RECLAMATION FUND
ATTA|NS LARGE SIZE
Receipts From Public Land
Entries Last Fiscal Year
Raise 1t to S23,OO0,Oo6
Globe Special Washington Service,

14II u street
WASHINGTON, D. c., Aug. 26-Re-
ceipts from public land entries during the
last fiscal year will raise the federal rec
lamation fund to more than $23, 600, 000.
Preliminary figures given out by the com
missioner of the general land office today
place the total receipts at the various
land offices in the fiscal period 1904 at
SIS, 1888, as against 0,557, ,61S in 1908.
Settlement on the public domain was
somewhat retarded last year by several
causes. One of the most obvious was
the regulation of the interior department,
which required that all entries under the
timber and stone act should be inspected
by special agent before issuance of
title
This measure was taken by Secretary
Hitchcock to prevent wholesale land
frauds and it was in force during three
quarters of the last fiscal year. Another
cause of the smaller number of entries
was the extensive withdrawal of lands,
ostensibly in the interest of the govern
ment's forest reserve policy, but in real
ity Gin some cases) to stop the ring of
land grafters from carrying on their oper-
ations pending the official investigation
which was instituted early in the year.
Big Reclamation Fund
The significance of the receipts from
public land sales is, of course, that about
nine-tenths of all the collections at land
Offices in arid and semi-arid states are
2 covered into the federal reclamation fund.
The act of 1902 provides that these re-
ceipts beginning with the fiscal year 1901,
should form a general fund to be ex-
pended on irrigation projects in Arizona,
California, Colorado. Idaho, Kansas. Mon
tana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Mexico,
North Dakota. Oklahoma Oregon, South
Dakota, Utah, washington and Wyoming.
The whole number of acres entered in
1903, and the total receipts were, re-
spectively 22.650,92S and $1O,557,616. 1t is
40 be remembered, however, that only the
receipts from sixteen arid and semi-arid
states are applicable to the federal rec
lamation fund, and from these receipts
must be deducted the expenses of the
local land offices.
The receipts from the sixteen states in
question during the last fiscal year

The average cost of Irrigation construc-
ton for these lands was about 5000 per
acre, and at that rate the present federal
irrigation fund would reclaim 2113, 423
acres of the public domain. No safe esti-
mate is possible, however, for the cost of
the various projects now pending varies
widely Moreover the reclamation fund
is a continuing fund, for the law provides
that the cost of constructing federal irri-
cation works shall be reimbursed within

amounted to $7,604, ,974 About 10 per cent
of this amount must be deducted to cover
the expenses of the public land service
in the sixteen states, so the balance, which
is to be turned into the reclamation fund,
will approximate $6,S44,477. The total
fund at the end of the fiscal year 1903 was
16191 1885, but this years receipts from
entries on public lands in the sixteen
states affected by the reclamation act will
raise this sum to $23, 3,036,31S. These figures
are estimated, for it is not yet known what
the expense of the land offices were last
year. The expenses usually approximate
10 per cent of the total income from land
office business.

Federal irrigation a Success

So far as funds are concerned, there
can be no doubt of the success of federal
irrigation, and the prospect is that within
the next few years several millions of
acres of land now worthless, will be
added to the fruitful area of the United
States.
Although no lands are yet actually un-
der water as a result of federal irriga-
tion projects, there are no less than
S,S75, 090 acres in arid and semi-arid
states which have been reclaimed by pri-
yate enterprise. This land comprises 129,-
III separate farms, and the irrigation
works cost $S2,5S5, 602. This private irri-
cation is distributed as follows:
