Ignite AND IRRIGATION.

1t is gradually becoming certain that
in one way or another We shall yet find
out how to make a much greater and
more profitable use of the arid and semi
arid plains than was formerly supposed
to be possible. says the Minneapolis
Journal. That portion of them that
is reserved for stock raising will in the
future raise much more stock than in
the past. All of the river valleys will
be cultivated by means of irrigation,
and some crops will be found to be
adapted to extensive cultivation with
out irrigation in the semi-arid regions.
1t is now certain hat the regions here
tOfOre given up to reckless p%asturing
will support in time a much larger pop
ulation than was dreamed of a few
years ago.
In the current Review of Reviews
Frank A. Wilder, director of the geo.
logical survey of North Dakota, makes
a suggestion that may have a world

portions of that state. 1t is character
istic of the semi-arid country that
though for a number of years it may
have enough rain to produce bountiful
crops, there is no telling when there
will come II or many years of INSULT
Gent rainfall. Irrigation is crop in
surance to such regions, but the diff
Guilty in North Dakota is that the to-
Biography of the country does not
favor lateral %irrigating bitches and
large reservoir sites are rare. Yet
the country is abundantly supplied
with streams that are full of water Just
when the crops most need it. To get
the water to the land it must be
pumped up into small reservoirs and
thus distributed to the land. Mr..
Wilder says that the cheap Ignite of
North Dakota will enable the farmer
to irrigate his land and insure bounti.
full crops. can ordinary farm engine
he says, "and a centrifugal pump
which costs 5000, are sufficient euuip.
ment to irrigate 100 acres when the
lift is only twenty-five feet"
AS North Dakota has 81, 500 square
miles of Ignite and as most of it un.
derlies the very country that needs ir.
rigation as insurance, Mr.. Wilder's
suggestion means that it may be pos.
sible to settle the dry portion of the
state as densely as the humid. II
would be interesting to know whether
there have been any actual applica.
tiOns of the idea. In view of the large
population now going into the dry
country. the first season of insufficient
moisture will doubtless lead to exten.
sive trials of irrigation by pumping
with Ignite fuel.
