IRRIGATE MASSACHUSETTS,.
New Mexico Reclaims Million Acres
of Desert and Has Water for -Four
Million Acres More.

Water enough to irrigate nearly the
whole state of Massachusetts, to make
a garden out of Rhode Island four
times over, or to flood the entire state
of Texas several inches deep is now
waiting for new farmers in the new
state of New Mexico, according to a
report of the state engineer just pub
lished. AS result Of the most COM
plete stream flow investigation in any
western state, at a cost of $4,000 n
year, it has been found that six mill
lion acre feet of water is available
from New Mexico streams for irrga-
ton! enough TO raise crops on four
million acres. A few years ago New
Mexico was considered an arid des-
ert; now nearly a million acres are
covered with grain. orchards and
gardens, and four times this area Is
waiting the magic touch OF water
The engineer has also found that halt
million horse power in hydraulic en-
ergy Is available in the streams. As
an evidence Of the influx OF irriga-
tors, the engineer reports nearly three
hundred water permits for irrigation
issued in the past two years, repre-
senting a million acres OF land.

FARM PRODUCTS IN NORTHWEST
ADVANCING IN PRICE RAPIDLY

the same price in October, 1910, as
in October, 1902. However, it is not
ed that the humble turnip got am
bilious in 1902 and jumped over 40
per cent between April and October
of that year.
The whole subject is interesting
and has been gone into thoroughly by
President Beckwith. While his reve-
lations are not calculated to add to
the peace Of mind of the heads Of
families, they at least point the way
out. In his opinion, the answer to
the problem Is to go onto the soil
and raise something, it don't seem to
matter much what.
These figures indicate that Port
land is a high-priced market for
farm produce" said President Beck
with, land it should be noted that
these quotations are wholesale, what
is paid to the farmer. The high
prices are due to the increase in con-
sumption over production. While the
production has increased in the Pa
cific northwest, the increase in con-
sumption has been even more rapid,
necessitating bringing farm produce
from the middle west that should,

PORTLAND PAPERS

Washington, March N22.-Sometime

Mr.. II. A. Jackson OF Tonawanda, N.

gardng the opportunities for home

REPLIED with such information as he
had at his command also suggested
that Mr.. Jackson write to the Port

ther information. Senator Bourne
today received from Mr.. Jackson a
letter in which he says:

There are two items, in the table
Of prices submitted, to which 1 de-
sire to call particular attention-eggs
and poultry. There is no good rea-
son why the Pacific northwest should
not produce enough eggs and chick
ems to fully supply the local demand
and thus relieve the wholesalers of
the necessity of ordering carload af-
ter carload from the middle west.
There is absolutely no danger of an
overproduction in these lines, as there
is little prospect that the increase in
supply will exceed, or even equal the
demand occasioned by a rapidly grow
ing population.
Let us assume that there are g.
900 farmers in Oregon and that
each farmer keeps an average of 20
hens at the present time; that each
hen will raise, during the coming
summer, brood of 10 chickens. and
during the balance Of the year will
lay IL dozen eggs. The chickens
should certainly be worth so cents
each when ready for market and the
eggs will sell for a minimum price OF
25 cents per dozen, making a total OF

Who hasn't time to fuss a d fret,
But gets there every tinie-you

The man who wins is tho IN III

Who dreams of this and dreams

But never sails in and throws

Who fears the feel of a drop of

THE COWBOYS RETURN

THE COWBOYS RETURN
(Rorodore Theovelt in Leslie's)
Backward, turn backward, oh
Time, with your wheels,
Aeroplanes, wagons and auto
mobiles,
Dress me once more in sombrero
that flops
Spurs, and a flannel shirt, slicker
and chaps.
Put six shooter or two in my.
hand,
Snow me a yearliug to rope and
to brand,
Out where the sage brush is
dusty and gray,
Make me a cowboy again for a
day.
Give me a broncho that knows
how to dance,
Buckskin of color and wicked OF
glance,
New to the feeling of brides
and bits,
Give me a quirt that will sting
where it hits.
Strap on the poncho behine in a
roll,
Pass me the lariat, dear to my
soul.
Over the trail let me gallop
away,
Make me cowboy again for a
day.
Thunder of hoofs on the range
as you ride,
Kissing of iron, add smoking OF
hide,
Below of cattle, and snort OF
cayuse.
Shorthorns from Texas as wild
as the deuce;
Midnight stampede, and the
milling of herds,
Yelling of the cowmen too angry
for W ordS,
Right in the thick of it all
would say,
Make me a cowboy again for {
day.
Under the star,studded canopy
vast,
Campfire and coffee and com
fort at last.
Bacon that sizzles and clisps il

After a roundup smells good tC

Stories of ranchers and rustler
retoll
Over the pipes as the ember
grow cold;
These are the times that OLE
memories play,
Make me a cowboy again for
