Overview

Excerpt from Colorado as an Agricultural State: Its Farms, Fields, and Garden Lands And to the South, from the Fontaine-qui-bouille and the Spanish Sierras, Fretted With sands and rocks, and swept by the wind of the desert, Numberless torrents, with ceaseless sound, descend to the ocean, Like the great chords of a. Harp, in loud and solemn vibrations. Spreading between the streams are wondrous, beautiful prairies, Billowy bays of grass are rolling in shadow and sunshine; Bright with the luxurious clusters of roses and purple amorphas. Over them wander the buffalo herds, and the elk, and the roebuck; Over them wander the wolves and herds of riderless horses; Fires that blast and blight, and winds that are weary with travel. Over them wander the scattered tribes of Ishmael's children, Staining the desert with blood, and above their terrible war-trail Circles and sails anost, on pinions majestic, the Vulture, Like the implacable soul of a chieftain slaughtered in battle.
