Naturally one of the first items to be considered
by the producer is his market This is almost
unlimited. The larger portion OF the present
productions is consumed in the hundreds of
thriving mining camps with which the central
and western portion of Colorado is so abundantly
blessed by nature. Here fruits, eggs, poultry,
vegetables, beef and mutton are readily sold at
good prices, and for ready money. As addi-
tional railroad facilities arc now in course OF
completion we soon will have the markets on the

up for passengers to the worlds fair In

himself at Portsmouth, contracted
with ship builders who had ship yards
at Eliot, just opposite Portsmouth, for
a ship Of about thousand tons. with
extensive cabin arrangements for pas
sengers. The model of n ship was that
OF an extreme clipper When nearly
completed the protector fell short OF

been contracted for. and were In n
state of forwardness. The mechanics
concluded to complete the ship, and
put her In the hands of Gov. Goodwin.
