IRRIGATION has added more wealth to the country in the last ten yours than any three of the largest resources combined. Thousands of acres, pf worthless land have been reclaimed and some of this land has sold for the highest prices ever paid for horticultural or agricultural laud. IRRIGATION will reclaim "the desort," G500 acres will becvcloped into n vast orchard district. "Tho desert" when irrigated will prove to bo tho best orchard land in tho PiOguo Rivoi" Valloy. IRRIGATION will make "tho PvOguo Rivor Valley famous for its berries. Tho largest yields in thenoxti'ow years will come from "the desort." ' IRRIGATION will add thousands of acres to tho producing area of tho Roguo ' River Valley, and in thoso now districts there will bo no crop failure, for irriga tion is a guaranteo of bountiful yields, and is real crop insurance for tho growor. IRRIGATION iu tho Willamette Valley has increased production from sixty to three hundred por cent. It will do the samo in tho Roguo River Valloy. IRRIGATION will double tho population of Medford and tho Roguo Rivor Valley in tho next few years. New homes will bo established. Orchards will bo planted on lands that havo never boon productive "Tho desort" will bo redeemed and a thousand families will bo added through this development.
