Presuming that everybudy s interested In the mlueral resources of the ftock Mouutain Htates and Terrltorles, I will try and present to your readers as real and practleal n siate- mentof the Kerber Creek District, and the county In which it s situated, as my ability will admit of. Everything pertaining to gold and stlver mining sounds Iikn fictlon to one not accustomed to the practica! workings and the surroundings nf that phase of Industry; 80, If the statements I make border on the wouderful, It will be becuugg they nra also fact. In order to give a clear understanding of the Kerber Creek District, Its location and surroundings should bu referred to. By re- ferring to s map of Colorado it wil be seen that BAGUACHE COUNTY Is situated south of Leadville,~Chaffe County lying between Sagunche County and Laka County, fn which Leadville is located. ‘The eastern boundary lne of Saguache County runs along the summitof the Sangre de Christo Range,~tha most beautlfuland the grandest range of mountains In the United States, and probably in the world. The witl- tude of the range Is from 12,000 to 14,000 feet above the sea; and itis a continuons range of majestic penks, running from Foncha P’ass, In Chaffee County, down into New Mexico, a distance of 150 miles. Lying at tho base of this mizhty and majestic wall of mountain-peaks s the San Lutls Valley, ranglng from five infles wide at the head to fifty miles lower down, ‘The valley stretches to the South, and Into New Mexlco, 2001miles, On the west the valley is hemmed in by the Saguache Range, the Cochotopn 1lills, and the San Juan Mountains, ‘Thisis indeed n iost beautiful valley, the greater portion of which is of rich soll and Is thickly dotted with farms, or ** ranches” ns they arc termed. Therels little rainfall fn the vailey, and the farmers depend upon the little streams which flow down from the mountalns with which to irrigate the soil. Wheat and oatsare ralsed abundantly; and hay, the main crop, 18 fuxurfant and rich. It possesses much more nutriment than Iiinols hay, for the good reason that thaere Is little ralnor dewto bleach It. There arethou- sands of farmers it this valley, wmost of whom nre Eastern people, but too conservu- tive to dig for gold and silver. 'Chey nrebet- ter satlsfied to ralse stock nnd feed the miners, and sell their hay for $100 per ton, than risk the uncertaiuty of findingabonanza among the rucks.
