NEVADA MINERAL BELT.
Contains Values Sufficient to Pay the
Worlds Indebtedness.


Nevada's onderful mineral belt il
thus expounded upon by the De Lamar
Lode:
Recent discoveries of rich gold
mines in the Goc-ee district give
color to the theory that the Lode has
persistently held to-nemely, that the
mineral zone, of which To1opah is
the western terminus comes in an
unbroken line to DeLamar and on the
east of this place to Caliente. We be-
iieves his zone averages over hun
ired miles in width and within its con-
ales thee is enough mi reral wealth
20 pay the worlds Indebtedness. Think
Of stretch of country ogr 400 miles
in length by 125 to $50 niles in width
Of which there is not one SQUARE mile
| that mas not mineral indicnti ms on the
! surface. An empire in extent, larger
/ than many OF tie European prime Dali-
ties, and yet contained within the
limits of four Counties of Nevada. Hun
dreds of millions OF dollars havd
already been extracted from this zone
and added to the circulation fund If
this country and yet the wealth already
taken out is not a drop in the bucket
compared to what yet remains in this
district.
''This strip is virtually virgin coun-
try. Here and there only has the
prospector struck his pick into the
ground The mineral zone is SO i'm
mense that the 10000 prospectors now
roaming over It seem but few indeed
to the man travelling from De Lamar
to Tonopah. There is room for 10O..
600 prospectCrs in this area. There
are many places untrodden by the
foot of man, rich in gold, silver, lead
and copper. The important discov-
cries now being made are showing a
distinctly easterly direction from GolG
field.
Great excitement now prevails at
Goldreed, only seventy-fve miles FROG
DeLamar. New discoveries are being
made closer and closer to this place
The prospectors in our own districts
are uncovering rich leads, and in the
coming summer we look for one of th'
greatest mineral revivals known in ths
history of De Lamar.

New Sugar Factories.

By the opening Of the next sugar
campaign in the fall of this year, two
more Colorado factories will be ready
to begin slicing beets. The American
Sugar Beet Company, which built the
plant at Sugar City. and is owned by
the Oxnards, has already begun the
construction Of plant at Lamar.
Machinery for the Lamar factory is
to be brought from an abandoned
plant at Norfolk, Nebraska, which the
Oxnards own. They find that Colo
rado is much superior to Nebraska for
growing sugar beets.
Lamar farmers for several years
have been raising beets which they
have shipped to the Rocky Ford fac
tory. With the building Of this new
factory the Rocky Ford plant will be
relieved Of part of its burden and
the farmers Of that section will be
able to plant and dispose of a larger
acreage at home. The Lamar farm
ers have contracted with the COM
pany to grow 1000 acres for the next
five years. They marketed some 30
900 tons Of beets at Rocky Ford the
past year.

Colorado Dairy Products.

Colorado creameries have paid out
100000 for dairy products the past
year.
They have made 100000 pounds of
butter.
They have bought the milk from
10000 COWS.
They have distributed cash among
10000 dairy farmers.
They have shipped 100000 pounds
Of butter out of the state.
The Littleton creamery, on lower
Nineteenth street, in Denver, alone has
paid out 81 100000 to dairy farmers for
their products in the year just closed.
The Littleton has made 100000
pounds of butter and has shipped q
100000 pounds of it to New York, San
Francisco and Seattle.
It has taken 100000 gallons Of
milk to make this butter and $4,000
cows have been MIXED morning and
evening every day Of the year to fur
nish the milk and 10000 people on
farms have been handling the milk.
The creamery has fifteen special cars
which it sends out on fast passenger
trains to gather up the cream and
bring it to Denver, and the railroads
get 5000 day for freight charges.
1t is claimed that for the first time
in the history OF the state the amount
Of dairy products were this year equal
to the home consumption. This does
not mean that products were not
shipped in from other states, but it
means that the exchange was equal,
and soon Colorado will begin to have a
balance of trade to her credit in her
commerce with the outside world in
these lines instead of having to be sup
piled.
