The
Klamath
Projeot
Tlio Klamath Project ii the name
that line been applied to tho reclama
tion of about 100,000 acres of land now
,,, miner i"o ovcriiow or the Klamath
llivcr ami of Lower Klamath Lake and Title Lake
mid tbo irrigation of about H'4,000 acrei of vallejr
IiiiiiI adjacent to the Klamath Itiver, alotiK tho course
of Lout Itiver and tho tributary portion of tbe great
plateau lyiutf chiefly in Klamath County, Oregon, but
aUo cmbraciiiK n part of HUkiyou and Modoo Coun
ties, California, a total area of 200,000 ncreB.
Thu 1'rojcct euibracet tho construction of a very
(treat milcaKu of canals, laterals and drainage canal
and will have its principal source in Upper Klamath
Luke. Clear Lake and Horsefly are reservoir aitea
where flood water will bo impounded and utilized for
irrigation of land included in the upper portion of
tho Project.
Work on tho main cuual was started in the Spring
of l!K)(i and the first unit of nine miles U now com
pleted. About 13,000 acres of land will be irrigated
from the first unit, the laterals for which are being
constructed under the supervision of the engineer!
having charge of the Project. I)y far tbe largest
proportion of the land under the first unit ia now in
sagebrush and must be cleared and broken in time
for croiis in tbe Spring of 1908. Work on the sec
ond unit is being done by the Government and em
braces nineteen miles of main canal and twenty-six
miles of laterals to furnish water to about 20,000
additional acres of land. Work on this unit will be
prosecuted as rapidly as possible.
Nearly one-half of the area to be irrigated ia now
under water to a depth of from one to fifteen feet
and will be reclaimed by a system of drainage to
lower the level of the rivers and lakes. A large part
of the swamp laud and practically all of the valley
land in the Klamath llasin are held in private own
ership and some in very large tracts which must be
sold in tracts of 1C0 acres or less under the regula
tions governing the perfection of a water-right.
KLAMATH'S For iu development and proa-
OREATE8T pority the Klamath Basin must have
NEED people, and tha right kind of people
at that. IU great need to intelli
gent, practical farmers, who understand the meaning
of intensified and diversified farming; men who will
buy land, not for speculative purposes, but with tha
idea of clearing off the sagebrush and making par.
manent and ofmlwiable homes. Bach men art boun4
to succeed. There to room for thousand of them.
Developing Sugar beets have been grown ex-
Various perimentnlly throughout the Klam-
Indjutriei nth Valley. The percentage of sugar
is high, as will be noted from the
following analysis made by the United States De
partment of Agriculture from beets grown near
Htignr iu beets, per cent., 21.7: sugar in juice, (per
cent., 24.1 ; coefficient of purity; 63.1.
Kxpirience has demonstrated that excellent as
pnrugim, onions and celery can be grown, tho tule
iuiids being very niniilar to those of tbe Sacramento
and Sun Joaquin Valleys of California, where such
vegetables arc so successfully cultivated. Through
out the world the reclaimed marshlands are the best
suited for the highest development of dairy inter
ests. There is no question that this will become a sugar
beet producing section and that a number, of facto
ries will be built and operated with the development
of tbe industry.
All kinds of fruit adapted to the temperate zone
thrive here apples, peaches, pears, cherries, prunes,
plums, apricots and nectarines do well, and small
fruits bear abundantly and of excellent quality.
There aro a great many small orchards throughout
the basin that prove the adaptability of the region
to the profitable production of fruit.
K. L. Smith, former president of the Oregon State
Hoard of Horticulture, gives it as his opinion that
the foothill lands arc specially adapted to apple
growing.
Cultivation of the potato has passed beyond the
experimental stage, the sandy loam of the uplands
producing them in great abundance.
Klamath County wheat, grown without irrigation,
took the premium at the New Orleans Exposition."
The most important forage crop is alfalfa, the soil
being peculiarly odaptcd to its growth.
Exoeas All landowners being required
Holding! Must to sell their excess holdings, there
Be Bold ' ts a largo area of good land for aale
at reasonable figures, prices rang
ing from about $15 to $35 for unimproved, and $20
to $50 per acre tor improved land. Land adjacent
to the principal towns commands burner prices. The
purchaser pays for the water right at a cost of about
$18 per acre to be paid for in ten equal annual in
stallmcnta without interest. This amounts to less
than the ordinary annual rental paid private ditch
companies. Some of the irrigators of Klamath Val
ley (and they are the most prosperous fanners) have
already paid out to such companies for water $60 per
acre and rwn no water. All of these companies have
been purchased by the Government and included in
the system. " '
No public lands will be open for settlement for
several years.
Climate The upland soil ia mainly a rich sandy
and loam of great uniformity and composed
Boil iargely of disintegrated and eroded lava
with au admixture of volcanio ash and
diatomaceous earth, the latter material of plant ori
gin, formed in the bottom of tho ancient sea which
covered the greater part of the Great Basin, and of
whioh Klamath Valley ia a northwesterly extension. -Such
soil, characteristic of many of the richest agri
cultural sections Of tho world, including much of
Italy and the groat plains of India, is extremely fer
tile, and of lasting productiveness. The lako and
tule landa are made up of a volcanio soil containing
muoh organic, matter, a vegetablo accumulation of
agea, and to of a poatty nature.
The olimate ia extremoly healthful and uot sovSre.
There ia rarely any Winter weather before tho latter
part of December, and but little zero weather during
the entire Winter. Tho annual precipitation to about
fifteen inches, with little rain during the Summer
monthe. ....
