IRRIGATION FOR FLATHEAD.
(kalispeiI Inter I.ake.D

It is the opinion of the Inter Lake
that F'lathead county will not reap the
full fruits OF it's productivity until
after our farmers have adopted ii sys-
tenn of artificiallN supplying their land
with moisture. In other words, we
must rrigate in lt,lathead county be-
fore we can absolutely he sure of n
crop each successive season.
It is true that this county is blessed
with more precipitation than a great
MANY parts of the state, and that the
rainfall most seasons is sufficient to
insure comparatively good crops, but
there occasionally comes a season
when moisture is greatly needed, and
If tho farmer had water availa BILE il
would be the means of converting Il
crop shortage into n bountiful yield.
There is scarcely a season, in fact,
when the growing crops could not be
materially improved by irrigation.
The advantage of an irrigating kys-
tenn is clearly demonstrated this year.
Crops that were entirely dependent on
the graciousness of Jupiter Puvius TO
provide them With life giving mois

but in all instances where water was
turned on by means af irrigatins
bitches during the dry spell much
larger crops are being harvested
If this means anything it means
that Flathead county must eventually
be brought under Il system of irriga-
tion. The Inter Lake predicts that
in the future there will be a network
of irrgating bitches in this county,
and that farrOinu will ba dona Seian-
