Wonders Of lrrigatiou

While irrigation is as old as an
cient Egypt, its modern development
particularly in the arid west is COM
paratively recent.
Where only few years ago the
great Arkansas Valley was vast
stretch of country used only by the
cattle men is today one of the rich
est sections to be found. This was
brought about by applying water to
the land in such quantities and at
such times as are found necessary and
desirable to insure the fullest growth
and most perfect development Of crop
growing. In this part Of Colorado
the source of water for irrigation
comes from the Arkansas River which
rises in the Rocky Mountains and is
supplied by the melting SHOWS and
mountain rains. These waters are d.
vcrted from the river into canals by
putting dams across the river and
is then distributed to the land through
latcrals. Some Of the main canals are
sevcnty-hvc to eighty miles in length
and waters thousands OF acres.
Many crops OF eastern states where
rain is depended upon often suffer
from the lack OF moisture or from the
effects OF long rainy spells while the
crops here are supplied with moisture
Just as they require u ana according
to the crops grown. By putting wat
er where and when needed we always
have good roads and We never have
to wait on the weather to harvest or
deliver crops. 1t is nothing to see a
farmer hauling loads weighing from
FIVE to seven tons. The question is
often asked whether the canals are
permanently built and the water sup
My is certain. Irrigation in this Sec
| tion is not an experiment nor is there
any uncertainty as to sure crop re-
| turns. The canals have been built
and operated for a number of years
and have substantial head works and
an abundant water supply.
People who have never seen an ir-
rigatcd section are liable to think they
would not like the work OF iIrigating
and that it would take long time
for them to become accustomed to it.
whereas in fact after learning the first
principles OF running water it becomes
a pleasure instead of a task and many
OF our best irrigators are new men
in the country.
The advantages of irrigation must
be seen to be truly appreciated. 1t
insures return for your labor and
makes the harvest certain.
