The public never has had q very

1T and 18th Of every month from
April until October. Many think that
every well-known player gets at least
$4,000, and that the most famous stars
draw down from 5000 to $4,000. And
the public's sympathy has all been
with the players until very lately. There
have been 20 many phony hold outs, re-
irements and threats to jump to the
outlaw league by players who never
intended to do anything but Jump right

ORSON ADAMS FAITH
IN SMUDGING JUSTIFIED

+ In view of the fact that the +
I. smudge pot is a conqueror, it is +
r well to look back and see who +
+ was the original advocate of +
+ smudging in this valley. +
4. + + - 4. + I. + I. Z +
Four years ago Orson Adams, pres
ident of the Mesa County National
bank, continuously advocated smudg-
ing, as it was then done in California.
He urged it personally and at several
merce and that year at his own ex-
he distributed to the fruit growers
free of charge.
There were quite a few pessimists
in the country at that time that
laughed at Mr.. Adams for his smudg-
ing experiments, but Mr.. Adams con-
tinued them nevertheless.
The oil was used in conjunction
with material of all kinds that would
burn and at all times Mr.. Adams gave
his personal service at times of dam
ger.
AT later period, upon a carload
of smudge pots being sent here, Mr.
Adams aided the individual who was
stranded in paying the freight on his
car into this city
The Sentinel need not go on record
particularly as to who was and who
was not among the first to work to
secure smudging, as the people gem
orally know and recall Mr.. Adams
connection with this work, which in
this instance has saved the crop of
the Grand valley.
