Water WITHIN
Reach OF ALL

Willis,on, n. D., July 2.-This is the
first year the Williston Irrigation pro-
jcct has ben properly utilized or ,ap-
preciated by the water users. Under
the more reasonable terms arranged
with the Interior Department at
Washington the water is now within
the reach of more people. About g.
900 acres complied with all the pro.
visions OF the law and we're ready for
the water when it was turned on June
). Four of the eight boilers are used
in pumping the water from the Mis-
souri, through the canals. On the land
now being irrigated alfalfa Is almost
the exclusive crop. Here land is be.
ing prepared and will be ready for
water during the month of July. Al.
ready many farmers are planning TO
become water users next year. The
lack Of rain has made the irrigation
PROJECT nor generally appreciated
than before.
There is more water being pumped
this year than in any former season
and with a smaller force. Outside the
men caring for the boilers and secur-
ing the coal two men run the inside
work at the Office. The water master,
a ditch rider and his helper control
the distribution Of the water and the
operation of the plant is now down
to a most economic and workable
ba sis. "
Some Of the alfalfa Is already be-
ing cut and the valley presents a most
attractive appearance when viewed
from the highways along the hills.
The enthusiasts for the irrigation
project are more confident than ever
that the plan is the ultimato means
of a great alfalfa, stock raising and
dairying belt established here.
