GRAND VALLEY
APPLES PRAISED
Denver Republican Gets Enthusiastic Over Our Great In
dustry--Tells About Werner Z. Reeds Immense Or
chard--"I Time Has Won Grand Valley Apples
All Manner Of Blue Ribbons"

yesterday in The Republican office
proved every apple as sound, as per-
feet. and richer. mellower and more
appetizing that if it had been freshly
picked from its home tree in the
Grand valley At this season of the
year, with the trees breaking their
buds for the new crop, to find an
apple in perfect condition is excep-
tional. 1t is the time of year when
such fruit ranks in the market as a
delicacy and brings prices in keep
ing with its rarity. Because it grows
the kind of apples that are as sound
in April as in October, irrigated land
in the Grand valley sells at prices
that makes one think of city corners.
Just the other day 100000 was paid
for a 10-acre orchard in the valley.
Mr.. Reed is going into the apple-rais-
ing business with the same enthus-
iasm that he enters upon everything
he undertakes for the upbuilding
of Colorado. The 800 acres in APP
pies will be planted with view to
the tree eventually standing 32 feet
apart, but for few years there will
be intermediary trees to be cut out
when they have begun to crowd the
space. The red and yellow Spear
Mains. for which the valley lands
are famous-finer fruit never bore
the name of apple-Ben Davis, Law
yer. Smiths Cider and other varie-
ties that have stood the test and for
which the Grand valley lands have
proved peculiarly adapted, will be
set out. 1t should make an orchard
that will spread the fame of Colo
RADIO to all the land and lead to an
extension of it's markets by calling
out innovations in packing and ship
ping the fruit. Grand Junction will
also be given fresh cause to congrat-
ulate itself over having won Mr.
Reed for a friend and builder

GREAT PROJECT
TO IRRIGATE BIG DISTRICT

10 Dulld an irrigation system r
= for 10000 acres of semi-arid r
+ land in the Naturita valley of +
+ Montrose and San Miguel coun- +
+ ties. the Empire Irrigation +
+ Company has sent four car +
+ to Norwood. +
Already the company has many
thousands of acres of land under
water in Naturita valley, with a sys-
tenn including large reservoir and
65 miles of canals and bitches. The
present bitches will be enlarged to
convey about double the quantity of
water now possible, rs miles of ca
nails and bitches will be added, and
reservoirs large enough to furnish a
seasons supply of water will be put
lin by the company during the comm 6
summer.
The four car loads of steam eXca-
vators and other machinery neces-
sary for the building of the bitches
and reservoirs will be followed this
week by four more car loads of sim
liar machinery, the, whole having a
capacity of 5000 cubic yards of dirt
each "a hours. The dredges and ex-
cavators are of the Fairbanks and
Austin make.
w. F. Cook. an engineer of many
years experience, is construction
manager of the company, and Geo.
Miller, formerly assistant city engin-
eer of Des Moines, Ia, is his assist
ant and acting engineer for the COM
pany They will go to Norwood dur
ing the present week, taking their
families with them.
In the belief of the company the
work will have progressed so far by
the end of the summer and fall sea-
son that many thousand additional
acres of land will he placed under
the bitches and that fully 10000
persons will be added to the popula-
ton of the valley.

In the case of Mr. Reed they might
have chosen the occupation from a
lengthy list and the place of resi-
dence almost with equal exactitude
any place on the globe. Had they
failed, however. to pick out some
Colorado city or town for this last
designation they would in all prob
ability have heard from Mr.. Reed.
Colorado Springs may do as well as
another Colorado point. but Grand
Junction, Alamosa or Fort Morgan
might compete with Denver for the
honor of calling him citizen. Had
they called Mr.. Reed an apple grow
er they would probably have pleased
him as well as to say author, banker,
miner, irrigator or realty investor.
All this is my way of saying that
Mr.. Reed Is now putting in at Grand
Junction the largest fruit orchard in
the state. A tract of 1900 acres in
the Grand valley will be set out in
trees of various kinds, but the apple
orchard of 800 will be the particular
pride and joy of the planter. Time
has won the Grand Junction apple
all manner of blue ribbons. 1t has
stood every test that marks the per-
feet fruit. Other spots on earth may
be able to do other things. but Grand
Junction is ready to risk its place
in fame as the home of the big red
apple and the yellow one as we'll.

INC hundWdyS."
From the Atlanta Constitution, q,
There were tuneful airs in plenty
in ''The Runaways. (which opened at
the Grand last night for three per-
formances, including matinee and
night performances on Thanksgiving.
The audience was more than pleased
as was shown by their generous ap-
plause following some of the song
hits. The whistler" which pleased
most, however, was the old-time favor
lite, "a Kiss for Each Day in the
Week" sung by George Ovey, with
the osculatory aid of six young ladies.
whom many of the masculine gender
thought so well of that they would
have gladly changed places with the
singer. "
Ovey smeared on the kisses thick.
for he was called back again and
again He got about thirty in one
night. At that rate, by the time the
season ends. he will have Mr.. Hob
son backed off the map, and will be
looking for new worlds to conquer.
There were other song hits, too
songs that were hits without the aid
of lip play-several other members of
the cast being given opportunities to
display their vocal possibilities.
All in all, the management gathered
a first-class set of girls, so far as the
matter of looks is concerned, but there
were two-two in the kissing brigade
who would be splendid companions
in a coy corner setto.
