The Laramie-Poudre Tunnel, one of the most important features of the irrigation system now being constructed by the Laramie-Poudre Reservoirs and Irrigation Company for the Greeley-Poudre Irrigation District, has recently been completed, and the remainder of the system is advanced so far that water can probably be furnished for the lands in the district during the season of 1912. The Greeley-Poudre Irrigation District comprises an area of 125 000 acres of arid land in Weld County, Colorado, in the Valley of the Cache La Poudre River. This land is adjacent to but above the present irrigated area of the Cache La Poudre Valley, and, when supplied with water, will be as productive as any now under cultivation. As the normal flow of the Cache La Poudre River had been already appropriated, it was necessary to look to other drainage areas for water before the present cultivated area could be extended.
