buy A BOX OF
COLORADO APPLES

Grand Junction, Oct. 29.-"Buy a
box of Colirado apples.' '
That is the plea of Western Colo
rado growers, doubly emphasized this
week, proclaimed "Apple Week" by
Governor Sweet. With home grown
apples of unexcelled quality selling all
over the state at little more than
freight costs from the Western Slope,
growers here are begging for the
chance to get rid of their fruit even at
a small margin of profit.
Many apples have been sold over
Eastern Colorado from other states
Some years this may have been iusti-
fled, but not so this year, and one of
the leading industries on the western
side of the divide depends to a great
extent upon the loyalty of home con
sumers to get rid of the product.
With a tremendous crop of apples
all over the country the home market
is about the only one where even n
small margin above cost can be realized
by apple growers. That margin is es-
sential to tide the growers over an
other year.
