COLORADO HAS A SODA LAKE.

~ #G
Remarkable Discovery Made In the
Heart Of San Luis Valley.
One of the most remarkable dis
eoveries ever made. in the region 10
that of a lake Of liquid soda in the in:
accessible desert between Crestone,
Col, and Hooper, in the San Luis
valley. The lake is an acre and a quar-
ter in extent and lies at the bottom
Of a little basin valley in the desert
On it's surface soda crystals have
collected to a depth of eighteen inches.
the whole lake having the appearance
of q body OF ice with . hard snow
covering.
A recent examination by the state
school of mines shows that these cry
stalls are 81 per CEN pure soda. purei
than most of the commercial soda
offered on the market. A Denver man.
E. M. Fake, has secured a lease OF the
land containing the lake and is now
installing machinery which will con
vert the native crystals into market
able form. There are 1000 tons in
sight.
The. school of mines experts say
that the soda is q creation OF field
spar. The granite masses Of the Sangre
de Cristo range stand sentinel or
two sides of the little valley. The
feldspar in the granite, undergoing
decomposition, collects in the lake
basin, where it is held in check by al
impervious clay, and proper cond1
lions are furnished for concentration
and evaporation.

With a smile that's half a sigh.
