or the immense agricultural area of
Utah. amounting to about 22,000,Q00
acres, only approximately 2,200,0 ,00e

West Half in Big Basin.
The western half Of the state lies
within the great basin, the soils hav-
ing been formed by the action of the
prehistoric Lake Bonneville. which at
ono time covered it, the washiugs from
the mountains being carried down into
the lake by the rivers and distributed
over the lake bottoms, thus forming

filled with high mountains and COW
cred with trees and nutritious grasses.
The eastern portion is covered
with soil formed in carly geological
days, when a shallow ocean covered
that part OF the state, and like the
soils found in the great basin, their
subsoils are virtually as fertile as the
top soils. 1t is an unquestIonable fact
that although Utah soils are of unsur-
passed fertility, the question of CON

proper methods of irrigation and con-
tinuous cropping with exhaustive crops

fertility, as scientific investigation has
already demonstrated that by proper
methods of tillage the fertility may be
indefinitely maintained.
1t is a well-known fact that if all
the river waters in the state were con-
served, the supply would suffice to ir-

Wells to Be Used.
1t is IN unquestiona fact that in
the very near future artesian wells and
water pumped from deep wells will be
most important factors in the re-
ciamation of Utah lands, and although
it is as yet unknown what portion OF
the land of the state will be irrigated
in this manner, it is reasonably Ger
tain that several hundreds of thou
sands of acres will be benefited. lrrl-
cation in the northern central portion
of the state is unnecessary for grow
ing grain crops on the high lands, as
the normal precipitation in that see
tion will average about fifteen inches
yearly. Although irrigation is prac-
ticed throughout the state, all portions,
excepting that lust mentioned, find IL
absolutely necessary TO use artificial
methods of watering, as such parts are
subjected TO Il normal annual preciPi-
tation Of from only five to ten inches.
The Utah irrigation data, which is
obtained from the report of the thir.
teenth census of the United States and
compiled by the local water resources
branch of the United States geological
survey, shows that the Green river
gauging station at Green River leads
the list in water discharge, the mean
annual run-off being 6,070,000 acre
feet for period Of eleven years; Bear
river gauging station located at Col
liston, second with 100000 acre-feet
for period Of twenty-five years, and

at Plain City. discharging annually
10000 acre feet. the period of record
