1t is hard for those not Informed
to understand why Blackfoot district
lands, so sparsley populated, attain
greater values than agricultural land
in Illinois, Iowa, Nebraska or Mime
sofa. The answer is that these val
ley lands in Idaho grow much high
er priced product than corn or oats.
Diversified products, together with
fruit, will bring in from ten to twen-
ty times the revenue that an acre of
grain will produce. Another thing
of Importance is that the soil does
not wear out. 1t possesses that rare
quality of renewing itself, and crops
follow themselves for years without
the slightest deterioration in quality
or quantity Potatoes have been
grown on the same ground for eleven
years, sugar beets fifteen years, and
the same is true of other products.
The secret of the great success of ag-
riculture in the Blackfoot country is
the certainty of the crop and of its
bountiful yield.

Blackfoot is the seat of government
OF all this great Bingham county.
Of all natural resources the great
est is water. 1t is the backbone O

hopes to interest in examining thi

The American Falls Canal ant
Power company's canal is the chic
irrigation channel. Cost of a perpet
ual water right is $40 per acre. The
main canal is rs feet wide and car
r1es six feet of water. There are a
number of other canals in the locali-
ty between Blackfoot and Idaho Falls,
the property of cooperative organiza-
lions OF the farmers. The irrigation
canal rights extend back for a period
OF 20 years, and would, if it became
a question, enjoy certain valuable
rights of priority in the matter of d.
version of water from the Snake.
Much OF the land is sub-irrigated.. On
the Tabor tract, west of Blackfoot,
water from wells is applied extensive
ly to land and is successful. The wa
ter plane of the valley has risen in
the last few years since irrigation
has become more general. Good, ev-
erlasting veins of water, and of the
purest quality, are found at SO to
lao feet in depth. The flow from a
well is sufficient to irrigate a quarter
section.
The Blackfoot country excels in
fruit raising, vegetable culture and
like production. In the exceptionally
mild and favorable climate all ele-
ments are conducive to the best re-
suits. Ten years of experimenting
bears out the highest expectations for !

fruits. The returns are regular and

A colony of over $50 people are
supported on less than 400 acres of
land at the State Mental Hospital at
Blackfoot. The records can be abso-
lutely verified. Sixty acres of wheat
on the institution farm produced g.
400 bushels. Twenty-Five acres in
orchard bore $500 boxes of apples
worth 81 per box. Every kind of veg
etable was raised. Two and one-half
acres grew 1877 tons of stock carrots.
The institution also disposed of $3.50
worth of products in the Blackfoot
local market, besides all required for
the use of the inmates.
The productiveness in dollars and
cents OF Bingham county last year
was better than $4,000, 900 and it is
worthy OF mention here to state that
Bingham county received the gold
medal for the best sack of wheat,
the best sack of oats, gold medal

ourteen miles from Blackfoot. His

light, to Mr.. w. H. Scott, mining
nan of Goldfield, Nevada, and John

: P1ngree, a banker of Ogden, Utah
: netting a splendid return for the la
Dor and improvements during tire,
years. Mr.. Groseclose began clearins
the land of sage in September. Hi
ran his irrigating bitches with the
ploW. His only assistance was giver
by his small boy. He broke down the
sage with a drag and disposed of il
by burning and turning the smaller
brush under. He then plowed it and
sowed Is bushels of wheat on 19
acres. This piece he irrigated once
IN the fall season. His crop was
4SR bushels per acre. In starting
the apple orchard, Mr.. Groseclose
planted 70 trees to the acre, the trees
being 25 feet apart. The kinds he
favors are Delicious and King David.
These trees are now bearing bounti-
fully, and easily bear 500 worth of
apples to the acre, basing the price
at 81 per box gathered.
Mr.. H. NJ Adamson cultivated 20
acres south of town. His orchard is
principally apples and pears. Mr..
Adamson's place is good example of
what is being done by the beginners
around him. For his Jonathan ap-
pies he realized $3.50 per box on first
bearing. His orchard brings 5000
per acre clear.
p. M. Kennedy's ten-acre orchard
is planted to Wealthy, Gano, Wolf
River and Northern Spy apples. This
farm is also growing Kaffir corn,
which does extremely well, also a
large quantity of other vegetables
and small fruits. Three-year-old
apple trees yield about half a box
each. The crop of apples from the
Matteson place of eight acres, near
Blackfoot, brought $4,000 on the
trees.
W. T. Hawkey, of the Pleasant
view farm OF ~ acres, was formerly
engaged in the fruit raising and ship
ping business in Colorado. He says
that every condition is favorable to
Blackfoot for becoming a great fruit
shipping center, and that apples,
cherries, pears and other fruits, es-
pecially berries, will do better than |
here. "In order of choice and mer- !
