without their daily mail at frequent
periods. The sunshine keeps our
frosts. Light frosts had been met by
'smudging g"-burning piles of damp
hay in the orchards just before day
break. The smoke cloud protected
buds from the sharp sunlight of that
understanding over four thou
sand feet-and the frost was drawn
off gradually without harm to the
blossoms. This method was not eff
fective, however, when the thermom-
eter went below freezing.
Last spring promised to be of the
usual mildness, but on April &c the
weather observer at Grand Junction
sent out a frost warning that filled
the whole valley with dread. The
temperature might fall to 22e or 23'.
One ranchman determined to try a
petroleum-pot device which had been
exhibited in the valley but not yet
generally taken up. Ii was 9 o'clock
in the afternoon when he engaged the
pots. Five hundred were distributed
over twelve acres. They were to act
as huge lamps, to raise the tempera-
ture of the entire orchard
Warming the Orchard.
Five neighbors Joined in the work
Two thermometers were hung in the
orchard. At short intervals one of
the workers would call out the read
ing. 1t was freezing at 9.45 o'clock.
An hour later 1t was 2So. AT 1880
the last of the pots were being filled.
The mercury touched zee.
Torches flew from pot to pot. Now
came the test. Would those trivial
pots of burning oil, looking like a
gala illumination at a garden party
crazily out of place on winter night,
cope with a February cold wave? AS
the men gazed at the yellow flames

the idea of those scattered lanterns
prevailing against all the cold be-
tween heaven and earth seemed pre-
posterous. They looked at the ther-
mometer. Still 260. A moment
later it registered 270; five minutes
after, 2S9.
The mercury In the area of the
pots gradually climbed up to 300. Far
and wide the pots burned on, but not
now as a mere idle illumination Now
they seemed animate with human
Will. At last the East began to
tighten. A great general was march
ipg to their relief. And the bright
eye of the sun showed over the line
of the mountains.

roads dry for the most part of the
time, but there are always some care
less irrigators who allow the water to
flood the roads and make dangerous
holes in them. and at times they be-
come almost impossible. More than
dozen times have our rural carriers
come within an ace of overturning
and upsetting the contents of their
mail sacks into the muddy water.
Just now the postoffice depart
ment has sent out word that the con-
ditions of all rural mail route roads
shall be examined by the postmaster
and comprehensive report sent in
to the Fourth Assistant Postmaster
General. The postmaster is instruct
ed to insist upon the road overrseers
that the roads must be kept in good
condition, or the routes would be
changed or discontinued. is urged
that this department of the mail SER
vice is carried on at a loss to the de-
partment, and the least that the rural
districts can do is to keep the roads
in good condition for the daily travel
of the mail carrier.
Another thing that is urged upon
that they shall put their boxes up in
a uniform manner SO that they will
look alike and command the respect
of the public. A model post has at
last been suggested by the depart
ment and it is further urged that
these posts and boxes be painted
white with the names of the owners
of the boxes painted on them in
black. There is great significance in
this suggestion, as it is the desire of
the postoffice department that uni
form color for this service shall be
adopted throughout the United
States, so that they shall become a
fixed identity in all parts of the coun-
try as United States mail boxes.
This plan will be insisted upon by
the postoffice department and the
postmaster will have cut made
showing the plan of construction of
the post and manner of setting same
for the convenience of the carrier. 1t
is to he hoped that all patrons of the
rural routes will cooperate with the

Frost" by r. E. Turpin, the news
paperman and fruit grower of this
valley. Accompanying the article is
a handsome photograph showing an
orchard lighted up with smudge pots.
The Sentinel reproduces the article.
1t follows:
The success of our Western fruit
growers is a success founded on tire
less patience. scrupulous care, and a
continuous use OF brains. Fruit
growing in parts of our Western
states, where warmth is abundant
and water turned on or off from irri-
cation bitches as wanted, has become
almost an exact science.
twenty-five years ago the Grand
valley in western Colorado was a
desert. Today it contains some of
the most valuable agricultural land
in the country. Its fruit ranchers
have conquered drought, worms, and
plant diseases. A year ago, for the
first time in dozen years, there was
considerable loss from early spring
The question of good roads, is one
of the most important and vital re-

AS a result such magazines as Col

the Scientific American, Popular Me
chanics, HaTper's Weekly, Pacific
Monthly, Leslie's Weekly. the Review
of Reviews, the American Magazine,
Human Life, and many other big
magazines, have carried well and ac-
curately written stories concerning
this valley and city during the past
year or two, attracting attention to
this valley in a way and manner that
no other method could possibly hope
to do. 1t is unnecessary to attempt
to name the great list of nationally
read newspapers that have carried
feature stories concerning this city
and valley. Money could not buy
this attention from these great maga-
zines and dailies. 1t has been, in
nearly every case, the wide personal
acquaintance that Mahony, Turpin
and Eddy have had among magazine
and newspaper owners and writers
that these stories of the Grand valley
have been able to reach the eye of
millions of American and foreign
readers.

earlier and continued longer. At
daybreak, when it was expected that
a temperature which had been grad
ually rising for an hour would con-
time 10 ascend. came the worst as
sault OF all. Feeling that the fight
had been won, the owner of the or
chard insisted that his neighbors go
home and get some rest. Before they
left, the pots were half covered, as
so much of the heat was not needed
Ten minutes after the neighbors
had departed, with daylight stream
ing in, the thermometer began sud
denly to drop. 1t was 2S0 before the
rancher was aware of the danger. As
fast as he could he began TO kick the
tops off the pots. But there was
only one man, where a half dozen
were needed. The cold broke through
the wall of heat and was in among
the trees after the buds. The rancher
guided his course clearing off tops
to a thermometer. 1t stood at 279
He kicked across the orchard to an
other thermometer-269 He worked
faster and faster. A few seconds
later the mercury stood at 25o-and
then the sun came.
Many buds were affected by this
drop. but enough were left to make
good crop. 1t was a lesson in the
need of holding preparation at a
hair-trigger until the sun actually
comes up. Crude oil was obtained
during succeeding nights, and the
work made much easier. The crude
oil burns much longer and can be
handled without danger.
Protection for a Crop.
OF the ranchers who used the pots
last spring. the most successful had
one hundred to each acre. His table
of readings showed an extreme diff
ference of l3o between the center of
the heat zone and the outside. On
the ten acres which he protected he
had practically a full crop, an oasis
among surrounding orchards.
1t is proposed now to use coal as
well as oil. This spring a dozen or
more experiments in heaters are be-
ing tried, and frost, should it come,
will find the valley creating n eli
mate of its own. 1t is estimated that
the pots cost about eight dollars per
acre year-only a reasonable in
surance, considering the prices at
which fancy" fruit is sold.

GREAT DAMAGE IN PARIS

One of the worst floods of history
is just subsiding in France, and the
property damage is estimated at more
than 200 millions of dollars. The
Seine river flooded the city, doing
much damage to foundations, sewers,
water mains and everything that
could settle or change its position or
form by being soaked and settled.
Many buildings collapsed and thou
sands of others have settled enough
to ruin them. About hundred lives
were lost by flood, and many others
were taken by looters robbing peo-
pie under cover of the darkness and
their helpless condition. Famine and
pestilence added to the immediate
suffering caused by people being
driven from their homes.
Thirty thousand Americans were
visiting in the city at the time of the
food.
