private suites and with private baths

80 to 100 feet above the level of the

The coal Ia mined for rs cents per
ton by the miner, and is sold at the
mines at from $2.75 to $3.25 per ton.
1t is retailed at Grand Junction at
$3.50 per ton. This grade is used
for domestic purposes. Slack brings

In Grand Valley nature was pro-
lifc in her distribution of mineral
wealth; particularly so in the matter
of coal measures. Underlying the
Grand Mesa and Little Book Cliffs
are twelve veins. ranging in thick
ness from three to twelve feet. Be-
ginning at the southern extremity
near Crested Butte, where valuable
beds of anthracite and coking Goals
are now being worked, they lead a
round Mt. Carbon to the mines at
Baldwin. then west to Mt. Gunnisoh.
and still on in the same direction
across the North Fork OF the Gunni-
son river, and around and under
Grand Mesa to Hogback Canon,
Grand river, sixteen miles east of
Grand Junction.
In the vicinity of Grand Junction
the developments show that the
deposits are continuous ana regular
under the entire Book Cliff mountain
The dip is slight at the Hogback
canon, not exceeding five degrees to
the north and three degrees to the
east. From this point westward the
dip increases until it reaches twenty
three degrees at Book Cliff, thence
westward it fiattens out to an aver
age of seven degrees. The dip of
the ehtlre county is north and east.

not generally thought of as a min
eral country, on account Of is won
derful fruit interests, 1t is contiguous
to the most wonderful deposits of
copper and silver that are known to
ted deposits situated in the Uraweea
Canon, West Creek Canon. Sinbad
Valley and the Paradox Country.
These deposits. while being known
as copper mines. run very high in
silver. considerable in gold. besij-s
unusual values in uranium. Thous-
ands of dollars worth of that ore hav-
ing been marketed during the past
few years, and it is fact today that
these mines are producing more than
half of the uranium of the world.
The mines above enumerated repres-
ent value in excess OF $4,175.00O,
and they are only small part of
what may be developed.
Among the minerals to be found
in this country are gold. silver. ura-
mum. copper. iron, lead, lime. mar
BILE, salt and cement, all in paying
quantities and some fabulously rich,
only awaiting capital to develop
means of transportation. There are
thousands of tons of very high grade
ore on our dumps today. ore whicn
would astonish experts with Their
values, which are not being market

not able to make roads to tranepor;

position to interest capital. These

Official reports place the territory
contiguous to the Grand Valley in the
front rank of the coal producing
sections of the inter-mountaih' re-
gion. There are numerous veins
opened and some that are not yet de-
velopei. The quality is good. the
quantity sufficient to supply the de

cost is very reasonable. For domes-
tic use 1t is delivered at $3.50 per

go to the mines and get it at $3.50
