the various states, and these still
further to be supplemented by coun.
ty thoroughfares which, in their
turn, would be fed by township and
neighborhood roads built upon scien-
tific plans and, to large extent
lat public expense.
"The only reason that such a pol
icy has not heretofore been thor
.oughly developed has been the fact
that We have been living in an iron
age, absorbed in the settlement and
pioneer work of an absolutely virgin
continent and depending upon rail
roads for transportation. With the
increase of population it is now be-
ing realized that wagon roads are
just as essential as railroads. both as
feeders for the latter and as a means
o Transportation and travel In them
selves. The entire commerce of a
country passes over its roads
''Of course, volumes might be
written on the subjects suggested in
your letter, but suffice it for me to
say at this time that in my judgment
the drainage and reclamation OF
swamp lands in the states mentioned
by you is in principle just as import
ant and desirable as the irrigation OF
arid lands since the ultimate re-
suit in both cases is the same:
namely, the multiplication of the
resources of the country and the
creation of prosperous homes out of
a barren waste.
Il am absolutely committed to the
policy OF the utmost practicable de-
velopment of our waterways, both as
supplementary to other means OF
transportation and also as physical
regulators of railroad rates. I know
of some instances in this country
where. very unwisely, the people
have allowed to pass out of their
control forever canals which had
been built at great public expense
out of the taxation of the people.
''In some cases these canals were
utterly abandoned; in other they
have gone into the control of private
transportation companies, thereby
absolutely losing their capacity as
public regulators of transportation
rates. One open river or navigable
channel is capable of transporting as
much traffic as 20 railroads. while
in most instances it could be con-
structed at the cost of one"

Sir Joseph Hooker. the famous

the age of twenty-one he accompan-

James Clark Ross, fitted out by the
British government for the purpose
of Investigating the phenomena of
terrestrial magnetism in the Antarc-
tic seas In 1916 he was appointed
botanist to the geological survey of
Great Britain. The following year
Dr.. Hooker undertook a journey to
India to investigate the flora of a
hitherto unexplored region of the
Himalayas. Similar trips of explora-
ton were made by him to Bengal,
Syria, Palestine, Morocco and the
Greater Atlas, and to California and
the Rocky mountain region Of Amer

were a number of superb volumes on

PO|NDEXTER ON |R-
R|GAT|ON
SAYS THAT THIS STATE SHOULD
BE AS MUCH INTERESTED IN
THIS SUBJECT AS ANY STATE
in THE UNION.

Congressman Miles Poindexter of
Spokane, representing the Third
| Washington district in congress,
writes as follows from Washington,
| D. c.. to r. Insinger, chairman of
the board of control of the National
| Irrigation congress, Spokane, in re-
Spouse to an inquiry as to the extent
to which the state of Washington is
interested in the questions affecting
irrigation, drainage, forestry, deep
| waterways, good roads and home
| building, and as to the manner in
which the 18th session in Spokane,
August 9 to IA, can be made of
greatest benefit to the state:
81 would say that the state of
Washington is as much interested in
the public improvements referred to
as any other state in the Union. My
opinion is. as frequently expressed,
that the most important event in the
material development of Washington
was the advent of the national Gov
eminent into the work Of reciama-
ton of arid and semi-arid lands.
'It does not require dissertation
on the subject to make obvious the
fact that vast areas which are now
practically incapable OF. supporting
any population being Irrigated and
gradually gotten into state of high
cultivation so that they will support
larger population to the square
mile, perhaps, than any other lands
in the world, will confer a maximum
| of benefits on the state Of Wash
ington.
"I have no doubt that this work
will be carried to a point which will
even far exceed our anticipations at
the present time. Such districts as
the Horse Heaven. Quincy Flats.
large areas in the vicinity of Pasco
and, perhaps, portions of the Big
Benb, will undoubtedly some day be
| the subjects Of very large irrigation
enterprises.
Forestry should property be re-
garded as complement of irrigatio
n and the means of irrigation in
Washington must depend TO a, GER
tain extent upon the conservation OF
the tremendous sources of water sup
ply in the forests on the western
slopes of the Occur d'Alenes, Bitter
Roots and the Blue mountains, and
in the great eastern watershed oil
the Cascades.
$50 far as good roads are con-
cerned, I am firmly convinced thai
national bodybuilding will very soon
become again. as it was in the early
days Of the republic, a national is.
sue, and I am heartily in favor Of
liberal and progressive policy oil
national road-building. We should
have a complete system of nationa
roads covering the length ant
breadth of the republic, to be sup
plemented by state roads covering
