Is needed to scatter over the dry
fields. Even the fields that we call
fertile need more water, and ought
to have it.
THE hay crop of this country
could be doubled, without extra la
Dor or expense. if there were water
unlimited for the growing of grass.
Farmers impoverish themselves
paying $50 and $40 a ton-for fer
tilizr. But the fertilizer without the
water is useless and with irrigation
the water would not cost half a cent
ton.
When the government spends its
millions and billions on irrigation it
will be doing the real work of the
human race on this earth. Our work
here is to develop the earth, make
it into a beautiful park, fertile, every
inch irrigated and cultivated-a park
in which human beings may live to-
mony and friendship
This work is going to be done,
and the advocates of irrigation help
it along. The day will come when
not a dollar will be spent for a rifle,
a bullet. a battleship or a lawyer.
Emulation will replace competition
everywhere. Contests between men
will be contests of mind, each strug-
Cling, not to help himself. but to
help the whole of humanity by add
ing to the wealth and knowledge of
the race.
This rich country, with it's great
lakes, its enormous fortunes, it's vast
tracts of land that need irrigation,
and that will repay irrigation with
ten dollars for one, ought to lead in
the task of identifying this earth.
The people of France, after tn
