We have had few greater than Eyarts Choate and Root. But all of them would have gone further with their

America Leads in Irrigation.
Washington Star.)

 All the dry parts of the world send their irrga- ! tion engineers to Western country to get ideas Even great engineers learn from our solid old
 ccessu farmers of Colorado and other States of the former Great American Desert.
 i In the days of Horace Greeley's "Go West young man gospel, great numbers of pioneering people trekked their dubious ways into the untried West The Great American Desert was then no joke. The people found such lack of rain that stock raising upon the hardy buffalo grass was about the only Iactyity open for them. Then, here and there, the more enterprsing farmers, with the aid of only a tcommon leveer instrument, few ploughs and picks land shovels laid out and dug intricate and very oessfu irrigation systems Horse sense was their foUy university training for this engineering HVOrk. In the section about Greeley, Colorado (named Fin honor of Horace Greeley, of the finest IT. of irrigation systems in the world to be found lal planned and carried by the original coonists Iof 1870

 In recent years official commissions from Aus tralia South Africa, India China and various other parts of the world have visited Greeley and other tions of the West to study their systems irriga- tion carrying back valuable information for their own desert lands.
