THE WORK DONE HERE

The valuable work of the bureau
of soils, of the United States depart
ment of agriculture, is evidenced ia
the report of the two observers who
undertook the work near Grand
Junction. The advance sheets of
their report, including two maps. in
color, give very valuable information
of the character of the soils of the
lower Grand valley in Colorado.
While the report is a record of act
ual conditions and results, rather
than a theoretical discussion OF what
ought to happen, the statements
made In regard to the soil conditions
are valuable not only to the people
of Grand valley, but also to those
of other regions. This is especially
true of alkalied lands, which have
been the special object of govern
mental investigation in many parts
of the state.
