SNOWY RANGE ROAD is ASSURED
Supervisor of Medicine Bow Forest Au-
thority for Statement That Road
to Lakes Will be Built.

That the summer Of 1920 will see
construction work upon. and perhaps
the completion, of an automobile high
way from Laramie TO the lakes on the
Snowy Range region. is the statement
made by Supervisor Earl $. Peirce of
the Medicine Bow national forest.
This announcement hould stimulate in
terest in the project of building Il high
way to the top of the range from this
side, and bringing about IA connection of
the two, which would allow of travel
between this valley and Laramie by n
direct route over the mountains and
through a region of wonderful scenic
beauty. Laramie believes that a road
from there to the Snowy Range would
he of great benefit to that city through
its attraction for tourists, and there is
no reason why a IA in from his side
would not be of equal benefit to Sara
toga.
1t is said that about seven miles of
road from the Ten Mile ranger station
would reach the lakes tn this side of
the range and that this could easily
be built in along the south side of
South Brush Greek on a Z to s per
cent grade, and that no great difficult
ty would be found in building from
that point to a connection with the
Laramie highway at Brooklyn Lake, a
distance of four to five miles.
An article in this weeks Laramie Re-
: publican contains the following state
ment by Supervisor Peirce concerning
the proposed roa from Laramie.
'The people OF Laramie and Albany
county will be glad to learn that n
good automobile road from Centennial
to Brooklyn Lake is to be constructed
this summer, from funds contributed
Jointly by Albany county INT the gov
ernment.
"As many of us know, we have in
the Snowy Range region of the Med
icine Bow national forest one of the
finest and most beautiful camping and
r%ecreational areas to he found any
where in America, which although it
is; situated almost at u dooryard-
being only nine miles from Centen-

for automobile travel in the area.

Snowy Range has been realized for
a long time and several efforts have
been made in the past to fix up the
old road, but as the grades on this old
road are too steep. a new road follow

HESSIAN FLY WITH Us.
Annual Appearance of Wheat Pest in
Kansas Fields Announced.

Manhattan, Kan, March 31.-Over
a considerable part of the eastern half
of Kansas, and including a few coun-
ties in the western half of the state,
much of the volunteer wheat growing
in old stubble fields is infested with
the Hessian fly. according to George
A. Dean, entomologist of the Kansas
experiment station. If this volunteer
wheat is not turned under, either with
a pillow or lister. before the first week
in April, it is almost sure to prove a
source of great danger to the many
fields of wheat which are now practi-
cally free from fly, he says.
Since there is less acreage of
wheat this year particularly in the
eastern half of the state, it means
that many stubble fields containing
volunteer wheat were left standing
last fall. Many of these fields are still
untouched and the volunteer wheat
growing in them is a veritable hotbed
for the fly.
