IS STATES ELECT GOVERNORS
SAME time As PRESIDENT
By Ihs Assoc,ated Press

~ ~ A1eVCN0tCu ETE84
CHICAGO. May 1.-Thirty-hve
states viii elect governors next fail
ct the time when the President and
vice President are chosen. Thirty
two United States senator's. to take
Office March 4, 1921, also are to DO
elected.
OF the governors whose terms K
pire next year twenty-one are Repub-
iicans and thirteen Democrats; while
seventeen of the thirty-twO senators
are Democrats and fifteen Republi-
cans.
The thirty-fve governorships to be
filled offer a wide ranse, both in terms
n salaries. Among the state exc
outives whose terms expire are Frank
o. Lowden, of Illinois, the highest
paid governor In the country: and s..
r. McKelvie, Of Nebraska, the poorest
paid. Mr.. Lowden receives $4,000
yearly for a four year term n Nc
Kelvie 50, 500 annually for two years.
Only twelve OF the ~thirty-five will
receive over $4,000 a year: and five
will be paid $4,000 or less.
Governor Coolidge, of Massachu-
sets. whose position carries a $4,000
salary. is the only governor in the
country elected for one year. All
other states have either two or four
year terms.
Territorial governors are better
paid than the average state executive
and two of the four are appointed
for indefinite terms. with the result
that they remain in Office US long, as
a rule, as the President who named
them.
Francis Burton Harrison. governor
general OF the Philippines. tops the
list of territorial executives with an
indefinite term and a $50. 900 yearly
salary. Arthur wager, Governor of
Porto Rico receives 5000 and is
appointed for an indefinite term. Gov
ernor Thomas Riggs. Jr.. of Alaska,
and c. J. Mccarthy, of Hawaii. each
received annual salaries of 1000 dur-
ing heir four year terms.

UNCLE SANS IRRIGATION PROJECTS
Past, Present and Future
Fl. o. Bishop in the Dearborn Independent


as may be deemed feasible and desir-
able to undertake, and that can be
completed within the limit of the re-
clamation fund as increased by the
amount herein provided, there is here
by authorized to be appropriated and
placed in the reclamation fund, from
time to time as estimates are submit
ted therefor, the sum of $250,000,-
600 to be expended under the terms
and conditions of the act commonly
known as the Reclamation Act and
acts amendatory thereof, and to be re-
paid as is by said act and amendments
thereto provided.
'"That in the expenditure of said
reclamation fund and in the under
taking of new projects the Secretary
of the Interior is authorized and di-
rected to enter into such agreements
for cooperation with states, counties,
duly authorized irrigation districts
and municipalities as he may deem
wise and advantageous, and prefer
ence shall be given by him to those
new projects in states where substan-
tial cooperation can. be had, if other
wise feasible and desirable"
There is not the least question but
that agriculture in the arid region
where irrigation is feasible has several
important advantages over that in the
humid region. The soils of the arid
region because of the very nature of
the case have generally not been
leached of their mineral plant foods
as have those in the humid regions,
and therefore they are usually much
richer in this respect being seldom or
never acid, as are soils in the humid
region. At times this quality has the
disadvantage of leaving the arid lands
charged with hurtful alkalies that sell
dom remain in the humid region be-
cause of their so1ubility, but where
the injurious salts do not prodominate
the general principle of abundance of
mineral plant food obtains and con-
stitutes a distinct advantage for soils
of the arid region over those of humid
regions.
There is much advantage in being
able to apply water to growing crops
at just the time and in just the guam
tity needed and to withhold it at will.
Where the water supply is ample this
constitutes very important advan-
tage in arid regions.
Another striking advantage is the
proponderance of clear days in an arid
region, where the absence of rainy
and cloudy weather affords much
larger percentage of sunshine than is
found in humid regions. As sunlight
is one of the most important essentials
of healthy plant growth, this advan-
tage is exceedingly valuable. Result
ing from these advantages, it appears
that the average gross product of agri-
culture crops on reclamation projects
is just about double the average yield
from non-irrigated lands in the coun-
try at large. The larger product OBJ
tainable per acre from irrigated lands
justifes and permits more careful
intensive cultivation which, with
The mirror., 1920-10-28

cNfV WIN A"NC HC"NC"b
favorable climate and controllable
water supply, yields more positive re-
suits than the same care in the humid
region.
This means that as much product
may be obtained from 40-acre tract
under irrigation as from the average
80-acre tract in humid sections. This,
of course, requires more labor per
acre, but much less labor in proper
ton to product. 1t permits and en-
courages intensive cultivation and
smaller holdings and consequently
greater Capitalization of population.
The result is that the isolation of
country life is to a large extent
eliminated, as the irrigating farmer
will have twice as many neighbors
within a given radius as his prototype
in the humid regions. The social ad-
vantages thus obtained react upon the
character of the people, the commun-
ities and other conditions characteris-
tic of irrigated regions, with a similar
effect.
Cooperation with his neighbors is
forced upon the irrigator because it is
usually impracticable for him to irri-
gate his land without such co-opera-
tion, the feasible irrigation projects
usually being in tracts of many thou
sands of acres accommodating thou
sands of families and giving rise to
towns and villages. This condition
stimulates the civic conscience and at
tention to public affairs of common
interest, so that the local governments
that grow up under such conditions
are ordinarily of a superior order and
controlled by a superior intelligence
on the part of the population living
Hereunder.
Arthur P. Davis, the director and
chief engineer of the United, States
Reclamation Service, is admittedly
the best informed man in America on
the subject of reclaiming land by irri-
CATION. Here is the comprehensive
way in which this irrigation genius
sums up the great reclamation work
done thus far by the Federal Govern
ment: "The full Importance of ma
tional irrigation cannot be measured
in dollars and cents. In the building
of new commonwealths in the arid
West the government is utilizing
largely its own undeveloped resources.
1t is creating opportunities for its citi-
zens to establish themselves in per-
manent homes in which patriotism,
loyalty and civic pride are bred and
fostered. The primary purpose of the
law was to create homes, and it is
not denied that its purpose has been
fulfilled richly and abundantly.
Viewed from this standpoint, national
reclamation has amply justified all its
exponents declared for it.
"Since 1902 the Reclamation Ser
vice has constructed the irrigation sys-
tenn completely to supply l,78O,OOO
acres of land. Also the capacious
reservoirs of the government are fur
nishing a supplemental supply of
stored water to a million additional
The mirror., 1920-10-28

acres in other projects, or a grand
total of 2,780,000 acres.
"On the government project lands
are 10000 families in independent
homes. The population in cities,
towns and villages in these govern
ment projects has been increased by
an equal number of families; that is
to SAY, on the 100000 acres re-
claimed there are now proftably en-
ployed and satisfactorily housed 400,-
600 people. The arguments for in
creasing and making permanent the
nations vitality, prosperity, and
growth by creating more homes of
this kind were never more forcible
and unanswerable than just now.
American people can not rightly claim
to have measured up to their oppor-
tunity until the deserts of the West
and the unused agricultural lands of
the remainder of the nation have been
replaced by vistas of prosperous farm
SteadS.
Measured by the yardstick of the
fnancier-the dollar results of
the Reclamation Service activities are
interesting.
'''As creator of wealth, its service
to the nation and the state has been
as great as in its principal task of
homemaking. Out of the uninhabited
and almost worthless desert it has
carved an empire of nearly 1000, 600
acres, Intensely cultivated, and pro-
ducing crops whose annual average
gross returns an acre are about dou-
bic those for the rest of the country.
Since the first government ditch
began turning its waters upon the
land in 1905 the crops produced upon
the reclaimed lands have had total
value of more than $250,00O,000.
The present annual crop returns, are
now more than $80,000,000, not in
cluding the value of crops grown on
the million acres outside of projects
which are supplied with stored water.
"The increase in land values has
been enormous. In 1902, the begin
ming 70 government irrigation, the
average value of the desert lands in
the projects did not exceed $40 an
acre. The total value, therefore, of
the 100000 acres in government
projects did not exceed $17,8OO,000.
Government irrigation has in
creased the value of the project lands
5000 an acre, or total of $356,000,-
600. 1t has increased the value of
the 100000 acres in other projects
by 500 an acre, or $1OO,OOO,OO0.
The increase in the value of land in
the cities, towns, and villages within
projects is easily $10O,0O0,00O, or
total increase in land values of $780,
100000, due to this work.
"In connection with the above sum-
mary no consideration has been given
to 1,138,000 acres of land included
in government projects which will be
irrigated when the engineering works
are completed, the present market
price of which has increased at least
$50 an acre by reason of this fact.
"The increase in the price received
for state lands included in the pro-
jects and now mostly disposed of was
at least $3,O00,000 of direct revenue
derived by the states.
