s4o,ooo,ooo FOR IRRIGATION

A recent dispatch from Washing
ton says;
The United States is spending $40,-
I 0O0. 900 in the construction of irriga-
ton systems. The great factor tina.
will determine the success or failure
of this investment is the water supply.
Whether or not there is water suffi-
cient for any irrigation project can
not be determined by mere inspection
only measurements made over short
period of years When the reclama-
tion act was passed in 1902 it was
possible for the government to pro-
ceed at once with certain projects be-
cause the geological survey had on file
the results of the stream measurements
showing that sufficient water was a
vailable for these projects. The re-
clamation service has no legal power
stream flow, and obviously it would bc
unjust to charge the cost of general
investigations over all the arid West
against specific projects. In the arid
words. the continued investigation of
the water resources of the country will
safeguard $4O,Oo000O of government
expenditure.
More than S0,00O,000 acres of the
best agricultural lands in the United
States are unproductive because they
need drainage The lands are so
widely spread that drainage is be
ing agitated as national issue, for
many believe that these wet lands
should be reclaimed under federal
authority as are the arid lands of the
West. To the success of this work the
Investigation of water resources as well
as accurate Topographic mapping, is
to the success of irrigation enterprises.
The United States government is
at the present time a large owner of
water power privileges and investiga-
ton of these privileges is a matter of
public duty In the absence of specific
information concerning it's value a
water power may be easily acquired
and water power may be early ac
ouired and water power rights have
thus gone from the control of the gov
ernment for fraction OF their real val
ue not for useful development, bu
for speculative holding which invol
YES keeping them for long periods il
nonproductivc state. Enormous
water powers outside of the publi
domain are being secured at extreme
velopment of these powers will un
doubtedly be of ultimate value to tn
J people at large,their extent and valu
should be matters of public record.

white marble one mile long,335 feet
thick. and extending back at least a
mile and half, as indicated by drill
ings. The cores from these drillings
show that all of the marble clear to the
bottom in this cross section of the
deposit is sound and beautiful.
OF this immense deposit Al per cent
is pure white statuary marble and 50
per cent is divided between golden
vein. The golden veined marble gives
the warm coloring that is found in
oryx. The statuary marble is fawless
and without a trace of color or sha-
dow. and in quality is equal or super
ior to the most famous Italian and Gre
clan marble.
This marble can be quarried in blocks
or pillars of any dimensions, a 50-ton
derrick and the maxium capacity of
the modern railroad car alone liriiting
the size of the commercial product. At
this time the output is confidently be
lieved the production will reach 10000
cubic feet per day, the demand alone
limiting the output.
For verify the gold, silver, copper
and zinc miners and the farmers of
Colorado will be obliged to look to their
laurels within the next ten years; other
wise the products of the mine and farm
will be surpassed in value by the re-
turns from the marble industry now
being developed in this State.
Although this industry is scarcely
two years old it is coming to the front
with amazing strides. Two years ago
the town of Marble, for many years
an abandoned mining camp, had popr-
lation of four people. Today it is
bustling little community of one thon-
sand persons, all supported directly or
Indirectly by the marble business.
Finishing mills, electric power plants
cable and electric trans, and hundred
or more cottages have been erected
within the past eight months, and many
structures of various kinds are now
under way.
Long before the finishing mill was
completed and actually before the com
pauy was ready to ship one cubic foot
of finished marble, contracts had been
made with Cuyahoga County, Ohio off
eials to supply halfmillion dollars
worth of marble TO finish the interie'
Of the new Cleveland courthouse, an
other contract of $4,000 had been
made to supply the marble used in tho
construction of the Youngstown, Ohio
courthouse, and still another contract
mad been made for asl00 900 Checsman
Park memorial in Denver.
