Irrigation Statistics.


 the Director of the Census by Chief Statistician l.. c. Powers. The report was prepared under his direction by Clarence J. Blan- Chard and Is based upon infOrma- tiOn obtained by correspondence and through field investigations by William J. BarrowS. It will . soon appear as part of the irri- RatiOu report for the United States for the year 1902. The statistics are for the several drainage basins, and indicate considerable progress in irriga- tion since the crop year 1899.
 The industrial art of irriga- tiOn in the United States began Tn Arizona, and indications are found throughout the valleys of the Gila and Salt rivers that large areas now barren and for bidding were once occupied by a numerous, prehistoric race. The canals now in use in many places follow quite closely the lines of those ancient systems. These early ditChes reveal en-  gineering skill of a high order, and must have required an inn mense expenditure of labor. There origin Is lost, even in tradition, for they were aband- oned as early as 1542, when COrO- nadO visited these valleys in search of the Seven cities of Cibola," but ethnolOgists date their operation as early as the eighth or ninth century. Por- tions of the beds of these an cient ditches are today utilized in modern systems.
 Arizona, Geographically, con- sists of two distinct regions, plateau and plain. More than one-half of the territory has an elevation of over 5000 feet, and forms what is generally know as the Colorado Plateau. One third of the territory is below ,oo1 or 2 OOO foo4 ,,,d .1o.,o.
