ward across the driest part of the
sem-arld belt. The present situation
requires that the chances Of failure be
clearly faced, and it is the writer's
conviction that there arc hundreds OF
settlers in the western half of the
semi-arid belt who must supplement
the dry farm by irrigation; and unless
they do, the next period of drought
will Witness a greater exodus and
more hardship and priyation than the
first.
1t is one thing to recognize the ad.
vantages Of irrigation; another to pro-
vide for it. 1t is believed, however.
that it is possible to control enough
water TO irrigate from one to ten
acres of land on each of thousands OF
farms where complete irrigation is
not possible, and that this can be
done by one of the three following
plans: % Pumping from soil wa
ter or underground streams; (2) stor-
storm waters or the irregular flow oil
streams; CD Irrigation with flood wa
ter whenever it can be had, usually in
the winter and spring, generally
spoken of as winter irrigation.
