It secures an assured competency for one's labor, with environment ap pealing to the social desire and per mitting of such attractiveness and harmony In rural life as satisfies tho artistic sense. Tho conditions arc attracting and should attract the best brain and brawn of tho East, as witness the piesent population of the seven southern counties of California, esti mated at six hundred thousand, as compared with a population of thlrty-flvo thousand in 1870, which date marks approximately the era of larger Irrigation development. The same ratio of increase is also ob served throughout the other irri gated areas, accompanied, too, by re turns justifying the rapid growth. The southern counties, with about two hundred and fifty thousand acres irrigated the basis of princi pal production are supporting a population of six hundred thousand people. They have an assessed val uation of nearly $5,000,000 and are marketing products from the irri gated area of more than $35,000,000 annually, or about $150 per acre per annum. The great irrigation works in pro cess of construction by the National Government and the arrangement of details calculated to build up small farms Is the greatest piece of pro gressive and sound economic legisla tion of recent years. Its guarantee of profit to the farmer, of improved social conditions and attractive homes, will stimulate the "back to the farm" movement and make for the preservation of the mental, moral and physical excellence of the people. glmo have Increased 94 per cent.

How rapidly the industrial wealth of the Pacific Coast and Southwest ern States have grown In 'recent years Is shown by comparisons of traffic figures In the first and last annual reports of the Southern Pacific Com pany, issued by the present manage ment of this property. As an indi cation of tho growth of the territory served, the unprecedented increase in the transportation of various pro ducts over all lines of the Southern Pacific is an impressive exhibit when considered as an index of railroad development. This table has been prepared to show the increase in the transporta tion of products of the farm, ranch, mine, forest and factory.
