Kanorado, Kansas
In 1873, the book Cutler's History of the State of Kansas said the county was "very flat and had almost no trees. Beaver Creek, Little Beaver and both forks of the Sappa River, rise in this county, and the North Fork of the Smoky Hill, passes from Colorado into the south part of the county, and out of it into Wallace."   In the main, farming is by irrigation.
