Secretary Ballinger to Probe
Yellowstone Project
FARMERS ASK 10 ACRE UNIT
IRRIGATION PROBLEM IN WEST.
ERN NoRTH DAKOTA AND
EASTERN MONTANA WILL BE
THOROUGHLY INVESTIGATED
BECAUSE or PROTEST.

Washington, d. c.. June 1o.--As the
result of protests OF Montana and
North Dakota farmers interested IN
the Yellowstone Irrigation project, SEQ
retary Ballinger of the Interior depa~t-
ment today decided to send a special
inspector to the scene and report upon
conditions as they actually exist at
this project It will be the duty of
this inspector to report upon the feas-
ability of applying the eighty-acrs
farm unit to these lands.
An Unnecessary HardsFsip.
The farmers claim that any other
than ten-acre unit will work unnec-
essary hardship upon them as the cli-
matte conditions are such as to make
possible the growth OF only the more
hardy cereals and grains. Secretary
Ballinger inclines to favor the conten-
ton OF the farmers. He is familiar
with the country, but adds that he win
be bound by his inspectors report. In
the meantime the eighty-acre unit
regulation will not be enforced.
Has Exceeded Estimate.
An effort was also made 20 have the
Gp4HtE "a TIE X&AA8I
OF all those farmers who VIII fad
Themselves unable to pay the increased
cost Of reclamation In connection wteh
this project; as previously stated. the
actual cost has been s42.50 per acre.
when highest previous estimate OF cost
of construction was $40.
No relief was promised on ttis
score, the secretary taking the position
that 1t was a matter for congress to
determine. He said that he would lay
the matter before the senate committee
on irrigation, which will visit the pro-
ject on Sept. 2.
Senators McCumber and Johnson OF
North Dakota and Senator Garter Of
Montana, as well as Representative
Hanna attended the conference at the
interior department A. F. Noble OF
Monday was also present
