DEMAND RISES
IN NEBRASKA
FOR IRRIGATION

LINCOLN, Neb. WR)-Many Ne
braska farmers are talking irriga-
ton as practical method OF
fighting the drought and lesser dry
years.
They noTe that the irrigated
North Platte Valley OF western
Nebraska expects to produce oO-
bushel corn, a Igood llgar beet
harvest and other crops, despite
the worst drouth known to TINS
state.
Robert H. Willis, chief of the
state bureau of irrigation, says an
increasing number of farmers are
using pump irrigation in eastern
Nebraska where the lliall ~
other years was sufficient.
Irrigation, Willis pointed out, Is
possible only when water is avail
able and when the land is not too
hilly.
Dry land farmers of Box Butte
and Cheyenne counties in the west
are petitioning federal officials for
funds for irrigation experiments.
OF Nebraska's SO counties, ~
are classified as drought areas. The
free counties are Nemaha, only
eastern county not listed; SCOTS
Bluff and Kimball in the western
panhandle; Grant, which, fringes
the panhandle, and Mcpherson,

When we came here in July everything was
