Colorado.
The flag is composed of one
white and two Yale blue stripes of
equal width, running at right angles
to the staff, superimposed upon
them near the staff end of the
flag being large red &C." with a
gold center. Attached to the flag
staff are two cords of gold and sill
yer interlaced, and attached to
these is one silver and one gold
tassel. The capital &c" alone has
four significations-the entire flag
has twelve:
Inc coloi, Itu, III opdHisH 10
Colorado"
2. The letter C stands for Colo
RADIO.
3. The letter C stands for Cen
tennial state.
4. The letter c stands for Column
bine state.
5. The gold stands for the gold
state.
6. The gold stands for Colorado
sunshine.
7. The white stands for the

10. The blue, white and gold
stand for the columbine, Colorado's
state flower.
II. The interlaced cords stand
for union and harmony.
~. The whole flag stands for
home and commonwealth.

Secretary Alfred Patek of the
state board of immigration has col
lected information for the benefit
of the Colorado apple growers re-
garding the system of shipping to
English ports. The information will
be furnished to anyone applying for
it.
Our apples sell for $3.50 to Sc
box in England in September. ="
said Mr.. Patek today, and l be-
iieve our Colorado apple growers
should take advantage of that mar
ket. The transportation companies
give a first-class service and the
fruit is whirled to refrigerator
warehouse within an hour of its
arrival at the English docks.
The steamship companies are
anxious to get the business in
September because the meat ship
ments are not SO heavy at that
time.
Il have obtained from the United
States bureau of manufacture a list
of all the receiving agents in Eng
land and full instructions as to how
the fruit is handled"
