INSTRUCTION in IRRIGATION
Department of Agriculture Tells Pros
pectiVe settlers How TO
Treat Lands.

WASHINGTON, Oct. l3-For the guild
ance of the great number of people from
humid regions who settle on the immense
areas Of western lands opened to settle
ment the Department of Agriculture has
beginnings in irrigation.
There are several million acres open for
settlement in the United States under ir-
rigation works built by private enterprise
and works are being constructed by the
National government to provide a water
supply for more than 100000 acres of arid
lands.
The report says these are certain to cause
an influx of settlers into western America
during the next few years The report
discusses arid soils and water supplies gem
orally and describes how TO locate and
build farm bitches prepare land to receive
water. irrigate staple crops and how much
water to apply.
Experience throughout the arid region
the report says, rs demonstrating that the
greatest danger to irrigated lands is lack
OF drainage. Water applied to crops rises
the ground water, which brings with ii the
salts dissolved from the soil: capilarity
brings this water to the surface, where
it evaporates, leaving the salts TO ac-
cumulate until all the vegetation is
destroyed. The only insurance against this
Is proper drainage but anything (as
economy in the use of water and thorough
cultivation which will check the rise OF
ground water or lessen evaporation will
decrease the danger"
