Making His Marketing a Success

There may not be a world of valu-
able knowledge in the foregoing, still
there are some hints worth remember
ing, and as our people are trying to
educate themselves in marketing to
the best advantage, such experiences
as that OF the Montrose man are not
only worth remembering, but of taking
into account. His experience is not
much different from that related by
a number of others who tried to do
their own selling last fall, aside from
the distributing of samples, which
seems to have worked well.

higher prices to be expected this COM
ing year.
1t must be remembered that the
largest checks ever returned to our
orchard owners, was from their ship
ments during years when the yield
was estimated at from forty to fifty
per cent of a crop. In such years
they received double or more than
double the prices obtained in full crop
years, had but a proportonate amount
of expense in growing, picking. pack
ing and shipping, had better grades
and came out away ahead.
The crop three years ago was an
extra heavy one generally and there
was almost no market. That years har-
vest of fruit is said to have entailed
loss on the fruit growers of this
county of more than 100000. Last
seasons crop was another universally
big one, but because we had advanced
somewhat in the art OF marketing,
little profit was reaped from it, but
the matter of supply and demand was
again strongly in evidence.

In the European
Fighting District

Through the past week fighting has
been more active between all the arm
les lined up for battle
Decided advantages have been cred
tied to Germany and Austria Hungary
in driving back Russian forces, and
in the latest battles it is estimated
that fully 100000 Slavs were killed or
taken prisoners.
In the Dardenells engagements all
the best of it appears to be on the side
of the allies. In the Belgian field
there has been somewhat less activity
on the French-English and German
fighting lines.
The feeling that an early end might
come to the struggle is less indulged
and some authorities go so far as to
predict that the war may continue for
five years. Under the stress of expen-
ses, however. this does not seem pos
sible. Five billion-fifty thousand
million--dollars. is said to have been
Engand's share of expenses up to date.

The Hon. Geo. w. Bruce of this
city, member of the last legislative
body, was in Grand Junction last Sat
urday and joined the party comprising
Governor Carlson, Congressman E. T.
Taylor, Senator Kluge, Alva A. Swain
and others in an inspection of the old
Teller Indian school near that city
which is now to be used as an insane
asylum, and progress on the High
Line canal
Saturday evening a reception and
banquet was given in honor of Cover
nor Carlson when several very able
addresses were made. The governor,
it is said, was very pleased to find
himself entirely free to talk of matters
other than politics-in fact, no poll
tics-and also pleased with a freedom
from approaches by office seekers af-
ter jobs. 1t was new experience for
him, he said. and he complimented the
people of Grand Junction for having it
so. We herewith quote the governor
on this point as follows:

Adams Not Free
When Term Ends

Orson Adams, the defaulting banker
of Grand Junction. will not be free
even after he has completed his pres
ent term OF service in the state prison
at Leavenworth. Kansas, according to
recent advices coming from Grand
Junction.
II now develops that Adams is to be
arrested Immediately following his re-
lease from prison on the charge of en-
bezzling funds Of the estate of John
w. Taylor which was represented by
him. The district attorney announces
that an information is ready to be fill
ed in either the district or the federal
court on complaint OF Andrew ]. Tay'
1or, charging the embezzlement of
$3,453 from his brothers estate.
Adams pleaded guilty about year
ago In the federal court to indictments
against him in connection with the
failure OF the Mesa County National
bank. The defunct bank Ia in the
hands of John T. Tobin of Montrose
and has paid 35 per cent. It is said
to depositors. II is expected to pay
Mt least so per cent.

FROST THOUGHT TO HAVE BEEN
A GREAT BENEFIT TO DELTA
COUNTY TAKEN AS A WHOLE

Later reports from the early week
frost are making our people feel much
better While our orchard people do
not rejoice at the misfortune of other
fruit growing sections. they do feel
thankful that our own escaped with
no greater damage.
The first scare was as usual severe,
but later reports are to the effect that
our crop. including peaches, apples and
cherries will be from two-,hirds to a
threefourths crop If no further damage
is done.
The apricots are reported about
wiped out, but they constituted but a
small unit of the fruit growing indus
try here: so small. in fact, as to hard
ly be considered.
Around Paonia and Cedaredge it is
claimed that the peach trees escaped
with but nominal injury. and likewise
peach trees are said to show, on Gar
net mesa. plenty OF live fruit buds. and
the cherries and apples are not
thought to be much hurt
As a matter of fact we have had
frosts every spring--not one, but many
and the same old scare and holler
have gone up on each occasion. only
to be followed, as a rule. by lots of
fruit.
II is true that the storm Of Saturday
Sunday and Monday, was an unusual
one, though not as severe from n
freezing point as many others we have
had in this county in recent years. The
mercury went to 26, while at other
cold periods we have had IL go down
to l6. and have still had fruit.
This storm period. however, was
widespread and much more severe in
many other fruit territories. lcycles
were hanging from the orange trees
far south. In the northwestern fruit
belts. six inches of snow fell, with
accompanying billiards.. AS nearby
as Grand Junction the mercury went
four degrees lower than at Delta, and
while much damage was done through
the Grand Valley generally, active and
tireless smudging is thought to have
saved much fruit, and the more pro
tected peach orchards of Palisade are
said to have escaped luckily. like the
ones in this county.

Accident HaltS
Auto Pleasures

Rolla Allen and wife, and Lester
Shock and Miss Winnie Killian were
members OF an auto party to Montrose
last Sunday afternoon and everything
was going along pleasantly even II
the weather was a trifie cold and blus-
tery until they arrived at point
about a mile this side OF Olathe on the
return trip when the machine. Mr.. Al
lens five-passenger Buick. skidded off
the road in a rough spot and had not
the power to climb back into position.
II was 9 O'Clock when the accident
happened and for full hour the two
men OF the party labored necessarily
with the auto in their efforts to get
back on the road but all was in vain.
Then Harry and Charlie White came
along with their Buick roadster and
they hitched on and tried to pull the
ditched machine out OF its predicament
but failed. An Olathe livery team was
called into action but this also failed.
and then a combination of efforts was
employed which put the carriage on
the road ready for use at 3 O'Clock.
The ladies' of the party were advised
to return home early in the evening
when another auto came along and
they very promptly acted upon this
suggestion leaving the men to figure
out their difficulties.

ORDERS GAMBLING
TO BE CLOSED IN TELLURIDE

1t was sad comment upon the of
ficers of San Miguel county and the
Seventh judicial district when Gov
ernor Carlson was forced to issue a
direct order from his office on last
Thursday, directed to the sheriff of
San Miguel county and District Attor-
ney William Weiser that gambling
must forthwith be stopped in that
county or he would instruct the at
torney general to proceed and super
sede the officers.--Montrose Press
The action of the governor is to be
commended. as gambling is said to
have been going on for some time.
