Valuable Discovery for orehardists


Grand Junction.-The peculiar Sc
cret which has kept the Bellefleur
apple orchards from fruiting in this
section has been discovered by Har.
ry Sage, a prominent rancher. who al
so has a remedy for the failure. He
has discovered that there is no mate
to be found for the Bellefleur in the
Grand valley. but he has evolved a
method of forcing the blossoms to
bear fruit in spite Of the old difficulty.
He girdles the tree by cutting Oft
strips of bark two feet long and an
inch and half wide, leaving sim.
liar width of space between the strips.
This method has proved to be unusual.
ly successful. and as result of the
experiment Sage is now harvesting
the first crop Of apples since his Belle.
fleurs were planted, ten or twelve
years ago. Sage's discovery will be
worth thousands of dollars to the ap.
pie sections of Colorado.
