The trout season in Colorado
opens on the 25th day of May,
and continues until the 1st of
November, and during the period
when ranchmen can without
detriment to their interests, leave
for an outing, a stream of camp
ers may be seen winding their
way up some inviting stream,
for recreation and sport.
Ducks of nearly all species
breed in the valley and stay
throughout the entire year.
The open season for shooting
ducks begins on the 10th day of
September, and lasts until the
-15th of April following, sufficient
1y long in fact for the novice to
learn to shoot without potting
them.

Fare found in the valley, so that
IT. hunter can take his choice.
The open season for deer is
from October 1st to the 10th,
with an allowance of one buck to
each licensed hunter.
Weather conditions during the
fall period being ideal, hundreds
of the valley residents select
that time for their period of
recreation.
Any country that is devoid of
all opportunities of affording the
tired man and woman a period of
deserved recreation, is shy one
asset that means more to the
man who is fond of getting close
to nature, than almost anything
that goes to make up the list of
human existence.
Of course man can work every
day in the year if he wants to,
but the opportunity is here pres
ent for the person whose inclina-
tions may so direct, to mix a lit
tie fun with his labor and make
him all the better for it.

colleges of the state without other
preparation.
What is true of the schools of
Alamosa, is likewise true of the
other larger towns, and in the
smaller places, as well as in the
rural districts, the education of
our children are problems that
receive careful attention.
Alamosa has a Carnegie Libra
ry stocked with a well selected
list of books, which are being ad-
ded to every week, and other
towns in the valley maintain sim
liar institutions of a public char
acter.
In the matter of churches the
naw conner can satisfy his desire,
as many denominations of relig-
ious worship are to be found in
all the centers of population, and
it may be truthfully said that in
the localities that are more sparse
ly settled, places of worship are
to be found on the cross roads in
nearly every locality where the
population has justified their
erection.
A tabulation of the different
denominations is not here under
taken, only sufficient reference to
the subject is here made that the
visitor or future citizen may know
that his spiritual welfare need
rot suffer through lack of direc-
ton.
Nearly all of the fraternal
bodies are represented in the val

A not unnatural desire on be-
half of people who contemplate
a change of location, is informa-
tion concerning the community in
which they purpose settling, for
if the social conditions are not
such as conduce to advantageous
living, they may we'll hesitate,
even though other conditions are
to their liking.
The valley contains several
towns ranging in population from
a few hundred up to nearly four
thousand.
The town of Alamosa, the stra-
getic as well as the geographical
center of the valley, is perhap
the largest town, from which the
railroad radiates in four di-
rections, a division point of suf-
ficient Importance to maintain ex-
tensive car shops, and furnish
ing employment to a large force
of operatives.
Stock yards of ample proper
tions arc established at this point
to enable the handling of the ship
ment of live stock with facility
and dispatch.
The town supports several ex-
cellent hotels, aside from many
boarding and rooming houses.
The schools, which are always
an index to the character of any
community, are Of high standard,
and are conducted with an eye
to efficiency.
No better tribute can perhaps
be paid them than to remark, that
graduates from the high school
are received into the classical

Every town of any considerable
importance in the valley has a
commerce al organization, differed
by intelligent men, and each Of
these local organizations study
into the needs of it's community,
and are all the time performing
servi that argues well for the
permanent growth and welfare of
the valley. "
In order to make more effec-
tive the efforts of these sep
arate and distinct local organiza-
tions, they have without los
ing their identity, formed one
central organization which en-
braces them all and in which
they are all represented by di-
rectors of their own choosing.
Wherever therefore something
OF lmpoi tance invites the atten-
tion of any of these bodies, if
the subject is commendable, it
'sures the cooperative effort
Of all the rest, who can make
their desires known through the
central body.
70 more perfectly illustrate
the working out of the plan being
followed by these Organizations,
let us take up the matter of rep
resentation and exhibits at the
National Irrigation Congress,
held in the city of Pueblo, Colo
rado, from the Goth to the 29th
of the month of September.
The central organization called
a meeting of all the commercial
clubs of the various towns, and
when once they We're gotten to-
gether, it was an easy matter to
ascertain what each town was
best adapted to accomplish in
the way of making the valley ex
hibit a telling one at the Con
gress.
Now that the force and influ-
ence of these various organizai
tions, including the central organ.
ization, may not be lost as a fac.
tor In the future growth and de-
vclopment of the valley, in the
scheme Of organization, they
were welded together with an
idea of permanancy, Tor while in
dividuals may now and then dis
play sparks of wisdom collection
of individuals are all the time
sending out such sparks, and ii
you have back of it associations
capable of kindling a flame, a
community will not rust through
inactivity.
Cooperative effort is every
where essential, but it is vitally
so in the settling up and de-vel
opment of a new country.
Settlers here have been drawn
from the older states, where the
opportunities to make money are
not so good as in this locality
and where the man of limited
means can more easily procure
q start.
The citizenship as reflected by
the valley, compares well with
other sections of the country
and western hospitality is not a
mere figure of speech, but has
a well defined meaning which
any one will readily comprehend
as soon as they come in contact
with the people living here.
The people here are not quite
so long on ancestry, as they are
in the extreme East, but in sep
arating the kernel from the
chaff, they have a very refresh
ing way of getting down to busi-
ness. and when friendships are
formed they are genuine.
