described as perfect maze of con-

tions to and variations from the orig
inal, AS many as fourteen variations
of "The Star Spangled Banner" are
noted. accompanied by gradual pro-
cess of polishing and modification.
The year in which America" was

to the water until he has first obtain
ed title ito he land
To remedy this condition, the last
session of the legislature passed an
amendment providing that irrigation
districts should have power to lease
or rent the use of water and to con-
tract for its delivery to settlers, and
further contract with the settler that
upon receiving full title to his lands
and upon payment of his proportion
ate share of bond assessments, the
lands shall be included within the
district and be entitled to all its
rights and privileges.
The commissioner was furnished
copy of the irrigation district laws of
Colorado and the amendment refer
red to, and the high character of
Colorado irrigation districts was urg-
ed upon. the commissioner as a rea-
son for recognizing these contracts.
The general land office is aiding in
efforts to work out some plan where
by government lands may be included
and bonded within irrigation dis
tricts. Important private reclamation
projects are in allegiance pending the
enactment of some such law and
partial solution of the problem will
be an aid to the reclamation of arid
lands in states having irrigation dis
trict laws, such as Colorado.

In connection with the Stock show
a great beef congress will be held for
the purpose OF discussing the reduc-
tion in the beef supply of the United
States and the means which may be
employed to induce the farmers of
the arid region to engage more ex-
tensively in cattle growing.
The occupation OF a large part OF
the old range by homesteaders has
driven the cattle men out; but the
homesteaders have not engaged in
breeding and growing live stock ex-
cept upon very small scale. The
problem is to make these homestead
ers and other arid region farmers
recognize the advantage to them of
engaging more extensively in the cat
tie business in connection with ordi-
nary farming. Thus the beef con-
gress promises to be an occasion of
much interest to farmers as well as
dealers in live stock.
The Beef congress, the Stock show
and the Apple show. which is to oc-
cur next week, will make January
month of special interest to the peo-
pie of Denver.-Denver Republican.
