Book excerpt: Excerpt from Progress of the Barberry Eradication Campaign in Colorado and Wyoming in 1930 In 1933, the survey in Colorado and Wyoming was of the intensive type. All farm and city properties in the coun ties where work was done were carefully inspected for common barberry bushes. Rivers and ditch banks, woodlots, fence rows, in fact all places where shrubs commonly grow, were inspected for barberry bushes. In Colorado a thorough second survey was made of Douglas, Elbert, and El Paso Counties. Three thousand five hundred and three common barberry bushes and seedlings were found and destroyed in these counties this year. One large escaped area of several hundred bushes was found west of Colorado Springs, Colorado. The bushes were growing wild over the hillsides and in the canyons for a distance of ten miles west of the city They evidently had been spread from barberries that were planted in the city of Colorado Springs prior to 1918.
