Besides the reasons given above for the
failure of this enterprise can be named
one other which alone was enough to bring
defeat Schultze's idea was to build up
the whole country at once. Have 1t all
under irrigation and settled up in very
short time. So land was sold all along the
forty miles OF canal. 1t must be remem-
bered there are only two or three larger
canals built In the United States. Instead
of building up solid communities with care
and elaboration, giving them efficient
water service. establishing roads and
schools and churches. the people were
brought in peli nell and settled here and
there and everywhere. It takes time to

However disastrous this was to the orig
inal investors. while it bankrupted many
who attempted to subdue the sage brush,
Il was no doubt a great thing for the eoun-
try. The experimental stage is gone by.
The original investors lose their money,
but some one else will come along and
take up the proposition and make mint.
The abandoned lands are being taken up
by new people. Enough is accomplished
all along to prove the worth OF the coun-
try. The original idea that this must all
be cut up in ten and twenty-acre tracts
for fruit and vegetables IS given UP. Now
1t is agreed by all that the wealth of this
section will be reached through the one
crop. alfalfa The finest alfalfa fields in
the Yakima valley certainly, and possibly
the finest in the world, are found under
the Sunnysida canal. II is claimed as
much as ten to twelve tons have been pro-
duced per acre. Alfalfa. OF course. means
