GOODWIN on IRRIGATION

GOODWIN ON lRRtuAllON
Would you know some of the ad-
vantages which irrigation brings the
agriculturists and horticulturists?
Listen.
1t saves his crops from drought and
floods.
Water is the life of the soil. BY ir-
rigation that life can be supplied ex-
actly when needed and in exactly the
proper measure.
It makes the farmer the master Of
his business. He does not have to de-
lay blowing and planting until the soil
dries or until it rains.
1t is his obedient agent. When a
crop begins to suffer for rain, he Up
plies the remedy without waiting for
the whims of elolds and winds.
Through it he plants early, keeps
the crop growing all the time, har-
vests early, and of several varieties
of plants he can raise two or three
Icrops from the same land in a single
season.
In the arid belt he is able to Lar
,est his whole crop; leaving it in the
.lield without danger of loss, before
lousing or stacking it.
Where more moisture is needed for
a certain soil and less for another,
he can exactly supply the wants Of
each.
1t is the same when one r re-
Quires much moisture and another but
little.
Suppose fifty acres of land are re-
quired to pasture fifty animals. The
eastern farmer turns his stock in the
deild and leaves them to rustic. If the
season is a dry one the pasture Is
soon eaten off and the animals suf-
fer. On on irrigated farm a fence
would divide the field in halves. On
Monday morning the stock wolld be
turned into one field, the other would
De irrigated. On the one side tnere
would be good pasture for a week,
on the other there would be given a
fresh start to the grass; the water
would be turned off, the surface would
awe five days to harden. On the Sec
ond Monday the animals would be
.uIned into the other field amid luxur-
ant vegetation and the first pasture
would be irrigated.
Thus they would alternate and in
autumn after a dry summer the
animals would be ready for market.
The crops on irrigated soil are per-
tect for they are not affected by
lroughts or floods.
1t is cheaper, better, safer than rain.
When the ground is prepared, the
cost of irrigation is but a small fac
tor.
Irrigation is a science easily ac-
quired. The man who sees his har-
vest ruined by drought while a stream
runs by his fields, is half a barbarian,
lacking the knowledge or the industry
0 utilize the gifts within his reach.
Ten acres of land and ten inches of
water under the formers hand is
worth more than twenty acres without
he water, even where men depend up
IN rains for needed moisture.
Most American farmers are but bum
5lers. They were beaten by the poor
vretches who, in the valleys around
Babylon, 1000 years ago, by irriga-
ion were able from a small area of
and to supply millions of men and
nimals with food.
The vital principle in the soil to
bring forth food is moisture, where it
is either lacking or irregular. it is
mans province and duty to supply

Especial Telegram to Evening Teller)
HOMER, Neb., Dec. 16.-Game War

WAR ON THE
MOSQUITOES
Scientists and Health Officials
In New York Make Plans to
Exterminate Them

Especial Telegram to Evening Teller.)
NEW YORK, Dec. 16.-The mosquito
is to be exterminated. Such is the fiat
which went out today from the head
quarters of the board of trade in
Broadway. where q number of men
prominently interested in the exter-
mination of the pest assembled to dis
cuss ways and means for bringing
about the desired riddance. The neces-
sity for the determination was unani-
mously agreed upon and various peth-
DDS We're discussed, but the exact
means by which the desired object is to
be effected will probably be decided
One thing, however, was definitely
decided upon. That was that the war
is to be carried into Africa, or more
properly speaking. into New Jersey,
which is acknowledged to be the ban
ner state when it comes to raising a
crop of mosquitoes remarkable for their
size, annoying propensities and powers
of endurance. The fact now established
that the mosquitoes transmit conta-
gious disease is what worries the med
ical men and public health officials.
That something must be done to bring
about their general determination is
agreed upon. 1t is now up to the men
of science to discover the means. Last
year the plan of killing them by pour
ing crude Oil over the breeding places
was given a thorough trial in various
parts of New Jersey, but the method
proved a dismal failure.

who is a prominent banker, besides a
number of other well known citizens of
Spokane and Colfax are heavily inter-
ested.
There is considerable conjecture as
to who is really behind the new project.
1t is conceded that the building of such
a line is of vast Importance, and will
not only be the means of entering a
country that is known to be produc-
tive. but the fact that water grade
can be maintained from Huntington
clear to the coast is another position
that makes the project one of the most
feasible in railroad building in the
west.
The Oregon Short line and O. r. &
n. company have long had their eye
on this route to the coast, but the rail-
road truce existing between the N. P.
and O. r. & N. company is believed to
have prevented any action toward TAX
ing advantage of this route.
1t is possible that the o. r. e. n.
company through Mr.. Hartman of
New York may be directly connected in
the promotion of this line, that as no
statement of any. character in reference
to the Lewiston & Owyhee company
has eminated from the Offices of Mr.
Hartman, the public is left to draw
its own conclusions.
Should this line be built in the near
future, it is presumed that the con-
Meeting link will be made with the
lewiston -Riparia branch which will
practically assure the future CONNER
