IRRIGATION 



IN 



Northeastern Colorado

 running the pumps being supplied by electric companies who have their power lines 

 well distributed over the country. The cost is nominal. By this system the water 

 supply can be positively controlled and crops are assured. This district is served by the 



UNION PACIFIC 



STANDARD ROAD OF THE WEST 



PROTECTED BY AUTOMATIC ELECTRIC BLOCK SAFETY SIGNALS 



Our folder, Farming in Northeastern Colorado, telling of the work and possibilities 



in this district, will be sent on request.
