very sensitive and uncertain and Is
subject to wide fluctuations owing to
financial conditions. At present the
demand for silver in London for ex-
port to the far east is nil, owing to
the risks of shipment and also the
high price for silver, at which price
the eastern exchanges do not warrant
purchases of silver for the present.
The present demand for silver in Lon
don is for coinage purposes and al
ready the English mint has bought
largely and there have also been ex-
ecuted large orders for continental de-
mands. 1t is likely that such de-
mand from various countries will con-
tinue, but these orders are very un-
certain, and with the large arrival Of
silver by American shipments and sill
yer being pressed for sale, the price
has been forced down. 1t is probable
that there will be considerable cur
tailment in the production of silver,
owing to the closing down of certain
copper-silver bearing mines, and also
owing to the difficulty of obtaining
certain material necessary for smelt-
ing and refining operations.
Yours truly,
F. C. GILBERT,
Manager.

that of last year owing to the in
creased rural population as well as
that of the town. Several rev resi-
dences bespeak easy money and tasty
ideas of the owners. On the edge of
the town going north and close to
the turning point going east is the
fine Bay residence and barns. the main
Bay holdings being on the mesa,
where the land is very productive.
While ali old timers are aware, we
will state for the benefit of newcom-
ers that the town is named after Mr..
Bay. A short distance beyond the
Bay residence is splendid stone
cottage that would do credit to most
any city and on beyond that are 9TH
ers Of attractive features.
Some twenty-five years ago the
writer started by rig for Pagosa
Springs but only got as far as the
Piedra when heavy and continued
rains caused the party we were with
to turn about and return home. Since
that time we have not had the pleas
ure Of seeing the intervening country,
that portion between the Piedra and
Pagosa being entirely new territory,
therefore we anticipated the trip to
Pagosa with much pleasure. The
mesa east of Bayfield, is one continu-
Gus field of grain and hay with many
prosperous farmers tilling the soil,
while the basins and gulches travers-
ed by the highway show that most of
the available land is under cultivation.
OF course we have always known that
the eastern part of the county was
well adapted to farmers owning cat
tie as the range is extensive right at
the doors of the settlers.
A short stop at the Piedra to
quench the thirst of our machines and
we continued to Pagosa, passing Dyke
at 6 in the afternoon and reaching
Pagosa about Z, after a thoroughly
enjoyable day through a beautiful
section.
