The Arid West

For a long time vast regions Of the West,
lying in what Is p0puiarly termed the Rocky
Mountain States. were supposed 10 be worth
less; aud they we're, in large part, given over
10 sage brush, cactus and coyotes Bot with
growth of agricultural interests ia the Western
prairie States il was early discovered that
these supposedly yalueleSs lands were fertile
ia the extreme. Water upon them wrought
transformation Of desert into paradise. so
the search for supplies OF water WAS prosecuted
with more or less industry, and lands were
reclaimed as the means OF the people of the
interested sections permitted But obviously
the wealth Of these isolated frontier commu.
mites is inadequate to undertake the eonstruc-
ton Of the gigantic dams and bitches involved
in the larger schemes, now proposed. Tor re-
deeming the West.
The possibilities OF irrigation 10 that quarter
are vast, and the available statistics on the
subject are duly impressive. i. Is estimated
that in the ard zone there are no fewer than
4TO. 600. 900 acres. The experts Of the gov
eminent believe that 200, 600. 600 acres are
susceptible Of cultivation. This is all the more
astonishing when we consider that today little
of it serves any useful purpose, apart from
sustaining on its ranges few thousand cattle.
In Nebraska, Kansas, the Dakotas aud Texas
grain growing reglons-I5, 900, 900 acres are
unproductive owing 10 lack Of moisture, and
this situation is all the more important when
we consider that it is this group of States
which provides a large part OF our annual sup
ply of corn, oats and wheat.
Less than 4 per cent. of the area available
for irrigation has been thus far brought under
cultivation. Colorado leads in respect to
number of acres artihcially watered. the az
gregate for this State being ,625, 600; and the
largest region extensively irrigated is the
South Plate Valley, lying in Nebraska, Wy
oming and Colorado, 100000 acres being
here converted to profitable planting. Arizo-
ma, with 100000 acres; New Mexico. with
$50, 900; Nebraska, with l0O,0 Utah, with
300, 900, and California, with her choicest
fruit lands, all bear urgent witness to the ne
eessity for further development Of this neg
lected national domain. The SIC, 900, 600
appropriated by Congress for the purpose is
uone too large a sum; for, 10 the course OF
time, with the growth of our country, we shall
have need to reap every acre Of land suscepu-
HE of cultivation

quarter Of a day, which be considered neces

the rule that at the end OF every four years a
single day should be in,ercalated. His calen-
dar was detective iuasmuch astronomers
based their calculations on the supposlton
that the solar year consisted Of 800 days and
hours. leaving ont II minutes and y seconds.
So M 1882 there was a difference OF 10 days
made up of the accumulation of odd minutes.
Gregory then established the present calendar.
Ten days we're omitted, and 1t was ordered
that every year whose number Is diyisible by
four should be leap year, except the full
centuries, which, to be leap years, must be
divisible by 400 without remainder. Ii not
so divisible they should be common years.
Nineteen hundred, therefore, was not leap
year, but 1000 will be. Hence. children will
not have to worry much about waiting another
eight-year interval between birthdays during
this century.

Dunkards Will Colonize.

The Chicago Record. Herald says: Ar
engagements have been made BY the Sante Fe
railroad for the establishment of two large
Dunkard colonies in northern Texas and in
the Pecos valley. Between 300 and 500 families
are expected to locate in the colonies.
Through Philip Swihart, of Tippecanoe,
Indiana, the Dunkards of many States have
agreed TO sell their homes and recolonize on
a large scale in the sections named. Con-
tracts have been signed by the Dunksrd com
mttee aud the land agents of the Sante Fe,
whereby the railway has reserved Is, 900 acres
of land in the Pecos valley between Carlsbad
and Roswell, and 1000 acres in northern
Texas between Hereford and Bovina. On the
latter will be colonized the Dundards, who
desire to engage in cattle raising mainly. and
on the former tract those who desire to engage
in fruit raising.
