HOW TO IRRIGATE.

Irrigation is matter which re-
quires greater attention than is CIV
en- 10 it by the majority of ranch
ers
There are now every year hun
dreds of persons unfamiliar with ir-
rigaton who are beginning it's use
Many of these are from sections
where there is no irrigation and who
have very little idea of the proper
quality of water to apply or of the
best methods of applying 1t. The
land ALSO usually requires more or
less leveling and other preparation
which must be well done if good re-
suits are expected and ought to be
done economically This will often
require special tools. Bulletins CIV
ing helpful suggestions for begin
ners in irrigation can be obtained
by addressing Professor S. Fortier,
Berkeley, or the office of the Ex-
pertinent Station, Washington, D. C.

Engineer Newell Talks.

The following article by Walter
f. Clark, the acknowledgement
special correspondent at Washing
ton, D. c.. will be of interest to
the readers of the Morning Herald:
Engineer Newell was asked to
state precisely what is the objection
of the reclamation service to the
states selection of lands in the Yaki
ma valley under the terms Of the
Carey act. This request was
prefaced by the remark that, as the
chief engineer knew. the claim of the
state, as represented by Commission
err Ross. had become a matter of
serious controversy; also that the
states selection had been cited re-
Gently by the secretary Of the in
terror as an obstacle to the Tieton
and Sunnyside irrigation projects
which must be removed before the
beginning of work could be author
lied
''Mr Newell said in reply that it
was Misrepresentation to suppose
that the reclamation service had in
dependently and of its own initia-
tive raised this obstacle.
when the state land commits
sioner presented his application for
the lands in question" Mr.. Newell
continued, "the question of irriga-
ton naturally arose, and the secre-
tary of the interior called on the
reclamation service for an opinion.
The chief engineer advised him that
the state of Washington had no
water with which to reclaim these
lands. The Carey act, under which
such selections are made, requires
that the state show beyond question
its ability to irrigate selected lands
As the state of Washington has no
means of irrigating the lands which
it desires in the lower Yakima val
ley, Mr. Newell concluded the secre-
tarys objection to appropriating the
selection was a sound one Com
menting further on the criticisms
which have been directed toward the
reclamation service because of its
attitude toward the states selec-
tons. Mr.. Newell said:
"The reclamation service is not an
autonomous body. 1t does not mi.
tiate anything. except as authorized
to do so under the specific terms OF
the reclamation law. We do not
volunteer opinions to the secretary
in regard to the proposed selection
of lands by Washington. Our reply
as to the impossibilfty of giving
over these lands was based simply
on the fact that the state cannot
water them. Moreover, the depart
ment has no authority under the
reclamation act to negotiate with
any except individual water users
for the irrigation of lands"
