April /, 1910 That date is a memorable one
not only to the settlers. whose entries are
liable to cancellation for failure to make the
payments due but also to the reclamation
service which Is concerned In securing the re.
turn Of its investment in the engineering
works. II IL also matter of interest to ctl.
zens OF the number OF sections containing fea.
sIble projects the construction Of which cannot
be undertaken without additional funds. As
the repayments are made through the local
land Offices and not directly to the service
some time must elapse before the actual
amounts collected are known. On a number OF
the projects. like Sun River. Shoshone and
Huntley, the settlers have already made their
initial payments and will not be delinquent
on the second installment until April, 1911,
which enables them to market two crops be-
tween payments On several other projects,

projects there will be no delinquents. On a
number of projects the engineering work Is
not fully completed. but water is ready for
large areas and Is being supplied on a rental
basis pending the announcement OF the actual
cost of water right. The reclamation service
has derived considerable revenue from these
sources and at the same time the farmers
have been enabled to increase the areas in
cultivation. The following financial statement
is interesting AS showing the status OF the

Reviewing the history OF the reclamation

expenditures were in the year 1907. In 1902
the expenditures were less than 100000 and
in 1908 less than 81. 900, 900 In 1904 they we're

less than s10,000000; in 1907, nearly $4,000
000 Then the expenditures decreased to
$10,O00000 In 1908, to about $4,000, 900 in 1909,
and in 1910 they will be little under $S.000,.
900. II is expected that In 1911 they will
shrink to about 100000, which sum will
probably continue to be available during after
years, assuming that the water.right charge,
are paid as they fall due
