The main canal is so miles in length.
J with 20 miles of side bitches or main
lateralS, forming a perfect system for
/ irrigation.
| visit to this truly wonderful mas
terpiece of civil engineering would be
a revelation and would remove from the
mind of the skeptic any and all doubts
as TO the reliability of the water sup
ply.
The company's labor and outlay have
been crowned with a rich reward. for
10000 acres of this land are now under
irrigation, and upon the central farm
alone 1000 tons of hay were produced,
besides superabundance of Whe and
oats.
The company have also planted 1000
acres in choice fruit trees. Forty thou
sand of these trees were planted two.
years ago last May, and 10000 one years
ago last May. These trees have been
planted expressly for the exporting of
fruit.
In a few years a magnificent com
mercial orchard of 5000 acres will be
entirely under cultivation.
Now that the question of water sup
ply is overcome, the elevation of Bear
River valley is a benefit rather than d
disadvantage, for owing to it's prox-
unity to the Great Salt Lake it has
the humidity of a seacoast vicinity
combined with the bTacing air of a
mountainous region, thus making a
perfection of Utahs always perfect eli
mate.
This valley is in the future destined
to become a valley of homes, as is al
ready demonstrated by the many COM
Portable farm houses dotted over it's
surface; its people now number about
1900
The immense orchards. alfalfa fields
and garden products open avenues for
numerous enterprises. such as canning
factories, cold storage houses picking
works, fruit evaporating establish
ments and the bee industry.
The Bear River farmer does not delve
like a mole underground for his
wealth, but out of the ground springs
the riches that are the only true value
to man.
There are four elements necessary to
the production of foods-namely, rich
soil, temperate climate, plenty of Gods
sunshine and moisture.
Nature has, in Bear River valley, par
TALLY supplied these wants, and man,
with his intellect, has supplied the rest,
making that beautiful saying in regard
to irrigation, the wedding of the sun
shine and the rain a veritable truth.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1897-12-26
A VALLEY OF HOMES.
WHAT THE BEAR RIVER COM
PANY HAS ACCOMPLISHED.
Magnificent Tract of Fertile Land
Reclaimed-A Fine Region For
Fruit Culture and Farming Fast
Settling Up.

The bringing of Bear River valley
under cultivation is one of the noted
achievements of the past ten years in
this locality. The task presented diff
culties in engineering and in finance
that make the achievement more re-
markable. 1t has been a pioneer enter
prise in it's line, and has solved prob
lens alike for capitalists, agriculturfsts,
horticulturists, stock raisers and labor
ers. Although in Box Elder county, it is
a natural resource for Ogden, and must
be considered with this city.
This magnificent valley has been i'm
year, and now presents a picture beau
tiful to behold.
To one standing upon the shores Of
the Great Salt Lake and looking to the
north as far as the eye can see, the
vision rests upon a valley stretching
for 80 miles to the north and L miles
TO the east, surrounded by gigantic
mountains. This vast tract of land,
rich as it is in all of the elements ne
cessary to farming and fruit culture,
was practically useless because the nat
ural water course lying so far beneath
the valley made it appear but an idle
speculation to even dream of a system
of irrigation, much less to cOnsummate
it, The Bear River Irrigation and Og-
den WaterWOrkS company, undaunted
by the tremendous obstacles which
confronted them, overcame and con-
quered this seemingly impossible task.
Going six miles up the canyon situated
above Bear River valley, and there con-
a dam Is feet high, 100 feet
thick and $50 feet long, which turns
the waters of the mighty Bear river
into huge tunnels and masonry chan
nels, thereby pouring a never-ending
supply OF water into the valley below.

STATE INDUSTRIAL SCHOOL.
The State Industrial school has been
the scene of some important improve
ments during the year. The institu-
ton is now we'll established at it's
new quarters in the north end of the
city, and the new site has now passed
formally into the ownership of the
state. During the year the work of the
inmates has been utilized in the con-
struction of d water supply system
and a sewer system. The water sup
ply is obtained from the North Ogden
canal, in which the school has acquired
an interest. How effective the new
system is may be known from the fact
that the natural pressure will throw
the water to the top of the building.
There are SO rooms in the building and
