There are many important feat
ures to consider in the selection
OF a farm. The most important of
which are climate, soil, water,
crops, and location as to market
and transportation. All these
points have been carefully inves-
tigated and considered by those
who carried to completion the Toll
tee project.

$1,000 Acres of First Glass Land

Canal and Reservoir Sys-
TEN Almost Completed
DRAWING At N1oN|1o, COLORADO, NOV. 4
All Provisions of the Carey Act Have Been
Compiled With and the Drawing Will
be Held Under the Direction of
The State Land Board

When Zebulon Pike, the discov-
erer of Pixies Peak and the first
American to discover and pene-
trate the San Luis Valley, which
he had the honor of doing in 1906,
returned to Washington and re-
ported that he had traversed an
Earthly Paradise" he little
dreamed of what was in store for
the beautiful valley which he saw
in its native state when sparsely
settled by a few Mexicans, Span
iards and Indians.
If he could see the San Luis
Valley today, with its prosperous
towns, costly irrigation systems,
rich fields of wheat, oats, barley,
potatoes and thousands of cattle,
hogs and sheep munching the nu-
tritious acres of field peas which
have made the San Luis Valley
famous as one Of the greatest pea
fed hog and sheep raising districts
in the world, his enthusiasm would
know no bounds. After a short
period of development the San
Luis Valley has been transformed
into a real garden spot by the in
dustrious farmer and the magic
touch Of water, the life blood of
western lands.
Every acre of land put under ir-
rigation adds to the prosperity of
the valley, provides homes for the
industrious farmers and increases
the agricultural output of the
state.
The Carey Act drawing for 15,-
600 acres of choice land under the
Toitec project, which will be held
at Antonito, Conejos county, Colo
RADIO, Thursday, November 4, un-
der the direction of the State Land
Board. will give hundreds of farm
ers and homeseekers who have
watched with pride the rapid
growth and development of the
fertile sunny San Luis Valley, an
opportunity to secure farm and
home direct from the state. under
the liberal terms of the Carey Act.
All the land under the Toltec
project is under n practically
completed canal and storage res
ervoir system, and is the first
Carey Act drawing to be held in
the state where construction work
is almost completed and water has
been ready before the day of the
drawing to be turned on the land
after the building of latersls, etc.
ABSOLUTE SECURITY
UNDER CAREY ACT
Under the provisions of the
Carey Act the State Land Board,
after the inspection and approval
of the Reclamation Department of
the Federal Government, super
vises the entire construction of the
irrigation system and dams. The
State Land Board approves all
water contracts and secures final
patents to settlers and the entire

mately becomes the property of
the settlers.

some of the high priced Iowa
farms.
THE WATER SUPPLY
The water supply has been ex-
amined and very favorably report
ed upon by engineers of national
reputation, and also by the state
engineer of Colorado, who says
that in his opinion the water
supply is adequate and sufficient
for irrigation and reclamation of
all the lands subject to the duty
of the canal and reservoir system.
This insures the settlers plenty
of water for irrigation. For do
mestic purposes wells can be sunk
at very little expense.

Every business has a good will cap,
and every satisfied customer is feath'
err In that cap. Trained men at high
salaries are employed to keep tightly
in place the feathers that are already
there and to add new feathers. 1t is
the advertising department that is
most conspicuously engaged In the
feathering process, while the adjusting
department is most Enthusiastically
employed In keeping the plums firmly
anchored. Both of these departments
are maintained at a large proportion
ate expense, which goes to show the
value Of feathers. Who, then, in the
organization of a business could be
mischievous enough TO pluck the feath-

ten the death Of an eminent person
has been marked by the appearance OF
a comet. A certain writer, indeed, aft

600 years, says that it is las II God

the knell Of princes, esteeming bells
in churches upon earth not sacred

a few. Lotharius the Younger. Louis

CD Of Tours; Henry II. and Richard l.
had their knells thus rung by comets.
Even in Shakespeare's time the comet
was considered a fitting accompani-
ment to the obsequies of kings:
