RUSH OF HoMEsEEKERs IN FER
TILE VALLEYS NEAR THE
UTAH LINE.
D. AND R. G. MAY BUILD
LARGE IRRIGATION ENTERPRISES
ON FOOT IN WESTERN MONT
ROSE COUNTY.

Dcnycr.-So great has been the In
vasion of homeseekers into Montrose
county during past months that the
people there are clamoring for greater
railroad facilities. From the town oi
Norwood, San Miguel county, on tho
Rio Grande Southern, TO the utaii
line. there is n great stretch OF fertile
territory. now being rapidly put under
irrigation, but having no railroad IA
cili,ies whatever. II Is probable that
in due time the Denver a. Rio Grande
railroad will build an extension into
Montrose county.
There are innumerable big irrisa'
ton and Improvement projects on ioot
in the Naturita- Paradox valley. Al
present this land Is reached by way OF
Norwood. through the town OF Placer
vile. In this extensive valley there
are 100000 acres of rich land. capable
of bearing any product when water Is
applied.
The Naturita Canal and Water Com
pany is no" preparing 10 irrigate I.ooo
acres Of land. a new company. the
Empire Irrigation Company. capital
lied by residents OF Des Moines. Iowa,
is preparing to build new reservoir
and enlarge other reservoirs and
bitches II has acquired, SO that within
three years 1t will put 100000 acres OF
land under water.
Residents of Norwood and the town
OF Nucla have put between 1900 and
1000 acres under cultivation and plans
are now under way that within two
or three years will place 10000 acres
under water. DR.. Cross Of Telluride
and Galloway brothers OF Norwood
are promoting a big project which will
ultimately irrIeate $4,000 acres. This
work will begin about June /.
The Dolores river does not run
lengthwise of the valley. but cuts II
into two sections, known as East Para
dox and West Paradox. In West Para
dox the Paradox Valley Irrigation and
Land Company is about to irrigate
$4,000 acres. II is putting in reser
voir this season and will follow with
another next year. The water for this
project comes from the La Sale noun
tains in Utah. Very little Of the water
in the valley is taken from the Dolores
river.
The Redlands company is still an
other outfit which is now getting ready
TO water 5000 acres of land. The
Lilly Lands Company will put 10000
acres under cultivation according tc
present plans. The Montrose Orchard
Company has put out 800 solid acres
II land in fruit trees.

Here is a roof that defes uniformity;
at the same time. it is pleasing and at
tractive. The old-fashioned idea that
both sides or both ends Of a roof must
be exactly alike to be hi keeping has
been exploded. Some uniformity in
design must be maintained. but It can
be and should be done without too
much sameness.
The rooms lay out very nicely In
this plan and there is very little waste

There is one bedroom in this house
that will remind New EngIanders Of
some Of the old Puritan homes. It
occupies the whole wide gable over
the reception room and kitchen and It
is II feet wide by IS feet in length,
with two splendid clothes closets at
the back end and pleasant old-fash-
ioned dormer window in the front
Dormer windows are all right for ef-
feet, even if they are not to be de-
pended upon for light and sunshine,
but this room does not depend on the
dormer window for either. It is splen-
didly well lighted by a triple window
in the gable end that will invite sun
shine While occupying this room Il
is easy TO imagine yourself living IN
the eighteenth century in some little
New England town and you naturally
expect pumpkin pies and doughnuts
for breakfast in the morning.

tion and common sense. Sometimes a
straightaway plain roof fits a house
better than a much more expensive
affair OF different shape could pos

houses require a little extra expense
