Decision On Irrigation

The Supreme Court of Idaho has lust
rendered decision that will be far
reaching in it's results and be of in
calculable benefit to the country. The
decision in effect is that no man is en-.
titled to more irrigation water than he
needs no matter what he has heretofore
been getting. In the early days, when
cultivated land was scarce and there
was not much demand for water and no
scientific knowledge as to how much
was required TO successfully grow
crop 1t was the custom for each farmer
to have two or three times as much
water as he needed. Much good land
was made sour and soggy and was
greatly injured by too much watering.
The Supreme Court decision will change
all of this. While priority rights will
be carefully safeguarded, there will he
no wasting of water. The principle be.
ing established that no man is entitled
to more water than he needs, the next
step will be for experts to determine
that question. When that is done IL
will mean sufficient money for many
thousands Of acres more land than are
now in cultivation under any given
canal.

Money The Root OF Evil

Stanley Mccormick is the son of the
great reaper manufacturer who left
millions to his family. but Stanley's
millions have been his curse and his
undoing Some time ago his doting
relatives found in necessary to erect a
fifteen acre stockade in California, near
the city of Santa Barbara, into. which
they thrust Stanley like wild animal
in high board pasture. 1t was given
the name of ''Riven Rock" and there
for year Stanley has been closely
guarded as being a non compos mentis.
Recently Stanley's wife has conclud-
ed there is no prospect of his improve
ment mentally, morally and physically
and she has applied for the appointment
OF guardian over his estate. 1t is a
terrible termination of romance of the
