every opportunity to develop.
When a area is once infected
the plant is soon dragged to all
parts of the farm. As with GER
tain other weeds that have be-
come general. most farmers are
paying but slight attention to
small patches, others are much
disturbed about the rapid
spread. and yet others are al
ready awake to the fact that
they have the weed almost gen.
eral upon their lands and are
now getting correspondingly
lessened yields of grain at a
much greater cost.
Quack-grass is not native Of
North Dakota. 1t is being in.
troduced by blown seeds,
by adulterated grass seeds aud
other farm seeds, in hay and
other forage shipped to new
localities; and is being planted
in new areas by means of i'm
properly cleaned seed grain,
improperly CO rposted manure
and through the dragging about
of the broken underground
stems upon harrows, plows, and
other implements. This grass
never dies out in fertile lands.
1t grows latest in autumn and
starts first of all grasses in the
spring. 1t forms a sod impene-
trable by other plants. 1t. can
crowd out bronze grass, alfalfa
or other cultivated plants. 9

CAREY ACT PROPOSITIONS.

Carey act projects have been n long
time coming to the Laramie plains,
but they have come to stay. The seq
regration made in tho vicinity of Wy
oming station is only the forerunner
of other enterprises of like nature.
There is plenty of government land
within the railroad grant on the Lar
annie plains and the best way TO take
II up for irrigation purposes is under
the Carey act. The price of the land
under this act Is only so cents per
acre and the matter of residence is
not particularly onerous. Water rights
are secured through longtime pay
ments and upon final proof and the
completion OF the fragments title
passes to the settler for both land and
water. When a certain percentage of
the land and water has been taken
up, the settlers themselves become the
managers of the entire project and car
ry 1t On thereafter under their own
rules me regulations, sanctioned by
the state law.
The Republican expects to see all
the land to the south of the river, EN-
tracing the Homer and other ranches,
finally brought under irrigation
through the operation of the district
irrigation law and the Carey act. Mr..
Homer mas the means to handle this
proposition himself should he take the
notion to round out his business career
by the development of such a tremen-
dous irrigation proposition. Surveys
made in the past prove conclusiyely
that all this land may be reclaimed by
storing water farther up the Big Lar
annie. Possibly Sportsman's lake and
Steamboat lake might be utilized in
much the same am as it Is pro-
posed to use Lake James and Lake
Hattie, although they are not large
depressions. The Homer field con.
tains some of the best lands in the
state, lands that will raise anything
known to this altitude, and the broad
areas lie beautifully for irrigation.
1t needed the coming OF a company
thoroughly conversant with irrigation
propositions in all their ramifications
TO awaken the people of the Laramie
plains TO the tremendous possibilities
at their very doors.
