MANY STATES INTERESTED. 



Many of the states are taking an interest in the Colorado 

 National Apple Exposition. This interest will mean a very 

 lively competition for the prizes that are to be offered and 

 assures the success of the show from an exhibition stand- 

 point. 



The various states that are contemplating making ex- 

 hibits at the big national show are now reserving space. Every 

 consideration and concession possible will be offered to those 

 sections by the Colorado people, as the larger the competi- 

 tion the more valuable will be the demonstration of what 

 can be done in apple growing in America. 



Free storage has been provided for all exhibits in less 

 than carload classes, but in consideration of the large prizes 

 for these exhibits and the commercial value to the exhibitor 



of having a show at the time of the Western Fruit Jobbers' 

 Convention, it was deemed advisable not to store the. car 

 loads free, because of the immense amount of space that 

 would be taken by growers who had in mind the increase 

 they were to get in the price of their product more than the 

 exhibition feature. 



NOTICE TO IRRIGATION MEN. 



Every irrigator, irrigation engineer and those who find It 

 necessary to purchase supplies for irrigation enterprises, 

 should write to C. D. Butchart, 501 Mercantile Bldg., Denver, 

 Colorado, for a copy of his new catalogue describing North- 

 western Iron Headgates, which aret made in all sizes to suit 

 all conditions. The day of the wooden headgate is over, and 

 when the time comes that you want to order headgates, or 

 specify the ones that have given the best satisfaction, you 

 should know the reasons why Northwestern Iron Headgates 

 are so popular among those who consider quality and satis- 

 faction when they put in headgates. 



Wooden Gates 

 Waste Water 



They always swell and warp, cannot be made 

 water tight and are hard to operate. When 

 you waste your water, your crops suffer. That 

 means an actual money loss greater than the 

 cost of iron gates. Investigate the merits of the 



Northwestern 

 Iron Headgates 



THEY NEVER LEAK 

 LAST A LIFE TIME 



Easy to operate and will save you more than 

 their cost in time and trouble. Used by large 

 private irrigation projects alloverthe country.

 irrigation engineer should have one.
