Canon Gets First
Real Touch Winter

The Canon City district got its first
real touch of winter on Sunday. and.
incidentally. its first snowstor1n of
the season The temperature fell from
something like sixty degrees at
O'Clock Sunday morning TO eighteen
degrees at dark the following even
ing. The snow BEGAN as driving mist
about II o'clock Sunday morning and
developed into a real snowstorm be-
fore noon. which continued without
interruption until nightfan. when
there was something like three inches
of snow on the ground. 1t was the first
white Sunday of the autumn and the
chill of the atmosphere was so dis
agreeable that but few people were
brave enough TO venture out Of doors.
except for the most urgent reasons. Il
was one of the coolest October days
experienced here in several years
Sunday night the clouds cleared
away and the mercury in the ther-
nometer began downward career
rhich continued until S O'Clock Monday
morning when q point approximating
zero was reached in some localities
about town. In exposed places on
lincoln Park the thermometer is re-
ported to have registered as much as
two degrees below zero. The tender
er forms of vegetation were frozen
stiff and ice to considerable thick
ness was formed on small surfaces of
water that were situated where the
fun force o. the cold wave could reach
f,Lem.
Orchards from which the fruit had
not been picked suffered severely.
and. in some instances, ranehers lost
n good many boxes of apples On ac-
count OF the freeze. Apples that were
picked and piled up in the orchards
Were not injured. as in all cases they

been very large. On some ranches
large forces OF men, women and boys
were employed On Sunday in picking
nppics and they worked In the storm

the snow and cold. How badly the ap-
pies wore effected by the freeze. or
how many were unpicked to ruffer

ishe apples from the trees Sunday at
l,@noon and allowed them to fan In
