prises gave him a national reputation,
and for the last thirty years he has
been the foremost irrigation engineer
of the country. His services have
been in request in all parts of the
arid west.
Mr.. Nettleton was state engineer un-
der Governors Grant and Eaton and
was n member of the first state capitol
commission. When the United States
government began the investigation Of
irrigation, Mr.. Nettleton was made
consulting engineer and acted in that
capacity as long as the investigation
lasted, from 1889 to 1893
After that he was sent to Europe
two or three times to investigate the
irrigation systems there, the manner
of reforesting denuded tracts of land
and to study the best methods of pre-
venting destruction of forests. The
last Of these trips was made about two
years ago, when he came back from
Spain with many new ideas. For the
last two years he has been irrigation
expert with the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture. His last report
was on the reservoir system of the
Cache In Poudre valley. This year he
had been devoting his time to the
study of the management of canals
and the losses by seepage.
Mrs. Nettleton and one daughter sur
vive him. His only son died in Chey-
enne last fall. His daughter is the
wife of w. n. Pickard, an attorney
Of Kansas City, formerly Of Pueblo.
She was last night notified of the
death. 1t is likely that the body will
be taken to Kansas City for inter-
ment.
