Charles NJ. Heberton. the great r. R.
magnate and banker, who has Travelled
the United States from east to California
and from the north to the Gulf, said
while in Topeka, that the only place of
much size where they have had plenty of
rain is in the Divide in the rain belt of
Colorado, where rain, sunshine and good
crops never fail. Just think of it, A
bushels of wheat per acre, oats 20, barley
90, potatoes $50 to 200 alfalfa to tons,
alfalfa seed II bushels per acre, all with
out irrigation. The soil is as good as the
best Kaw bottom. The pure, soft water
and the breeze from the snow on Pixies
Peak makes it a delightful climate, in
fact it is the healthiest place on earth.
No hot nights, cyclones, hot Winds chinch
bugs. No crabb grass to bother when dig
ging potatoes. If you are bothered with
catarrh, lung trouble or malaria, go to the
Divide, where health, wealth and happi-
ness abounds. The exceedingly cold soft
sheet water is found from 10 to 40 feet
It is one OF the best places to raise colts
and mules in the world, as they live fat
on pasture the year around. Think of it,
only costing $l.00 per annum to keep
horse or mule. In fact, it is the best place
on earth to makes money and live healthy
and happy. This remarkable and fertile
soil for $1,000 per acre. Call on or write to
