NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING
ON QUARANTINE JULY 70

Recent scouting work to establish
the territory infested by the alfalfa
weevil has determined the fact that
this insect now infests territory not
heretofore known to be infested and
which is not covered by State Ento-
mologist Quarantine No. 8. This ter
ritory includes practically all OF
Delta county not now quarantined and
territory both north and south OF the
present quarantine area in Montrose
county. It is believed that unre.
stricted hauling and shipping Of hays
and straws from such territory would
be serious menace to the remainder
of Colorado, and to other states. 30 1t
therefore appears that the quarantine
area should be extended to cover all
territory known or thought to be In
tested.
In order that all may. understand
the conditions and that all interested
in the proposed quarantine may ap-
pear and be heard, notice is hereby
given that public hearings will be
held at the Montrose County Court
House at 2 p. m. July 22nd, 1920. and
at the Delta County Court House at

DEVELOPING coMauNiTv
INTEREST sTHRoUGH WOMEN

Probably NO one doubts the possi-
bilities Of the women developing COM
munity interest; but few realize how
Important Il 10 that the women tste
their part in its development through
the farm bureau. As has been sug.
gested, the farm bureau is like stool
supported by three legs; II one Of
the supports is withdrawn, the stool
can be made to stand up by resting It
against a wall, but its solidity is
gone The women of Colorado are as
necessary in developing the interest
Of Colorado in the farm bureau as any
other factor and we want to quote
few reasons why that is 80
Naturally, the home demonstration
agents are watching the work Of the
women and girls develop with little
more care and anxiety than they do
the work of the men and boys. But
this has been a noticeable fact, that
where the women have become very
much interested in project OF their
own, the mems work along widely DIFF
ferent lines has, in nearly every case,
been strengthened. The state leader
of women's work in Idaho said Just a
few days ago, 1.-THE mistake Of putting
all the stress on the mems work in
the first place in our state, and not
trying to secure the interest Of the
women has held back our farm bu.
reau about five. years. Where we
have active members we have our
strongest work in both lines.
The women in eleven counties in
Colorado are doing definite work
along five main lines Of interest.
When one woman 10 doing an espe-
cially interesting piece Of work IN
her home, through the suggestion re-
ceived at a meeting or through an
extension worker, either state or
county, she is demonstrator of that
work, and part Of her obligation
through the farm bureau is to pass
the good news along to her neighbors.
1t therefore follows that the eighty
one water systems put into as many
homes in Colorado last year have not
only lightened the drudgery in those
homes, but each is the most practical
and inspirational sot of lesson for
four or five neighbor women and men
who will be putting them in this year,
for reports Of the spread of this &C.
tivity are coming in steadily. And
SO It goes with the 600 odd iceless re.
frigerators and the kitchen cabinets
and high stools. In Fremont county,
where there is no demonstration
agent, the county chairman Of wom-
ems work has, through showing and
talking OF her own iceless refrigerator
gotten about twenty other women to
make similar ones. She has. upon re.
quest, mailed out between two and
three hundred home conveniences and
water system bulletins. The women
Of Fremont county have in that way

Evidence that the State Depart

issued last night by Joshua w.

the proposed change with either
him or a committee of business
men.
Mr.. Alexander said the State De-

the foreign trade work to the State
Department would mean its de-
struction.
'The business interests OF the

arise between government depart

together" said Secretary Alexander.
'The trade promotion service of
the Bureau of Foreign and Do

an agency to American business

that another department, already
