FARMING BY IRRIGATION

Farming by irrigation was practiced
in the remotest sime. and has been
known to the people of all ages. To
it has been ascribed the power and
the glory of ancient civilization. and
upon it depends the present-day ex-
istences of nearly one-ffth of the
human race In the United States
the subject is of greatest Importance.
The increase in our population and
consuming power. the growing for
eign demand for food stuffs and the
almost complete subjugation of the
cultivated humid areas have natur-
all turned attention to the possibility
of irrigation
The productivity of irrigated lands
is estimated by government officials
at about three times that of the rain
belt areas of the Mississippi Valley
States. Consequently the population
which can easily and comfortably
be supported is increasing in the
same ratio. Putting IL concretely an
irrigated farm OF forty acres will
support a family with the same degree
of comfort and profit as farm of
20 acres in Illinois or Iowa. This
is the reason, therefore, for the re-
markable price obtaining for de-
veloped irrigated land throughout
the western states.
Irrigation has made "a practical
science of agriculture; for, with all
the elemental forces under complete
control, chance is eliminated; the law
of cause and effect operates with.
out interruption, and crop failure

ly known. but in all the apple sec
lions of the Northwest the apples are
sold through the Fruit Growers
Association on sealed bids, even be-
fore the apples are packed and de-
livered to the association. Thus
there is not only a market. but a
keen demand, when only one of the
many bids are accepted by the
association. What business with the
same capital invested can compare
to that of the apple grower. in this
section, whose business is without
competition?
The fact that water is the essen
tial element in the successful de-
velopment of plant life and that
either the lack of it or an excess Of
its use will work material injury to

ton Of the seed to the matured crop
or ripened fruit the growth and de-
velopment is advanced. retarded OF
modified. not at the within or caprice
OF Nature, but by the enlightened
knowledge and under the skillful di-
rection of thefarmer.
Not only is the day OF harvest
determined with absolute certainty
in advance. but the very quality ami
yield may be accurately forecasted.
Thus the farmer becomes a manufac-
turer whose product Is measured by
his own genius and industry
The value OF irrigation is easily
measured. The United States gov
eminent has already expen led over
fifty million of dollars in the recla-
nation of arid lands, and private cor
porations and individuals have ex-
pended like amount, If not more.
Under the magic of irrigation. land
which was practically valucless before
the water was turned on now sells
readily at from $500 10 100000
per acre, according to Location anl
improvements.
The opportunities for securing
cheap irrigated farms are nearly
gone. There is plenty of Ian but
the water supply will n be eN-
hausted Values in the irrs tble dis
tricts are constantly risina, ana thf
demand is just as rapi ly and con-

Of the future. when climatic con-
ditions favor a district as it does
here and the farm operations are not
impeded because of Indecent weather
as in many sections. it offers special
inducements. The 800 or more days
of sunshine and the mild winters will
be a great factor to aid in the de-
