red clover seed from the company farm
adjoining Holly. the Zirkle Co. of Garden
City. Kan. being the purchasers of the

his sales are in the neighborhood Of
$4,000. The seed is selling at SO per
bushel of 60 pounds. and Mr.. Shiveley
estimates that when the entire field is
harvested and threshed, and this work is
being rapidly done, that the returns to
the farm from this product alone will be
in the neghborhood of $4,000 or that
he will have over 1000 bushels OF this
valuable seed. This crop of over 900
bushels will undoubtedly be the largest
single production ..by any one farm in this
or any other Western state. Red clover
is only reaching its popularity in the Wes,
at the present time. having long been
considered as worthless. The past few
years have proven it to be d very valu-
able stock food and many people are

Study Rocks and Water

So large part of the industries Of
Colorado is directly related to the devel-
opment of its mineral resources or water
resources that the work of the United
States Geological Survey is of special
Importance in this state. The fact that
the survey distributes each year over a
million reports and maps. and replies to
over 10000 letters indicates. in some
degree, the extent to which its conclu-
sions are sought.
Colorado in common with other public
land states, is getting a much larger
share of attention from the geologic
branch OF the federal survey than the
older states of the East. largely because
of the need of information for the olassi-
fication of lands.
The field work OF the survey includes
geologic, topograp phlc and water-resources
investigations. Tne work OF collecting
statistics and information on the mining
industry in connection with the precious
and semi-preoious metal resources of
Colorado and reporting on new mining
developments are to be published in the
volume Mineral Resources Of the United
States"
The topographic branch of the Geolog
ical Survey is engaged in mapping the
Longs Peak quadrangle, the Lay quad
rangle, and the Creede and Chrome
quadrangles. These quadrangles have
an approximate area of elo and $50
square miles. their length from north to
outh being about IS miles, and their
width from east to west about 2z miles
This work will include the detailed
surveys necessary to prepare map
which will show all rivers. towns, roads.
and railroads, as well as the surface
being shown by means Of l00-foot con-
tour lines. The completed maps will be
engraved on tire scale OF two miles to
one inch.
The water resources of the state of
Colorado are being studied by the Water
Resources Branch of the Survey. with
particular reference to the flow of sur
face waters. For this purpose | gag
ing stations are maintained in the Nilsson
ri river basin; 10 in the Arkansas river
basin; in the Rio Grande basin, and SO
in the Colorado river basin. at these
gaging stations the height, or stage. Of
the rivers is determined each day by local
observers or. at some places. by auto
matte cages. and measurements of the
discharge of the streams are made at
certain intervals by engineers of the
survey. The river flows thus determined
are used in connection with the design
construction, and maintenance of power
plants, irrigation projects, classification
of the public lands, investigation of Carey
Act selections, stream pollution, river
regulation, food control. water storage
seepege, and municipal water supplies.
Reports and maps based on the work
being done this season by the Geological
Survey will not be ISSUED for a year, and
some of them not for two years.
