GROWTH OF THE NORTHWEST.

There are very few people indeed
who have any conception OF the rapid
growth of the value OF farm products
throughout the states of the north
west during the past fifty years, and
the figures as presented are astonish-
ing even to those who have partially
made a study of this question. We
are all prone to be discouraged as
the wears go by and we see few ad-
ditional acres of land put under cul-
tivation with a corresponding sight
increase in production of farm pro-
ducts. but we fail to take into con-
sideration the increases among our
neishbors. and how these little in
creases help to make up the wonder
ful total increase OF the various sec
tions.
Even I'm the little area embraced
I'm the North Side tract, the total
value of the farm products this year
as compared to last will more than
double. The same may be said or
MANY other sections In the state. Flu
ture years will show much larger
increase. as the land in this section
Is lust beginning to be cultivated ana
with the entire segregation under
cultivation, 1t is utterly Impossible
IN even estimate the value OF the
farm products that will be produced
ON this tract alone.

of the value of farm products we

ing faith that when the bottom OF
the reservoir has been thoroughly
cultivated, being put into alfalfa and
so kept for number of years until
the ground is full of roots and fb-
rous matter, that then the reservoir
may be made to hold a limited
amount of water, but sufficient to be
very serviceable in case of accident
to the canal or during periods Of
short water. AS one of the engineers
put 1t, "the soil In the bottom of the
reservoir at the present time is abb
solutely free from any fibrous mat
ter and to make 1t hold would be like
attempting to plaster a house with
out putting hair in the plaster"
There has got to be something to
knit the soil together and make
bottom that will stand reasonable
amount of pressure. This can only
be accomplished by time and there
is no immediate assurance that even
this method will prove effective.
Therefore, the recommendation will
be made for the construction of a
new section of canal around the res
ervoir and it is to be hoped that the
Bondholders' Committee will find
themselves able to authorize this
work to be put in this fall.
Mr.. Shepherd, in company with
Consulting Engineer Wiley and Sup
ervising Engineer Weymouth Of the
Reclamation Service, left Tuesday
evening, and are now at Jackson
Lake reservoir inspecting the work
OF construction with view to push
ing it forward without unnecessary
delay in the hope of securing an
abundant storage for next year. At
the present rate of progress on this
work we are assured of at least 100.-
900 acre feet of new water for 1915,
and 1t is the hope of these gentlemen
that enough more can be accomplish
ed to increase the storage to at least
10000 acre feet for 1916. AS soon
as Mr.. Shepherd is reasonably sure
as to what can be depended upon for
next year due notice will be given to
all entrymen so that they can plan
the 1916 campaign accordingly.

Land Board Adopts New Methods
in Making Farm Loans.

At his suggestion the State Land
Board has granted State Land Com
missioner Day authority to put into
effect new system for the granting
OF farm loans of state funds, and Mr..
Day announced Monday that he has
commenced working out the plan.
He said he expected to put 1t into
effect within a short time.
Under that plan the state is to be
districted, and Mr.. Day said he ex-
poets to divide the state into six dis
tricts Applications for loans will be
segregated as to the districts from
which they come. and each district
will receive attention only every 60
days.
THE new plan will be much more
systematic than the present one,
said Mr.. Day. at will save untold
duplication of effort and give just
as prompt, If not more prompt, ser
vice to the applicant.
1--WE will give considerable pub
licity to the schedule of the time fol
granting loans to each district. The
farmer who wants a loan will thus bt
enabled to know at what time the
state land board will act on his ap
plication.
Every 60 days each district viii
receive attention. The appraiser
will visit it and act upon every appli
cation for a loan which has been re
ceived from that district. The ex
pense of appraisement will be ma
terially cut, and with this system II
effect l believe 1t will be possible t
see opportunities for and put into ef
feet still further economies"
Mr.. Day said he was considerin
several other changes in the admin
, istration methods of the office. bu
that they would be approved by tn
board before being put into effect.

CANAL WORK BEING DONE
AND CONTEMPLATED
Nothing to Be Left Undone That Will
Insure the Water Supply
for 1915.

No time is being lost by the Com
pany in making improvements and
doing some necessary work on the
main canal. During the time the
water has been off recently Water
master Rinker has been making ca
nal improvements, cutting off pond
ed areas, etc, having a large force of
men and teams at work, thereby
making considerable saving in wa
ter losses. 1t is understood that the
engineering department of the North
Side Company will recommend to the
Bondholders' Committee the con-
struction of a canal around the Je-
rome Reservoir. eliminating the ex-
cess loss in the bottom of that reser-
voir. If this is accomplished it will
be very valuable addition to the ir-
rigation system, enabling water to be
delivered from the Miner dam to
bitches below the Jerome Reservoir
in much shorter space of time than
is now required. 1t is with great re-
luctance that the Bondholders' Com
mittee have come to the conclusion
that the Jerome Reservoir cannot be
made servicable in the near future.
A great deal of study and expense
has been put upon the resirvoir in
the hope of finding some way of max
ing 1t hold water, but up to the pres
ent time Lo satisfactory method has
been discovered. The reservoir
however, will not be abandoned but

Last Note of President Wilson Not
Well Received In Germany.

The second note from the United
States to Germany touching upon its
policy OF submarine warfare was for
warded to Berlin last week. but its
reception there has not been such as
was hoped for by President Wilson.
While, OF course, no intimation has
come from official sources relative to
the reception OF the note, the news
papers or Germany would indicate
that the note was most unfavorably
received A Berlin dispatch says:
The Vossische Zeitung in leng-
thy editorial says:
The refusal to accept Germany's
practical proposition to protect Amer
lean passengers shows an absolute
lack OF readiness to understand the
German standpoint The principle
that belligerent states must protect
neutrals is untenable if applied In
the fullest sense. as il would mean
abdictation TO neutral states. 1t is
true that belligerents must respect
neutral rights, but only provided
neutrals do everything TO prevent
their citizens going into situations
where protection is impossible.
Victory over the enemy is the su-
preme law OF every belligerent.
Those who render more difficult this
task than does international law
support the enemy. The war on land
has shown clearly that restrictions
are necessary. A person who remains
within beleaguered fortress or who
walks into gunfre zone risks his
life without the right of protection
from his home government.
The same also is true of naval
warfare In spite OF the mistaken
phrase freedom OF the seas. 1t is
granted that the ocean is free fol
peaceful travel, but naval battles also
take place on 1t. Neutral ships sail
ing between fighting battleships rur
