Well-knoWn Writer in Stocks and Mort
cages, an Eastern Financial Paper,
SAYS That There Are No Safer In
vestments Than Irrigated Lands in
the West and That Western States
Are Most Prosperous in the Nation.

RADIO is raising more wealth on it's
farms than on its mining properties.
1t is being covered by the irriagtion
enterprises that have for their basis
the best and surest of moisture pro-
ducers. All along the valleys are
seen here and there bitches and
the mountains and the rich bottom
lands are being utilized by the farm
ers who have the advice of the best
experimenters of the nation in tell
ing them what to do to make a sue
cess. The dry farmers are also max
ing progress and they are reaping
from the one-time desert crops that
would have been wonders in the
farther east ten years ago.
To handle these properties are the
irrigation securities, and they have
been perfected to a degree that
makes them among the best of in

as one western land owner put it,,
has made the irrigation bond res
pectable." That is. the investors
have been impressed by the worth
and the promise of this class of agri-
cultural development
AS one gets out into this country
he hears a great deal about irriga-
ton bonds and learns to study their
various forms.
The irrigation bonds and securi-
ties may be divided into these class
eS:
/. Those issued by incorporated
irrigated districts, preserving the
features fthe municipal bond.
2. Those issued by corporations
The Wenatchee daily world. [volume] (Wenatchee, Wash.) 1905-1971, 1909-06-26

/ in any part of the country according
| to our population. What we need is
to get our securities to a market.
If we knew how to reach the east
ern investor and convince him, so
thta he would send his money 1900
miles for investment we could do
many times the business we do now
We could make all this country
blossom as the rose.
Il have lot of farm mortgages
in my safe that I am carrying to
get market for them. They pay a
high rate Of interest and are as good
as any security that my bank holds,
but the east does not realize what
they are, and 1t is hard to convince
man who is more than a thousand
miles away"
This is the expression heard often.
1t should be remembered that about
all these people have on which to

land as lies out of doors, but they
have not had time to improve it.
Land that is worth $40 an acre will
be worth four times that in five
years. Land that is not as good
and will not produce as good crops
is selling 500 miles east of Denver
for $50 an acre
In Utah something of the same
sort of condition exists, though it is
modified by the solidarity of the
Mormon people. They have their
banks and their capitalists, and they
care for their own. But the Nor
mons are not the only people on
these fertile lands. The Gentiles
are a large part of the population,
and they must look to the more ordi-
nary channels for their funds with
which to make improvements to de-
velop their holdings.
Tens of thousands of acres in
Utah are being settled for the first
time and irrigation enterprises are
being pushed here as elsewhere in
the west. The attendant enterprises
are going along with them and the
villages are becoming prosperous.
Here the farm mortgage has as good
a standing as anywhere in the east,
and the loans are of the highest
quality. The settlers are of high
class. mostly coming from the mid
die west
On the Pacific coast is another
sort of condition. AS one goes into
California he finds that he is in
sense in another country. That is
the people of that state are so far
from the east that they do not ex-
pect to get their capital for small
enterprises elsewhere than at home.
The loans are made on small prop
critics from Californians. 1t is only

when great enterprise are carried
on that they look to the east. Up
and down the rich valleys are be-
ing opened irrigated tracts, the wa
ter. being taken from the stream
and from artesian wells. These lands
sold for So or 81 a half dozen years
ago. Now they are worth 5000 to
$500 an acre. Men are coming into
this region and are buying the land
that still is held low and are plan
ming to extend the irrigated field

who engage solely in supplying wa
ter for irrigation purposes, ant
which are secured by mortgage on
the company's irrigation system and
franchises.

system, own the land fertilizet

through some sinking fund provi
sion.
4. Those issued by corporations
operating under the federal Carey
act, and which are secured by a
mortgage on the irrigation system
together with a lien of the state up
on the segregated tracts about to be
irrigated.
5. Those issued by corporations
operating under the federal Carey
act and which not only retain the
security of the irrigated system and
of the state lien, but which are fur
Their secured by deposit of settlers
mortgages with the trustee of the
bOndholders.
The latter class of bonds combines
all the elements of strength found
in all of the other classes, and may
be said to represent as a class the
ideal irrigation bond.
The Carey act feature has safe
guarded the investor in:
1. The sufficiency of the water
supply.
2. The completion and stability
of the irrigation system.
8. Perfect titles to the land.
4. A developed community of
small farms
5. The lien of the state
Across the Wyoming plains and
into the river-coursed sections of
Idaho and Montana another sort of
development is seen. The projects
under the Carey act and on a big
scale by private companies are mar
velous. Hundreds of thousands of
acres that had never seen the pillow
and would not have done so but for
the enterprise and the expenditure
of men with millions are being
brought to a high state of cultiva-
ton. New towns are being started
on every side and new lines of rail-
way are projected. This country is
new, yet it is peopled by the best
sort of settlers. They have one
great need-money.
"The people of the east think we
are wild and woolly," one loan bro
ker expressed it, because we are so
far from the centers of civilization.
They do not realize that there are
as many college graduates here as

Irrigated districts in Washington,
Idaho, Oregon and Montana are de-
olared by an editorial correspondent
of Bonds and Mortgages OF Chicago,
to offer an interesting field for safe
investment, the writer saying among
other things that the states that lie
across the great divide of the Rock
les are the most prosperous Of the
nation. Under the heading, Farm
Mortgages In the Farther West;
What Investments in Loans Promise
in inter-Mountain Regions" this
article appears:
For many years the investment
field for farm mortgages has been
largely confined to the prairie states.
There the increase of population was
largely centered and the immigra-
ton came from the older states and
built up on the plains new homes
and farms Money was needed for
the development and this demand
was made prominent to the east,
where the source of money Is large

gone on the farther west has reach

Most of the farmers are raising

1t Is not unusual to get $500 a year
