Pres. LOWELL
TO WATER USERS

Mr.. F. H. Newell. director of the
Reclamation Service tells this story:
He had occasion to address a meet
ing OF farmers and irrigation men at
q small town In the west and was In
troduced by q young man in an elo-
quent speech in which the speaker
eulogiaed the work of Mr.. Newell and
the Reclamation Service and conclu-
ded with a new adaptation of an old
sentiment by declaring that the man
who makes two drops of water flow
where only one few before, Is a bene-
factor of mankind.
Within the past few weeks there
have been a series of significant meet
ings In Caldwell of farmers. irriga-
ton men and Reclamation Engineers
which have had for their object the
making of thousands of inches of
water flow where thousands of acres
of the richest sage brush land has
been awaiting only for the touch of
water to yield abundantiy for the
comfort and enjoyment of the people.
These meetings have been held un-
der the auspices of the Payette-Boise
Water Users Asso., and an attend
ance at these meetings will show the
indomitable will. perseverance and
intelligence with which these farmers
are approaching the problem before
them. The meetings have been at
tended by from seventy-five to one
hundred farmers and a plan is being
worked out by which the lateral sys-
TEN will be constructed by the far
mers In order to utilize the water
from the Government canals and res
ervoir now we'll along towards COM
pletion and upon which the Govern
ment has already appropriated nearly
two million of dollars.
OF course the farmers are under.
taking this work primarily because
1t is for their interest to get the wa
ter on their land In the shortest pos
sihle time, but their combined efforts
will result in bringing into cultiva
ton In the near future thirty to forty
thousand acres of land lying in this
/. vicinity and furnish homes and EN-
ployment for thousands of families.
On the other hand the business
men of Caldwell are cooperating II
order to tide over the farmers during
the period of construction and arr
disposed to do their part towards tn
development of the country upol
which the success of every residen

The rest of the country won't
laugh this year. Arkansas has a
crop worth AUTHORIZATIONS in
cash, all paid in before fall, as safe
as United States gold bonds and
easier to sell. 1t consists of cher
ries, apples, plums, and peaches.
Of the last named fruit alone
there are now on the trees more
than $500 car loads. Most of this
can and viii be sold on the branch,
so that the grOwer-though in many
