LIFE IN THE
COLORADO RA|NBEL7

The lack of population in this
country is due mainly to the short
age of surface water. If man
wants to keep stock he must dig
for water, as only part of the
wear can surface water be de-
pended upon to supply water
enough for stock. Water can be
found at from a few feet to 300
feet below the surface, and there
is usually enough water to en-
ploy a wind mill to bring the
water to the surface. Those who
intend to settle in this country
should prospect for water before
locating, and then settle where
they find good supply, no matter
what are the other conditions.
Men who settled few years
ago where water was convenient
are still in the country while those
who chose fine, level land, thus
putting the water question aside,
are all in some other place now.
1t is important that men with
small herds get settled soon, as a
boom in the cattle industry may
put the grazing into the hand o. o.,
large cattle companies, which VIII
hinder the development OF the
country until cattle-raislng on a
large scale ceases to be profitable
If small herds could occupy the
country, better cattle could ot
raised, because each man could
raise feed for the calves, and FOL

companies, considering feeding
Improbable, would allow then
