Low Tourist Rates
Strong Advertising
Railroads Say that One in Ten of the
Western Visitors Buys
Farming Tract.

The announcement just made by all the
western railroads that summer tourists
rates TO all points in the Rocky mountains
and in the west would be the same as last
year has more behind II than the average
person imagines.
The railroad passenger officials will tell
one In confidence that the amount OF real
money actually made in summer from the
tourist travel Is very small. And yet in
the last five years the summer tourist
travel has grown to an immense volume
and II Is expected TO be larger than ever
this year
The object OF the railroads hauling so

form Of advertising the west and is a sure
method OF getting settlers on the western
lands traversed by these roads

middle westeTner In the thickly settled
districts TO take a trip to the west as a
vacation and not 20 go to Europe. And the
result Is that out OF every ten families
that take a trip west there is a sure aver
age OF enc farm sold.
The advertisement OF having hundreds
snd thousands OF people viewing the won
derful fields OF grain, the orchards and all
Of the crop raising done by the west In
the tourist season is more valuable than
the profits that could be made out OF an
advance OF rates, the railroad men de-
