Surprising Number
OF Fruit Trees

That there is a Surprisingly large
number of fruit trees I'm Colorado IS
Indicated by advance reports made by
the county assessors. These reports
are now being received by the State
Board of Immigration in Denver
Until this spring there has been no
complete survey of the number of fruit
trees in the state since that made by
the census bureau in 1910. and the
general impression has been that the
increase in all classes of fruit since
that time has been very slight. and in
some kinds a decrease was forecasted
Such reports as have been received
to date, however. indicate increases in
all varieties of fruit trees. and rather
large increases in most classes. These
increases are due to relatively small
increases in counties where fruits are
not raised extensively.
