priated for Denver. and the rest for
his particular friends. The governor
stated that he signed these bills be-
cause they took the money out of the
general revenue fund.
This is true and 1t is also true that
there is a general belief that in some
way the representative from Denver
and his particular friend were tipped
of to the fact that if they appropriate
ed money to their roads from the gem
eral revenue fund. he would sign the
bills II is also fact that no one
but the Denver delegation and the
Governors intimate friends had any
such tip.
The governor was facing the crowd
OF men most interested in the expen-
diture of the internal improvement
fund. The 117s delegates are the
men who are trying to build roads in
Colorado. They believe that in some
way the governor was equally re-
sponsible with the legislature for the
fact that this money is unavailable.
Hence. they gave him the reception
that was in their hearts.
That we have no road connecting

Last Saturday at the regular
monthly meeting of the Fremont
County horticultural society, the
largest attended meeting in malF
months, there. being over fifty mem
bers present "a motion looking IT,
wards the forming of pest distri1
was unanimously passed.
The following committee was named
to take the necessary steps towards
the forming of this district with fun

pointed subcommittee to look after
some Of the preliminary details con-
sisting of G. II. Sale. A. s. raylor.-J-
W. Augustine and P. H. Troutman.
This new law governing the contrs
of agricultural and horticultural dis
tricts OF all kinds, fills long felt
need Up to this time the growers who
kept all kinds of insects and scale
out of their own orchards had ne
protection from their neighbors, whs
in some instances refused to prote1
their orchards. thus spreading the
pests broadcast
Ninety-eight per cent of our grow
ers are indefatigable in their work
towards the control and obliteration
of the injurious insect and scale pests.
1t is the other two per cent OF the
orchards. however. that DO the iarlrr-
and from this very small minority
arises the trouble that costs the val
ley thousands of dollars annually.
This new law gives the growers Of
any district the power to combine
themselves together in what is known
as a pest district. the supervision or
which is under the control OF the state
entomoiogist and his deputies. In the
case OF contagious diseases or inju--
ious pests being discovered in an or
chard. the law gives the state enti-
mologist. through his deputies. power
to go into any such infected orchard
and take the necessary steps towards
the control of said pests, porivding
the owner of the grounds refuses 10
take care OF his property.
