IRRIGATION PLANS
IN THE NORTHWEST
Hundred Million Dollars Worth OF
Lands to Be Added to
Irrigable Area.

Some idea of the Importance to the
future development of the Pacific north
west of the government irrigation
projects is to be gained from the
statement issued by the reclamation
service in answer to requests for infor
nation as to the estimated costs Of
reclamation of present projects, the net
costs, the irrigable areas, the water
right charges and the repayments to
the government which the settlers will
make in paying for their water. It
shows that in Idaho $22,O0O,000 worth
Of lands will be added to the agri-
cultural areas, in Washington 1,0O0,-
600 and in Oregon $l0,600,OO0, while
Montana leads with more than S4O,-
100000
These four states will have more
than $lOOOOO,O00 out Of the estimated
total value Of all present projects,
which is S239, ABS, 900.
Up to October 81, 1909, the settlers
on these projects had repaid to the gov
eminent in Oregon 81 900, in Wash.
ington $77 100, in Idaho 81, 200 and
Ia Montana $sl 900.
Lands now actually under water on
these projects are ia Idaho $4,000 out
OF a total Of 100000 acres TO be re
claimed; in Washington 10000 out Of q
total of POP ,000i in Oregon $1,000 out Of
10000 and in Montana about $4,000
out of total of about 100000 acres
The lowest charge per acre for pc
clamation Is on the Minid0ka projec
in Idaho, estimates running as low az
s2g and as high as $50. The highes
charge per acre is on the Okanogai
project in Washington, the umatilll
project in eastern Oregon coming mex
at 500
