The capital stock is $4,000 paid
up and non assessable. The stock
books are open to any who desire
to invest with limit of $500 to
any individual holding Geo. A.
Hill, the former owner, retains
$4,000 in the new company, but
in order that his holdings may not

cash to place the property in the
highest state of perfection and to
handle all the wheat necessary to
operate the mill at its fullest capac-
ity. In addition to making flour
the mill will also turn out break
fast food. Some needed improve
ments will be made in the near
future.-Antonito Ledger.

printed in Colorado Springs for
the purpose of booming its town.
Any chamber of commerce that
will do trick like that, when its

year to help the town and advertise
it than the board of trade does all
