Editor Tribune,
Dear Sir: 1 promised to let you know
what this country was like, as ! saw it,
but there has been so much snow that /
could not see it until the past week.
/ landed here March II in three feet
of snow. The "old settlers" say it is the
worst they ever saw here. can well be-
leve it for it has been the worst ever
saw, even in old New York state. We
are in the clutches of Colorado biz
zard at this writing, $50 a. m.
Prices of farm produce are very low
here Oats 20 to 25 cents per bushel,
wheat 30 to GO cents per bushel, barley
30 cents per bushel, spuds 40 cents per
bushel. To the east it is mostly prairie
land; to the west, brush and timber
The timber is white spruce and poplar,
with pine in the mountains and the Hud-
son Bay country. There is no available
land for homesteads nearer than 30 miles
from Bowden.
have given you the principal draw
backs and now l will giva some of the
advantages of this country. First-Us-
ually good weather in winter. Stock is
allowed to run on the range during the
entire year (the past winter excepted }
Second-High prices for stock. Horses
range in price from S85 to 1925 each and
in few instances teams have sold for
$500 team. Three year old steers and
fat cows bring from s35 to $50 per head !;
dairy cows from s25 to $50 per head, ac
cording to age and milking qualities.
Ihird-There are plenty of creameries
and cheese factories throughout the
country, both government and private.
Fourth-The rivers and lakes are full of
fine fish There is not much small game
here except geese, ducks and some
grouse Very few rabbits, but plenty of
deer, bear, moose and mountain sheep in
the timbered parts. There are also lots
of fur. bearing animals such as beaver,
martin, mink, skunk, lynx. otter, bob
cats, mountain lions, grey wolves, coy
otes and wolverines.
Will write again after have been out
and seen more of the country.
Send the Tribune to me here.

Heavy Snowfall.

The Divide country and all Eastern
Colorado experienced one of the heaviest
April snowfalls in recent years last Fri.
day and Saturday. During the twenty.
four hours from Friday morning to Sat
urday morning at o'clock fully two feet
of snow fell here at Elbert and the tenn
perature on Saturday and Sunday nights
fell to 15 above zero. The snow coming
at this time is worth many thousands OF
dollars to the farmers of this country
1t will put the ground in first class con
dition for putting in the remainder Of
the seasons crops and will give the hay
crop good start. The young orchards
were damaged by the freeze and poor
stock suffered some, but the damage is
trifling when compared to the immense
good the country derives from the mois
ture.
As the Tribune goes to press (Wednes
day at p. m) the snow is practically
gone and the roads are drying rapidly.

GREAT DEMAND FOR
ELBERT COUNTY LAND
Hundreds of Eastern Farmers
Flocking Here, Attracted by
Low Prices of Land and
Great Possibilities.

In the history of the Divide country,
and especially in that portion of it com
prising Elbert county, never before has
there been such demand for land as
there is today. From all points OF the
compass is seen daily an eastern trans
lent in search OF divide Dal estate. In.
dications lead us to believe that in the
course of very few years this section
will be the hub OF Eastern Colorado for
industries Of various and profitable ma
lures. In the last few years its develop
ment along these lines has been wonder
full.
The great dairy industry and oar ex-
tensive farming operations have given us
an important place in the financial
world. These, together with the rich
ness of our soil and its comparatively
low price, is the magnet which is respon
sible for this divide country's present
prosperity.
Eastern farmers who find it impossible
to secure the capital with which to pur
chase eastern land at existing prices,
gather together their small means and
immigrate to the divide country, where,
with careful investments in real estate.
they are certain to make a comfortable
living, with excellent opportunities for
the accumulation of wealth. Numerous
ranchmen who, few years ago, came
here with little or no money, today are
independent.
Our pure climate, certain in its con
duciveness to health is no small attrac
ton, and the health seeker, as well as
the wealth seeker, who comes here finds
his mission not futile one.
