The Delta Section and Its Great Importance the State

present time that is of paramount i'm
portance to the industrial and COM
has developed to such an amazing ex-
tent that no section of the country
can any longer afford to ignore the
supreme question of the moment:
Better roads: how to build them, how
to maintain them?' Always bearing
in mind the limited funds available
for such purpose.
With possibly a few exceptions, per-
haps no county of the state has taken
up the matter of road Improvement
and development more Systematically
and seriously than has Delta county
during the past few years, under the
active management of it's board of
county commissioners, assisted by
voluntary effort. The surfacing Of
friends and neighbors of Hotchkiss
and vicinity. realizing their natural
and Typographical advantages, seized
upon the idea of holding the big fair
within their own borders.
In their beautiful city park, nest
ling among trees and dotted with
shrubs and plants of radiant hues,
and with naturally beautiful green's
ward or lawn of ample dimensions for
picnic parties galore, Hotchkiss alone
of all sections of the county pos
sesses an ideal site for a county fair.
Nor has the handiwork of man been
one of our most potential assets and
will always be commensurate with
the available transportation facilities.
In its inception and for many years
thereafter the Delta County Fair was
held at the county seat, but owing to
lack of patronage and other causes 1t
was regretfully decided to abandon
this annual festival where mirth and
merriment was want to reign su-
preme.
Then it was that our enterprising
many miles of our county roads with
fine gravel has largely solved the
hitherto perpleNing question of speedy
transportation in rainy seasons, such
as we have had in unusual abundance
the past summer.
Tourist travel, superinduced largely

| tions of the Grand MeSa-unSurpaSs-

grandeur by any section of the state
or country should be and, indeed, is
i lacking in supplementing the many

| by the construction of suitable build

Two important facts quickly OBJ

minds of these sturdy pioneers. First
and foremost was the paramount
question OF irrigation. for It was
quickly perceived that natural pre-
cipitation could not he depended on
The Delta independent., 1921-09-23

And here again has the wisdom OF
our forbears been verified by the
judicious selection of the site on
which our city OF Delta stands today.
Located as it is at the junction or
confluence of the Gunnison and Un-
compahgre rivers Gn the formation of
a delta), Delta is the natural center
OF and point of distribution for all
commerce and travel for the outlying
districts OF the county. Slow though
her growth has been, compared with
the sporadic or mushroom-like growth
Of some of OUT neighboring mining
camps (many OF them now, alas! a
shadow OF their former greatness),
yet, nevertheless. it has proved itself
a substantial and well-founded growth
and one destined ultimately to fulfill
the objects for which she was de-
signed.
At the last federal census (January
1920 the population of Delta was
stated to be. 1855.

interest is shown at their Wednesday
luncheons, when matters of civic and
general interest are eagerly discussed.
The city of Delta some years ago
adopted the commission form of gov
ernment in place of the effete council
system. Now. however, there is an
agitation on foot to place before the
electors at the approaching November
election the question of adopting the
managerial form of government as
being better adapted to the present
needs of the city.
Like so many other cities, at this
time, not only in the state but
throughout the county, Delta is suffer
ing acutely from lack of sufficient
housing facilities; the demand for
houses for rent at the present time
far exceeding the available supply 1t
is earnestly to be hoped that next
spring a serious effort will be made
to alleviate the shortage. Comfort
able homes and plenty of them go a
long way to insuring that spirit of
contentment and civic pride, the
greatest moral asset of any we'll regu-
lated city.
Perhaps the one question at the
