TO
CLOSE BATHS
IN GLENW00O
Water Fight in ssa Brings a
Warning That Government
Owns Mineral Water.

Trey are having q warm and inter-
esting water fight In our neighboring
city OF Glenwood Springs. The peo-
pie have voted to buy the old plant
at price and failing to do this are
to construct another system. The
old plant Is owned by the people who
operate the hot baths and they are
not making veiled threats to close
the baths II the citizens do not look
out.
The Avalanche takes occasion to
remind the gentlemen from England
who own the baths that there will be
something else doing in case they get
too foxy. and adds
We don't want to talk about the
threat to close up the baths and
the hotel for we don't feel anyone
will be influenced by 1t. But we
do want to say to the gentleman
from England that IL his company
closes up the baths as they did a
few years back there viii be trouble
and they will have to settle with
Uncle Sam.
Perhaps he is well aware of the
fact that these United States never
surrender the ownership of the min
eral water. His company having a
number of years lease on these
springs does not give them owner
ship. So II would be a nice thing
for him not to allow his understrap-
lings to spread the report that he
might lose his temper and close up
the bathing privileges.

DETAILS OF
SALES PLAN
MADE PUBLIC
West SIOperS Will Join Grand
Junction, Thinks PdIiSade
Tribune.

In discussing the question of the
joint selling agency contemplated be-
tween the Grand Junction and the
Western Slope associations the Pali-
SADIE Tribune goes into the details,
which IL claims warrants the belief
that there will tie Il working agree
ment completed. 1t further says:
Under the proposed arrangements
a board of control is to be established
composed OF three members from
each board of directors, who shall
have absolute charge of the affairs
of the shipping end, which are to be
kept separate from and Independent
OF the associations proper, all the
selling affairs, however. to be left
entirely with them II was agreed
to have sales manager, traffic
manager. head inspector and cashier.
and 40 per cent of the monies receiv-
ed from returns for handling the
fruits will go to defray the expenses
of this new department; the GO per
cent balance to revert to the handling
in other departments. 1t is thought
the 40 per cent will be generous al
lowance for the expenses and any
surplus will go back to the associa-
tions in the same manner as it
was taken.
Another phase OF the new propo
sition that will doubtless meet with
much favor is that of pooling all daily
shipments SO that there will be no
discomfort over fruits sent out at
the same time. At times in the
past there has been wide dispar-
ity in prices received on the same
day by growers because of market
conditions at places where their fruit
has been sent and on comparing
schedules there has been cause for
dissatisfaction.
"A rough estimate in the matter of
cost OF operating under the proposed
new arrangement as compared with
the old was made by the joint COM
mittees and 1t was soon found that
the cost for running the two telim-
mating entirely the cost of the Pali-
sade association) would easily be
$4,000 less than last year. This
amount IS not only saved to the
ranchers at home. with probably nu-
merous other savings. but the chances
are that many thousands of dollars
will accrue to them through better
marketing conditions in dealing with
various parts of the county. Had this
plan been In operation last season

least $4,000 In clean money could
have been saved to the ranchers of
