average elevation of something like
1000 feet above the sea level and
that an abundance of water can be
had by settlers for domestic uses by
digging down into the earth twelve
or fifteen feet. He says that every
year since he has been on Ten Mile
Park he has raised good crops. Of
macaroni. wheat, oats. barley, stock
peas aid potatoes without Irrigation
and that his neighbors are doing like
wise. From twelve to thirty-five
bushels OF wheat Is the ordinary
yield per acre. Oats produce from
forty to forty-five bushels per acre
and barley in proportion. Our peo-
pie should work to save what moisture
they have. instead OF trying to get
more of It," said Mr.. Smith. There
is almost as much damage done to
Colorado agriculture by excessive ir-
rigation as from too little water. ac-
cording to Mr.. Smith.
There will this year be about five
hundred acres on Ten Mile Park culti-
waited under the dry farming system
and good crops are being cinfldently

hibit of products and be told at first

the facts about it and know from
pamphlets and press about all the real
opportunities there, the second and
greatest stage of the upbuilding of
the Northwest will begin.
Steps have been taken to bring this
about. The method has the CO. opera

named has been gained by twenty
years of travels though them.
Specifically. this League is needed
and created to advertise and distrib-

maintain the centrally located expo

Chicago and to display there fresh
fruits in season, vegetables and

the real estate men aud all others in

prospective purchasers.
Still more Important! This Lea
que will carry on for period of years
national campaign of education
concerning the Northwest, to talk to
the people of the entire country about
what is being done. can be done and
will be done in wonder working in
the Northwest. In this way we can
talk to millions of people; we are
offered a contract by q responsible
agency to reach 100000 reading
people each month, including pictor
ial matter of various districts. The
public never has been adequately in
formed about the region as q whole
and naturally is skeptical about
claims of individual advertisers.
Combining to remove skepticism is

the greatest general benefit.

complish the big part of the task for
which boosters clubs have BEEN or
ganized throughout the towns and cit

can accomplish through this League
a work too big to be done single

In the past there has been lack of
union. combustion of effort and
pooling of expense. The cost of dis
