LITTLE DANGER
FROM THE FROSTS
Never in the History Of the Grand Valley and Western
Colorado Was the Fruit Outlook SO Promising--Re.
cord Breaking Crops Assured Conditions IDEAL

That the Western slope will this
year produce the banner crop of its
history is the emphatic opinion of
Lieut. Gov. e. r. Harper, who re-
turned yesterday from an extended
trip through that section of the
state says Saturdays Denver Repub-
lican. Never before has the outlook
been 30 encouraging at this time of
the year. and never before has there
been so complete an absence of cause
of apprehension regarding possibility
of damage from exterior causes, is
the declaration of this authority.
The unusually open winter on this
side OF the range has caused many to
fear that damage from frost might
again be sustained. Warm weather
last year started the buds early, and
1t was repetition of these condi-
tions that was feared. Harper says
that there are no indications what
ever of budding at the present time.
and that 1t Is now too late for dam
age from that source. The trees
could not now by any possibility ad-
vance far enough to be caught by
any but very late and severe frost
in fact. only by frost as late as
June. Such contingency. 1t is
needless to state, is exceedingly re-
mote. This time last year the fruit
trees in that section of the state
were fully in bloom. It was, there
fore, to have been expected that they
would not escape the frost. But the
fact that they have not yet shown
any indication of budding is taken
as assurance that this year they will
escape the frost calamity entirely.
The lieutenant governors trip has
been one of several weeks duration,
during which he visited, In connec-
ton with the short term" educa-
tional work of the State Agricultural
college, the cities of Rifle, Aspen,
Mesa and Canon City. This work,
he declares. has been successful be-
yond all anticipation. At each of
these places "short term" courses
were held. and the attendance was
beyond precedent, while the entries
for next year have been, in many
cases, greater than the contemplated
resources of the institute manage
ment. AS an indication of the gen.
eral interest manifested everywhere
in this work It was cited that at
Aspen. district that has generally
been considered as almost exclusive
ly mining. there were nearly $50
entries for the courses this year,
nearly half of which were women for
the domestic science department
The. farmers about Aspen are pro-
