could be made productive.
Colorado has enough coal reserves
to supply the entire middle West from

but a very small production is being
made towards that supply for reasons

The suit was brought by the Pioneer
Irrigation Company. which owns 1000
acres of land on the Republican riv,

braska under the same stream. 1t is
contended by the company's attorney,
Edwin II. Parks, that inasmuch as
Colorado streams have their sources
in the mountainous forest reserves
owned by the government, the state
does not own the water and must di
vide with others. The outcome of the
suit will have an important bearing
