RICH GOLD STRIKE PROMISES
ACTIVITY FOR NEXT YEAR
Patoro Mining District Coming Into Its Own Through New
Discoveries of Ore Bodies

Considerable interest has been aroused
IN mining circles over the recent strikes
of rich ore in the Platoro district and a
number of prospectors and miners will
continue work all winter on their claims.
Renewed activity was occasioned re-
Gently by Cripple Creek men entering
the field and making locations, and it is
expected that in the early spring there
will be large influx Of mining men
into the district.
The following taken from the Cripple
Creek Times OF Nov. %, shows the view
taken in that camp OF a possible rival:
"Platoro is rediscovered gold and
silver camp in Conejos county dorty five
miles southwest OF Monte Vista). 1t
hasn't even been thought of for over 20
years. In the old days it produced $780,
eco out of a single hole, but the ore had

water for irrigation, and thousands
of artesian wells supplying pure soft
water for domestic use.
With all these favorable condi-
tions a man can farm eighty acres
of the good land with profit for him
self providing the farming is syste-
matically managed. By that we
mean that approximately thirty
acres should be seeded to peas;
twenty acres put in small grain;
twenty acres for potatoes, and the
balance planted to sugar beets. Then
the next season raise the row crops
on land where the peas were grown,
using fertilizer for both beets and
potatoes. Always rotating, continu-
ally fertilizing, and adopting these
intensive farming methods, will
make the eighty-acre farmer pros
porous and bring about unprecedent-

UNUSUAL POSSIBIL LITIES ARE
OFFERED BY THE YEAR 1913
Campaign to Interest EghyAcre Farmers in Locating in
The Fertile San Luis Vallev

After a careful study of "irriga-
ton farming" and residing the past
seven years in agricultural sections
of Wyoming, Colorado and New
Mexico, the writer is convinced that
the San Luis Valley offers more and
better inducements to the eighty
acre farmer than any other locality
in the West.
By this is meant that land values
are lower in the San Luis Valley
than in any other developed irrigat-
ed district of the Rocky Mountain
region, which makes the purchase of
this land attractive to land seekers,
and also, that by proper cultivation
and rotation of both the row and
field crops, splendid and profitable
income can be derived from the
farming of this size acreage.
Any person who will consider the

The Golden Cycle Mining company
Of Cripple Creek, the heaviest pioneer in
the Greatest Gold Mining camp has
located seven OF the best-looking claims
in the camp. James Hammond, repre-
senting the American Smelling Il Rein
ing company, has acquired five claims
for his corporation. William Dingman
and associates have five claims.
"Platoro Just now is covered with
snow, which precludes much work in
prospecting. The latest assay is one
showing 43 ounces, or $500 gold and l2s
ounces or ESQ silver per ton. Dozens OF
Cripple Creek operators are planning to

and indications point to an old fashioned
rush the instant the opening OF spring
permits.

The Monte Vista journal., 1912-12-28

During the past month the bust
ness men and many land owners OF
Monte Vista and Center have held
meetings to devise plans and meth
DDS whereby the raising OF sugar
beets and manufacture of sugar can
be made the leading industry in this
valley. In order to increase the
acreage OF this crop 1t is necessary
for railroads to be built into other
agricultural districts of the valley,
and a movement is now on foot to
build the first sugar beet road to
Center, thereby giving the splendid
farming district north OF Monte
Vista good railroad facilities.
With this railroad in operation to
Center, thousands OF acres OF beets
would be raised In the north district
for the Monte Vista factory. This
increased tonnage would give the
factory the profitable one hundred
and twenty days run, giving en-
ployment to hundreds OF people and
expending each season more than a
million dollars for beets and labor
The raising of beets will do more

The Monte Vista journal., 1912-12-28

advantages and the resources OF this
valley will agree that the eighty
acre farmer is needed here, and that
when all the good farming land is
divided into eighty-acre farms, that
this fertile irrigated valley Will be
the most productive and prosperous
farming district in the entire West.
Farming 80 Acres
For the information OF non-resi-
dent persons who may be interested
in moving west and becoming the
owner of an 80-acre irrigated farm,
we desire to say first: that the san
Luis Valley is populated with as
progressive and prosperous a lot OF
people as can be found anywhere In
the United States. Second. the de-
yelopment has been going on for
many years, and 1t Is not necessary
to be a pioneer and endure the hard
ships as our early settlers did
Third: immense yields OF field peas

OF untold wealth in the rock ribbed hills,
and assays Of startling richness have

Irrigation Farming

Irrigation farming has many ad-
vantages over the rain belt farming,
both in the productiveness of the
crops and comforts to be enjoyed Ey-
ing in thickly settled prosperous
communities. Irrigation means bet
ter economic conditions: smaller
farms; more homes and more profit
from crops. 1t means more tele-
phones; good roads; more towns
produces support of dense popula-
tion; multiplies the productive
capacity of soils; makes the farmer
Independent of the rainfall; yields
large returns to investors; affords a
sure foundation for the creation of
wealth, and will finally solve the
great labor question and fortify
against the alarming increase of city
populations.
The Sugar Beet Industry
At the present time there is but
one sugar factory in the San Luis
Valley, and this is located at Monte
Vista. This new modern factory
building was erected in the year
1911 by the San Luis Valley Sugar
Beet company at cost of about
$9O0,000.O0.
The Monte Vista journal., 1912-12-28

ed development for every resident
of the valley.
The San Luis Valley is big enough
and productive enough to support a
million people, and when all the
good farming land has a family re-
siding on every eighty acres, this
development will bring such in
creased population to the cities and
towns, that the inhabitants will
number this desired million souls.
Our Location
The San Luis Valley is located in
the extreme south-central part OF
Colorado and comprises about three
million acres OF land. Nearly all
the land lays very smooth and sur
rounded on every side with high
mountain ranges. The Rio Grande
river flows through the valley from
north to south, and this stream and
it's tributaries furnish the water for
the irrigation of the crops raised.
The climate is ideal with sunshin,
nearly every day in the year, ant
because OF the high altitude is q
most healthful place to live.
