THE GRAND VALLEY PROJECT.

The Grand Valley High Line
irrigation project, which has
been held up for some. week by
orders of Secretary Ballinger, is
to be resumed again under dif-
ferent conditions. The former
agreement provided that the
been held up for some weeks by
the government and the Water
Users association.
But the government legal depart
ment has decided that under the rec
lamation act the project must be
by the government alone,
if 1t goes into it at ALL Secretary
Ballinger declares that the project is
a feasible one, and that it is only a
question of money. He thinks that
there may be $4,000 available in
the next eighteen months for the
work and that funds will be forth
coming hereafter for the project.
This is gratifying information, not
only for the Grand valley, but for the
rest of the state inasmuch as it will
greatly increase the fruit producing
area of the state, in one of its best
sections The plan is large one and
calls for the expenditure of large
of money. so much that the
people of Grand Junction felt that
they could not undertake it privately.
Now. however. that the government
is to take it up the work will certain
ly be prosecuted to a successful con-
clusion although II may take consid-
erably longer than under private

The death Of Miss Elizabeth Trickey,
which occurred on Tuesday, Sept 2lst,
caused much sadness in this community.
Bessie had been in failing health for
the last two or three months and all
that the best medical assistance, good
care and kindness could do was of no
avail; the deadly tuberculosis claimed
her as victim. During all her suffer
ing she was very patient, cheerful and
hopeful.
She was the eldest daughter Of Mr..
and Mrs. Geo. Thicker and was born at
Willow Springs Sept. goth, 1893. Her
parents, four brothers and one sister
survive her. Much sympathy is felt
for the bereaved family.
Bessie was member of the Bethe
p. NJ. Sunday school and was beloved
by all who knew her as was shown By
the beautiful floral offerings.
The funeral was held Thursday after
noon, Rev. w. Croft conducting tht
services. Interment was made in Grace
land cemetery.

Mining Notes.

A brisk demand for zinc ore, with
buyers ON the alert from the beginning
Of the week, and ore markets identical
with those of the week preceding,
featured the business of last week.
Sixty per cent zinc blende remained at
$40 per ton. Lead ore sold more gen
orally for $50 per ton for 80 per cent
ore, but many sales were made below
this point, the feeling gaining ground
that decrease in this commodity was
near at hans, due to an increased pro-
duction and much ore held in bin too
long. Calamine. Of which there is a
steady increasing production, remained
firm at s25 per ton for 40 per cent ore,
choice lots running better.
The southwest quarter Of section II

Paint
Proposition

And needless to say much has been
said on this subject. However if you
have building that needs painting dc
not be lead to believe that the cheap
dope that is handed out in every nook
and corner is good enough or that you
are getting a first-class paint at price
less than good hnseed oil can be pur-
chased for and if you take the time to
investigate the matter you will lind this
statement to be correct.
We never have or never will offer
this suff to our friends because we know
it is worthless and will not stand the
test of time and elements and we will
at once be their enemies for the simple
reason we have deceived them.
We will offer you good paint at a
reasonable price and give a guarantee
that if it is not as we represented 1t to
you we will make it good.
Now all we ask is this: Before you
invest you money in paint come to our
store and let us explain the paint prop
osition to you and then be your own
Judge. Yours for honest dealing,
