It has come with the new things of modem science, although irrigation is as old as history itself. IRRIGATION has added more wealth to the country in the last ten years than any three of the largest resources combined. Thousands of acres of worthless land has been reclaimed and some of this land has sold for the highest prices ever paid for horticultural or agricultural land. IRRIGATION has revived the industry of fruit raising. Commercial orchards in the irrigated districts have made the records of the world. Apples from the irrigated dis tricts have commanded higher prices than those from any other district. No district in the east can compete with western irrigated fruit. IRRIGATION is being introduced in the Willamette Valley.- Government tests have shown that during1 the months of July and August the rainfall measures less than one inch. This is not sufficient for successful crop develop ment. This lack of rainfall retards the yield that ample moisture would guarantee. Conditions are very much the same in the Rogue River Valley. IRRIGATION in the Willamette Valley has increased pro duction from sixty to three hundred per cent. It will do the same in the Rogue River Valley. IRRIGATION is the science of giving a plant just as much moisture as it needs, and just exactly when it needs it not a deluge after it has drunk its fill, nor a sip when it is dying from the lack of water. IRRIGATION will reclaim "The Desert." 6500 acres will be developed into a vast orchard district. "The Des ert," when irrigated will prove to be the best orchard land in the Rogue River Valley. IRRIGATION will make the Rogue River Valley famous for its berries. The largest yields in the next few years will come from "The Desert." IRRIGATION, will add thousands of acres to the produc ing area of the Rogue River Valley, and in these new dis tricts there will be no crop failure, for irrigation is a guar antee of bountiful yields, and is real crop insurance for the grower. IRRIGATION will make new conditions in the Rogue River Valley. It will help to reduce the high cost of living.' Vegetables will be raised in abundance. Irrigation will make it possible. We will buy our "truck" from the irri gated gardens and no longer be dependent upon the Cali fornia markets. IRRIGATION will double the population of Medford and the Rogue River Valley in the next few years. New homes will be established. Orchards will be planted on lands that have never been productive. "The Desert" will be redeemed and a thousand families will bo added through this development. IRRIGATION is the wonder of the age. If you are not familiar with this great work which is going forward in the vast desert wastes of our country, you are lagging at the tail of tho procession of modern progress. You should take a thrip through Idaho, Utah, Colorado, Montana, Washington, Texas, Arizona, California or New Mexico. You should carefully examine the great development, tho big plans of government and private corporations for re clamation, the gardens in the desert, the splendid unde niable success of irrigation, and we aro certain that you will agree with us that the Rogue River Valley will be big ger, better and vastly more productive as soon as general irrigation has been fully established.
