 As an Illustration, he stated that in his own county of Weston. lying i'm lmediately west of the South Dakota line. some twelve years ago a start was made by himself and friends to grow grain without irrigation. These agricultural operations were looked upon by cowboys as a great joke. The section was a ''cow country" and dry land farming Well. there was not even a question that it would sue ceed. Now a quarter of a million bushels of grain and 25,OOO bushels of vegetables are produced annually wheat yielding from IS to 20 bushels per acre-and in Crook county to the north, and also west of the South Dakota line the crop production without irrigation is much more. In the northern half of Weston county, twelve years ago an almost unbroken range. there is now an average of between two and three farms on ev- cry square mile. This" he said. shows the advance we have made in twelve years. Why have we any reason to believe that vse will not make as great an additional advance in the coming twelve years and. bring lands under cultivation, which are now looked upon as worthless for farming? "It IS not that there is a change in the climate but change in the class of farmers; not change in the soil, but ir the class of the crops grown. considerable portion of this land in- cluded in these GAO acre homestead bills will be found during the com. ing decade or so to be suitable for so called dry farming considerable will he irrigated in small individual patches by damming, etc. and consid- erahie by private irrigation systems.
 We are but upon the fringe of the agricultural development of the great west. We will if we proceed care fully in our land policy. ultimately cultivate as much land by these dry farm methods as through irrigation. For every million or ten million acres we reclaim through irrigation in the west we will have a million or ten million acres producing proftably without irrigation
