ton, Is the Decision.
SEVERAL PLANS ARE RECEIVED

No recommendation for a redistri-
button of the stock in the Grand

will be made by the special stock
committee headed by B. A. Smith. A
meeting was held this morning at
the Y. NJ. &. A. and "A number of
schemes were discussed; but il was
finally decided that conditions in the
valley did not justify the expense
which would be necessary If any
changes were made. Approval was
stamped upon several of the propos-
ais.
DR.. b. G.. Oyler suggested that a
guarantee of s per cent be made on
all stock. This would be an attrac-
tion to investors, and the treasury
stock might be sold
W. H. Derham had a plan which
has been discussed in these columns
before to take over the shares held
by holders not growing fruit.
b. A. Smith urged that the whole
association reorganize on an acreage
basis. This was not considered feas-
lille this year.
1t was also discussed by some mem
bers of the committee whether il
would not be advisable that the di-
rectors of the association insist on
the principle being adopted that a
growers credit with the association
be based upon the amount of stock

Pleasant Month
in This VaNey

The month of March in the past
has been pretty nice month in re-
gard to weather. and the local fore
caster, Il. S. Nichols, has furnished
the records for March for the last 90
years, which the public can use in

must not be taken as forecast, but
simply as n resume of the past per-
formances of the weather man.
The average mean for the month
is 43.5 degrees; the mean maximum,
56.S; mean minimum, 32.3. The

The list of entries is far greater
than The Sentinel anticipated. Young
ladies in nearly every section of the
county have been placed in nomina-
tion by enthusiastic friends.
The Sentinel believes that the list
of nominees forms the most repre-
sentative list of young ladies ever
entered in a Colorado voting contest.
1t is certain that never in the his
tory of Western Colorado county
has such interest been manifested in
or such enthusiasm been aroused over
a contest as is being manifested in
and as has been aroused over The
Sentinel's Great European Tour Con-
test.
The magnificence of the prizes, the
fact that all of the old questionable
features of the usual voting contest
have been eliminated and the fact
that every young lady is certain of n
square deal are responsible for the
widespread interest.
AS has been stated before, the nom
ination list has not closed Other
nominations can be and doubtless
will be made from day to day. We
will continue to print the nomination
