New Land pevelopments

If the reservoir shall be increased
to 100000 acre feet capacity it will
be to meet the demands of new land,
as much of the original construction
will be supplemental supply for
areas now in cultivation. However,
there are important new tracts that
will be represented in the original
storage, although having no connec-
ton with any of the other irrigation
districts or companies. They Will
have to finance themselves, and one,
in the Pocatello section, has already
authorized its bonds.
The Bruneau project is another
possibility. Sunnyside is another,
although the economics of the situa-
ton, as well as physical obstacles,
are used as arguments against it so
far as the American Falls reservoir
is concerned. 1t is pointed out that,
even if water could be brought to
the Sunnyside from American Falls
at cost the land would stand, the
Bruneau would remain forever a
desert and the water from the Sal
mon drainage, which more naturally
belongs to areas north of the Snake,
would have no means of application.
However, these are problems for
the future. The first thing is the
reservoir itself. without storage, no
more reclamation is possible in our
state.

WEEK SEES GRAIN

Revival of Export Demand
Helps to Overcome Part of
New Low Records.

CHICAGO, June 28.-Smashing Of
low price records for the season has
been witnessed almost daily In the
wheat market this week. but revival
Of export demand has partly over
come the effect. The sharpest break

ment Of q heavy failure on the New

with q week ago, wheat this morning
was to sh lower. corn V to ~
UP, oats u to Y OF and provisions

Opinions expressed by Secretary
Wallace of the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture that low prices
for farm products were largely due
by bears as a ground for selling
wheat. and then the shipment OF the
first car Of new wheat from Okla
homa this year was made tho basis
Of further selling movement. Rains
in the northwest. where drought had
emphasis to bearish sentiment, and
SO. too, did the fact that crop reports
from the southwest were less un-
favorable than for some time previous
had been the rule.
Attacks on trading methods alleged
to have been practiced here were
asserted in some quarters to have
been largely responsible for subse-
quent breaks in the price OF wheat,
but the breaks referred to followed
much more closely the news Of an
unlooked-for important suspension In
wall street. Meanwhile estimates
That the probable yield Of wheat in
Europe this season has been reduced
25,0oo,0o0 to- 100000 bushels by bad
weather helped to account for the
timely renewal of export demand, and
pulls were also aided by unusual
absence OF hedging against new win
ter wheat.

more time in which to reduce freight rates. Ap-
parenty it is agreed that every state in the union
is entitled to cheaper rates for twice the length
of haul, than Arizona The state corporation COM
mission evidently has reached an agreement with
the railroads in that the railroads agree to reduce
the rates If they be given until 1924 to arrange
matters Two pOStponementS are as good a
victory The state corporation commission has
now agreed to wait until July 1st before the rail-
roads make reduction on grain rates. Grain rates
affect Phoenix mainly. If you will note the
charges made against railroads by the corporation
commission on rates of numerous commodities in
another column, might wonder why there is
any delay in making railroads play square and
not discriminate against Arizona.
The charges made by state corporation commits
sion against unjust discrimination in Arizona

conclusively that Arizona is not and has never
been, honestly represented by her own officials.
