nal is among the largest of these.
During his trip through Colorado
MIR. Newell inspected the Gunniso.
tunnel, which was formally opened
in 1909 by President Taft. The Gun
nison tunnel which is the largest irri-
CATION project attempted in the West,
has proved successful. The govern
ment will be paid back the money ex-
pended in this big engineering feat
through yearly installments, during
the next ten years. The money in
vested by the government in these
projects, MIR. Newell stated. is sure to
be returned, as not one of the projects
has proved IA failure and land has
increased in value between 100 and
800 per cent.
Mr.. Newell is comforting with the
local officials connected with the
Denver reclamation service offices. He
expects to leave for Chicago. where
the transportation offices of the SER
vice are located, the first of next
week, and from there he will go TO
Washington.

That the government will push
work on the irrigation canal which
will drain the Grand river and water
the valley near Grand junction, was
declared yesterday, by +. II. Newell,
director OF the United States Recla-
nation Service, Mt Washington. who
is spending few days in Denver. He
has just completed n lengthy trip
through the Western states, inspect
ing the various projects which have
been completed and which are under
way.
Building of the canal is earnestly
desired by property holders through
out the valley. If il is carried through
il will mean big increase in the
price of land. Although private en-
tcrprises have taken hold OF irrigation
projects In the Grand valley, they
have not curIied the work through on
the scale which the government would
adopt. The canal, as proposed, would
be the only high line canal in the dis
trict and would open up large tracts
OF arid land.
Mr.. Newell in his present trip has
visited all the states in the West in
which the reclamation service is af
work. This includes Nebraska, North
and South Dakota, Montana, Idaho.
Washington, Oregon, Texas, Utah, Ne
vada, California, Arizona, New Mex
leo and Colorado. Colorado was the
last state to be visited.
"Property owners are eager and
anxious for irrigation and some OF
them, while skeptical at the start, are
quite convinced after having seen the
immense increase in the value of their
holdings" Mr.. Newell stated. "Of
course, as in any new project or pro-
grcssive movement, you encounter the
real old 'moss-backs' who have to be
shown Well the government has
shown them and they now are among
those who shout loudest in the praise
of the reclamation service. Their
approval is gauged only by the bene-
fits of the service. They now are
fairly shouting for irrigation. When
you consider that you cannot buy irri-
gated land under about 800 an acre,
this is easily cxplainable."
Mr.. Newell says that the govern
mcnt now has $50, 900. 900 invested in
reclamation and irrigation projects
throughout the country. Next year
IL Is planned TO invest about 81, ,OOO.-
600 more In projects, most Of which
will be applied to old projects. Com
