of the greatest value because of their I1ef-
ttlity and proximity to large markets WI
require the dual treatment. aa-gE
PRIVATE CAPITAL INVOLVED.tI -
The irrigation bill passed at the laStfS.-
sion Of Congress provides for the esne0-
lishnent of reservoirs and the constfHe-
tion Of distribution bitches in suffif iHft
number to permit of the use of the wager
thus stored, but there is no provision
made for the underdrainage of the more
alkaline soils.
This will have to be done by private
capital. although the bureau Of soils of the
Department of Agriculture is already max
ing small demonstration experiments to
prove the efficacy of the system in vari-
Gus sections of the West.
In one instance in the San Joaquin VAL
ley. single irrigation had, at last reports.
removed fifty-five tons of alkah from a
single acre and the drains were still run
ming. There are hundreds of thousands Of
acres in this valley which 1t Is reasonable
to assume will yield 10 the irrigation-un-
derdrainage treatment and which will
double and treble in value soon as the
alkali has been removed.
The applications of this system will add
materially to the area which will become
susceptible of cultivation as result Of
the MISUNDERSTANDING irrigation bill.
and every acre will add enormously to the
aggregate wealth of the country. for not

bility of applying water to the growing
crops as needed in itself greatly increases
