7 The hurried suggestions in my previous
letter were not the full program for pro
Claiming our mineral resources TO the

map suggested would be for adver,is-

seenA Boulder county map in the Offices
of Denver, Colorado Springs, or in the
east? And they are extremely rare even
in Boulder city. We are behind other
progressive counties in this particular
and the mistake should be corrected in

ter suited for the task than your popular
county surveyor, George w. Teal. Tha,
there would be good demand for such
map goes without saying. These, of
course, would have to be sold, not gwen
away. A new map OF Leadville is now
about to be issued and hundreds of cop
les have been ordered in advance.
Comparatively few people know the
great value OF map in advertising and
bringing to the front any particular dis.
tr!ct. With accompanying information
i, is the best possible form. In addition
to the mineral map mentioned, of which
there should be several hundred thou
sands OF copies published and distriout

publish newspaper of small size. week

months, to be named the Boulder County
Advertiser. or Investor. A page of suit

Boulder will have many thousands OF
outside visitors this summer. Let this
publication be distributed carefully
among them and also mailed cas-. by
real estate, mining men, merchants and |

The appointment. of Committee OF
miners on advertising our mineral re
sources could probably be more readily
gained by your board Of trade extending
its Membership to the mountain camps,
and the advertising map suggested
might be incorporated as one page

object could thereby be as thoroughly
accomplished.
The business men OF the live camp of
Id sho Springs few years ago organzed
a board OF trade which devoted itself to
the promotion of investments IN its min.
ing properties as the best method Of ad

the result that more mining deals were
in that district within the
year than in any other district in Colo.

anything goes" the total number being
not far below one hundred. And the
and other business men have
reaped big harvest for their efforts.
1t is possible to advertise Boulder city
alone and leave out the mines but it is
impossible to proclaim our mineral re-
sources by the means suggested without
