SCOTT Qen'l Pass'r Agent, T0RTLAND, OREGON r IRRIGATION IRRIGATION is tho science of giving a plant just as much moisture as it needs, and just exactly when it needs it. IRRIGATION has added moro wealth to the country in tho last ten years than any three of the largest resources combined. Thousands of acres of worthless land have been reclaimed and some of this land has sold for tho highest prices ever paid for horticultural or agricultural land. IRRIGATION will reclaim "tho desert," 6300 acres will bo doveloped into a vast orchard district. "Tho desert" when irrigated will prove to bo tho best orchard land in tho Rogue River Valley. IRRIGATION will make the Roguo River Valley famous for its borries. Tho largest yields in tho next few years will como from "the desert." IRRIGATION will add thousands of acres to the producing area of tho Roguo River Valley, and in theso new districts thoro will bo no crop failure, for irriga tion is a guarauteo of bountiful yields, and is real crop insurance for tho grower. IRRIGATION in tho Willamette Valloy has increased production from sixty to three hundred por cent. It will do tho samo in tho Roguo River Valloy. IRRIGATION will doublo tho population of Mcdford and tho Roguo River Valloy in tho noxt fow years. New homos will bo established. Orchards will be planted on lands that havo novcr boon productive cTho desert" will bo redeemed and a thousand families will bo added through this dovolopmont.
