Boosts Crop Value to
$1,751,e5o,Oo0

washington. D. c.. Aug. 5.-Since
The passing Ct the Reclamation AcC
on June II. 1902, the U. S. Bureau OF
Reclamation has constructed l3'
dams in various sections Of the coun-
try which have made available TO
farmers, through irrigation, 3,22S,o3O
acres of arid land.
Last year saw 40354 irrigated farms
with population Of 1886 located
on these projects; 213 towns ana
cities with a population Of E72,7Z3;
683 schools, 72a churches and 100
banks with deposits of $l3A,26l.l70.
In 1880 the total value OF crops pro-
duced on the area irrigated by SOW
eminent reclamation projects was
sll9,G6l 800. Since 1906. the first year
water was made available for irriga-
ton, the cumulative value of crops
grown on this land amounts to more
than Sl,761 $4,000.
All OF these figures serve to Illus
trate the efforts of the government
to utilize every inch of available land
for farming. Work Of cor -tructlng

for thousands. and has meant the

When the Reclamation Act was
first passed it provided that funds
from sale of public lands in l6 of the

in financing construction AS the work
progressed, the amount realized from
the land sales was found inadequate.
Then Congress passed an act which
provided for the sale of mineral

made a tour of his district, which in
cludes all or parts Of dozen counties,
and has arranged to have men in var

hands.
Further cooperation is sought in
placing the men on specific farms
when they answer the calls for la
borers.
May said there has not yet been
much demand for laborers, since
threshing has not begun on wide
scale. He will maintain his office in
