DEAR SIR:
My attention has been called to an
article published in your paper of Janu-
ary IL, in which G. A. Klacher of Long
mont is quoted as saying that some of
the pictures published in the circular is
sued by Delta county and distributed at
the Apple Show are faxed. According
to this story "a Delta County Orchard
Scene" is in reality a picture of the
Kountze orchard; the picture of the
strawberry patch was taken at Long
mont, and Mr.. Klacher's own farm also
has been stolen for pictorial purposes.
The article is headed He Was Mad"
which is entirely correct if the word
mad" is used in another sense from
that which you intended. With some
in the country to select from Delta
county does not need to go abroad to
get photographs.
In order that there may be no mis-
take in the matter l am sending you
under separate cover the only two
pamphlets which are issued by the
Delta County Business Mems Associa-
tion
We would like to make Mr.. Klacher
proposition if he still insists that any
of the pictures in these two books are
'faked." We will place in your hands
sum sufficient to pay his expenses to
Delta and return, together with 500 to
pay him for his time, and if we fail to
take him to the exact spots where the
pictures were taken, in Delta county,
and at the places mentioned in the lit
erature, the money is his. He to de-
posit like sum, to be spent in adver-
Using Delta county in northern Colorado
newspapers, in case of failure.
If Mr.. Klacher is so sure of his asser-
tions, and 80 "mad" here is a splendid
chance for him to take a comfortable
trip to the Western Slope and visit the
greatest fruit growing county in the
state. l am sending copy of this
proposition to Mr.. Klacher, addressed
to Longmont. Yours very truly,
E. w. TAYLOR.

Don't Knock.

The North Fork Times is indiscreet
enough to say that Delta represents the
inferior part of the coanty. This would
not be a nice thing to say, even if it
was true, which it is not. All parts of
Delta county are fine, and Delta's i'm
mediate territory is an average with
any. There may be slight differences
between sections in regard to adapta-
bility to some one or two products, but
they average up about the same as a
whole. We do notl Ithink any Delta
newspaper-certainly not the INDEPEN-
DENT-has ever said or intimated that
any part of Deltalcounty was "inferior. "
1t is "knocking."

Kind friends, have you heard of the
"Town of No Good?"

Where the Sometime or-other" scents

And the "Soft Go-easies" grow?
1t lies in the valley of whats the
Use,"
In the province of LET her Slide,"
It's the home of the reckless II don't

Where the "Give it ups" abide.
The town is as old as the human race,
And it grows with the flight of years.
1t is wrapped in the fog of the Idler's

schemes.
And are sprinkled with useless tears.

Lou Headed Trees
in The Orchard.

SIS . ss$ >>sSssAs ~~s
During these days when some ad-
vancement is being made in our or
chards along more scientific lines, one
often hears arguments against some of
the things proposed and practiced by
some of our best orchardists. One of
these is against the low heading of
fruit trees.
By high headed tree we mean cne
whose branches come out of the main
trunk four or five feet above the
ground, or, as the writer heard one
man say. high enough so that you can
get horse close to the tree in cultivar-
ing" BY low headed trees we mean
trees headed near the ground, depend
ing somewhat upon the variety. Peaches
in one of our best peach growing Sec
tions are headed practically at the
ground: while apples are headed from
IL to 18 inches above. 1t is, of course,
possible to allow the fruit bearing
wood on what was at first low headed
tree to be several feet from the original
head, but with proper pruning from the
start this trouble can be easily over
come.
An apple tree that is headed high is,
in some respects for practical purposes
anything but high; for example, the
chances are that such tree will have
the lower branches, at least, growing
at almost right angles to the trunk, or
in other words, in horizontal position.
When such a tree is bearing heavy
load of fruit, these limbs will bend
down and are very likely to break un-
less props are used. The use of props
in an orchard is at least sign of very
poor orchard management in the past,
and should be avoided. 1t is possible
to train the high headed tree SO that
the branches will have more of an up
ward growth, but it is a recognized
fact that work done several feet from
the ground is never as satisfactory as
when done from a short ladder, or
while standing on the ground.
In low headed, well trained, and
pruned tree we have all the essentials
for profitable one. other things being
right. We have a tree that is easily
managed in regard to pruning, spray
ing, thinning and packing. Good labor
for doing these things is always at a
premium, and it goes without saying
that the amount of time it takes for
such an orchard is less than for high
headed one. In the second place it is a
well-known fact that low headed trees
are far less subject to sun scald than
high headed ones. And the third rea
son is that when orchard heaters are
used the low headed trees receive more
benefit than the high ones. Especially
is this true when a strong, cold wind is
blowing. The writer has seen a notable
example of this in peach orchard
where orchard heaters were used. Dur
ing the coolest nights there was a
heavy, cold wind, the consequence of
which was that scarcely any fruit was
borne about the AZ foot mark, and
just little above this point ther-
mometer was located which showed
temperature many degrees below the
danger point. Below the Az foot mark
there were plenty of peaches; in fact,
some of them had to be thinned.

GREAT MEETING
OF STOCKMEN
Continued from page 3.)

(COntlnueO from page o.
our grazing resources, the Western
Slope bids fair to become one of the
most prosperous stock growing sections
OF Colorado.
We desire to call your attention to
the national scope and importance at
tanned by our association. We have re-
peatedly been accredited with render
ing the first support to the great cause
of conservation. Our answering con-
stancy in this just cause of the people
against the interests" has merited for
us the glorious distinction of being
classed with the most ardent support
ers of the great champion of this cause,
the Honorable Clifford Pinchot. On the
22nd day of last March we were instru-
mental in bringing to our midst the
Chief Forester, and we should con-
gratulate ourselves upon the achieve
ment of being able to bring to Delta
county aipersonage of so great impor-
tance in our political and commercial
history. We should feel proud of the
great honor paid US by one OF the
largest bureaus of our national govern
ment; we should rejoice too, that we
have ever been able to extenuate the
much needed education in the interests
of "Square Deal" We recommend fit
ting resolutions commencing the retired
Chief Forester for the great service he
has rendered the American people, and
praying that his successor in office may
carry on the work so ably commenced
by him, without abatement. We rec
ommend the adoption of resolutions
commencing the American National
Live Stock Association for its untiring
efforts in behalf of our industry, in in
fiuencing national Legislation regarding
our public lands, forest reserves, amend
ments to the interstate commerce law,
meat inspection and foreign markets;
also resolutions endorsing the policies
outlined by the Colorado Live Stock AS
sociation. Especially do we recommend
the adoption of strong resolutions fav-
oring a national law for the extension
of forest reserves and government con-
troll of public lands. We also ask you
to remember our live stock inspector,
Mr.. Cassius Sampson, in strong COM
mandatory resolutions.
Now, Mr. President and members OF
The Delta County Live Stock Associa'
ton, we, your executive committee,
having carefully audited all accounts OF
the association, and our chairman hav-
ing ordered vouchers drawn by the sec
retary on the treasurer for payment OF
same, we are pleased to report the
sound financial condition of the organi'
zation; and, having arranged the usua
program of business and pleasure, we
submit to you this our report with many
thanks for your kind assistance to US,
and wishing our association prosperity
for 1910, we subscribe ourselves faith
