NATIONAL SURVEY SOUGHT.


The Kansas Irrigation Board Wants the
7 Governments Assistance.
TOPEKA, Kan, March 20. The state
irrigation board to-day opened negotis.
tions with the general government
looking to o thorough survey and
measurement OF all streams In western
Kansas. II the general government
will do as the state board suggests,
Kansas will receive more benefit from
the federal government than the state
board would possibly be able to accom-
plish with the appropriation at its dis
position.
Judge Sutton says tho state board
asks the general government to make
geological survey and stake the
measurements Of all streams flowing
out OF the arid region west Of the 0Sth
meridian. This will include the Solo
mon, Saline, Smoky, Cimarron and
Arkansas rivers If this is done the
state board will have positive infor-
nation as to just where the wind mill
system Of irrigation will be success.

pear TO be very good. 1t looks as II
Spain would make the required spol'

CHICAGO, March II. - The Orange
Judd Farmer this week, in discussing
wheat reserves and comparing Its esti-
mate Of lji,0O0,0OO bushels with the
government estimate of 75,0O0,O0O
bushels, declares that the govern
ment expert is without authori-
ty Of law or statistical expert
ence, and arbitrarily reduced the rc.
turns Of his correspondents by from
O,OOO,OOO to 100000 bushels. In
proof Of this II declares that its returns
and the government returns come
from the same class Of people, subject
to the same Influences, and their hg-
ures Of percentage Of wheat on farms
Is but little more than half that
returned to this paper. The sta
tistician Of the Orange Judd
Farmer was formerly assistant
statistician Of the department Of
agriculture, and Is consequently famil-
lar with the workings OF that Office.
