quantity of water available for irri-
cation purposes and more land to ir-
rigate than any other section of the
United States where irrigation is re-
quired.
Land for Rent.
Farms for rent are available all
through the valley, and hundreds of
settlers, particularly young men, have
demonstrated that successful begin
ming may be made i'm that way.
A Good Market for Everything.
The farmer in this valley has a good
market for everything This is also
true of products not consumed locally.
for the character of these is such that
resident buyers deal directly with
growers, and as a result entire crops
are often contracted for before they
are harvested
The Experimental Stage Past.
The experiment stage is past and
the future possibilities of this wonder
fui valley are now being fully realized,
and capital and imnigra ton are now
early embracing the opportunities af-
fordcd by its unrivaled resources.
How You Can Get Rich.
Instances are recorded where farm
ers have cleared the price of their
land from the proceeds of one years
crop. The possibilities are here. and
with careful handling of the land, no
better section can be selected for
farming. According to the government
report the upper Snake river valley
raises more wheat, oats, potatoes and
sugar beets to the acre than any other
section on the continent and of a quail

Pioneer Days Past.
There was a time less than a CEN
tury ago that the immigrants TO Idaho
were confronted by hardships; educa-
tiopal and social advantages were not
equal to these in the east and middle
west. These days are gene never to
return again. The prairie schooner has
been succeeded by the palace car. The
way has been blasted and made
smooth for the settler Of today.
Civilization is here at its best, at
1ea3t in those forms that represent ma
teriGl progress, ard now is a full stride
in advance of many parts OF the older
eastern states. Few people today can
imagine what this civilization and I'M
tiriEg energy characteristic of the peo-
pie of the northwest will mean to this
country twenty years hence.
The Country for You and Yours.
In early days only the young man
had any prospects FOR living to see the |
country grow up" 1t is different to- |
day, in sense, for the country has
grown up. 1t is the country for the |
man who has arrived at the meridian |
of life, and for the old man who has
less time to accumulate. he will find |
this country field of the largest OPP |
p0rtunity and It is better for the young !
man ard woman who will have the /
same opportunities that exist for their |
elders and the opportunities that will |
still remain when the man who is past |
the meridian of life today has passed |
from the stage of active endeavors. |
1t is the country for you and yours; |
it's invigorating climate will prolong |
the life and usefulness of the aged, |
will multiply the opportunities of |
those in middle age and will reward |
the energies of the young.
A Force That Works While You
Sleep.
And while you are getting rich from
the product of your land another force
VIII be at work for you while you
sleep. 1t is the interest thai immi-
grafton will pay you on your land and
real estate investments, for as in
evitably as man seeks to better his
SO surely will the farmers of
other states continue to develop Snake
river valley lands until not an avail
able acre is left uncultivated, and the
price will greatly exceed that of the
and of other states. Intensified farm
ng under irrigation is the watchword
and under this system every foot of
ground can be made to bear a pro-
life yield or six times as much as
ground that is naturally watered.
Saving is the foundation of wealth
tut economy is not necessarily ac- l.
