Western Slope
Fruit Crop Hit
by Cold Weather

Information reaching here from the
western slope are to the effect that
the recent cold weather in the Grand
valley severely injured the fruit crop
prospects In that section Of the state.
According to reports current In Grand
Junction few days ago. the frost
one night last week destroyed twenty
per cent OF the fruit buds. Whether
this Il serious or beneficial seems TO
be somewhat uncertain. NJ on III 3
side of the mountains the experience
OF borticulturists has been that sny
means OF cutting out large portion
OF the buds IL good thing. since the
trees carry twice IA many blossoms
AZ they can continue to maturity. In
the Pal,sade district. which usually
escapes with small ioes. the orchard
men wsrc out With their smudge pots
that night In the nick OF time. and rn
the carly morning at the crisis OF low
Temperature q pail Of smoke hung
over Psiisade canon. In the Grand
Junction region It was very cold but
there was much more moisture In the
air than usual and this made decided
difference In favor OF the trees. How
ever. some crops are said TO have
been badly hurt Apricots and early
cherries were killed by the freeze
and some varieties OF peaches and
p'ums were also nipped- Certain var
ieties OF pears were killed. Even ap-
plea were bard hit Eighty per cent
OF Delicious apples and Jonathans
were killed. while 20 per cent OF
winssaps and Arkansas and Lawyers
were frozen THIS is tho statement
from the yruitvaie section. but II Is
safe to say that the damage done to
the buds OF other ranches will aver
age about the same.

nine southern states-the largest
amount Of territory ever freed in any
one year since the campaign against
the tick began in 1906.
The release will be of great i'm
portance TO cattle raiSers and deal

will remove restrictions not only
against shipment of cattle from the

where the tick is not prevalent are
especially prone to sicken and die
from the fever germs carried by the

the cattle tick. on the other hand,
has prevented the shipment of cat
