IRRIGAHNG WITH PUMPS
IN SpRING VALLEY

Forest D. Goody. a mining man
of Osceola. is demonstrating what
energy and little money can do
in reclaiming the desert. Mr..
Gondy has located ESQ acres in
Spring valley. on the main road
about four miles from OsceOla.
Mr.. Goody has sunk two wells,
which by pumping will supply
sufficient water to irrigate fifty
acres Of land, which is now being
broken up and fenced. A reser
voir is alse being constructed
which will store sufficient water
to irrigate a much larger acreage
than will he cultivated dur ing the
present year. The land which is
being reclaimed is easily and
chesply prepared for cultivation.
Aside from grain crops Mr..
Goody will plant fruit trees OF
various kinds, and within few
years i'll have an ideal ranch.
Mr.. Goody is making the first
effort in Spring valley To reclaim
the desert by pumping water. His
success, will doubtless be folded by
many others who have filed loca.
tionS in the valley.
At Shoshone, in the southern
end of Spring valley, are many
springs. the flow from which covers
several hundred acres of ground,
creating large sloughs and lakes
where the water remains for the
entire year. II would seem that
this water should be used for ir-
rigating purpoes, and by pumping
plants elevating it to the foothills
nearby, at slight cost, it could be
made to reclaim several thousand
acres Of land upon which only sage
brush is grown ut the present time.
The holdings of the Nevada Land
and Irrigation Company, are
located about twenty miles south
west from ,Shoshone. This com.
pany is now preparing to reclaim
10000 acres of land under the
Carey act, by an extensive pump
ing system If this enterprise proves
a success, wEi,h it undoubtedly
will, the same system could also
be used at Shonsheore " 18th like

.ICEBERGS CAUSE
MANY. WRECKS

A New York dispatch of the
10th says that icebergs. such rs
the one that sank the Titanic, are
one Of three sources of peril to
vessels navigating the North
Atlantic. The others are fog and
derelicts. The iceberg menace
has been greater this spring than
in recent years. T.
In the last fifty years there
have been twelve disasters for
which ieebergs we're responsible.
A majority occurred off New
Foundland and the Grand Banks,
near the Titanic's grave. t"
The drift of ice this spring has
been farther south than for years.
Vessels arriving. here and abroad
have reported ice fields extending
far down into, the southern track
and shippers have told of being
shut in BY icesasl far as they could
see on every side of the horizon.
The size: of the bergs that have
been en- "ountered recently varies
greatly but according to reliable
report, bergs reaching from 60 to
100 feet to the top of its walls,
with pinnacles and .spires extend.
ing to height of $50 feet II
more, have not been unusual
Below the water, some of these
giant bergs extend to probably 300
feet.

OWNERS OF CLAIMS
WAIT FOR ACTION

An investigation in local circles
disdoses the fact that the recent
rulings Of the interior department
at Washington in the matter of
patenting mining claims already
are having an adverse effect upon
the industry. says the Salt Lake
Tribune. The position assumed
bv the desk man at the national
capital to the effect that a claim
must be lite less than a positively
developed mine before patent
can be obtained is holding up
numerous applications for patents
in Utah, and this means the ces-
satinn Of further operations in
many instances until the question
has been decided definitely. 1t is
understood that the department
has been given an opportunity to
review. recent decision, and until
a final understanding is given ont no
effort likely will be made by
western claim owherst to attempt
to secure the protection of thu
government patent. Should the
final decision be anything like the
rulings of which the western min
ing industry has complained so
bitterly during the past week or
two, concerted move will he
made by everyone interested in
the welfare of the western
country to secure immediate and
adequate relief from con gress.
A Salt Lake attorney, who has
had experience in the United
States patert business, sa id yester
day tn t the recent rulings at.
Washington had been inspired by
two probable things, one being the
conservation movement which
seeks to retard the growth of the
west in behalf of posterIty and
which is in the hands of eastern
men who largely a:e ignorant of
western conditions; the other being
the fact that they were brought
into play 10 counteract the actions
of certain big interests which we're
trying to hog valuable western
land on the strength eff slight
mineral showings.
"But when officials of the gov
ern ment carry the point So far as
to include legitimate applications
within this fraudulent classifica
ton they pass beyond all bounds of
conservation and common sense,
asserted this attorney.
when ground is located within
mineral district. when neighbour
ing properties have demonstrated
their mineral wealth and when the
ground in question is absolutely
valueless except for the sole pur-
pose of mining, the owner is
entitled to his patent when he has
complied with the positive law on
the subject. Under such condi-
tions the government ia the past
has granted patents and it is up
not only to the west, but all parts
of the country directly interested
in the mining industry to see to it
that the relief sought and which
in all logic is due must be secured"
The partial paralysis Of the
mining industry already noted can
only be emphasized as the time
drags with the conditions as they
now arr. There is hardly q COM
pany in the west not affected
adversely by the rulings; for the
unpatented claim holdings through
out the west are extensive and
there is, a question now IL anyone
can even locate mineral ground
