Myron Jordan OF Wlnona, Mimi, in
advertising an excursion from that
place to the Laramie valley for the
first OF September, in Connection with
the Tallmadge Buntin Land company's
plans here, inga letter to this paper
says.
Il I'M at present working to induce
people to settle on the Laramie plains
under the Tallmadge-Btntin irrigation
ditch, and would appreciate receiving
from you or the chamber of commerce,
of your city whatever literature has
recently been issued etxing the attrac-
tions of the city and that part of the
country. You may p0aadbly recall that
several years ago was associated
with Messrs, Hall and Williams in
Denver. 1t Is possible that | may visit
Laramie before long in company with
a party of investors"
Boosting for thu Valley.
Mr.. Jordan enclosed circular is
sued from his once, Nom which the
following is taken, whtth will be of in
terest as showing WheE eastern inves-
tors are given to understand are some
Of the natural resources of the Lara
mic valley:
Wyoming has the best irrigation
laws: the greatest volume of water
for number Of acres irrigated; her wa
ter rights are not In dispute, as in many
of the other states.
Good Irrigation Projects.
1T Is not our wish.s however, to de-
'preciate the value ofrofher irrigation
projects. They are II good-if they
r honest And there are some hon.
est propositions being urged in other
localities. But 1t is competent for US
to state the truth. which is, that the
Tallmadge and Bantirycompany's Lara
mic valley irrigated 6rms are being
offered at less hrst 3ost and AFFORD
you the most perfect, Abundant and in
expensive water rixhf to be obtained
anywhere. The ~educ1aional end social
future Of the locAlty, Is unsurpassed.
The agricultural c6llpge lectures are
open to your .ehHdfek. the state uni,
versity, second to nohe In the United
states, is at your door; Laramie, in
which you may live II you prefer, is a
city of churches and schools. and built
up by people Of greater average intili-
gence and public spirit than many
eastern cities.
A Good Climate.
1.-THE climate makes the country a
s%anitarium that Is being sought far and
wide. and your lost of living is in
every way less than in the east; coal,
the best Ignite, Is JUS acros the
state line in Colorado in exhaustible
beds, and gives greater heat per ton
than Mississippi valley coal gives; the
winters are usually autumnal in their
mildness, and the fuel and wardrobe
expenditures are comparatively nomi-
nal. These are some of the reasons
why families going to wyoming can
not be induced to return to the east
for love or money.
Some Great Yields.
Potatoes yield 300 to 500, wheat so
to 70. barley 60 to 40, oats 70 to 1876
bushels per acre, and vegetables are
prolific crops. The dweller is also in
close community with the great gold,
silver, copper and iron enterprises that
are taking millions of dollars from the
mountains which are in sight of this
land. There is in short no advantage
Of the east which this favored locality
does not possess, and it has q multi.
