worked out; that railroads have not

takes place, should so enthuse every
man with our wonderful opportuni-

come this spring.

and when these thousands of acres
of good farming land have farmer
residing on every eighty acres, all
other irrigated districts can refer to
this locality as the most successful
and prosperous farming section of
the entire west. By seeding twenty
acres to alfalfa; twenty acres to
field peas; twenty acres to small
grain; ten acres to potatoes and the
balance of the eighty acres to sugar
beets, the owner of these crops will
be very busy man, and we believe
will realize as much money from
the sale of the crops, as is now re-
ceived from the sale of all crops

IMPORTANT RAILROAD
MEETING is HELD IN
CENTER; ALL TO HELP

Mr.. w. j. Galligan, President of
the San Luis Valley Sugar Beet
Company and committee of bus
mess men from Monte Vista were
present at a mass meeting in Cen
ter Thursday of this week. The
meeting was called to act upon a
proposition from the Sugar Com
pany for cooperation in making
the sugar beet industry success.
Mr.. Galligan stated that if the
people of this locality would give
them bonus of $25,0O0.0O cash;
deeds to the railroad right of way,
terminals etc, between Monte Vista
and Center, and sign up for the
growing of 1000 acres of beets
north of the Rio Graude river; that
the sugar company would construct
and operate a standard gauge rail
road between these towns and
operate the Monte Vista factory.
February 1st is the time limit
for accepting their offer, and it be-
hooves every person to use his ut
most efforts to secure this new
enterprise and much needed de-
velopment.
Three thousand dollars in cash
and one thousand acres of beets in
addition to amounts already sub
scribed are needed to close this
deal with the Sugar Company, and
every person who has not contracted
to assist in this matter, should
notify the finance or acreage COM
mittee at once of amounts they
will subscribe.
If the additional $1,000 and one
thousand acres of beets can be
secured before Saturday, February
LIST, work of railroad construction
will begin at once, and by this de-
velopment the rural population will
be greatly increased and land val
ues advanced. This will make adj
ditional business for both Monte
Vista and Center, and make it pos
sible for all to share in the pros
perity that is sure to come from
the development of the sugar beet
industry and railroad building.

ROAD TO PLATORO
DEMANDS ACTION

Have you ever stopped to consider
what the near future has in store
for Monte Vista If we wake up and
grasp the opportunity that is pre-
sented to us? Do you know that
within few miles of us is being
opened up mineral district that is
attracting wide attention from the
mining men of Colorado and other
states. and that is going to be the
scene of an enormous influx of min
ing men in the spring?
Monte Vista is the nearest rail-
road point from which access is
logical, and the natural place to un-
load and freight supplies into this
district. One of the important
things to be done, however, is the
building of a better wagon road from
Monte Vista to Jasper, and the
building of a wagon road from Jas
per to Sumner (there is none at
present.. The wagon road from
Monte Vista to Jasper is passable
now and is the route over which all
freighting has been done in the
past. 1t has not the miles of boggy,
swamp ground to cover as has the
proposed road from Alamosa, nor
has it the impossible features of the
proposed road from Del Norte which
would be great for scenery but not
much for freighting. The immedi-
ate pressing need, however, is for a
road from Jasper to Sumner, the alb
sence of which will materially retard
the development of this district.
The advantages of our city should
be published to the outside world,
as place to come to by rail when
going to the Platoro district and as
a proper place for family to reside
while the husband delves into the
rich veins of mother earth for the
competence that will make them
prosperous and happy. Have you
to the merchants. banks, lveries,
teamsters and property owners of
our city?
Our neighboring towns are ad-
vertising their advantages as the
place to stop and unless we get busy
a large per cent of the business that
rightly belongs to us will be per-
suaded to stop elsewhere.
What Colorado Springs is to
Cripple Creek, Monte Vista should
be to Platoro. Opportunity knocks
at every mans door at least once in
life time; today It is knocking at
the portals of Monte Vista and cry
ing in no uncertain voice build n
road to the new Eldorado."

A MINIMUM WAGE

The idea of minimum wage
fixed by law is quite popular, but
will not prove satisfactory when
such a law is attempted to be put
into execution. Wages can no
more be fixed by statute than the
price of corn. A girl or woman
who cannot earn the minimum
wage will fail to get job, and it
will be for the employer to decide
the matter.
The great experimentation of
Filene brothers in Boston starts
all of its women and girl employees
at " week, Notwithstanding the
fact that other houses and other
employers can secure help at
much lower figure. The company
does this, partly on the ground
that it gives them more efficient
helpers, and partly on the ground
that they do not think self-sup-
porting woman can live in Boston
on less than 81 week.
This is business and not a
charity establishment.

past Of the valley to take up the
MASTER of prevention of hog cholera,
MT only in this section of the
ccuntry, but also in all parts of
the tate where hogs are raised.
~ a result of the meeting, it was
reeolved to form a protective asso-
oiatlon consisting of farmers and
merchants to 60 into the matter of
pFssGntion of the disease, and to
taka It up with the Legislature in
an e6ort to procure better legisla-
tioa In regard to the importation

= appropriation for the esta blish-
ment of an institute to manufac-
tufe hog serum and virus to stop
the spread of the disease.
= mass meeting will be held
January 29th at which time one or
tNo Veterinarians will be present.
1ho matter will be taken up in de
tn31 q this time and active measures
vii be taken toward improving
cooditions in respect to the cholera.
Ile meeting Tuesday evening
dioolosed the fact that the disease
srlnpg hogs in this valley is an
ev3fo greater magnitude than has
hoGetofore been considered. 1t is
0olnated that in 1910, 100000
vesth of hogs were sold in the
voEey, while during the past year
not over $4,000 was realized by
~ hrmers from their hogs, in
sp61e of the fact that there is an
Gho6dance of feed, and that field
peoG are now lying in the fields
and going to waste for lack of
stoek.
Tie state has some excellent
hws in regard to checking cholera,
bat in the San Luis Valley,
16o attention has been paid by
e6o1or the state officers or local
slook raisers to seeing that these
~ are strictly enforced. 1t is
0Qpesire of those who are inter
eg11 in stock raising to see that
z Legislature takes some steps
tfd improving conditions in
WD valley by more strict en-
tpoment of the sanitary laws, and
slpo 10 establish an institute simi-
hpb those in operation in other
stDs for the production of virus.
lille no active steps toward
e. end have been taken as yet,
it the opinion of many that the
g Luis valley would be suit
place for this institute on
annt of the large number of
- raised here. 1t has been dem
esated that one healthy hog is
Ho1nired to furnish virus sufficient
tusllre twenty-five diseased hogs,
1t is evident that large num-
bmyof hogs will be required to

hogs in the state, and the saving
from this has run into large fig
ures.
1t is clearly evident, from the
discussion at the meeting Tuesday
evening, that the San Luis Valley
is better adapted for the raising of
hogs than any other part of the
state, by reason of the immense
pea crop that is raised here an
nually, and the short time that is
required to fatten hogs in this part
of the state. For this reason, the
prosperity of the valley depends
in large measure upon the attitude
that the farmers take toward this
question.
The point was made that Colo
RADIO is not the only state to suffer
from this plague among the hogs,
for the state of Ohio lost between
four and five million dollars worth
of hogs, while the losses in other
states have run into money very
fast, and, with the markets as they
have been for the past two or three
years, the hog industry will un-
doubtedly be big factor in the
prosperity of any community that
can raise them with profit.
1t is hoped that as many as are
able will attend the mass meeting
on the 29th of the month, and hear
the reports of the committees. A
committee consisting of R. G.
Breckenridge, R. R. Mitchell and
James A. Kelly was appointed to
draft such sanitary and appropriate
measure to be submitted to the
legislature as may seem to be nec-
essary, and committee of five, of
which Cephus Bowsher is the
chairman, was appointed to arrange
for the organization of protective
association for this locality. These
matters will be taken up and acted
on at the mass meeting and it is
the hope of those interested in the
stock business that the entire val
ley may be enlisted in this move
ment which is destined to save
thousands of dollars for the farm
ers in this part of the state.
