GEO. G. ANDERSON'S PAPER ON
IRRIGATION MATTERS
VALLEY BEST In COUNTRY
History and Development Of 1rriga-
ton Traced In Paper Read Be
fore American Society OF
Civil Engineers.-Two
Greeley Men Praised

A good boost for Greeley was
made by George G Anderson, the en-
gineer who Planned and supervised
the construction of the new city
waterworks. in paper read before
the recent convention in Denver OF
the American Society of Civil Engi-
ners His topic was Irrigation" and
he chose the Greedy district for a
large part of his discourse.
1.-The valley of the Cache la Pou-
dre," he said, is today as fine body
of agricultural land devoted to ordi-
nary farming products as can be
found. not only in the arid region.
but anywhere throughout the United
States within the range of its pos
sible products.
ut represents the best that has
been accomplished within the state
OF Colorado: what has been done
there. can be and is being done
throughout the state. and it has been
done solely by private enterprise.
"The work that has been achieved
in that valley has really formed the
bases for most irrigation develop
ment, and not only has the practical
result been the best and highest type
of home building. which Mr.. Newell
has pointed out to be the ultimate
aim of the governmental works OF re-
clamation. but there has been built
out of the district code of laws
which largely forms the foundation
of all irrigation law throughout the
arid region"
In tracing the history OF the de-
velopment of irrigation in this valley
Mr.. Anderson gives considerable ere
dit to Former Governor B. H. Eaton
as one of the pioneer builders of
canals to irrigate the bench or up
lands of the valley. The work Of
B. d. Sanborn IN pushing the matter
of storage of irrigation water is also
highly commended.
A fairly good history and descript-
ion of the North Poudre Irrigation
enterprise IS given.
Speaking of the reservoirs in the
valley, wholly dependent upon the
Poudre river for their supply of stor-
age MIR. Anderson says there are rs
in all, with combined capacity of
100000 acre feet. The best estimate
is that these reservoirs are worth
$1,000. 900 to the valley each year.
Ten years only he says has been
required to build up the most per-
feet system of storage in the United
States. This has not been accom-
plished by large expenditures of
money. nor because of unusually
favorable locations for reservoirs,
nor was it wholly by accident that
the people of this valley took up this
line of irrigation development. Con-
ditions forced them to it, They did
not wait for the general government
or the state to bund reservoirs for
them 'While this system is by
no means completed. the owners
have already reaped much larger re-
wards for their labors than they ex-
pected, reaching into the millions of
dollars"
The development of Boyd lake by
Mr.. Sanborn is also mentioned as
striking example Of what private en-
terprise has done.

HAD QUIT WORK READY TO GIVE UP IN DESPAIR
Restored to Health By Vinol

Restored to Health By Vinol
 "I was sick, rundown and finally had to give up work. After trying a number of remedies and several phy- sicians, was just about ready to give up in despair. saw Vinol ad- vel tised and decided to try 1t, and 1t has done more good for me than all other means combined. It has built me up and restored my strength until I now feel twenty years younger, and am able to attend to my work again as usual" Job Jeavons, 1O36 Lind street, Wheeling, w. Va.
 The reason Vinol is so successful in such cases is because 1t contains tonic iron and all of the strengthening blood-making and bodybuilding ele- ments of cod liver oil, but no oil.
 Vinol is unexcelled as a strength creator for old people, delicate children, weak, rundown persons, and after sickness-and is the best known rem edy for coughs, colds and bronchitis.
 We return your money if Vinol fails to give satisfaction.
