peal to arms, and would undoubtedly
have done so, but for the timely arrival
of heavy rains, which both raised the
river and moistened the parched and
dying crops.
Throagh the direct labor of the
Greeley enterprise, 10000 acres and
more of land were brought under cul-
tivation, yielding a great variety of
crops of hay, wheat, oats, corn. pota-
toes and fruits, aggregating millions
of dollars in value, and requiring the
use of almost $4,000. OoO, 900 cubic feet
of water per year. The accompanying
views show how the water is conveyed
in canals and fumes from high up in
the Rocky mountains and carried
many miles to the farms. The meth
DDS of applying it vary with the char
acter and slope of the land. The farm
er having his share of water in his own
small ditch, carries il to the highest
point on his farm and leads it either

arid region of the United States. Here
the experiments and struggles in the
construction and extension of irrigat-
ing systems have been focused, and
the success which has characterized
many of the operations has assured
the future development of great
tracts of land elsewhere which now
lie uncultivated.
Not long ago the United States geo
logical survey, through it's division of
photography, published report on
the progress of irrigation in this dis
trict prepared by Hon. David Boyd, of
Greeley, who was one of the early
members of the Union colony. This
report outlines in a most interesting
manner the difficulties which confront
ed the early settlers and the success
which at last followed their efforts;
and, although it is largely given up to
the scientific description of the irri-
eating plants and the method and re-
suits of the application of water to
the farms, yet a great deal of general
and at times of dramatic interest is in
troduced. Especially is this the case
when the author reviews the growth
of the Legislative control of the
streams from which the supplies for
the irrigating bitches were drawn. In
this connection he mentions the try
ing experiences of the year 1874, when,
after a period of extended draught,
the settlers above used all the avail
able water and refused TO allow any
to reach the colony, which had prior
right TO it. The members of the col
ony, finding that protests and entreat-
les were of no avail, threatened to ap-

0ficers-A Severe Reprimand
Secretary Long administered a severe
reprimand yesterday to Paymaster John
K. Martin. of the navy, who recently
was convicted by court-martial. at the
Philadelphia navy-Yard. of advancing
money TO naval officers and thus vIolat-
ing the statute in regard to the use of
Government funds for private purposes.
Mr. Longs letter is in part as follows
The sentence does no, appear 10 be
adequate to the nature OF the ofense,
which is a plain and f,gran, violation OF
very salutary provision OF law, with
which every officer is assumed to be
familiar. You state that 'overpayments
to officers have been the rule rather than
the exception throughout the service. II
so-and the department is advised that
IT is not so-you are hereby notified that
such practice must stop at once. Nothing
can be more demoralizing and conducive
to fraud and defalcation than to open the
door. ever so slightly, to such misuse
OF funds.
The accused officer is released from
arrest and restored to duty, the court
having recommended only reprimand.
