This volume, parts two and three, examines, respectively, the same topic in the lower Arkansas Valley, from Canon City to Holly, and the western slope, with emphasis on Delta and Mesa Counties. The industry had its origin as a means of utilizing fruit that was too ripe to ship to local and regional markets.

Dehydrators, in addition to canneries, were popular on the western slope, but were not employed in the Arkansas Valley.
