COPPER MARKET
BOOMING

Copper sold in the open market
of New York last week at eighteen
cents per pound which is the high
est price commercial copper has
brought for years. 1t is predicted
that the price will go to twenty cents
before the years ending and should
no new big mines come to the front
with heavy production, the price is
liable to be increased to twenty five
cents another year, from the fact
that the worlds consumption of the
red metal is way ahead Of the COM
bined production of all the copper
mines the world over. The wonder
full advancement in electrical mech
anics is the occasion of the increas-
ing demand for copper, the strlnging
of heavy wires for the transmission
of power by electricity for thousands
of miles in this and every other
populous country in the world, as
also the rapidly expanding use Of
the telephone business all over the
world, whereby millions OF miles
of copper wires are being strung in
every city, burg and hamlet i'll the
civilized world.

| BY following the Muddy north
west toward the Ragged mountains,
and Marble, and locating either
along its upper reaches or on Lee
Creek one secures II more rigorous
climate, with shorter summers and
heavy SHOWS in winter. The land
nearer the head of the Anthracite
and Snow Shoe Creek and at the
foot OF Marsalene mountain is also
high and one has colder climatic
lconditions.
The soil is excellent being a clay
loam, and is remarkably free from
rocks. Small streams and springs
are numerous and the rain fall
maintains Il good flow of water. As
soon as one passes Mt. MarSalene
the vegetation becomes more luxur-
| liant and when the mouth of the
Muddy is reached the trees and
plants simulate those of the Middle
States. The nights are no longer
chilly while the days are but little,
if any, warmer than in the high
country.
The original settlers in this land
of PROMISE have all located in the
canyons of the Muddy or the Apth-
racitc neglecting the table lands but
three or four hundred feet above
them, so that now it is possible to
secure homesteads near the mouth
of these rivers, but three or four
miles from the wagon road to SOM
erset and Only twelve or fourteen
miles from the town to which one
can drive at any time during the
winter. The elevation need not be
over 1900 feet makingapples, pears,
berries corn, etc. the logical crops.
Settlers are flocking to,this section,
good roads are not far in the future,
markets for produce are near by
and in consequence the land that
may now be had for locating it will
be worth large sums in Il vcry few
years. The broad gauge road built
to Crested Butte, the next logical
step will be its continuance to
Somerset to provide another outlet
for the fruit crop. This done the
land will command a higher price
than amy in the vicinity OF Gunnison.

GOOD OPPORTUNITY

RANCH LENDS
HOMESTEADS ALONG
THE MUDDY NOW {.
OPEN FOR

Lands Suitable For All Kinds
of Farming

In the crowded cities of the East
one of our most prevalent diseases
goes under the illminativc name of
NERVOUS Breakdown" To first
this patient and then to that the
physician says 60 to the country
Take your family and quit trying
t j., live where you are always ctcrnal-
ly on the verge of spending more
than You can earn. Some few can
Z take the advice but the greater num-
Ter must answer, Il have no money
and land costs money. Twenty
miles from Crested Butte, toward
the setting sun, begins stretch of
country that extends westward for
fifteen miles and is thirty miles from
north to south. This land will in
most places, produce most any crop
that Indiana, Illinois, or Ohio will
produce, and lG8 acres may he had
for not to exceed Sl2!5 in actual
cash.
This section of Gunnison county
was given to the Indians sumc fifty
years ago and it is only IL few Years
since it was impossible To secure a
clear title to a homestead. Now
! the land is open for settlement and
hicn are going ever the trails by the
Muddy, the Anthracite. and Coal
Creek searching for the spot tnat
suits their fancy. At present the
section is like lock without a key:
= it has no roads. An excellent wagon
road extends from Somerset eight
miles up the North Fork TO the
mouth of the Muddy. Here it turns
and follows the Muddy north for
three miles and stops. From
Crested BNttc wagon road goes as
far rs what is known as the Horse
Ranch" distance of probably
fourteen miles. At one time an
appropriation was made to extend
this road to Somerset. The money
was spent and The results are four
miles of useless road and II fine case
of being lost if one follows il.
The Utes started trail from the
"Horsc Raucl' to the land along
the Muddy and finished it although
no appropriations We're made. The
trail is in good condition for travel
ing on horseback and one of the
present settlers in the district, Mr..
Geo. Schaffer, has broken road to
his ranch, which lies at the foot OF
Marsalcne mountain, by following
the trail almost the entire distance.
Ranches in the valleys OF the Muddy,
Anthracite and North Fork have
been located for ten or fifteen years
and although the farthest is not over
sixteen miles from Somerset the
county has always refused to build
more than eight miles OF road.
Last spring the bridges crossing the
Muddy and Anthracite were carried
away and no money can he secured
to replace them, consequently hum
dreds of tons of hay will be allowed
to rot until these settlers can repl;lce
the bridges from their individual
pockets,
The prospective settler may satisfy
r himself with regard TO climatic con-
ditions. AT the iuncture of the
Muddy and the North Fork and on
the plateaus lying close the winters
are mild, the summers long and
rainfall plentiful. The elevation is
between 1000 and 1900 feet. Irri-
cation is not a necessity, indeed ii
is impossible TO tell from the stand
of hay whether fed is irrigated ol
not

1t is well known fact that all her
bivorous animals will lick the hands
or civilized people whenever they have
chance, the reason for this being the
salty taste impaired thru the blood by
their diet to the skin of human beings.
This fact has been taken advantage of
oy the meanest man in Ocala, who is
TOO stingy to buy soap. Whenever his
hands became unbearably dirty-to
other people-he would go to the zoo
and stick his front feet thru the fence.
Whereupon the deer-poor, innocent
animals-would lick the top layers of
DIRT on his dingy paws. Doubtless, the
deer would have died in a few weeks
more, but Hamp Chambers got on to
the scheme and is now laying for that
piker with spiked club that makes
Teddy's big stick look like a rattan
cane.
