of the best advertising mediums a Saw

Union Journal says:
Ex-Gov. C. S. Page takes about as
much pride in the growth and success OF
the Lamoille County Savings Bank as he
does in the growth and success of his
calfskin and hide business. Gov. Page
IS TIE president of this bank. 1t was
started with the idea of not loaning a
dollar outside of Vermont and this prin-
ciple has been strictly followed. The
bank is successful financially because
the people have confidence in the bust

bank would not have depositors from

This bank pays 4 per cent compounded

We left Great Bend. Oct. 2Sth,
and arrived at Pueblo next morn-

with Mr.. j. c. Crouch and
family who were former residents
of Great Bend. We left Pueblo in
the afternoon and passed through
the Royal Gorge. arrived at Salida
about slx. O'Clock in the evening.
Salida is a beautiful place with
nice scenery and as our train was

around. The next morning Oct,
Goth We took the D. R. G. Mar

the town and also the school.
While Montrose isa nice place it

made BY taking land under The
Gunnison Tunnel which will to a
great thing for the country as it
will water thousands Of acres of
arid land but it will be about
eighteen months before The water
is turned on the land. Well, as We

decided to come ~ Paonia which
is about fifty six miles oy railroad
north east from Montrose. PaCnia
has a population of about 1000 in

place to live. 1t is situated 10
North Fork valley and has a fav.
orable altitude of 1896 feet. which
is low enough to guarantee the
successful growth of all kinds OF
fruits and vegetables usual,

of the state. The mountains form
a channel which conducts the
breeze with sufficient velocity to
prevent the freezing OF the fruit
crops. only one minor loss having
occurred in twenty years. This
is a record that is unequalled in
the history Of fruit raising 10 any
part of the United States. We
have mild winters and no severe
wind storms and need never fear
a cyclone or tornado and absolute
ly no wind to speak of in winter.
The climate is very h ealthful.
The most important factor in this
whole country is the water for
irrigation. With out irrigation
nothing can be grown here but
with the ample supply Of water,
immense crops, are raised upon
soil which otherwise would be
a
worthless. Irrigation is fertilizer
in its self. This valley has q per-
feet system of irrigation; instead
of being rotated. it is not only
perpetual but the amount of water

constantly through the season to
be used when so desired. Paonia

coal deposits. Two and one half
