EASTERN FRUIT TRADE AUTHOR.
ITY SAYS THAT OUR PROD
UCTS ARE IN A CLASS
ABOVE ALL OTHERS.

The Eruitnan's Guide, published
in New York. il the most representa-
tive paper of the fruit trade in Am
erica, SO il is claimed. The issue of
September II contains AN article
which is, perhaps, the greatest boost
for Grand valley fruit ever published
in II journal exclusively devoted to
and entirely representative of the
fruit interests of the whole country.
One of the buyers is quoted as say
ing that these Elbertas from Colo
RADIO are really in class by them
selves" Another prominent fruiterer
says they are the finest in the
world"
Below is given the article, and The
Sentinel gives the article as much
prominence as possible, so that fruit
growing sections elsewhere in this
country may learn exactly in what
class they are as compared to the
Grand valley product
The attention of The Sentinel was
called to the article by Samuel G.,
McMullin.
New York. Sept. l0.-The first car
load of the 1909 crop of Colorado Ell
berta peaches, shipped from Grand
junction. Colo, by the Grand juno
tion Fruit Growers Association,
reached this market on Thursday,
and sold through p. Ruhlman & Com
pany. the Representatives of the as
= sociation here. at s1.30 to S1.40 per
box for extras, and s1.15 to s1.20
per box for choice grades. THE
FRUIT is DESCRIBED BY SOME OF

HERE, INCLUDING SOME OF NEW
YORK'S FOREMOST FANCY FRUIT
ERERS. AS ''THE FINEST IN THE
WORLD" The fruit in the car sold
on Thursday showed up.in ey-cllen'
shape The quality was exceptional
and the color high and attractive
A FEATURE THAT WAS THE
CAUSE OF MUCH FAVORABLE
COMMENT WAS THE PACKING
AND GRADING OF THE STOCK.
There was a decided uniformity in
the grading that did not fail to i'm
press the buyers with the fact that
the fruit could be depended upon to
run with regularity.
1t was said at the end of the sale
by buyer in no way connected with
the shippers that there are no other
peaches in the same class with the
Colorado stock He said: "These
Elbertas from Colorado are really in
a class by themselves and the fact
that this is so is brought forcibly to
the front by the additional fact that
buyers of the first-class stock in this
market are the purchasers of it.
There are no Elbertas from any other
section now on the market to make
comparison with: but there is nc
doubt in the minds of experienced
handlers that this fruit beats them
all. The flavor of this peach is en-
tirely different from that of any 9th

desirable fruit to handle for the best

Yet every Intelligent person knows
that nothing in this world can possibly

the cause must be suf1cient to pro-
duce an effect. The most ignorant per
son, It would seem. should know that
the arbitrary number, 13. has no more
power to produce any effect, to cause
any calamity, than drop Of ink. The
fact that the ink or paint, instead Of
being in the shape OF round drop, is
put into the form OF the numeral 13.
