me space. would like TO give my views
on the subject.
have heretofore been opposed to
women taking any part in politics or
voting. and am still opposed to wo'
men taking an active physical part In
politics.
The question. as understand II, Is
simply whether women shall vote or
not. | have no patience or sympathy
with the female politician who goes
about the country making speeches
and ranting about the tyranny OF wo-
man. Such talk is all nonsense and
hosh and has nothing To do with the
real question. II is the fear of being
classed with the Garry Nations" or
politics that keeps refined women
from expressing their views on vot-
ing. AIR John Temple Graves is right
IN saying men are getting tired OF
this rant and nonsense So are SEN
sible women. but he is very inconsist-
ent i'm his arraignment Of women IN
general.
He says: Men are better than wo-
men anyhow" He does not prove II
in any way. Being man. and as
"chivary is dying out" | suppose 1t is
natural he should think and say SO
but | am like the man from Missouri

there are today.

ness. therefore in politics. than WON

I'm the land in spite OF the good men

Graves asks: What on earth do women

for the same purpose good man uses

peaches grow better or superior
in quality. Those who have not
tried "Elbertas" grown in Delta
county, have yet to appreciate
what a good peach is. Apricots,
pears, prunes and other varieties
of plums grow perfectly. Cher
ries are fine and prolific. The
berry crops are particularly good
and quality unsurpassed. Straw
berries have yielded as high as
81, 200 per acre in a single crop.
Red and black raspberries, black
berries and dewberries are fine
and good yield.
OTHER RESOURCES
Stock raising is strong in
dustry in Delta county. 1t was
the pioneer business before the
richness of the soil was known
or it was dreamed that Delta
would ever become the agricul-
tural and horticultural garden
spot of the world.
Cattle. horses and sheep thrive
and fatten on pasture and range.
The great foothill country skirt
ing the rich valley, yet supplies
ample range for the thousands
and thousands of head of stock
dependent upon it.
Stock breeding. like every
thing else in this up-to-date
country. is of the most improved
and progressive character, and
while our cattle are winning
prizes at stock shows against
world competition, horses are
being raised that make track
records or wear the blue ribbon
in the heavier classes.
ABUNDANCE OF COAL.

$50 to "a. so per ton, according
ing to the distance it has to be
hauled. As soon as the proposed
system of electric railways are
built and in commission, coal can
be delivered to consumers at
most towns in the county at a
slight advance over its price at
the mines. The quality of coal
now mined is very good, burning

generally regard their ground
too valuable to spread out in
large fields of grain.
Potatoes grow to perfection as
do all root crops. To show the
depth of soil, we have seen car
rots more than three feet in
length. Our potatoes have found
their way to New York markets
because of their superior flavor
and quality. 1t is safe to say
that no finer grow in any part
of the world.
Vegetables of all kinds thrive.
Two hundred and fifty dollars
have been obtained from an acre
of tomatoes sold to a local can
ming factory.
Delta cantalolpas have been
awarded first premium over the
world famous product of Rocky
Ford at the Colorado State Fair.
Watermelons grow to file size
and luscious sweetness.
The fruit crops of Delta coun-
tv are a drawing card worthy
the name. The county now has

Tillers of the land in Delta
county have come to disagree as
to which are the best of the crops
to be raised.
All have proven so surprising
ly good at times that the i'm
portance of dividing up the soil
among them is fully realized.
Naturally all crops are not as
good one season as another. This
happens everywhere, because of
some peculiar condition that is
adverse to one certain crop.
There is less of these condi-
tions to contend with here than
in irrigable sections.
Here alfalfa is good for three
cuttings a season. making the
aggregate yield 5 to Z tons per
acre. This sells readily at from
81 to $40 per ton in home mar
kets.
Oats make a practically sure
crop and yield all the way up to
100 bushels per acre. with a
strong home market.
Sugar beets are a fine cr3p,
yielding from Is to 40 tons per
acre. The factory price to grow
ers at loading stations is S5 per
ton, making the gross crop worth
S75 to $500 an acre.
Wheat and barley are grown
