HOW THE sMUOoE POTS WON A

1t would be hard to exaggerate the
Importance of the smudge pots in the
iruit industry of Colorado, is the state
ment OF the Denver News.

CERTAINTY.

The fruit crop has been injured, to

but even though the loss be COM
paratlvely light, the lesson is one cali
ing for the best thought OF our
orchardists. Frosts in late spring,
after the budding of the trees, may
prove damaging any year. Now, IL
smudge pots make certain a full crop,
why trust to luck" why continue to
be without those safeguards which
brought such excellent results in
Grand Junction. Colorado?
We are certain this valley is at
the beginning of wonderful deyel'
opment in the fruit growing industry.
The time is coming when Ogden will
be the center Of an orchard country
second to none in the United States.
Now is the time to establish the In
dustry on a foundation so solid that
the growth will be most rapid and Sc
cure. One Of the most essential things
is to offer an assurance Of full crop
each year, and If smudge pots will do
that, then the frost dissipaters should
be obtained this year and made ser
viceable for the spring OF next year.
A committee from the Ogden Fruit
Growers association should visit
Grand Junction and obtain at first
hand the story of the victory over Jack
Frost, how much the installing of
smudge pots will call for, the best
plan OF arranging and firing the pots,
and all data necessary to an intel
ligent understanding OF the working
Of the orchard protectors.
Five years hence fruit culture will
be far more important to ogden than
any one other industry, il the people
make the most of their great oppor-
tunities in that direction.
