Years Of depression are counter
balanced by years of prosperity
This rule holds good everywhere, but
the change is more marked in tho
early stages of . eountry's develop
ment. The excitement of an early
boom always leaves behind it feel
ing of prostration- The country
that has the best resources soonest
recovers, but as general thing every
seventh or eighth year is marked as
the time of highest prosperity.
The experiences of the past teach
the importance of avoiding boom for
such condition OF business affairs is
feverish and injurious. Steady and
substantial advancement, like that of
Prowers county, adds material wealth
to the country, and enables every
honest toiler to jingle extra dollars
in his pockets, that during boom
times would soon be waited away ON
the wings Of sp eculation-

Ben Buffers advice to young men,
to save up their money and buy land,
is good. But get your land in a
country where crop failures are the
rare exception, and while it is cheap;
put it under cultivation and look
after it. Then it will pay its way,
make you some money besides, and
you'll have substantial foundation
for fortune.

the larger ones, and anyone wishing

As the Great Agricultural Coun-

a few Facts and Figures showing
our Progress and Prosperity,
Cultivation and Improve
meuto.
THE NEW MILL

Since last weeks issue of the RRa-
IsrER, in which was announced the
closing of the mill contract, Messrs
Brown and Markham and the officers
of the Lamar board of trade, have
been busy complying with the peo-
ple's share of the contract.
The four quarters of land that are
to be gwen as bonus have been
secured, and the deeds to the trustee
are executed and delivered.
The four tracts purchased are as
follows: The D. N. Frazier quarter
in 9-22-48; the Ed Miller farm in
2O-22-47; the land belonging to Mrs.
Bridget Slater on the north side Of
the river in 14-22-46, and the Luza-
der farm on the south side Of the
river, lying about one mile north of
Carlton.
These tracts Of land are to be
used as experimental farms by the
milling company, and will be under
the control of expert irrigators and
wheat raisers, who will make practi-
cal tests of all known varieties OF
spring and fall wheat, not devoting
to exceed five acres to any one variety.
These tests will be Of untold value to
our farmers, who will have the op-
portunity to profit by them.
The water rights are all decided or
agreed on, and there only remains
the building Of the mill to complete
the entire contract.
That the Lamar Milling and Ele-
vator company, backed by one of the
strongest institutions of the State,
the Colorado Milling and Elevator
company, has not been idle, is evil
denced by the fact that they have re-
mitted the money to help buy the
land, and have contracted for the
necessary machinery.
Recent sdvices from headquarters
are to the effect that that the ma
chinery is all of the latest and most
improved pattern, and that Lamar
will have one of the finest Touring
mills in the State.
The mill proper is to be stone and
brick, and 81 stories high, and to be
of capacity of 250 barrels of flour
day. The elevator at Lamar will
be large enough to hold $4,000 bu-
shells of wheat. The Granada and
Caddoa elevators will each hold 25,-
600 bushels.
The size of the plant at Lamar will
be 85x185 feet, and will probably be
located on the site now decided for
that purpose. This site is the south
half of block 15 of the original town
of Lamar, and is located on the north
side of the A. T. and s. F. railroad,
near the Continental Oil Company's
tanks and ware house.
