Reclamation Is A
Hobby With Sinn,s

In a recent interview with Mitt
Simms, candidate for the demo-
cratic nomination for governor,
as to his views on the important
question of the reclamation of
the arid lands of Arizona and
other western states, Mr.. Simms
said;
Reclamation by means of ir-
rigation has been almost a hobby
with me. From my own exper-
fence as a farmer and irrigator,
| am convinced that Arizona has
a great reclamation future before
her.
THE successful examples of
reclamation already established
in our State by government and
private means, leads me to be-
lieve that we are only at the dawn
of period of great constructive
effort. In our State we have sew
eral irrigated projects of major
Importance to be constructed,
most of them having been given
a meritorious qualification by the
government.
Besides these we have a large
number of smaller projects which
have great promise and which
mean so much to the upbuild of
agriculture in the State.
1T is almost unbelievable that
Arizona should import farm pro-
ducts from near by states when
she has the ability to produce
those products herself, from her
undeveloped resources. 1t seems
that the reclamation effort has
been too local in it's character.
We find one locality making a
determined effort to the exclusion
of the rest"
