Growth Of Irrigation.

The following extract from the
census bulletin on farming gives
some interesting figures on irrigation
showing the tendency in sections
where it has been in use for some
years to cut down the size of the
farms:
"a comparison of the number of
irrigators and of the number of
acres irrigated at the beginning and
end of the decade 1S89-1899 show VS.
that these have approximately doub.
led. The lumber of irrigators in the
arid states and territ ories increased
from 1884 to 102.S19, or 85 per
cent, and the number of acres irrigat-
ed increased from 1864 AIS to 1898
273, or 103 per cent. The percent
age of increase in the number of &C.
res irrigated is somewhat larger than
that in number Of irrigators, and oc.
ours principally in Idaho, Montana,
Utah and Wyoming. This increase
is explained by the irrigation within
recent years of large areas on ranch
es, in forage crops and pasture.
"In California and Colorado the re-
versed condition is noticeable. The
increase both in number of irrigators
and in area irrigated has been pro-
portionately less than in the new
er states, showing decrease in ratio
Of growth, due to more complete de.
velopment and utilization of svaila.
BILE water supply In these states the
acreage irrigated has increased re.
spectiyely "A and 80 per cent, or tax.
ing both states together, 81 per cent
while the number of firrigators has in.
creased SO and S2 per cent respec
lively, or together, "a per cent
Thus the number of irrigators is in
creasing more rapidly than the aret
brought under cultivation, showing
q more marked tendancy toward the
subdivision Of large irrigated tract.
and the cutting up of these into
smaller homesteads, mainly develop
ed to fruit raising"

JUDGE AND COMMISSIONER.
With Only Two Votes They Sometimes
Tie.

The county commissioners court met
yesterday with Judge Gray and Coun-
ty Commissioner Young present. In

three are working court AMI two are
tie--according to results yesterday.
Chris. Peterson. the other commits
sioner. sent in his resignation and
Judge Gray favored accepting the res
ignation and appointing successor at
once. but Commissioner Young is said
10 have objected. The two members
of the court coihded on the very next
proposition that arose A petition was
then received from the vicinity Of Oh
ney requesting that the portable saw
mali and engine which are now lying
idle at Krosel's be removed to a loca-
tion near Hayseth's place and begin
cutting lumber for the road at once.
as water could not be secured at the
present location for the engine during
summer Commissioner Young voted
In favor OF this petition and Judge
Gray voted against 1t.
Speaking of the matter yesterday
afternoon. Judge Gray said:
Il voted against the petition for the
reason that there is no road or ground
cleared on which TO pile 10000 to
100000 feet of lumber. and win favor
moving the mill and engine to Lewis
and Clark by the 18th or 10th of April.
If they are given the use Of the coun-
ty sawmill until that time After that
time road No. II could have so days
use Of the large engine and double
circular sawmill before cemetery dyke
is completed. May Is, as per contract"
The judge also offered a resolution
at the March term which was de-
feated by Commissioner Youngs vote
to the effect that when the present
order for lumber of about 10000 feet
is sawed for road No. n the saw mill
should be taken ITO the Lewis and
Clark river not later than April 5. Of
this year, and that it should be taken
to the location near Hayseth to saw
lumber 21sin. by 12in. 10 feet long for
the cemetery dyke, and then the, re-
mainder Of the lumber to be 5 feet long
for the remainder of the road to Oh
ney. The Judge gives reasons for his
stand in the matter, and doubtless
Mr.. Young has reasons for his stand
in the matter, but we did not get to
see him yesterday afternoon. In anv
event we hope that the matter viii
soon be arranged for the best interest
OF the county.
