Some stock exchange interests which
have watched recent transactions close
ly believe that the short account is
more extended than it has been for
some weeks. They are inclined to be-
lieve that the covering movement which
set in shortly before the close yester-
day viii be carried further during the
early trading in our market today. They
would not be surprised to see the &C
tive list recover from to 8 points.
They do not think, however. that the
higher prices Will be long maintained
and would not be at all surprised to
see another sharp break next week.

Credit To Douthitt.

In the wonderful record made by Del
Ia county beet growers during 1906 a
good. big bunch of credit is due Field
Sup't. J. w. Douthitt for the sensible
and practical guidance he has given
those interested in the industry. Mr..
Douthitt has been careful and thought
full IN his work and has endeavored TO
make it possible for all to succeed and
secure satisfactory results. He has
not worked so much for large acreage,
but for large yield. He has advised
farmers not to plant beets unless they
were surrounded by conditions that
would insure success. Mr.. Donthitt is
the right mAn in the right place and he
Is valuable. not only TO his employers,
but to the county as well and the peo.
pie Of Delta county owe him debt Of
gratitude for the wise manner in which
he has conducted his work.

To Organize Water Users Assn.

A plan is on foot to organize wha,
will probably be called The Surface
Creek Water Users Assn. combining
all the different reservoir companies
under one management. II is simply a
plan AS yet, but If the idea works itself
into definite form and becomes reality
it will undoubtedly prove of great ben
eft and source of economy both in
water and expense to the different res
crvoir companies. The INDEPENDENT
will report such development of the
project rs may occur.
LATER-A mass meeting was held at
the court house Wednesday afternoon
following the Short Course session and
was attended by many stock holders in
different Surface Creek reservoir COM
panics. DIR. A. K. Miller acted as chair
man. 1t was the unanimous decision
of the meeting to form an organization
such rs is described above and the fol-
lowing committee appointed to arrange
plan for submission to the different
companies: II. X. Ferguson. II. w.

We Are All Disappointed.

The statement in last weeks issue
that W. P. Dale had been appointed as
a member of the Board of Control of
the Agricultural College proved to be
erroneous. 1t was founded on report
published in the Denver Post. The
first of this week Gov. Buchtel ap-
pointed ex-Lieut. Gov. J. l.. Brush. of
Greeley and Congressman Brooks. of
Colorado Springs. MIR. Dale had the
solid backing of the Western Slope and
in fact was endorsed py the strongest
constituency of any candidate under
consideration and he would undoubtedly
have been appointed but for one unfor-
tunate circumstance which is explained
as follows: The present Board of Con-
troll have become divided into two fac
tions. Without solicitation one of these
factions was backing Mr.. Dale. Gov.
Buchtel decided to put aside all recon-
mendations and of his own initiative
appoint men of his personal choosing,
no mention of whose names had been
made by the purported contending fac
tions. This he did.
Mr. Dale's friends are severely DIS
appointed. Knowing him they realize
the Governors error in assuming that
he might affiliate with faction as a
member of the Board. Contrasting his
fitness and efficiency with that Of Mr..
Brush the Governor s mistake is all the
more apparent, but in the absence Of
information beyond the above explana-
ton to Delta citizen, we must neces-
sarily give the Governor credit for
proper intentions.

Many subscribers have called the
past two weeks to pay their subscrip-
tion and almost invariably made it a
year in advance. Kind words have been
expressed in behalf Of the paper which
makes the editor feel that hard work
in serving constituency is not in vain.
We are grateful for this encourage
ment and with more extended acquaint-
ancc hope to give you still better
paper. We can take care of this sub
scription money to good advantage and
all who wish to square arrears and put
their peg up year hence have our un-
qualified consent.

DOMESTIC SCIENCE.

The men have not monopollZcd the
entire week by any means. At the Odd
Fellows hall the domestic science class.
comprising over 20 ladies'. have met
each afternoon and listened to the lect-
ures of Miss Ammons which she has il
lustrated by practical demonstrations
in cooking on the range. Miss Ammons
Is ably assisted by Miss Netf and their
work here this week has proven of
much interest and great value. Those
attending the course are rs follows:

LETTERS Ranch Not Sold.

Negotiations were on couple Of
weeks ago whereby the Jeifers ranch
on lower Surface Creek was to change
hands at $4,000. Altho this was ar
increase Of $1,000 in value within q
year, MIR. Jeifcrs was not anxious to
sell and really felt bad to think that he
was about to part with place that he
believes will be worth considerable
more than that amount within few
years. Luckily for him the parties
backed out and IL il safe to say no one
else will get chance at that ranch for
tho same figure.

Delta county has scored again. The
Horticultural Short Course is a great
big success. Over 100 substantial farm
ers and fruit growers have been enrolled
as students and have attended the ses-
sions with persistence and good atten-
ton. The College professors have been
earnest and sincere in their labors, have
covered every subject as fully as time
would permit and a vast amount of val
liable and vital knowledge has been
given out and absorbed. 1t has been a
wonderful week for Delta and the en-
tire county and the benefit will be ap-
parent for years to come.
1t is not within the province of local
paper to report in detail the lectures
and discussions that have taken place
in this school. 1t would require the
constant attendance of a reporter at
each session and the ground covered
would fill every page of a paper this
size, advertisements eliminated. Much
as we would wish to cover the ground
gone over during the week Il = out Of
the question and those who reap the
benefit of such schools must do it by
personal attendance.
We have not heard word of COM
plant from anyone attending: all has
been praise. 1t has not only been a
week of earnest desire to impart knowl-
edge and an equally earnest desire to
absorb it, but week of good fellowship
AS well. The evening lectures have
been largely attended: people have
mingled together and become better ac-
quainted with one another: those from
Paonia and Hotchkiss in the North Fork
country. and those from Cedaredge and
the entire Surface Greek country have
become better acquainted with we of
the Uncompahgre and Gunnison valley
and the bounding mcsas. California and
Garnet. Citizens from different parts
of the county understand or another
bctecr and realize to greater degree
than ever before that our interests are
Identical

EVENING LECTURES.

The first lecture of the course was
given Monday evening. Dr. Barton O.
Aylesworth spoke from the subject "A
Good Citizen" to an audience that
completely filled the ball room of the
Odd Fellows hall. The high school
orchestra furnished music and W. P.
Dale introduced the speaker. The ad-
dress was one that will long be remem-
bered by every one present. 1t was
thoughtful. broad. suggestive, comprc-
hensive and will make better citizens
of all who endeavor to follow the prin-
ciples Of good citizenship promulgated.
Tuesday evening Col. Tuttle, of Den
yer. delighted another large audience
with a patriotic lecture entitled. Paul
Jones and the American Flag" The
lecturer was introduced by DR.. barley
who, years ago, was u neighbor and
friend Of Col. Tuttle in the capitol city.
Wednesday evening, Miss Theodosia
Anmons was greeted by an audience
which packed every available inch of
space in the large hall to listen to her
lecture from the subject, what to Eat
and Kitchen Environment. Miss Am
mons has been conducting class of
over SO ladies' in Domestic Science dur
ing the week and her admirers with
their friends and a large representation
of men felt sure that she would give a
delightful discourse. T. X. Seaton pre-
sided and introduced Miss Ammons as
a lady he had known for many years
and for whom he. as well rs all who
had personal knowledge of her work at
the College, held in the highest esteem.
It is safe to say no lecture of the week
has proven more popular.

Guests were properly received at the
door and made welcome by committee
of ladies and gentlemen. Social con-
versation and general good fellowship
was INDUCED in between the hours Of
eight ard nine o'clock while the high
school orchestra rendered good music
that was enjoyed and appreciated, -
manifested by generous applause.
Promptly at nine O'Clock order was
requested that a short program might
be carried out prior to serving refresh
ments. DR.. barley was introduced and
responded with a characteristic talk
that kept everybody roaring with
laughter. There are few better enter
tainers than DR.. barley. Something
good is anticipated when he is intro
duced and he never disappoints. The
high school quintette followed with .
selection which brought forth hesysI
encore and to which the boys gracefully
responded. Prof. Gillette spoke briefly
as did w. H. Burnett and w. r. Dale.
These short addresses were interspersed
with duet rendered by Miss Croxton
and Mrs. Carr, also two numbers from
the male quartette composed of Messrs.
Arthur. Jeffers, Wolbert and Pregent
These musical numbers were enthusi-
astically encored.
At the close Of the regular program
Prof. Paddock was presented with a
beautiful clock by his friends and ad-
mirers who desired in some way to man
ifes: their appreciation of his interest
and thoughtfulness in behalf of the
horticultural interests of this part OF
the state. The presentation address
was delivered by G. H. Merr- mt. Of
Paonia and to which Prof. Paddock
made fitting response. 1t was the
intention to give Prof. Paddock a loving
cup, but this plan was necessarily aban-
doned on account of the committees in
ability to get it in time.
Following the exercises referred to
above refreshments were served in the
dining hall consisting of minced ham
sandwiches. salad. coffee. ice cream and
cake. While the first table was being
served dancing progressed in the ball
room and continued for an hour after
midnight.
The reception was thoroly enjoyed by
$50 people and for its successful cui-
mination the Business Mems Assn. is
deserving of much credit.
