with more system and less expense
Teams are paid 50 90 a ton for the

or two rises in the road, but nothing
that could be called hill
This wonderful deposit of iron oxide
of zinc grows bigger all the time, in
fact, it is 50 big that we hardly realize
it yet. A tremendous dyke fiftytwo
feet across of solid mineral, uniform in
color and content and of the most desir-
able form of the particular mineral that
. war-msd world wants right now. No
wonder the fortunate owners of the
lease are strsining every nerve to get
the ore to market.
We learned yesterday that a recent
cross cut Of the vein showed sixty five
feet of solid uniform 81 TO 30 per cent
iron oxide of zinc. The new shaft to be
completed this week, will enable thirty
teams to be loaded regularly, since the
ore is either taken in surface quarry ing
or raised by a winze. The county has a
road gang working at the upper Spring
creek canon and the company has a
force of men on at the lower end.
Big business is gravitating that way,
and the activity is causing much interest
in other mines of the locality. Clear to
Italian Peaks, prospectors are pouring
in and several large mining deals are
pending

Estimates differ as to the size of the
annual hay cut in the county. Some
estimate it at hundred thousand tons,
but this is rather high. The total head
of stock in the county, taking the
assessors figures of 30, 900 cattle, and
adding the young stock not counted with
horses, mules and sheep, would give US
between fifty and sixty thousand head
as a grand aggregate. 1t takes from a
ton TO a ton and half of hay to winter
stock cattle, more for milk cows, and
horses and from twelve to fifteen thous-
and tons are usually sold as baled hay.
This might account for 100, 900 tons, but
probably the cut is little short of that.
The crop this year is reported of extra
quality, but starts little short from
lack of time to grow. Before the end
of August, when the harvest is on in
earnest, the full growth will undoubted-
ly be attained.
Our proud record of forty years
without a crop failure" is fully sup
ported by the 1915 product, which will
be worth close to a million dollars for
hay alone.

HOUSE SQUARE; MOST NECESSARY

Plans are rapidly maturing for the

News-Champion some weeks ago. At
the meeting of the county commits

sidered, these bids being upon specifi-
cations drawn by Architect Robertson
of Pueblo.
The proposed building will set be-
tween the court house and jail, occupy
ing the ground of the frame now used
as a storage place. The basement will
be the full size of the structure, 2lx37
feet, and will contain the best and mort

The Colorado State Normal is taking
bids for remodelling of the assembly
room or chapel. The original design
contemplated using the entire north side
of the second floor for this purpose, but
need of additional class rooms made "a
desirable to partition off two such on
east end, thus reducing the capacity of
the chapel. As attendance has grown
it is found necessary to at once take out
these partitions and adopt the original
plans. Two little dressing rooms will
be built ON this east side. The finishing
