Prospects for next season's fruit crop stated by Phil Sheridan
Phil Sheridan of the Rockafellow ranch in Fruitmere says Fremont County orchards show promising signs for a large crop next year under normal conditions. He notes apple germs are abundant and that the Canon City district may yield a highly satisfactory apple harvest. He recalls last year’s grapes survived late frosts to produce about 7,000 baskets, with fruit moved to Texas and nearby markets.

Deficiency claim myth debunked by A O U W official
T B Moors argues since last Supreme Lodge session rumors claim the order is 30 million behind in death losses, but the plan adopted in St Paul last June provides 30 million to be paid over 82 years as a reserve for future emergencies.
