Bismarck daily tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, Dakota [N.D.]) 1881-1916, 1910-07-24

IF the irrigable land in the western
half OF North Dakota had been irri-
gated this year the net income from
crops produced on this land for this
season alone would have been over
fifteen million dollars if figured at a
conservative value of $40 per acre.
This net income, over and above the
! cost of producing crops on irrigated
land in this state, would pay for the
cost of installing the irrigation
plants"
This statement was made recently
by State Engineer Atkinson, who is
familiar with the water supply aad
irrigable crops over the state. The
irrigable land referred to by the state
engineer consists of the land which
can be irrigated from our streams
and coulees without undue expense,
and does not take into account a much
! larger area which could be irrigated
, from wells. Mr.. Atkinson is a firm
! believer in the value Of irrigation as
an aid to dry farming, and says the
time Is not far distant when all the
water which runs down our streams
and coulees will be stored and turned
over the land, with the result that one
and onehalf million acres will be
made to produce an annual crop that
will be three times as large as the
average crop under the present farm
ing methods. Not only will the storm
waters in our streams and coulees be
utilized, but the use of we'll water
pumped by windmills or gasoline en-
gines will provide sufficient water for
the irrigating of vegetables to supply
; the farmers family for the entire year.
The certainty of a crop of alfalfa
every year under irrigation in the
western part of North Dakota is now
no longer an experiment, and the sue
cess of many who have attempted it
is of great encouragement to others.
The first crop has been cut and has
averaged over two tons per acre, with
the expectation Of two more cuttings,
which will bring the total up to five
tons per acre. Several who have
drained coulees and have used the
spring run-off in irrigating their land
have excellent stands of all grains
under the. ditch, the wheat alone CIV
ing promise of thirty bushels per acre,
while wheat on the same farm and
un-irrigated is a total failure. If for
no other purpose an irrigating plant
for protection against season like
the present one is worth all 1t costs.
For an illustration of the value OF
water as an aid to good farming 1t Is

only necessary to observe in many
fields of grain that when there is a
low spot or where the snow accumu.
lated in drifts and the water from
them sank into the soil. there the
grain is still strong and doing well,
while on the remainder OF the field
the grain is dead.
The state engineer has records in
his office showing that when spring
flooding has been practiced in the
state that the annual yield Of wheat
has been thirty bushels and other
grains and hay crop in like proper
ton. The state engineer Is sending
out, through the Office Of experiment
stations OF the United States depart
nent of agriculture, about twenty-five
hundred bulletins on irrigation in
North Dakota" to farmers residing in
the western part OF the state. and Is
urging upon all who have land that
can be irrigated the necessity of OBJ
tanning a water right through his Of
flee. and of asking his advice as to the
best methods Of constructing irriga-
ton plants. Even if a man can only
irrigate ten acres it is worth while.
During the past week the engineer has
layed out Il five hundred acre project
on the old Fort Stevenson bottoms for
G. F.. Fredendoll. He has also just
completed detailed surveys for the IT.
rigation of two thousand acres on the
Painted Woods lake bottoms. the water
to be taken from Painted Woods lake
and pumped by a gasoline engine, the
maximum lift being fifteen feet. Many
water rights are being taken out along
the Mouse river north of Minot, the
bottom lands being peculiarly we'll To-
Gated for irrigation by pumping. Henry
Shannon, who has large farm on the
river east of Carpio, has recently in
stalled centrifugal pump and is lift
ing the water by power obtained from
gasoline traction, with the result
that he will obtain over two tons of
wild hay per acre, while the unirri-
gated land will yield hardly enough
hay to pay for the cutting.
Accompanied by Prof E. F. Chan
dler of the State university, formerly
state engineer, Mr.. Atkinson this week
made long automobile trip from
Garrison to Williston, Prof. Chandler
being detailed by the United States
Geological Survey to investigate reser-
voir cites and power possibilities on
the Fort Berthold Indian reservation,
soon to be opened, and Mr.. Atkinson
will look after several irrigation pro-
jects in Mountrail and Williams coun
ties.

VIGILANCE REDoUBLED.

Both men thanked Jailer Sydnor
for his kindness toward them, for
Mr.. Sydnor has been as considerable
Of their comfort as he could possibly
be under the circumstances. And the
two men appreciate what he has done.
But vigilance was redoubled last
night, and Jailer Sydnor, who, since
Fay and Harris have been in his
care, has slept only four hours out
of twenty-four. slept hardly a wink
last night. Anxiety for the safe-keep-
ing Of the men deepened with the
passing of sentence upon them, FOR
despair gives rise to new courage
and more fertile invention. No GER
tain apprehension was felt by the
jail officials. but they decided to be
prepared for any emergency that
might arise.
The two men will probably be

result Of race riots which occurred
here at 1 o'clock this afternoon, and
ragged until far into the night. That
many persons were not killed or
seriously wounded Is due to the fact
that the negroes offered no resistance
except in insulated cases. and the
whites contented themselves with
using clubs. sticks. and stones instead
OF firearms.
Until the Santa Fe Railroad began
using negro labor on construction
work in this secslon black face was
a rarty. and trouble has been bre v,
ing ever since negroes in consider
able numbers began coming into
town. This feeling has been greatly
intensified recently by alleged infam-
matory utterances OF some OF the
negro leaders. who asserted that they
were here to stay. The trouble be
gan this afternoon when two white
youths became involved in a fight
with @ negro.
Quickly the word spread, and in a
short space OF time a mob OF more
than 900 men and boys were sweep
ing through the section OF the town
/ occupied by Negroes, clubbing and
stoning every black head that ap-
peared.
The officers of the law protested
were brushed aside and literally run
over by the crowd. For several hours
the main mob maintained it's strength
of about 1000 or more men, and by
that time every section OF the city
was raided as by a fine tooth comb
for negroes. the latter fleeing in
every direction. The very bulk of
the mob was a favor of the negroes.
as pursuit Vas hampered by mum
bers, not more than a dozen of the
fleeing blacks being overtaken. About
9 O'Clock tonight. when not a negro
remained in town, the mob dispersed.
and at this hour here Il is believed
there will be no further trouble.

Fay has told Jailer Sydnor that
this was his last job. and that when
he was liberated he expected TO set
tie down 10 some business and work
honestly for his living. He denies
that he was In Richmond at the time
OF the robbery. and says that he was
here some days before. This leaves
the impression that he was the man
who engineered the project and laid
the plans.
Little Dick" with his frail body,
presented a mournful picture. II will
never live 20 get out Of the peniten-

this means the last OF me-" An at
tempt was made TO re-assure him by
saying that. perhaps. he would be

don't expect that" he said. Fay also
shook his head at the suggestion of
a pardon.
When confronted with the restau-
rant keeper who went to identify him
as the man who had been twice to
the restaurant at 8 O'Clock in the
morning. Fay denied it vehemently.
I'm a thief and robber," he said,
"and I've gone pretty low. But I've
never gone so low as 20 enter a place
like that. This man never saw me
