THE SOUTHWEST TRAIL


Colorado's advantages for the home
seeker are graphically presented in the
June number of The Southwest. Trail,
the official agricultural publication Of
Rock Island lines. The entire issue is
devoted to Colorado, there being an ex-
haustive review Of crop, livestock and
mining production.
Much space is devoted to the eastern
section of the state, in which farming
has been effectively built up through
the efforts of the Rock Island. Detailed
information from expert sources is Civ
en- as to methods of soil culture and
crop production under light rainfall.
The company IS conservative policy in
handling this subject has resulted in an
influx of permanent population, as tho
new settlers understood from the COM
pany's agricultural literature exactly
what are the conditions precedent to
success.
