The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1909-04-01

A scientist of the Department of Ag-
riculture at Washington has recently
brought together many interesting
facts about the latent life of seeds
anu their ability to Withstand very
low temperatures. After recalling in
stances in which seeds have sprouted
alter lying apparently dead for hun
dreds of years-in one case 1900 years
this scientist gives the results of
experiments on subjecting seeds to a
freezing cold. Corn, oats, fennel, and
some flower seeds were exposed for
118 days to a temperature of 40 de-
grees Fahrenheit below zero. Still,
when placed in suitable surroundings
nearly all of the fennel, oat, and corn
seeds, and many of the others, germi-
mated. From these experiments it is
concluded that in a resting seed, the
protoplasm, or the principle of life,
is in a state of inaction not compar-
able to that of a smoldering fire, but
rather like that of a chemical mix
ture capable of forming a combination
at whatever time the required condi-
lions of temperature and illumination
are present.

MAKING THE DESERT BLOSSOM.

Of the 81 irrigation projects under
taken by the reclamation service, nine
we're completed by the first of the year,
says the Oregonian. The expenditure
at that date was $42,0 91 900 for all
projects, with a balance Of over $47,-
OOO. 900 yet to be spent on work in
progress. 1t may be of interest to
know that the most expensive is the
Okanogan project in Washington,
wnere 5000 acres are to be reclaimed,
at an estimated cost of $3.50, 900, about
$3.50 per acre, and on which about
80 per cent of the work is done. The
least expensive, as estimated, is the
n1lnidoka pumping project in Idaho,
to reclaim $4,000 acres at $12 an acre.
This, however, is in connection with
the Minidoka gravity project, which
is complete at a cost of a trifle above
$21 for each of its $4,000 acres, which
is a factor in lessening the cost of the
sister project. Other expensive canals
are the Tieton, in Washington, for 3d..
900 acres at $50 an acre, and the UNA
tilla project of 20,440 acres at a dollar
less. These two are about 80 per cent
complete. One of the largest projects
Is Iu0 0OuIu OluO ulflOlOh VI IIhO L oJ
ette-Boise, about half done, to cost
$50 per acre for water to reclaim 1872
900 acres. The greatest acreage is in
the klamath project, in Oregon and
California, 10000, the estimated cost
of which is $36 an acre.
All of the projects are located in re-
gions where the soil is very fertile,
and just as soon as water is put on the
land it's value rises to a minimum of
$40 an acre. Such will be the case
with the Malheur project, in Eastern
Oregon, latest reports from which state
the owners of the road grants have
signed up. Reclamation of the and
in hat part of the state will add
millions to it's taxable value, a blessing
much to be desired, to say naught
of the addition to the producing ele-
ment of the population of the state.
