stands pledged to poiicy of reclaim
ing all reclaimable arid lands of the
west. We have seen no indications in
the southwest Of a spirit of renuncia-
ton of the Colorado basin project nor
will there be such spirit of renuncia-
ton That gigantic project will be
built by government aid and under
government authority Secretary of
the Interior Fall so declared at the rel
cent southwestern conference at Riv-
erside, California.
With that large work going forward
in the southwest, the Pacific north
west would be foolish to abandon its
purpose of carrying forward the fuller
development of its irrigation re-
sources.
We have in Washington, according
to the report of the state hydraulic
engineer a total potentiality of re-
claimable irrigable lands for which
water is available 2,526,6 acres. This
includes the Columbia Basin project,
which comprises 1,753, 900 acres under
gravity and $1,000 acres by a slight
pumping lift above the ditch or total
OF 1,S44,OO0 acres. The question be-
fore the people of the northwest is
whether they will forfeit for all time
the reclamation of 73 per cent of the
total irrigable area of this state and
be content with the ultimate irriga-
ton Of 27 per cent. That is what will
follow if effort should cease at this
time for the Columbia Basin project:
for the water supply cannot be held
for an abandoned project. Even now
private water power interests are lay
ing claim to it.
Spokane is willing to leave the feast
bility of this great work to the judg-
ment of MajorG General George w. Goe-
thals, the man who built the Panama
canal. If he should pronounce the
project impracticable, our interest in
it will cease. If, on the other hand.
he shall pronounce it feasible and
worthy of being carried to the atten-
ton of the nation, we shall continue
to press it with all the energy and en-
thusiasm at our command.

Spokane has consistently supported
all worthy reclamation projects, it is
puzzled to understand why it should
be attacked in any quarter for its sac
rificing efforts to support the state
government and help to save nearly
100000 acres of fertile land from re-
version to the perpetual desert.
We can not assent to the narrow
opinion that federal reclamation of
the arid lands of Washington should
be practically confined to part of a
single valley in the state. That is not
the way that progress was brought in
the past to the Pacific northwest. We
do not believe that it was ever seri-
ously proposed before that the trans
continental railroads for example,
should not be built, or even started
until all the possible local railroads in
the Pacific northwest had been built;
or that construction should have been
at Seattle, Tacoma and Port
land because the growth of those cities
would interfere with the growth of
smaller places.

Spokane's Attitude to the
Columbia Basin Project

In order that there may be no mis-
understandings with respect to Spo-
kane's position toward the reclama-
ton of the arid lands of the Pacific
northwest, the Spokane Chamber of
Commerce have issued the following
statement:
Our position is well expressed in a
recent telegram from Mr., E. F. Blaine.
Official representative of the Western
States Reclamation association at
Washington and one of the authors of
the McNary-Smith bill. Mr.. Blaine
says:
"At Yakima, Wenatchee and Seattle
have strongly urged pressing all of
our projects to the front that the other
states might not Guido us and thereby
gain undue advantage. Keeping pro-
iects in the limelight will aid and not
hinder the passage of the McNary-
Smith bill. If all states of the west
get in and boost no one project will
be started to the detriment of others.
Am favorable to state and national
aid in Investigating all projects"
If any other community in the Pa
'cifc northwest has given more freely
of its labor, its thought and money
whether to the Western States Recla-
nation association, the Northwestern
Reclamation league, the McNary-Smith
bill or to the states projects we shall
be glad to see the evidence of such
support and to express to that COM
munity our sincere and cordial ap-
probation and praise.
Spokane has attacked no worthy
reclamation project, and will not 1t
will help all meritorious projects in
the northwest, including the Column
bia Basin project, Notwithstanding that
it is evident that it's development will
benefit the coast cities more than Spo-
kane.
The Columbia Basin enterprise is
not a Spokane project. 1t is the
states project, initiated three years
ago by Governor Lister and E. F.
Blaine, then chairman of the state pub
lie service commission and now direc-
D. c., for the McNary-Smith bill. The |
legislature, on recommendation of |
Governor Lister, appropriated 100000 |
and created the official Columbia |
Basin survey commission, with Mar |
vim E. Chase, state hydraulic engi- |
neer, as chairman, Professor o. L. |
Waller, head of the department of en-
cheering at the state college, and E. |
F. Benson, state commissioner of agri-
culture as three of it's five members.
At the next session the legislature
appropriated $4,000 additional, and
under the new administrative code put
the project under Dan A. Scott, head
OF the states department Of conserva-
ton and development.
Spokane has given this inspiring
state project friendly support, as 1t
has, given and is giving all other meri-
torious projects friendly support. AS

COWS INCREASE
FAT PRODUCTION
Cow Testing Association Re-
ports Show Yearly
Increase.

Dairymen belonging to the nine COW
testing associations in the state, made
an increased profit of $2593 during the
month OF January over the same
month last year. This increase in re-
ceipts came from a gain in butterfat
production of 2.S pounds per COW,
which was accomplished by the use of
better dairy practices put into effect
by reason of the association member
ship
The average yield of milk reported
TO Frank w. Kehrli, extension dairy
specialist of the state college from the
2437 COWS on test, was 704 pounds per
COW during the month. Butterfat pro-
auction per COW amounted to an aver
age of 30.5 pounds or an increase for
each of the 2437 COWS in the associa-
ton of 2.S pounds over the yield for
January, 1921. This yield makes a
total gain of 1924 pounds of fat, which
is selling at the present time for SO
cents per pound.
Figuring the 1924 pounds of butter
rat at the present selling price of SO
cents per pound, the dairymen in the
association cleared $2593 from the use
OF better methods Another feature
OF this gain, was the fact that it was
made over better than average pro-
duction, since the cows on test last
year were from closely culled herds
and represented yields from good pro-
ducing COWS.

had over a hundred tons of manure
going to waste behind his barn.
The production of high-yielding va
rieties of oats for various conditions
has been the principal problem in con-
nection with the breeding of spring
and winter oats during the past year
by the United states department of
agriculture in cooperation with state
agricultural experiment stations The
Idamine, a high-yielding, pure-line Sc
lection from Silvermine, developed at
the Aberdeen Qdaho) sub-station, was
first distributed in 1921, when several
hundred bushels were available. This
oat should prove popular generally for
growing on irrigated lands in Idaho
and adjoining states.
Who ever heard of the farmers wife
going on strike, yet when you look at
the equipment she has to work with,
you wouldn't blame her for striking
The early Matched chicks are the
most vigorous and make the profitable
winter layers.
Are you letting the fireless cooker,
dish drainer, mop wringer or a dozen
other labor saving devices help you
save time? If not, why?
If the women in testing circles can
save nearly a weeks time by using
labor saving devices in the home
others can do so if they but try.
Many big manufacturing concerns
are advertising more now than during
the prosperous times. Farmers with
products on their hands, might do
likewise.
