pen to make such an estimate too
large, or it might prove below the
actual output of our greatly increased
acreage of orchard.
l. will be remembered tn It last sea
sons yield was only placed at one
fourth of crop, and in reality it was
hardly that. T le early frost did great
damage and little smudging was at
tempted. Over much of the territory
where there promises to be loads Of
apples this year, there was barely
enough in many orchards for family
use. Then, of both apples and peaches
his county has many acres which are
just coming into bearing.
1t may also be of interest to state
that Delta county practically shipped
as much fruit last Sc ison as all the
balance of the state of Colorado.
The OUTLOOK this year is that ma
jority of orchards will have all the
fruit the t 'ees can ripan, and in hun
dreds of Instances thinning will have
to be done extensively in order to get
perfection of size and flavor.
But, that Delta is the banner fruit
county, not only of Colorado but the
whole Southwest. there is no room 10
doubt, and this, with her multitud of
other resources. places her on ped
estal of fame as leader of the agrcIl-
tural and horticultural counties of the
West.

TERRACE PORCH OR PERGoLA.

her aid. A wide porch built in the old
way, with solid roof of shingles, add
ed substantially to the cost of house.
but there are several ways of getting
round this point. Today we realize
that we do not always desire a solid
porch roof, and our porch may be as
wide as we choose to have it when it
is covered only with supported beams
over which vines are trained, or a ter
race porch may be built, which means
merely that floor is laid and sur
rounded with "a low railing. Over this
an awning may be stretched from the
house to the edge of the porch and
secured there by iron uprights or by
slender wooden posts. Where these
posts are twined with vines they are
not an unattractive addition to the
house, even when the awning is not in
use and is rolled up out of sight.
The most desirable floor for ter
race porch is one of cement. and in
this case rail is unnecessary. Small
trees in tubs and potted shrubs may
be set on the outer edge and the eff
feet with red and white striped avn
ing overhead, with low basket chairs
holding cushions of turkey red calico
and with few small rugs of red and
white grass mating is gay and bril-
liant, yet it will readily be seen that
here is not half the expense of the old
fashioned rooted in porch.
If small house is planned with two
wings at right angles and pergola is
built across in front the fourth side
may be filled in with latticed wall
for vines. This, when the shrubbery
plays a proper part. gives a most de-
lightful Enclosure. 1t is then an easy
matter and not an expensive one to
have the water pipes so arranged that
one end sends up spray in the center
of the court to fall back in cement
basin. Ferns will flourish happily if
they are planted to catch q continuous
sprinkling Of this spray. Water lilies
will also readily grow in the basin and
papyrus and various Egyptian grasses
will do well. Birds will seek such a
fountain and make it their bathing
place, and it will be found center Of
interest throughout the summer. The
impulse for open air living is one Of
the healthiest and happiest fancies
that ever attacked society, and 1t is
we'll to encourage it by rendering our
out Of door living rooms as attractive
as possible. This may be accomplished
by the use of willow and rustic furni-
ture, by bright cushions of East India
cotton and the always serviceable
denims. The pretty accessories Of a
tea table in blue and white embroid-
cred linen are delightfully."- suggestive
of pleasant summer afternoons and
the cozy good fellowship of tea drink
ing out Of doors.

A Japanese Salad.

New ways Of serving familiar dishes
are always interesting, and it was an
experience to find cucumbers sliced
lengthwise instead Of crosswise. The
cook who did this claimed that it
avoided part Of the seeds and the hard
center. and she was right Another
cook, japanese. had an amusing way
in making salad of slicing the cucum-
bers or boiled potatoes very thin and
laying them together on the lettuce in
the shape Of the original cucumber or
potato. Salad dressing, with a bit of
chopped parsley added. was then put
over them. This requires deft fingers,
but makes quite an attractive arrange
ment of a commonplace food. On the
other hand. In England. where the
long cucumbers are much used, a
whole one. unpeeled, is sometimes put
on the table, and the diner is expected
to cut OF such a piece as he desires,
peeling. slicing and dressing 1t him.
self. This, 1t is explained. keeps the
vegetable much fresher than when 1t
Is sliced and allowed to stand until
the meal il ready.

FRUIT ON WEISER PROJECT
Crane Creek Land Will Be Watered
and Prepared for Fruit
Culture.

Weiser-The Crane Creek irripa.
ton project, consisting of 10000
acres located near Weiser, is to be
devoted to fruit culture on plans SINH
lar TO those which proved SO success
full on the arkston-Lewiston pro-
Ject a few years ago. The entire
tract will be subdivded into 2O-acre
tracts and only fruitgrowers or those
deeply interested in the business will
be encouraged to buy land. This will
be the largest body of land in the
state thus divided. An abundance OF
water will be furnished for each 20
acre tract next spring.
A dam is to be built in Crane Creek
on site "a miles from Weiser. The
dam will be 90 feet wide at the top.
AT the base the dam will be $40 feet
wide. 1t will be an earth dam with
rip rap and cement cove wall
through the center. 1t will cost
about 100000 and is expected to be
completed next February.
