s.ns. vii, ch.re. Exchange.


The banks OF La unta will
charge exchange on all drafts and
collections on and after August Ist.
The rate is very low and reason
able, being much lower than the
rate for postoffice money orders,
or express orders. The banks
have been giving free exchange to
customers for several years, and at
a considerable loss to themselves.
Exchange is legitimate charge
and is almost universal among the
banks throughout the country.
Heretofore the La Junta banks
have gwen exchange, and made
collections, to the extent of many
hundreds OF thousands of dollass,
without any compensation what
ever.
These drafts and collections
have to be entered, in detail, in the
several books. collections often
presented several times. and one
or more letters written. SO that the
expense to the banks foot up to q
considerable sum in actual outlay
for stationery. postage and labor.
and it is but right and reasonable
that the banks should be reim-
bursed for this expense.
Banks are or great convenience
to the public in these matters.
Bills due at long distances are
thus paid at home, and money IS
sent to any part Of the country
with little expense to the sender,
and without risk or loss.

The La Jnnta Oil and Gas Com
pany expect to commence drilling

pany has ordered an engine and
boiler and 500 feet OF casing from
a Denver firm which will probably
arrive in La Junta today. a car
load OF casing has also been order
ed from the east, and as soon as il
arrives drilling WILDE commenced.
The first string OF casing will he
ten inch, and extend TO a depth OF
AIS feet, and as this has been
ordered from the east drilling can
not be commenced until il arrives.
c. II. McVey, the Hibernian
oil well expert, will superintend
the drilling OF the we'll. He is
probably more familiar with the
formations in this vicinity than
any other man, and is firm be-
lever in the existence of an oil
basin hereabouts. About $50, 900
shares OF stock have already be en-
sold al ~ cents per share. but
this price will be advanced as 5000
as drilling is commenced. Next
week will be the last opportunity
to secure stock at the low rate of
