Colorado Apples in
European Markets.

An effort is to be made this
fall to place Colorado apples on
the English and German markets.
Colorado apples are now sold in
nearly every part of the United
States, but the price paid in the
foreign markets for high class fruit
is much higher than in this coun-
try and is believed that the intro
duction of Colorado apples into
England and Germany will mean a
large increase in the profits of the
fruit growers.
The United States consul at Ham
burg has been in communication
with Western Slope fruitmen for
some time and is anxious to see
the Colorado fruit placed on the Ge'
man markets.
The English market is also a
most desirable one. the prices run
aing much higher than in the
United States. At present most of
the apples sold in England come
from Nova Scotia and Australia.
That these apples cannot compare
with the fruit raised in Colorado
is certain, and efforts will be made
to have a shipment made to England
this fall.
The red apple is said to he the
favorite of the Germans, while the
English like the yellow and green
apples

Paonia School Teacher
Thought to Have skipped

Prof. Hussong, principal of the
Paonia school, arrested on charge
of having assaulted the l0-year-old
daughter of Charles Oliver week
ago and placed under $500 bond
for appearance in the District court
at Delta, is thought to have made
his getaway. He left ostensibly for

came his bondsmen. II is said he
had sufficient real estate in Paonia
to reimburse them. He had been
principal of the Paonia school for
two years and had been engaged
for another year.
Since his arrest Hussong has
been accused of being an opium and
cocaine user and to secretly have
INDUCED in the liquor habit. These
latter may only be the result of
dog getting a bad name. In any
event the original charge is henious
enough to cover the whole chapter
of criminal offenses.

ASSOCIATION HAS ORDERED
10000 CANTALOUPE CRATES
Made With Chicago
House to Handle Local Melon
Crop.

Denny & Co., of Chicago, will
have the marketing of Delta canta-
loupes in that city with Howard
G. Fletcher to look after the best
cants raised in the world.
This company is to furnish the
crates of which we understand TO-
900 have already been ordered.
The arrangement will supply the
market of one of Americas great
est cities with our cantaloupes, the
limited acreage of which will be
little more than enough to give
one of the big cities a taste. This
looks like an exaggerated state
ment, but 1t isn't, for Chicago has
three million people and in the en-
tire 10000 crates to be shipped
from Delta there would be but
about 100000 cantaloupes. there
fore not SO much as Il each for the
population of that city.
This little bit of figuring Will
go to show how extensive the mar
ket is for cantaloupes and that
there is little danger of its being
oversupplied even when many
thousands of acres additional are
planted.
The cantaloupe as now grown, is
coming into its own as the chief
of all delicacies and a table lux
ury every person OF taste Graves.
In its season most of us would
rather have it than anything else
grown, either on tree or vine.
This craving alone will insure
good market demand for all the
growers can supply.

Grand junction Paper
Gets a Big Sensation.


In the Grand Junction Sentinel.
in a nice little border box. was pub
lished Monday an account of a ter
rifle hail storm that devasted the
crops in Delta county.
After diligent inquiry as to when,
where and how it happened, We
found one man who said he under
stood there was a shower of hail
down in the vicinity of Dominguez,
along the Mesa county line.
There hasn't been any hail up
this way and rarely if ever is. In
four years residence the writer
has not seen a hailstone in Delta as
big as a mustard seed, while those
the Sentinel describes were as large
as walnuts or about ten times as
large as the Sentinel mans head.

you get tack-hammer or some
