
money lying idle in the banks of Delta
to-day will be telling others what they
could have bought North Delta Canal
stock for in 1907 and will be kicking
themselves for not being able to see
what splendid profit it meant to buy
it at that time at par. Did you ever
know of the completion of new ditch
where this was not true?

At meeting of the Business Mems
Assn. Monday night the matter of en-
ploying secretary who will devote his
entire time to the work of the Associa-
tion and be paid a regular salary for
his services, was discussed and decided
in favor OF such plan. In order to pro-
vide at least part of the increased ex-
pense, the dues were raised to so cents
per month. The matter of electing
some one to fiji this position will come
up for final action at the next regular
meeting. May 10.
A number of things were discussed
and deferred until later time for set
tIement. While attendance at this
meeting was not large it was full of
life and ginger and the spirit of "go
ahead was prevalent.

The writer recently had the pleasure
of tour of the fruit sections of Delta
COUNT with view of determining the
o'ltcome of the curly sprays applied
this spring against the various noXious
fruit tree pests.
During this survey so many things of
Importance were noted that brief re-
sumo of observations of the trip may
be of interest to the readers of the In
DEPENDENT.
The trip embraced weeks overland
journey upon which the following sec
tions were visited: Garnet mesa and
the valley of the lower Gunnison above
Delta. Austin, Cory and lower Surface
Creek. Eckert and Cedaredge, Cedar
and Paync's mesas; Hotchkiss and sur
roundngs including Rogers. Hanson
and Barrow mcsas; Paonia and adjacent
territory.
As rule orchartlmcn of the county
were found optimistic over the fruit
situation tho realizing that this sea-
sons harvest would be light. The
shortage of fruit will in no way dis
hearten the fruit growers, who are al
ready devoting their time to the best
possible care of the orchards and to the
growing of secondary annual crops
which will bring in no small returns.
The shortage Of fruit will allow grow
ers a better opportunity to give the
trees closer care and prepare them for
the production of an even higher grade
of fruit for next years crop.
Growers in the county deserve special
credit for the effective work done this
spring against the green and woolly
aphids which did such universal injury
last year. In all parts of the county
visited the lime and sulphur prepara
tions had been used against the green
aphis and it is evident everywhere that
it has proven eFectual wherever used
A number of cases were
found where all parts of the young
trees or gratis were not covered with
the spray and fewer number had re-

ceived no treatment at all Upon these
orchards many aphids were found
hatched ard now beginning to curl up
within tie leaves. For these it will be
necessary to apply Il kerosene emulsion
spray contaiEing abont per cent oil or
strong tobacco decoctions. The lime
and sulphur washes have been also
partially effective against the woolly
aphis. Where thoroughly applied they
have reduced the number of aphids up
on twigs and tree trunks to percepti-
BILE degree.
Soluble oil sprays which could be
made to mix completely with water
without danger of separation also gave
splendid results, the oil penetrating the
wooily secretion of the aphids readily.
Some later spraying will be required in
cases where the aphids make their api
pearance in numbers upon twigs or
trunk scars above the ground.
That general and concerted CAM
paign against these insect parasites
will result in Il lessening of the damage
done by them is already apparent.
A queer colored aphs found curling
the leaves of peach was found in places
doing considerable damage for the first
time this year. Fruit men should also
be on the alert for the black peach
aphis which has made its appearance
this year in both Delta and Mesa coun-
ties. 1t is a pest of the peach of first
Importance and Should be stamped out
of our peach orchards without delay.
Fortunately its distribution in Delta
county is limited to small areas When
discovered it should be promptly re-
ported to your county horticultural in
spcctor. There is likelihood that the
codling moth sprays will be omitted
upon many orchards from lack of fruit
to protect but where there is prospect
for even small apple harvest our ar
senical sprays should be given. Delta
cannot afford to allow even
small crop of apples to mature wormy.
There is too much at stake for succeed
ing years.
