IRRIGATION BUREAU.


An agitation that is said to be
daily gaining strength in Washing
ton has been set on foot, looking
to the organization OF an agricul>
tural engineering bureau OF broad
scope and power. For the head OF
this sub department the name OF
Professor Elwood Mead is suggests
ed.
AS Professor Mead is an irriga>
ton expert of distinction, it is evi>
dent that the intention is to devote
the time and energies of the pros
posed bureau to the study ot the
needs of the country in the matter
Of irrigation. By a careful study
OF the situation in the arid west,
intelligent plans could be suggested
for reclaiming the land.
The proposed bureau is un-
doubtedly step in the right di-
rection, and one that should be
urged by every western senator
and representative at the next ses>
sion of congress. 1t is clear that
before any extensive appropriation
for irrigation can be made, it will
become necessary that intelligent
plans be formulated for the prose-
cution of the work along the wisest
and most economical lines. 1t is
just this sort of preliminary work
that could be done by a bureau
under the direction OF so practical
an irrigation expert as Elwood
Mead.
Mr.. Mead's labors in behalf of
irrigation are well>known through
out the west, and especially in
Wyoming, Of which state he is a
resident. In the Sos he occupied
the chair OF professor Of irrigation
engineering in the Colorado Agri>
cultural college. Later he served
as chief engineer on the Bear River
canal. In 1898 Professor Mead
was in charge Of the irrigation in
vestigation done by the agricultur
al department
His fitness for the office is there
fore. beyond question, and it is to
be hoped that the coming congress
will not only see to it that the bus
reau in question be established, but
that it be placed in the control of
Professor Mead or someone equal
ly qualified. Salt Lake Herald.
