Morgan, Logan and Sedgwick counties
are adopting the system. No more
progressive move has been made in
Garfield county than this for many
years. The Roaring Fork and Cattle
creek farmers are wide awake and up
to date men, who mean to carry on
scientific farming and irrigation on
the best and most approved plan.
Garfield county has other localities
when this need be but adopted to
bring in vast fertile tracts of land for

The district system will also result
in an immense saving by preventing

resulting from private control of

will Investigate Poisonous Weeds

Through the influence of E. II.
Grubb, Dr. George H. Glover of the
Agricultural college at Fort Collins,
was appointed special investigator
agong other things to investigate the
poison weeds on the range on the
Western Slope. Doctor Glover has
been in this vicinity several days in
the region of the Thompson creeks,
and came down Saturday in time to
attend the meeting of the stock asso
citation held here that day, and had
in his possession number of poison

In some of the ravines where there
is plenty of moisture, he has found

count of the peculiar shape of the

The Larkspur seldom does any harm
after it is in bloom. 1t grows mostly
on the north side of the mountain and
at quite an elevation. none of it be-

being poisoned by larkspur will i'm.

has given rise no doubt to the i'm.
preston that the water of certain
springs and lakes are poisonous.
Doctor Glover recommends that
stockmen familiariZe themselves with
this plant, both before and after it
has blossomed. and try to avoid this
as much as possible, especially when
driving cattle over the country during
a rain or snow storm
When an animal is found showing
the symptoms of poisoning, they should
