the farmers and fruit men In that dis'
trict will easily amount to $1,00O'0Oo.
Other losses occurred In various parts

mot vet been definitely determined.

the heavy frost Of April 20. 1907, which
resulted in severe losses In many parts

Denver.-A dispatch from Montrose
Sunday night says: The mercury
dropped to twenty-three degrees above
zero last night, according to the gov.
ernment thermometers, and the
peaches were considerably damaged,
as were also the raspberies and apri.

any. 1t was not believed early last night
that the weather would turn SO cold
and but few took the precaution to
smudge. The blossoms on the trees
are so thick that 1t is thought the dam
age will only be slight unless the heavy
frosts continue. All fruitmen are out
