A BIG CHANGE
IN BUSINESS

Yesterday an important business
transaction was consummated which
will result in the consolidation of two
of Grand Junction's largest and lead
ing enterprises, the Grand and the
Jersey Dairys. VIII Longshore. one
o' the best known young business men
of the city, who has been at times
past connected with the Grand Dairy
is the purchaser of these large con-
Germs and he took possession today.
While ii has not been definitely de-
cided, the business will probably take
the name of the former, and be con-
Quoted as the Grand Dairy.
MIR. Longshore is an old time resi-
dent OF this city and we bespeak the
cordial patronage of the old custo-
mers. He is one of the best known
and most respected young citizens of
the valley and will undoubtedly make
success of the undertaking. He
has had much experience in this line
of work and is thoroughly familiar
with all sides of the business.

STORM VISITS
LOWER VALLEY

One of the worst rain storms in
the history of the lower valley oc-
Cured yesterday afternoon between
! and 1870 O'Clock but no serious
damage was done to crops.
Old timers of the lower valley state
that they never saw such u rain storm
IN that section. Ii came down in tor
rents and had all the characteristics
OF cloudburst in one or two Iocali-
ties.
IL seems that but very little hail
fell right around Fruita but heavier
hail fell in a small strip of territory
Just south of FrIiita. In this strin
some injury was done to fruit and To
garden truck.
FROM various localities damage To
mialfa and wheat is reported, the
rain and hail beating down some al
falfa and grain.
No bridges were washed ont rs far
Us known.
The damage as a whole will not he
heavy and wild reports published in
the morning paper and circulated in
ienver are denounced as false and
unjust to the lower valley by many
prominent business men and ranch
men OF the lower valley who were
communicated with today. Investiga-
tion shows that only two or three
orchards were visited by hail and
these orchards did not suffer heavy
losses. Ii was "a big rain storm but
not disastrous storm as many SEN
sationai reports would have il.
