MARKET FOR WINDFALL APPLES

Few realize the benefit the fruit
growers have received this year from
the marketing of the windfall apples
at zoe per hundred pounds. This means
30c per box, net, without the cost of
the box, the packing and several other
items of expense. Heretofore this
stock has been a dead loss and the
price received is pretty nearly what
the same grade has brought in boxes
every year. For the most part, the ap
pies which have been blown off have
been the wormy and damaged portions
of the crop, and this will leave the
fancy stock to be picked and marketed
at less expense than usual. In some
orchards the wind took off a great deal
of fine fruit and in such the loss has
been heavy; but to many the opportun-
ity to clean the ground under the trees
has been great boon. This is just
what organization does for the fruit
grower if properly managed and when
the figures are given out everybody will
be surprised at the amount of money
received for this damaged fruit.
Nine cars of windfalls were shipped
to Canon City, three cars to Denver,
and three cars to Paonia fifteen cars
in all, amounting to 100000 pounds

RUED1 COMES TO THE FRONT.

The first shipment Of plaster from
the big plant at Ruedi was made Mon
day.
Within what might be called hail.
ing distance of Glenwood Springs are
located the finest beds of gypsum and
marble in the world. The gypsum is at
Ruedi, the marble at Marble. and both
products have been declared by sci
entists to have no superior as far as
quality is concerned in the whole
world. And the quantity is there. 1t
is unlimited, and thousand years
| hence, it is said, men will be busy in
these quarries and the railroads will
carry the products to the great cities
of the United States and far across the
seas.
The plaster plant represents big
outlay of capital. The plant is con
structed of steel and within q ver-
short time work will be done by three
shifts instead of one As at present.
These enterprises are but the begin
ming. When tho work laid out by the
Central Colorado Power company is
completed a tremendous impetus will
have been gwen to manufacturing en-
terprises in these mountains and then
! will come the dawn of a new era for
the West. Millions of eastern capital
will roll westward to increase the
wealth, add to the population and i'm
portance of Colorado, and the whir of
the wheels of industry will be as music
to the ears of an energetic and happy
people.

There is, no doubt, very strong
feeling along the Pacific coast in Can

against the immigration of Asiatics,
whether they be Chinese, Hindus or
Japanese. 1t is feeling into which
many elements enter. Many good citi-

growth of this alien immigration would
ultimately defeat the development of
Canada into "white man 3 country
That is an object which we all have in
view. Englishmen, quite as earnestly
as Canadians, would condemn any pol
icy which really threatened to make
this great possession of our fellow sub

however, far from evident that any
Asiatic immigration which is at all
likely to take place would endanger the
realization OF this object; and it is
manifest that most of the agitation

Church Entertainment will &c Given
in the 0pera House Tuesday Niehf.

The local talent entertainment, the
Garrett County Fair, to be given in the
Opera House May 9TH, for the benefit
of the Episcopal church, will be the
finest and most interesting entertain
ment ever given in Oakland. This will
be real County Fair with pumpkins,
potatoes and cabbage on display and
real bicycle races, horse races and pig
races. Plenty of fakirs will be there
with their gold bricks and side shows.
A real wild man and fat lady. In fact
there will be attractions finer and great
er than anything ever before seen in
Garrett County. Advertisements have
been sent into all neighboring towns
and counties and it is likely there will
be an unusual crowd in attendance. At
any rate Jake Sprucely and his wife
have sent word they will be on hand
and as they are related to half the peo-
pie of Garrett county, the Sprucely
family will likely have reunion right
IN the fair grounds. Parson Briggs will
be out to look after his flock and keep
them from the temptations which are
bound to lie in their paths on an occa-
sion of this kind.
